As the title suggests, whats the noobiest thing you've ever witnessed a teammate do?
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.
One time, I moved my CC to my teammate's base because they knew where my base was. I started mining from his minerals but he made me move. So I tried to move to a easily defendable position, but he kept insulting my strategy so I went afk.

one time my teammate playing Zerg got attacked by 2 void rays. He proceeded to build 10 spores then massed up corrupters. The protoss was only harassing and built a ground army after the attack. Needless to say we got dominated when the attack came. I watched the replay and saw the protoss built 2 void rays the whole game and left his 2 in the corner of the map and forgot about them the rest of the game.
My noob teammate never found the 2 void rays in the corner with his 20 corrupters.
In a 2v2 I had a terran teammate attempt a monumental wall with supply depots, he had like 8 or 9 up and then they came in and killed him and then me a few minutes later.
I said "Dude, what the hell are you doing with all those cannons?" to which he replied "In case they rush. I don't want to be caught off guard."
What ended up happening is one of the opponents countered my attack on his partner and annihilated my teammates Nexus because he didn't build a single one of those 27 cannons near his workers. They were all at the front and along the sides of the front half of his base.
I'm top 10 Diamond 2v2. He was Bronze. Not sure how that match-up happens.
PZ vs PT @ LT. Me P, mate Z. He goes 6 pool and I start to think "OK, he knows what he's doing", but after the pool finished, he didn't made any lings. I focused my attention back on my own stuff and 2 minutes later he says to me "can you send me 150 minerals, so that I can make drones?". I look at his base and there are 6 Spine Crawlers, his initial Overlord and ZERO Drones ...

The worst thing that I've had happen me was a protoss ally storming all of my zerglings ... after their push was crushed.. so much for a counter-attack. It wasn't so bad though, considering we still won. I would elaborate, but it was so long ago that I barely remember it.

I think I've seen this somewhere before, it seems strangely familiar...
Also, I always laugh whenever someone gets 6pooled and they immediately panic and start moving their 10+ workers around pointlessly instead of attacking with them.
I hate it when my teammates ridicule my terrible 14 pool 15 hatch or my 15 hatch 14 pool builds and then proceed to teach me how Zerg is meant to be played with very intricate 6pool 8pool and 10pool builds. I must say, those lessons have enlightened me.
i was attacking my opponents base and he sent mutas into my mineral line...
so i said to my teammate Help kill those muta since his army was closer, so he marched in with his army and drops 4 Psi-storms on my workers...... and the mutas flew away unharmed
had a 2v2 where my ally went good old infestor into broodlord off 1 base, the best part: we even won, did the enemy team attack with anything they had, it would have been a face roll.
later on he told me that one needs to find new strategies, but im sure that 1 base broodlord is certainly not the way to go...he was diamond in all leagues infact just fooling around.
I join 3v3 Random Teams on Ulaan Caverns. I spawn middle position so my expansion is in the front closest to the enemy team. So I fast expand to the natural of my team mates which is right under my main. As my hatch pops my team mate(#1) says "Thats my base". Team mate #1 does this build, pylon,pylon, gas,gas,forge. For the entire rest of the game he uses probes, cannons to manually attack my expansion to "reclaim his base".
So the situation is pretty bad, its 3 (enemy players team) and 1 player (my crazy team mate #1) vs me. Despite losing alot of drones and eventually my hatch to one "team mate". I still am hopeful of winning. When the enemy team is attacking me, and my team mate who's expansion I "stole" is attacking me I ask Team mate #2," Can you help me defend?". Team mate #2 says "I don't want to get involved."
Played a 4v4 last night against 3 terrans that all went mostly siege tanks. Our terran decides the correct response to this is to take his 20 marines and set up a contain with a planetary fortress and missle turrets outside one of the terran's base. I'm surprised he even managed to get it into a planetary fortress.
I was playing one time and got teamed with a toss player, he goes for two void's and by that tim i get two medivacs filled with MM. He sended his void rays first and then i catched up with him, but when my medivacs got near his voids he started to kill them and said "dude i just busted his drop".
By the time their armies hit their base he told me "help me you noob".
my irl friend in 3v3 sometimes opens with 3 supply depots
or yesterday at the start of the game i was looking at his base and he made supply depot at 7, rax at 7 then 2 gases and had 1 scv mining, after like 10mins he made his way into first tank
some other time his first two units created were reaper and hellion, we got double 4gated and ling marauder spammed, they must have laughed so hard when they seen his reaper and hellion :D i dont know how he can be so bad at this game he played like 100 games already and played broodwar before.
oh and another so he played protoss and went blink stalkers, had like 20 of them, some dude made pure zealot had like 30 of them and instead of kiting those zealots(not even with charge) he blinked right into them and died, i facepalmed so hard and didnt know if i should cry or what becouse that was the most insanely idiotic thing i have ever seen in starcraft.
and when i asked him on vent why did he do that - he didnt responded. i seriously dont know why we play 3v3s with him it is so frustrating when everyone is at like 100 supply and hes at 30 making turrets 18 turrets around his base when some guy has 5 mutas.
I played a 3v3 with my friend and his friend that I've never met. He was great. He decided to proxy barracks with bunkers right next to the cliff of an opponent's base. His conclusion after the game was "darn, high ground is good."
Once I had this teammate in a 4v4 build no barracks, and rush to a CC, eng bay, and gas. Then he floated his second CC towards the opponents side of the map and built a PF at one of their naturals. Held off their attacks for a little while, but really, that PF had no shot of lasting. Then dinked around the rest of the game building some dumbass marines and ravens that mostly died.
I was playing 2V2 with a friend. We were both playing zerg and decided to do a double 8 pool. After a while I noticed nothing was happening in his base, but I knew he was not afk (he was behind me).
So I asked, and its happens that he was playing on my base. We didn't have shared control, but as we were doing the exact build he never noticed that he forgot to move back and that he was clicking in empty air. Now he will be remembered for that at least till Starcraft 4.

He had been queued with me the previous game and blamed me for the loss despite being of no use to the team whatsoever (I basically played a 1v2 for 20 minutes and eventually lost).
So, he raged at me for being noob the second game, and I said w/e. So he gets pissed and goes "I can end it right now". I, misinterpreting what he was saying, responded with "yes please just leave, I'd rather 1v2 with your base than 2v2 with you." So... he scv rushed me in spite.
I was playing CS:S and my new Starcraft 2 buddy PM'd me like "Dude I'm so pro with zerg now, I learned this new build and it owns in 2v2 and 3v3." I was like ok lets do it!
He 6 pooled and spent so much time 'microing' his first and only production cycle of zerglings that he got up to 1k minerals.

I'll just say that I had to do a lot of work to keep us in the game, lol.
Then I taught him how to 4gate with Protoss and now he mains as Protoss, lol.
1 minute: i scout, see they're going mass stalker/banshee/DT or Voidray, i tell everyone 10ish minutes: no one but me has expanded 15ish minutes: we're attacked by mass stalkers, banshees, and a couple of DTs. i'm the only one with detection, and the only one with an army of more then 4 tier 1 units. we hold out, somehow 20ish minutes: i have a 75 food army of roaches, some mutas, and some hydras, plus a few overseers. all three of them attack us. my teammates finally have expansions now. their armies are roughly 12 tier 1 units. we get steamrolled. they weren't even teching.
then they blame imba, etc.
another really good one, was i told my teammate in a 2v2 that both of them were going mass voidrays. to counter this, when the voidrays come, i have more then enough hydras to hold this off with some help from my teammate. so i ping the map, tell him to help. he sends over 20 banshees.

