In one 3v3 game, I decided to fast expand as zerg. My teamate starts pinging all over the map, what follows...
him: what are you doing? me: FE into mutaling him: don't FE, nobody does that anymore me: ... are you serious? him: yea, only noobs hatch first ever me: have you ever heard of NesTea? him: i dont drink pop loser me: wow 3rd teamate: ROFL, what a noob him: stfu me: so, where do you read up on the latest 3v3 metagame? him: what the f*ck is a metagame? **right as he says this, he get's double 6 pooled by our opponents** him: see, if you hadn't FEd you could have protected me noob. me: *scans his base* .... where's your gateway?! him: I WAS GOING TO FAST EXPAND

i just played a coop game and wanted to canonrush the two ai's. my mate just said "hey" at the beginning and started a stupid standard building?! suddenly my stupid mate just started to kill all my buildings and probes and went on playing like i never was in the game...stupid mate of course i raged and asked him what this was all about and he just replied "would be cool to have an army now, right?"
well...i gotta admit i was the mate and i did this the first time today because i was in the mood for some coops to finish my sc2 session for today and i got 7(!) games in a row a partner who just canonrushed and turns an easy chilled game into some minutes of waste! watching their histories after the game seeing they almost do this every single game!!! i may have overreacted but we won anyway. and for the first time i was really mad because i just wanted to play a chilled normal game with a normal mate to end the day...
btw: did the coop really become a place for people just doing (not even well executed or trying to perfect) their canonrush/6pool/proxyrax, collecting their points and not even caring about the actual game anymore? if so...too bad
Well, they are obviously only doing the coops for the achievements. I don't know why they want the achievements, I am oblivious to why someone would want achievement points.
But I am also oblivious as to why you would want to play coop for fun, how is playing computer opponents more fun than playing actual human opponents? 0o
i never said it's more fun! atually i didn't say anything about fun?! i was just done at this day with my laddering, it was pretty late night and i was neither in the mood for costum games nor was a friend online. but i still wanted to play some relaxed games and since i played coops the last time in beta i decided to go for some again...
I was doing a 4v4, i had 3 expansions and one of my allies decided he wanted to expand but wanted a safe expansion, so he killed one of my expansions and took it using the logic that he would be useless if he hadn't expanded, and the other ones weren't safe. I pointed out that destroying my expansion in a game that he had done nothing made him worse than worthless. He then left the game.
Teammate: WTF Blue? Me: ? Teammate: You're such an idiot! Me: Why u mad? Teammate: I NEEDED YOUR HELP AND YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING Me: You never asked me to do anything. Teammate: I PINGED YOU AND YOU DIDN'T DO SHIT Me: You pinged everyone, not just me. No one wanted to help you, apparently.
*5 minutes later* Teammate: GO ATTACK!!! Me: Shut up.
I was going to vortex nuke with my friend and at that point I really wanted to just vortex nuke my own teammate.
In a 4v4 on Outpost, the protoss player I'm sharing the choke with goes mass cannons without any units in his base, needless to say the opponents just ignored it and went on killing us within 10 mins.

Ill start it off. Was playing a 2v2 last night. My teammate does nothing for the first 30 seconds (no mining nothing). He then lifts his cc and starts to move it towards my base.
Me: what you doing mate him: they know my position. i must change position. (bare in mind that this is 1 min in the game) me: Thats fairly pointless atm him: no easier to defend, they will never know where i am
1 minute later he proceeds to land his cc next to mine and starts mining from my patch
Me: wtf? (i then ping all the patches close by) Me: get your own mins lol
he lifts off again then lands next to my ramp, nowhere near any resources, then starts to long distance mine.
me: land here for gods sake (ping map) him: but its to hard to defend from there, i stay here, much easier me: is it easier because youve still not built any buildings or units (9 mins in)
he then goes afk. brilliant. Still won though which is all that matters. checked his profile after and hes got almost 300 games but only 20 wins. if he does that every game i can see why.

Playing the warzone map 2v2 with a random, at the beginning he annnounces he's fast expanding and then going for muta's.I think that's a grand idea, until i notice him expanding on the gold. about 6 minutes in 8 zealots walk past the expansion and just obliterate it. Him: Well, we've lost. Him: dont send those roaches it's suicide 20 seconds of kiting later... Him: oh, good one.
Proceeds to stick with mutas while they put half a dozen cannons in every mineral field and type INCOMING every time he see's anything on the minimap.

Good times.
I'm sooooooooooo going to do that next time i play SC2, what a baller strategy. Can't wait to see peoples reactions
Argh, just played the most annoying game. 4v4. me and a teammate proceed to destroy all the enemy bases, only for them to lift off one of the cc's. We then get attacked by our 2 teammates who said "haha and now we lose". annoying as hell

Oh, the LOL.
I came here because we were playing 3v3, us 3 zerg - they were 3 random. Without rush or anything. I get attacked first, obviously I get obliterated, but manage to hide my other hatch and the attack shifted to one of my mates. Now, obviously, I wanted to see why nobody helped me. One guy was making zerglings alone... to small in numbers unfortunatelly, but his not the ... stupid one. The other zerg put about 15 spine crawlers at his choke and had no forces whatsoever. So i start chatting: me: red, what are you doing? <ping his choke> red: what you should have done 3 minutes ago. <naturally I know I'm speaking to an idiot, so I changed my tone to cynical> me: you know, this is kinda team game. When someone gets attacked, you are supposed to help him or if you are a baller, go attack one of his bases. red: DO YOU NOT SEE THAT I HAVE NO UNITS??!?!? me: uhm, yeah, that's kinda my point.
wait... now is the best part
3rd teammate proceeds to attack one of opponents, fails to do so, but he was quite good. Conversaton:
3rd: red, you still have no units... wtf? red: don't you see that I'm teching to mutalisks? 3rd: I see you have spire, yes, but where are yor flyers? red <while his 20 spines bravely fend off attack after attack> I'm safe AS YOU SEE.
Then the 3 mutalisks hatch and in the meantime I get obliterated some more, but again managed to barely stay alive. Then 3rd teammate gets attacked by another player: 3rd: RED, IT'S A TEAM GAME me: don't worry, he got three mutas, we'll be safe.
I love to be cynical towards morons.... It gives me satisfaction even when I lose. aaah, christmass...
I've never played random 2v2 before, and today was my first one.
I'm zerg, my ally is protoss, so I proceed to place an overlord over one of our opponent's ledge to let him warp units later into the game and tell him about it.
To this, he answers : "k" "i rush"
... And to know what's next please download this replay for the most awesomesauce cannon rush of all time :D.

Please do not place creep tumours anywhere fucking near the natural expansions of non-zerg allies.
Thank you, and have a nice day.
You can just kill those if they are in the way. I had this happen to me once when one of my pylons I placed earlier hid a creep tumor behind it, and I couldn't understand why the creep was not retracting. Kept me from expanding for more than 5 minutes. That was more my own fault, though.