XD
I'm serious about to log on right now and drone rush my teammate.
One person was Zerg. They weren't really in the thick of things, and I wasn't paying much attention to them. Later in the game, they were attacked and asked for help. I look over, and he has 3 bases, each with three hatcheries and no units but workers.
I should have asked him what was goin' on there, but I just shrugged my shoulders and moved on. I'm not sure I wanted a glimpse into that person's mind.
lol...some of the stories are really funny to read anyway...in the week when sc2 launched i played a 3vsAI with random mates. i was terran, one was terran too and the 3rd was protoss... we all did our openings and got some units...since my mates were pumping enough forces to hold of the first wave i decided to focus on teching... all of a sudden the toss started to kill my few forces i had left.. i was surprised but thouhgt maybe just some misclicks... after one more minute he went for my workers and i wrote something like "wtf? stop that, we're on the same team!" he didn't stop so i decided to fly up my building to another place because he didn't stop attacking me... he started now to attack our other mate...the 3 AI's went in and killed my terran mate and almost all of the toss stuff... he just had a bunch of probes left and wrote me he needs some minerals to build a new base... as you can probably imagine i wasn't really in the mood for that and had to build my own stuff... however i got pretty much owned by the 3 AI's next attack and after the game the toss messaged me a bunch of flames and how bad i am at this game... could've been such an easy game....that was pretty much the only time so far i got really mad when playing starcraft 2...
I LOVE the stupid diamond 4v4 kids that build 8-10 stargates on one base and only build 1-2 voids at a time because they don't have near the econ they need to support the SGs.
One game when I was playing Protoss, I massed up Probes. I had 200 Probes for the final attack, but building up to them actually took a while since Nexus' take forever to build. I had like 7 Nexus' producing max Probes, but I had a 200 army like 15 minutes in. Sadly my Probes surrounded the enemy quite easily and meat-shielded for my teammate nicely. It was fun.

I just did a team game earlier today and the other players were downright terrible. This one terran built a CC and had no army by about 10 minutes into the game. The enemy dropped a bunch of valks and started to wreck his CC. When I went to help I kept telling him to lower his frickin supply depot so my hydralisks could save him. Finally after about 3 minutes I just blew a hole in his wall myself but it was too late for his command center and most of his SCVs.
In another game I fast expanded to 4 bases really quickly and got attacked by all 3 of the other players. Nobody helped me. For the next 20 minutes of the game I fought 3v1 just barely holding on and constantly losing my third and fourth expansions without any help from my 3 allies. Somehow All three of them just sat there as I struggled and none of them attacked and pushed in while most of the other team was busy.
The game ended. The scores were Myself at first "Despite constantly losing bases/drones" All 4 of the other team's players My three allies

He was on 1 base 20 minutes in game.
And one of my teammates started to kill my stalkers and was like "Relax we won this". After killing all my 25 stalkers it turned out that there were hidden stargates pumping void rays. I was so upset at him. Told him it was bad idea but he was still insisting.

It was a 4v4. It was one of those maps where two players share one ramp. I was Terran. The person that I was sharing the platform with was Protoss.
The two players on the other platform were cannon rushed, and they stopped it. Then, the teammate on my platform builds a pylon right next to my base, and I think 'oh crap, cannon rush!' so, I send a couple scv's to kill it. My teammate goes "WTF are you doing." I apologize and go sit in the corner.
I get 6pooled, I lose all drones, very bad. But wait! Z drops out of the game! excellent. I take teammate's marine medivac and drop zerg killing it and now it's TvT
Opponent T making mass marines. NP i say to my teammate. make tanks He sees 1 banshee He makes 12 vikings We lose I was sad
4v4 with me and another buddy playing off race with some noob friends My ally(Beernessecity) builds 9 pylons, 3 gateways, a forge, and expands before having any army. He then starts building canons in the middle of the map to protect our vision at the xel naga watch tower. We tell him to just get some collosus. So he builds 3 robotics facilities and a bay AT HIS EXPO. He has nothing to protect it so they immediately get destroyed before he gets any collosus out. We still tell him that we need collosus, so this time he builds 4 robotics facilities(AGAIN at his expo), then follows that with a robotics bay and 3 more robotics facilities(and still no collosus). He then mines out at his main so he is on 1 base, with 7 robotics facilities, and 7 warp gates, and only 62 food. He then gets 15 collosus(some of which get walled in by his many structures) with no supporting ground army(i think my other noob ally must have been feeding him money). Anyways, we go on to win because the other noob team got harassed early with lings and reapers.

i was in a 2v2 random and my partner was a zerg. it was on twilight fortress. we share a base and he isnt doing anything. After about 30 seconds he finally starts mining minerals. He then writes "I hope your good." we get double rushed, lings and zealots and lose...i have never played a 2v2 random since.
In 2v2 placement matches, my teammate was obviously a bronze league RTS first-timer. I asked him what he was gonna do, and he answered "an army".
When the opponents started pushing through the mid, I realized my partner had 2 zealots. I said "Make an army, dude". The opponents then procceded to attack my base and I wasn't able to hold them off alone. I then asked my partner "what are you doing, man?", and he just left right after I typed it.
Not as bad as some stuff I read on this thread, but still, I was facepalming so hard that my hand almost made it through my skull.
I was playing diamond random 2v2 and my partner was so clueless, he was like "how to play protoss?", so I told him to just 13 gate, and then he started to ACTUALLY MAKE 13 GATEWAYS, i was like wtf! He made no units at all and then i got rushed and died...I don't know how i got matched with such a terrible noobie partner..

My (bronze) teammate told me ( diamond 1v1, gold 2v2) to micro his army of 4 zealots along with my army of blink stalkers. All he did all game was make 4 zealots every 2-3 minutes and expand once. I don't think he even had warp gate. Sigh...

OMG I hate that! all the sudden all of these diamond team game "specialists" (read afraid to play 1v1, and dt rush every team game) are telling me how i don't know how to play zerg. and i cant even get them to not dt rush, cause they think it's spectacular. or theyll look at the score of an early game win, and cause i was being aggressive to get the win, my econ is low, and i'm "not in first", lol.
stupidest teammate play... my teammate in a 3v3 ragequit because he lost like 5 of his 15 probes to early aggression, so i took over, and teched to carriers with a mothership, and mixed that up with my zerg army. invisible zerglings are the shit!
I tried to teach my step bro how to play and he pulled the same thing. He floated over to my base, mined for a bit, floated back to his base and said "robbed ya bitch!". The bastard.
My ally gave me his units and said go and get em. and pinged their main. I asked what you gonna do if im doing the attacking, and only replied: defend. I tried to do all the sieging and storming and forcefielding and EMping at the same time my team mate chilled in the base with 2 tanks. This wasnt the bad part really. It was the fact i was in gold and he was in diamond. And i told him my micro would suck with 2 races at the same time... Checked the replay and he had 0 apm during the battles just was watching my playing.
Yeah its not that bad as rest of you but it somehow got under my skin... wonder if he does the same thing in every team game.

My 2vs2 placement match ally was first time zerg player. As soon as game starts he proceeds to tell me that he is a terrible player and soon I find out why. He makes 3 spawning pools and asks me why he couldn't make zerglings out of them. Thankfully, other team was just as bad and I barely managed to win while teaching my ally about "zerg".
couple of opponents did a double stalker push and I look at my ally's base, this was pretty early on so I was focusing hard on my own macro
my ally had gone for a one base, two spire, no queen, NO units other than drones, no spine crawlers broodlord rush. I still won, after he had been pasted all over the map, of course. lovely feeling that was
I had one guy try and expand into three armies with only a couple of units, and when I didn't move my units out of our choke into the teeth of a massively superior force, about a minute later he warped in about twenty stalkers (out of his eight warpgates that had until then remained silent) and proceeded to walk across and destroy my nexus, and our third ally's CC then left the game.
Maybe not the noobiest, but it stuck in my memory. I was playing random 3on3, and I was regularly getting teamed up with some very, very poor players. Then in one game I saw we were playing three zerg, and I knew what was coming next. Yup, they all 6-pooled, and immediately killed our zerg. Meanwhile, the other player - a Terran like me, proceeded to not wall off his ramp, not build a barracks, and build an Engineering Bay quite early.
Considering what I had seen the last few games, my hopes weren't up at this point. I continued to do my usual thing, and didn't really consider that I would be able to win, but just wanted to play it out. Then the other guy finally built a few barracks, constructing a wall for his mineral line, and built a planetary fortress, and started pumping marines, got combat shield, and pushed out. He then proceeded to wtfpwn one, while I - still in shock that what he was doing was working - took care of a second, before we finished off the third together.
It was surreal. To be fair, they were obviously noobs.
i played random 3v3 once with a friend of mine, and this random team mate of ours was like, if you build u mine gas we will lose. he said "i am a 3v3 pro so i know and i lost the last 3 games cos my noob teammates went to harvest gas. just build gateways and mass zealots and we win." i decided to ignore him and went about my own build then he decided to attack me for mining gas. fortunately he has the micro and macro of a below bronze league player so i held his attack and decimated his base in return later on. my friend and i both diamond players managed to eventually go on and win the game. ( this was in 3v3 placement).
I like to play some 3v3s or even 4v4s from time to time, mainly to mess around and try off-racing. By far the most common thing that happens is some zerg 6 pools and my teammate screams for help because he didn't build any kind of wall at his choke and has no idea how to micro workers against it. So stupid.
p scouts enemy p didnt wall off z did speedling rape p ragequit and obviously we lost that game
next game: i get him as teammate again he chats: "you are the z from last game, right?" then he attacks my main with his probes. Enemy lol'ed, i just cant believe what just happend.
2's... he wants DT's so goes... 10 pylon, 10 assimilator, 10 assimilator, 16 pylon ... then cuts probe production and only has 1 gateway still when he got his dark shrine up and some 2 zealots which made him need backup when he first got attacked by some weak attack or like 8 marines...
he follows that up with next game deciding to go zealot/marauder/void ray off 1 base
Actually noobier still... He doesn't understand why i dislike 2's with him.
After seeing the stuff in this thread, I feel pretty bad for complaining about the dumb things my friends do - like abandon all ground unit production for a mid game switch to VRs and then ignore armies without much AA so the VRs can base trade, make 4 gates before cybercore, or 4 Gate expand while attacking builds that accumulate a thousand minerals on 1 base - or whatever stupid coop partners do.
2v2, Double toss, I start by asking the game plan, my ally responds "zeal rush" so we both 2 gate we each get 3 zeals and run in. Opponent is halfway walled off but we manage to demolish their base anyways, 1 opponent leaves, T opponent lifts his buildings and runs to the corner in a map with no islands so I flame him for a bit and tech up to air. When my cybercore is about done I check to see what my good ol' ally is doing...
He has made some more gateways and is continuing to mass zeals. So I say to him "make some air dude."
He responds "oh I was hoping it wouldn't get to that point."

I look at his base and there are 6 Spine Crawlers, his initial Overlord and ZERO Drones ...
That is fucking hilarious. Good delivery too.
WHAT. So he did morph a drone.
6 pool (5 drones left) 5,4,3,2,1 Crawlers (0 drones).
once my teammate did nothing but wall himself him and build 2 command centers he pumped a gazillion scvs and wanted to transfer money to me but there was that cooldown we got rushed and lost lol
Guys lifting off to the island expos in 2v2 with terran, i absolutely love theyr way of thinking.. hahaha maybe if i start making scvs 5minutes late ingame and let my partner die.. then i canz killz themz with my BCZZZ

PF block the chokes to keep us safe. Try to lift it when it's time to expand. Can't get out, so we kill the PF. 4 armies teching off about 2-3 bases apiece end our lives.
I have a friend (yes it is you Darren) i play with 2v2 and 3v3, and though he isnt a bad player, he reaction time is the worst i have ever seen. for example i will ping and tell him (on skype) thier is a drop going to his main and get there now, my units get there faster than he does and he will lose his nexus. and i will be like wtf y didnt you move, he always says he was doing something else?!? unless i get control from him, which i never get, we genraly lose if they harrass or attack me (if our bases are far away). i know its not that nooby but it still annoys me.

me too
wanted to write something about my protoss-partner going 10+ cannons into mass-void-rays vs double terran.....and complaining why I (!) got destroyed while he is still massing rays without attacking.... but then I saw this ridiculous stuff around and felt I couldn't keep up
EDIT:
ah, still have a good one; against PT - my partner, Terran, goes for a fast expand; I'm like..."oh..keeh" and mass gateway-units from 4-gate to keep the others busy; then when I look back at my ally, he has started nothing else but massing thors; it's funny because he was indeed diamond
Rather than laughing about a teammate error, I'll share mine.
We were in this tense 4v4, 2 of us could not mining anymore, so for the opposite team. I proposed to micro one of my mate's units (T). I harrassed everywhere possible with his fleets of viking, buying them time, then had to pull back to help them in a big fight and lost all vikings...
Now opponents have several thors, last remnents of their ancient Big Ball Of Death, and are marching towards a mate's hatch (the last one mining) and the terran one said to me "take my tanks, go defend this !".
Thors were under a cliff, where I could go easily and hit Thors withtout taking any hits. I had like 9 or 10 tanks (prepatch) to micro. I WAS READY TO SAVE THE GAME !
And then, my Zerg spirit told me "FUCK CLIFF, RUSH THOR FRONTAL AND SIEGE JUST BEHND DEM THOR !"
A huuuuuuuuge batlle starts, last like 3 seconds, and then no Thors are dead... but all tanks are.
My mate on skype were silent, and suddenly, one asks (on skype) "but... why... didn't you go for the cliff... ?"
My answer was simple.
"I DUNNO LOL."
No need to say, we lost immediately. I was mad at myself for this... But now when we play together, we laugh about this pretty much.
They are still my friends, which is a happy ending at least XD
Random 2v2. My teammate, a Terran, has like 8 siege tanks. Decides it would be a good idea to march them across the map to our opponent's base.
Little do I know he has move commanded them and not attack move and isn't keeping an eye on them either. So of course a component of our opponent's army (8 marines) intercept the tanks mid transfer. I watched 8 marines kill 8 siege tanks with siege tech.
I didn't know how to respond, I was stunned watching this...
I played like 20 or 30 games with a RL friend on the 4v4 and 3v3 ladders,he plays terran all the way, we win some , we loose some more, we where connected over skype all the time and then at some point he says: "So, you are saying that marauders can use stim ?"
I am still breaking my head over how he could make the stim upgrade so often and not notice this :o
I played a 4v4 where there was only one terran on the opposing team. The guy built nothing but ghosts and nukes, and then dropped 3 nukes on each of his allies base, saying "ALLAH ACKBAR" in chat, then leaving. One of the guys that got nuked kept screaming and asking who nuked him.
What's hilarious is that we were getting demolished. If it weren't for that they would've won.

I laughed so hard when I read this i almost suffocated XD
Saddest part of that game was ur opponents not attacking during those 9 minutes in game, wtf were they doing ? probably realized what u teammate did and LOL with lots of epicness.
As the title suggests, whats the noobiest thing you've ever witnessed a teammate do?
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.
ill post a replay when i get home
LOL! That is like......So noob, i would be like shouting the whole time!
i got 2, but they are not as good as yours :D when im playing 2v2 i dont care so much about my mate, well i care if he needs help but now what he is doing cause 90% of time they are doing wierd, really wierd stuffs that im asking my self: does he know something what i dont ?
1. my T mate (i was Z) decided to wall in, OK but he made only SCVs from 2 CCs in one base, i was like OK this is still cool, but after 10min of me harrasing with mutas and trying to defend with rouches they decided to check my mate by medivacs, it could be OK but he didnt have any units and just said: How could they get so many units so early ?! and left.
I deliberately placed in Bronze 2v2 and me and a plat friend do the most retarded stuff, its fucking hilarious.
We've rushed/massed every unit pretty much, managed to get into Silver league still after a few games.
out most glorious win in silver was a game when we double rushed only archons, actually managed to break the other ZZ team, but one of their players had about 7 broodlords and 8 corruptors in our base. Archons can never get up to broodlords, so it became this guerilla battle of avoiding the lords and hiding bases while wiping out his starts. We managed to get out like 2 pheonixes which we used to slowly wear down his corruptors with hit and run and regenerating shields...we won.
Its still surprisingly terrible how massing odd units works, we lose to the most awful players.
i was harassing this terrans main with a few lings. i had killed off his scv that was making his racks so he only had scvs to attack, and i killed a few scvs. then i went back outside, waited 30 seconds, and went in again to harass. killed some more, then went back outside and was not able to use those units for about 2 minutes, and then i went up to look again and he was blocked off with full supply depots.
now for the hilarious part: i watched the replay, and he made NOTHING but supply depots at his main, (he literally had 10 depots @ 6 supply) and even lifted and landed his command center behind the depots LOL
I was playing 2v2s and 3v3s with my cousin who's pretty bad. In one 3v3, I was being silly with nydus worms and at one point spawned on in his base cause I saw an attack coming. I ping the map and go "Hey look what I did!" He then proceeds to kill it, then get steam rolled cause my slow ass hydras can't make it in time. "Why did you do that?! I'm the only zerg in the game!" "I thought it was going to kill me..." I think he was drinking when we played too...his macro is already bad enough -.-

"I hope your good"
I love this fraze. Makes me high.
I haven't met so unpredictable partners however I met tons talkative ones. They usually start with simple "from"? But it ends at size of my boots or do I like carrots. As I am tired of this guys I will mention my last conversation.
him: "from?" me: "Saturn" (kinda joke) "IDIOT" "It's sad but somehow no one believes me" "YOU WANA LOSE?" "You wana terrorise me?" silence silence (meabe he's confused) silence
it was a 3v3, P/T/Z(me) and apparently both P and T did not block the ram.. Then T proceed to expand, cc far away from the minerals.. It was quite at the start, the T did not even build a single barracks, just mass SCVs.. Then when i ping P to attack one of the opponent's expo, T pulls out all his SCVs to fight.. apparently he thinks that there's only SCVs could fight..
I said "Dude, what the hell are you doing with all those cannons?" to which he replied "In case they rush. I don't want to be caught off guard."
What ended up happening is one of the opponents countered my attack on his partner and annihilated my teammates Nexus because he didn't build a single one of those 27 cannons near his workers. They were all at the front and along the sides of the front half of his base.
I'm top 10 Diamond 2v2. He was Bronze. Not sure how that match-up happens.
I have great replay of the game I once played 4v4 and one of the enemies built like 50+ cannons, close to the end when he was only one remaining he finally decided to build his first gateway so he could build a stargate and 2-3 phoenixes, then he continued building cannons Of course colossi with thermo lance do not really care about cannons so all those cannons were totally useless (well they would be anyway even if had to kill it with gateway units).
The amazingness of this thread has made me want to play random 2v2, 3v3 and 4v4s really really poorly to see how bad these people are. But sometimes it's really hard to both be entertained and play poorly. Opening cannon into FE everywhere + HT actually works, as does mass raven. I need to start getting even cheesier or I'll get promoted
After reading a little of this thread, I was inspired to act like an idiot in 4v4 random. So I sent all my drones to attack my teammates base off the bat. Someone else on my team told me I would be reported. So I attacked him instead. The two teammates I attacked left the game, so I used the income I was getting from them to mass zerglings and roches. My remaining partner did the same, and we overwhelmed the enemies and won the game (the opponents didn't use teamwork to defend our attacks so we took them out one by one.

I refuse to believe you.
He had been queued with me the previous game and blamed me for the loss despite being of no use to the team whatsoever (I basically played a 1v2 for 20 minutes and eventually lost).
So, he raged at me for being noob the second game, and I said w/e. So he gets pissed and goes "I can end it right now". I, misinterpreting what he was saying, responded with "yes please just leave, I'd rather 1v2 with your base than 2v2 with you." So... he scv rushed me in spite.
I tell my teammate I'm going to rush banshees and he should go mm. He says ok . I focus on my build and pump 4 banshees from two starports and ask him if he's ready? When I ask I check his base for the first time and he has 7 starports pumping Vikings.
Watching someone move his army of thors across the map with a move command and getting annihilated by an army of roaches/zerglings while not attacking once.

It was the fact i was in gold and he was in diamond. And i told him my micro would suck with 2 races at the same time... Checked the replay and he had 0 apm during the battles just was watching my playing.
Wow... that was an -awesome- story. It's like watching a movie... nice...
Yeah, nice stories there guys i certainly laughed a few times.
What i see often in team games is that people just tech up without even scouting, don't even watch around what's happening (while their allies getting destroyed). And at the end of the game theire allies did all the work for nothing because this ally hasn't done anything but caring about his own base and make it look more pretty. I really wonder what's going on in those people's minds ^^
PP vs TZ I begin with a 3 gate robo. A mass of marauders and roaches roll through and destroy most of my forces, they pull back after me abusing high ground advantage, worked their numbers down. My teammate is nowhere to be seen. 5 minutes later a bigger force of marauders shows up at my door with medivacs this time. My forces get crushed. As my base is getting destroyed i check my teammates base to see what the hell hes been doing. even when i clearly asked for help many many times to no avail.
He has only 7 void rays (About 12 mins into the game i might add) and a-moves them into the terrans base.
...Which i had scouted with an observer earlier and revealed numerous missle turrets.
I left. Didnt even want to see what happened after that
the most incredible things always happen in 4v4 like zerg players who go fast exe plus muta with 0 lings, other memories are about phoenix against mass marines, tech to BC or carriers
but the funniest moments are definitely when you see a huge bunch of units on the minimap coming to you and you are waiting...and waiting...but your ally just doesnt appear
I guess it doesn't technically count as my teammate, but I was playing a 2v2 and one of the opponents floated his command center over my base (at the very start of the game), then moved it back down to where his original base was, then left. To this day I'm baffled.
was playing a coop 2v2 when my protoss buddy (i was zerg) made a ton of cannons when the ai was targeting me... then after 3 waves fending off i found out that he was teching to fast carriers... around 10mins in, my base gets leveled and his 2 carriers come out...
2v2ing was TTvZZ (I was T) and my partner had done nothing but built 2 racks and 3 bunkers around his mineral line. i was scouting and i told him i think mutas are coming, and i was imagining him shitting his pants being scared of zerg while he began to throw up about 10 missile turrets.
i told the enemy to go kill my partner so i can have his minerals, and then a bunch of roaches and mutas rape his 2 racks and 3 bunkers and x missile turrets. i roll out with my thor/marine/tank army and kill both zergs entire base and expansions, but i was an idiot and forgot to keep on making shit around the map, and 3 muta's killed off my last supply depots

In a 3v3 a teammate decided to 6 worker rush. So me and the other guy joined in, lol. Needless to say, hilarity ensued and even our opponents had a good time too :D
2v2 me Terran with another Terran vs 2 Zergs. My ally rushes to Thors. But we are in luck, they go both mass Muta. They attack me, I ping the map, saying: mutas in my base. he reply's: fuck this, I have only made a ground army. And he instantly leaves the game ><
Every once in a while in random 2s, I will run into a person who STILL HASNT LEARNED that going pure VR isnt that good, ive seen them go pure vr, get rolled, see that theres 20+ muta on the map, and still go vr instead of phoenix.
I had a zerg player RUSH for infestors. He built 4 of them with burrow and then proceeded to attack the enemy's base. Goes without saying that a simple scan caught all of them and then he quit.

this beats everything. worst thing i have seen was a P ally attempting an inbase VR proxy. got 6pooled ofc^^
in a 4v4 a terran teammate stimmed his marines and marauders the whole time without any reason. they had almost no hp and the medivacs lost their energy. he never answered why he did it.
It was a 3v3 at Typhoon, our team was ZZP. We were doing the usual whatcha getting and the protoss was very silent. He went Forge at around 11-12 supply so the zerg said he's canon rushing, lets rush. After we got our lings out our protoss ally made a pylon by the rocks on the expansion, made a canon and started attacking the rocks with the canons! we were like wtf man and the opponent counter attacked and he didnt have anything and we eventually lost
So it was one day after MLG DC, and I decided to Mothership rush in all my team games that day (as a mini-tribute to HuK =D), and it actually worked out quite well results-wise.
This one 3v3, a teammate notices what I'm doing pretty early on, and proceeds to trash talk me relentlessly, seriously screwing up his own game in the process. I just ignore it (I don't talk much in team games anyway), and proceed to eliminate one of our opponents with a Recall in his base single-handedly, as well as the other opponent's expo. Two of my teammates arrive with their armies and start attacking the guy in the middle as the game is pretty much swinging in our favor.
In what was supposed to be a game-ending battle, I move my Mothership with Observer to cloak my teammates' ground army, and that same guy on my team targets my Mothership with all his Stalkers and takes it down.
I was doing a Random 2v2 because I was bored. The league i'm in is low diamond (because I never play and whenever I do play my teammates are always idiots) and I coulda sworn the person that I got teamed up with was silver. He didn't get warp gates the ENTIRE GAME. He had 2 bases with about 30 probes and 3 gateways making pure stalkers with blink.
After about 14 minutes I'm asking him why the hell he hasn't gotten warp gates and his reply is...
So I was terran the other day, and my teammate said 'hey how do you play protoss?' I was puzzled by why he decided to random when he didn't know at least all the races generally. I told him the first few basic orders: 13 gateway, 13/14 gas. But what the hell, he started building a shitload of gateways. 'Why am I need 13 gates?' he asked. I was actually more of amazed than shocked at that point in time. I thought we were screwed for sure.
Just played a 4v4 on Extinction. Two guys lagged like hell and eventually one left. Then it dragged into a Thors + marines fest where I had the upper hands thanks to upgrades. Then my red teammate started attacking me.
In a TTvZP (the map with shared main that has back door rocks and a single wide ramp) we got busted via the back door and my ally started losing all his shit because his whole army was 9 Vikings. Meanwhile I had a lot of forces guarding the main ramp but I decided since my ally was fucked, I was just going to talk some shit and leave.
However, my ally remained in the game with a floating CC and Rax, and meanwhile the enemies suicided on my tanks with their zealot-roach rush, lost all their Corrupters and Phoenix to the viking ball, and my ally used my structures to gather up a Viking-Tank push while his existing vikings crushed overlords and probes. Went on my record as a win. :> My leaving the game was clearly what won it for us.
the noobest thing i ever did was my brother and i were 2v2 terran and protoss and we were on vent and my brother as a joke goes bro drops ships so i quick react and blink and kill the drop ships .... not knowing they were his drop ships... he laughed .. aslo the zerg with no drones wins
bumping this thread, because its made out of pure awesome!
just played on a custom version of arakan citadel, i thought i give it a wing before laddering, then i realized all minerals are gold on the map. well, so far, so good, then our team mate blue comes into action. i just better post the replay so u can see yourself.
Key facts: - E-bay as first building but instead of blocking an expo our mate decided to built it in his base (alternetively known as the "Big Wall") - CC lift-off to fortify the wall with some really good long-distance mining going on - double Ghost Academy + 2 Nukes... onfortunetely without adding a techlab to his rax much much more
its a very good laugh I totally recommend it !! Replay
I had a terran ally build 3 depots at his ramp before he built a barracks. The enemy zerg got out some lings and attacked his wall. The terran did not repair it. The lings got in the base and found one marine that just finished building and killed it along with all his workers.
During beta I had an ally build only one probe before taking his gas and then he slowly built up to zealots(without building more probes). He attacked the enemy terran's bunker with his 2 zealots. Thankfully the enemies were also quite bad so I just beat them with a 4gate. I think that was my first or second 2v2 random team game during beta.
i would LOVE to see some of these games on Day9daily
maybe "Fail friday" or some shit(shame he always is traveling/casting there), some of these stories are too good not to be made into epic hillarity by the man himself

My teammate decides to run away 5 seconds into the battle with his stalkers, before my Thors are in postion. and hes say BACK BACK BACK..... Im like....... THOR IS SLOW THOR CAN NOT RETREAT YOU IDIOT. Well my thor where helplessly owned and then we procceded to lose with my teammate saying WHY DIDNT YOU RETREAT NOOB
The other day I wanted to try Protoss for the first time since beta. I'm diamond in random 2v2 but i figured I'd just 4 gate. My teammate made two probes that were rallied NEXT to a mineral patch and didn't make anything else for the whole game. Somehow, I killed their armies twice and almost won because colossi are apparently that damn good.

Anyways I don't play random team, but I do play with friends. At retail a lot of them had never played sc (or had played it 10 years ago) so they would always open with some wierd ass shit like 10 pylon, 11 pylon, 12 assim. Or they would wall off before building a barracks.
My Teammate tried a cannon drop with a warp prism. That was his first attack. It came at about 8 minutes into the game and he had ZERO units beside the warp prism. Needless to say he was scouted and his cannon drop failed. So he decided to try it on the other guy which resulted in another fail.
Lol funny thread. Im not sure of the most frustrating but one that I recall was my ally planetary fortress rushing without getting any gas or engineering bay. He just landed the CC in the enemies base which they proceeded to kill with ease lol.
My teammate started getting cannon rushed. I spotted it early, when I told him about it he didn't do anything. When I insisted that he attack the pylon warping into his base, he asked me, "Attack it with what?" So I responded, "With your workers!" He then said, "Oh, I didn't know they could do that." By then it was too late.
Was playing a 4v4 a while ago, this guy made 1 expansion and proceeded to make 7 or so Hatcheries in his main, he then only proceeded to make drones and waaaaaaay over saturated his main (had like 3 drones at his natural and probably over 70 in his main lol). anyway, he techs to lair and starts massing mutalisks, makes about 30 and runs then straight into enemy marines / thors and loses them all.
I was in a 3v3 with two IRL friends and we briefly went over tactics and it went something like this:
'Right, we're PPT, they're ZZT, let's wall off quickly to make sure we survive any early rushes, everyones happy with this and hear no problems about anything, even though we were all somewhat new but we knew the basics.'
About 5 minutes later one of my friends says over vent 'Oh shi- Guys! zerglings, lots of them, lots and lots!'
So i scroll my camera over his base and instead of walling off at the choke with some pylon/gateway/zealot/cyber mix, he has like 9 pylons lined up like soldiers, not even at the choke, it was at like the widest part of the entrance to his base, halfway from the choke and his nexus and had a lot of early zerglings in a line, all attacking each one with a huge surface area each and he spent all his money on the pylons so he didn't have any units. I didn't even bother sending my units over there to try help him.
the next few words out of his mouth were 'man fucking zerg is so OP, i couldn't do anything, what can i do against that?'
I had a few high end 3v3's that were ruined because of teammates. I spawned as zerg, and began spreading my creep immediately to my teammates bases (toss + toss) with multiple queens, because I wanted to be able to run zerglings over to his base to help defend easily. Soon I had creepy completely covering their bases, and for whatever reason they got angry at me and started attacking me I don't get it :[ Also, I had one game where I began building pylons in the front of his nexus inbetween the mineral patch to wall in his nexus, incase the enemy tried to attack it with melee units. Sure, his probes were mining slower, but at least I was helping defend! I don't get why people get angry about teamwork :[

What's hilarious is that we were getting demolished. If it weren't for that they would've won.

I'm going to assume he wanted to PF rush you but didn't realize it costed mins/gas
I was playing 2s with my brother (diamond) who is better than myself (plat) but he pulled the most retarded paly and I mention this only because it worked to much awe. So he picks toss and I random zerg. We wind up in a mirror match. He pretty much tells me to sling/roach and buy time for him to tech up. I get so busy holding off two people at once and trying to let them sack auxillary buildings to buy time for some massive maxed out 200/200 army to come in and wipe up. Well that army never shows up. Once I got to the stage of trying to plant hidden hatches so I would stop being revealed I finally get a breather to look and see what his tech is. He had rushed mass DTs and the whole time I was scrapping to live he had been eating their economy from the inside out, as in there wasnt a single nexus or hatch living for the other team but they had all their other structures. They didn't have enough detection and couldnt make more after robo and lair got sniped. While I was happy we won. I was just facepalming that it had worked b/c I knew that was going to just encourage him to try it again....
But this was all your plan, right? Throw contaminate on the stargate and the voidrays will become magnetically attracted to it, which will make them kill the stargate which will then slow down voidray production.

He 6 pooled and spent so much time 'microing' his first and only production cycle of zerglings that he got up to 1k minerals.
wow... i cant imagine those first 6 ever winning a game
I'll just say that I had to do a lot of work to keep us in the game, lol.
Then I taught him how to 4gate with Protoss and now he mains as Protoss, lol.
Haha, I've done this exact thing with a friend of mine. He called me up yesterday and said he'd gone 14-0 using only 4warpgate in goldleague.
I once vortex/nuked a friendly flock of mutas in a 4v4 cause I thought they were hostile units. By the time the guy noticed and told me to cancel the nuke it was on its way down. lol I am disappoint.

I did something similar the other day but the reverse. We were TZ vs some noobs, and we get very far ahead so my T partner decides he wants to get a nuke. This is all well and good, and we set it up so that he nukes the one expansion the other team has, there are a bunch of zerglings on one escape path, and banelings on the other escape path. Basically their drones are dead, guaranteed. Well, while I'm microing banelings to catch them all, I accidentally send my 3-page control group of zerglings into the natural. I went from maybe 50 or 60 lings to 1. We were on Skype while this happened, so he just starts screaming "MOVE THE LINGS MOVE THE LINGS" and I only realized what he meant when I tried to select my lings and only one showed up for duty.
been happening a few times recently and has started to bug the hell out of me. Game starts, rush arrives, but my teammate does nothing. doesnt move his probes/drones/scvs, just sits there and lets the enemy destroy his whole resource gathering operation.
Last night my protoss teammate decides that an army of observers (except the one stalker he made at the start) is the best tactic against zerg. "now we see everything they do", yes ok but you dot need 50 fucking observers to do that

trust me it really isnt. it was funny yes, but when you have 2 150 food zerg armies baring down on you, and all your partner is doing is floating invisible fucking eyes everywhere it gets annoying pretty quickly
My "good ally" made a bad atack, started to get atacked by one void ray and pulled all his scvs out of mineral line and went off (he had 3 rax with 2 reactor 1 lab). Took me 7 minutes to realize that his scvs were not in the mineral line since i was pressuring them to win. After 14 minutes, thou 1 mistake clearly costed me the game that i made, with that extra income would be a piece of cake :D.

I wasn't really serious, but if I had to choose between my allies rushing and failing miserable (happens quite a lot for me) and my ally doing something semi-funny while we are getting rolled, I'll take the later one.
As for the topic, my own noob mistakes I've done a few times is sending my drones to the mineral line, click the hatch and sd while I go away from my base to check up on my allies and maybe chat for a while until I return to my base only to see my drones paused half-way to the mineral line. (having missed the hatch in the beginning and giving the drones the stop command instead of making a drone). Now I always make the drone first.
I think it was a TT v PP game. Both teams had shared bases and I was the only one that scouted in my team. Anyways I scout the other army and they have walled off there ramp, got about 8 gateways combined and pumping out lots and lots of zealots/stalkers. I tell my teammate to help bunker up as we are about to be rushed. He just says 'How do you know that?', to which I reply 'trust me'. Needless to say he didn't help defend, we got stomped and i've never played 2v2 random again.
Him:"Hold them off me, I'm going DTs" Me: Alright, I'll try.
*15 minutes later*
Me: Wtf? You're just not getting you're twilight council? Him: I hate to get gateways first! Me: Why do you have 10 gateways? You only need a few to make tons of DTs >< Him; Stop being bad and just keep me alive and we win. Me: Fine.
*5 minutes later, 20 minutes in the game he sends about 6 DTs out, and they all get picked off with a scan*
Him: DUDE WTF Me: What? Him: Why didn't you kill the terran? I don't have any DTs now! Me: I was trying to just survive! You havn't done anything to help at all. Him: <Long list of mean, and inappropriate words> Him; fine, Hold them off, I'll go Carriers...
One time I played a 3v3 on one of the big maps with a very long rush distance. A few minutes into the game, I look to see what my partners are doing, and one of them has built nothing but a Refinery and an Engineering Bay. After loading his SCVs into the Command Center, he exclaims, "Wish me luck!" and starts floating across the map. Well, about 7 minutes into the game he finally lands in the other team's base, unloads, and starts upgrading to Planetary Fortress...
20 Marines and 10 Zealots were awaiting his arrival.
My friend made his pylon at 9/9 with 300 minerals and 4 probes queued up in his nexus.
Edit: And got cannon rushed with the first cannon up before his pylon completed.
Double Edit: And then pulled all 9 probes off of minerals and chased around the building probe through the range of his cannons never managing to kill it and losing all 9 probes.

You get teammates that want to rush? Lucky. I get teammates that tell me they're going to mass Battlecruisers and get crushed by triple 4gate.

Learn Day9 noob.
I maintain that there should be a special font for sarcasm/parody on the internet. It just doesn't work with plain text and no voice inflections.
Altough im an fan of team games...there is an section that i despise.That is 2v2 random.... I still have the chills when i remember my first games.It was the first time i was placed in bronze(in 1v1 i got into plat and in 3v3 also in plat...not bragging...just stating it..to compare it with the 2v2 stuff) So..in like the second match after the placement ones...thats like the 7 game....i was playing random at that time..in team games...i got terran..and my ally was toss,against an toss and terran.So mostly an mirror match TPvsTP.I started doing the 3 rax build..and getting also tanks and medivacs.I didnt really looked in my allys base until like the 8 min....all he had like 3 gates and like 3 zeals.When i ask him "what are u doing?",he said"im going for DT...so pls try to defend me"...i go like "ok....hope ur right". I mass an good amount of marine/marauders/medivacs with some tanks. Our oponents went MM and voids.I managed to hold them..with heavy casualties,while my ally was taking heavy hits from cloacked banshees(he didnt had robo).I managed to kill those banshees and i managed to expo meanwhile.And we managed to make an desperation push...and he used his DTs....We ended up winning cause theyr terran didnt scaned,altought he had an full energy OC.....my ally just slipped his 7 DTs into the terrans base and started killing every building in sight.They left....but i managed to get an glimpse of the toss forces...he already teched to carriers..and if he would stayed..he might had posed an threat....cause i only had like 10 marines..as anti air..and my ally had like only DTs.
From then i abandoned 2v2...not forever..but until one of my best buddies starts playing sc2.
I had a partner that didnt built a single scv the whole game I was so speechless that i didnt say anything game ended pretty soon (12 minutes mark) after watching replay i could hold up but just gave up ...
We both picked Random and both ended up as Zerg. He tells me to do a mass zergling all in rush at exactly 6 minutes. Well, 6 minutes and 13 seconds rolls around and he dies to 5 marines and 3 mauraders because he didn't make a single zergling.
I played a 3v3 today on Arakian Citadel (or wtv) where my terran teammate did this:
Me: Hey green, can you wall off, I want to reaper them without getting scouted Teammate: Sure...
Build: SCV, SCV, depot, depot, depot, depot
Me: You walled off the wrong ramp! Him: I know, I wanted to make sure nobody could come that way. Me: There is no entrance from that ramp, its enclosed. Him: Oh Ok.
Build: SCV depot depot barracks (#1) depot depot
My reapers raped all three players, but when I looked over at my teammate at the 12min mark, he had 10 marines and about 100 supply lol.
I just hate every single moronic bronze <> gold level player I encounter on Arakan Citdel - because almost every single freaking one builds their nexus/hatchery up on the close expos BEFORE THE ROCKS ARE KILLED.
On the 3v3 map Quicksand, my P ally expands to one of the golds in the center at 14 and proceeds to be killed by 4 Zerglings. He's done this multiple times.. >.<

Dude, I was playing 2v2 and we were both zerg, against two (what appeared to be) noob terran. So naturally, I go 6pool, and I tell my teammate to do that too. As my six lings are approaching the other team's base, I notice that my teammate has not produced a single ling! I asked him if he went 6pool and he replied: "Yeah, but why do I need to build six of them?" I look at his base and sure enough, he was half way to building six spawning pools...
I ended up destroying one of the terrans with my lings and the game ended in the next 10 minutes when my teammate brought to bear the full might of his six pools.
Erm, for clarification, we ended up base trading, and since the other terran attacked my teammate, he had decided to make his way through all 6 pools before getting to my base. That bought me enough time to just pull it off.
My favorite is when I use one of my precious scans to find out what the enemy is producing, see fast stargates and warn my allies that voids are coming....and then no one but me gets any AA.
GRRRRRRR
On the other side I creeped my ally out of half of his base by accident and forced him to proxy his stargates, which got destroyed and rightfully earned me some serious BM.
I 2v2 with an IRL friend, he doesn't play alot so we just mess around mostly... Anyways I told him to try to get some cheap shots in with his collosi (he had like 7 of them) on an opponent Zergs misplaced units (next to a cliff etc) but made it very clear that he can't lose those collosi because if he does we won't survive the next attack. So he walks up with the collosi and starts attacking, Zerg reacts quickly and starts moving up a nearby ramp. I told him on vent "Ok, good, pull them back fast, now.". Next thing he starts laughing on vent (signifying that these 7 collosi can take out all the Zerg units themselves). Ofcourse the collosi all die in like 2 seconds when the roaches get close enough. We lose 1 minutes later to a hydra/roach/marine attack which we would easily have held of with his collosi. He vastly overestimated the strength of the collosi.
Needless to say I held a 30 minute lecture after the match on how worthless collosi are without something protecting them.
My ally killed my Command Center, thinking it was some rocks (I killed them alone 2 minutes before), he felt so ashamed he played ridiculously good for the rest of the game.
4v4, teammate lifts to the natural and builds an ebay and upgrades his cc to a pf. I think he was flying a cc around somewhere to try to pf an opponent but I was too busy dying at that point since he had no units.

One time had had a teammate who was Zerg. He proceeded to 6 pool, but instead of making lings once it finished, he build two spine crawlers in his main. For the rest of the game he made 0 drones. he then made a Queen and somehow eventually got a Hydralisk. The enemy moved their army in front of our base, I scouted that movement with a probe, and they proceeded towards my base. Luckily, I was able to hold them off, long enough for my Zerg ally to move his 1 Hydralisk and 1 Queen behind the enemies army. My Zerg buddy's 2 units were slaughtered and our opponents moved in to kill him. while his base was getting destroyed he left the game - not before saying "wow way to help out crazy".
I had a terran on LT earlier attempt to wall off his choke near the natural with 7 supply depots or so before making a barracks, despite his ~1000 minerals. He lost around 5-6 scvs to one ling trying to build it, and then eventually made a reactor barracks at about the 8 minute mark, and soon after died to mutas.
Each person shared a base with 1 other ally. I was zerg, my ally was protoss. Here's what he did:
-Blocked off the ramp with buildings so I couldn't hatch at expo. Then the ramp gets attacked by zerglings. He had no units to defend, my zerglings couldn't get out to help. -Blocked my expo drone with a probe. I kill the probe. He goes bat shit insane at me in all caps, and sends zealots one by one into my main mineral line to kill my drones just because of that one probe. -Enemy attacks my expo, but he had blocked off the ramp with buildings AGAIN and my units couldn't get out of the main. On top of that, he never built anything but zealots, which were rallied to INSIDE his base, so they couldn't get out either. -Still continuously sends zealots in groups of 1-2 to target-attack my drones -_- -Still yelling at me in all caps about the probe.
And then of course some dude on the other team comes out with 10 voids by this time and rolls us over.

My teammate cannon rushed me. It was a normal 3v3, he can clearly see the vision of all my units, We're on the same side of the map and he cannon crept all the way to my mineral line with four cannons and then asked why sc2 was bugging out and why his cannons weren't attacking the probes. You could say I was almost as stupid for not noticing what he was doing and stopping him but the other guy and I just though he was being a nice and was trying to make a cannon defensive line.

You could try reporting him and other teamkillers to blizzard. I heard they punish people who blatantly attack their own team.
Maybe one report won't get him punished, but if he does it in many games and lies about "cannons bugging out" then maybe he will get punished.

Yeah I heard they do that too and its a good thing. But he honestly did make a mistake and never actually hurt any of my units. He was expecting the cannons to start attacking my probes because he honestly thought I was an enemy. It was really annoying at the time but we were making fun of him and joking with him at the end of the match and he took it all well and appologized so it was worth the loss for the laugh.

Yeah well - you got that wrong... try to read what he wrote in his post before commenting maybe
Not quite on-topic, but these talks about seemingly insane strategies reminded me of something. I played a ranked 3v3 against some diamond players (my team is Silver). We did kind of OK, we did some damage before they repelled our first push, expanded while we did it, yadda yadda. At some point they completely rolled over us with a ridiculously massive army.
As it turns out, our scouts were killed before they reached the natural of the one guy who fast-expanded, and by that I mean he went depot, rax, cc with no marines or gas. In fact, he built zero marines until about 7 minutes into the game, at which point he built about 7 reactored barracks. Hats off to that guy. Had we rushed him first, his teammates might've mentioned him in this thread. Instead, he won the day.
I just had a teammate yell at me in a 2v2 because I massed zealots against maruaders and not stalkers. He yelled at me that stalkers counter maruaders and zealots suck against them even with charge. We lost and he continued to rage its my fault because i don't know unit counters.
i'm just waiting for someone writing something like:
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
My friend who I'm in plat for 2v2 with got nydus wormed on Tempest. Our armies were in the middle of the map as we were containing, so the worm did a bit of damage. A few minutes later I hear another worm pop, and a second later I spot lings flooding out of the same corner of his base where he didnt have any vision. So I tell him to leave something there to stop any more worms. Another few minutes later another worm pops in the same place, because of course he didn't leave any units there. I'm getting pretty frustrated at this point, repeatedly telling him to keep something there and hunt down the overlord giving vision. He still doesn't leave anything there after the third one, and so what do you know.... Another minute later a fourth worm pops in the same place.
His rationale for not bothering with putting a cannon/stalker/void there? "Surely Zerg wouldn't try and do it in the same place that many times"
Not the most annoying but happened yesterday, was playing 3v3 with a z in opponent team. It was a shared main map that is easily wallable. I start walling my side, see my allies building near their main buildings. I then proceed to finish my wall and go over to the other entrance and start filling that up as well. Being P I leave a 1 width opening that I plug first with a probe and later with a zealot. Both which my allies kill instead of asking me to move them or asking for share (at which point I quit the game).
So I was playing a 2v2 vs a zerg and he nydus worm me. We hold it off, and then, another one pops. My teammate is yelling at me to put something there, but I said "Surely Zerg wouldn't try and do it in the same place that many times." It turns out the zerg did it 4 times in the match in the same spot. What a noob.
In all seriousness, my 2v2 partner and I were platinum and trying for diamond and half of our losses were from him getting cannoned or 6 pool. (I'm Z he is P). We finally got into diamond though.

teammate proceeds to push out with late roaches. 3 reapers backdoor into his base 2 roaches pop from the eggs The four roaches proceed to a cross-map rally point while 3 reapers begin to attack the spawning pool. I remind my teammate to defend vs reapers with roaches The roaches arrive at cross-map rally, sit there 3 reapers destroy his spawning pool, hatchery, roach warren, gas Teammate suicides units on terran wall gg
Hmm. Recently played a 2v2 were my teammate decided to mine with one scv, and proceeded to build refineries on every single gas geyser on the map with his other scvs... even mine. I asked him what he was doing and he responded.. "I control the gas".
I was in a 4v4 with a terran who built 2 supply depot walls outside his base but within the path between our allied bases, in a way that blocked any of us off from reinforcing him or each other. I kept having to ask him to lower them so I could get through, and he would keep putting them back up after I passed.

You could say I was almost as stupid for not noticing what he was doing and stopping him but the other guy and I just though he was being a nice and was trying to make a cannon defensive line.
Something similar happened to me in a diamond PvZ 1v1 on Metapolis. The guy cannon rushed... one of the empty bases. I was really confused by what I was seeing in his base, suspecting sneaky proxies or something but no troops were coming. Then like 8 minutes in he says, "Wtf... you're not bottom left??"
My roommate's asked his teammate to proxy so the dude build his WHOLE base in the middle of the map, while his equally stupid enemies rallied their troops to my friend's base and killed him. It's sad to see 20+ marines walking through your ally's base but not attacking...
2v2 Me: Hi, gl hf Ally: Hi, im teching to broodlords Ally - doesnt make a single combat unit Enemies: double 4-gate, eat us alive
On twilight fortress: Me: im going to nuke both of red's bases in the main Ally: Ok Ally sends his brood lords there, and then moves them into the nuke AoE Ally: $%^&* you
game the other night T partner, a P scouts him and kills his scv that's building his rax, and didn't notice so the rax is sitting there at 70% for like 2mins before he starts typing, "dude my rax is bugged it just stopped working and I can't click on the scv"

dear god the same thing happened to me. It took decent drone micro to fight off my own ally, and get enough zerglings to kill him because he was making marines to kill me. All this time my 2 real opponents were just macroing up like crazy. By the time I got any econ going I got hit with two 100 food armies and QQ/GGd :-(

in a ZP v ZT on a large map, I was nydusing and stuff, ya know, my usual ground army thing. I have nydus worms in each of our expansions doing my Hydra roach infestor thing. My teammate's base gets attacked so I unload all my army into his base. We easily destroy the siege tanks, encroaching army, etc. and we go back to breathe a sigh of relief. We immediately start a counter attacK, but before we leave, I spot an enemy nydus worm! ah ha! gotcha! sniped it.
we attack together vs planetary fortress, and I'm rallying roaches to my nydus entrance to reinforce easily. We end up dying, because that rogue nydus near my teammate's expo I smartly destroyed.....was actually my own. We lost this because I couldn't reinforce quick enough.
Partner is zerg and he says "ok dude mass up an army quick i'm going to double expand" and I don't care too much about my 2v2 RT so i welcomed the challenge of holding someone off 2v1. Massed up MMM and did a bit of harassment and drops while he got his 3 bases saturated. Then for some reason he starts massing up spine crawlers (like 20 of them at our entrance)... Now it's too late for me to be able to hold them off so our armies collide and of course good ol spinecrawlers to the rescue... Still no units being made at all. I keep engaging and hoping i can cripple one of them and wait for him to do something. BUt instead he expands yet again and still has made NO UNITS.
Needless to say we eventually got overwhelmed when I ran out of minerals and he still had made barley any army at all.
Must have been Beta or really early release version, but once a teammate and me was playing PP 2on2 on that lava map (dunno the name), we scouted that our opponents are pretty weak, so we decided to make some bad shit^^ so we ended up with 2 200/200 Collosus Armies. then suddenly they came with air. this was epic facepalm :D but in the end. we had like every expansion available on the map (besides their naturals), so we ended up winning anyways. but it was so fun, to see 400 supply collosus die^^

sorry bro, I was sleepy back then
anyway, once on 4v4 playing 3 zerg+1toss this terran is on the middle mineral. Knowing that he dont even wall off and ended up getting double 6-pooled and killed him (didnt even lift off his CC)
he called us noob and for the rest of the match keep broadcasting about our every movement to the opposition
we still win in the end and thanks him for his shoutcast and he just left :D

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 played a 3v3 last night where I'm sure my opponents were feeling a bit of this. My team is an arranged Silver group (bronze/silver/diamond players in 1v1), but BNET drops our silver Protoss player while the game is loading. We decide to give it a shot anyway, and one of the opponents proceeds to cannon rush... the diamond player among us who didn't drop. It fails miserably, turning the game into essentially a 2v2 where we have income from an extra base and they have a crippled third wheel. Needless to say, we crush them so hard I felt bad.
Looking at the opponents afterwards, two of them were in platinum together on a different arranged team... and the cannon rusher is a bronze random. That's gotta be frustrating.
Maybe this doesnt count, but i was playing a 2v2 with a real life freind while talking on skype.
I Shout half way through the game, "IM GOING MASS RAVENS" and so my freind precedes to try and break down my supply wall which i mass repair, after like another 15 minutes, i lose all my ravens to vikings (not before killing like 6 with Seeker missiles :D) i then accidentally lower my supply depot and my freind comes with like a ton of lings and starts killing my marines while i a-attack his lings back. The opponent then scans us shooting each other, probs laughing there heads of at me and my friend being noob teammates, comes with two maxed armies, and proceed to steam roll us. good times

that guy is fucking cool and i'm going to do that
lol, thats what i was thinking. Defo going to be dong this tonight. Yeah i know, im an arsehole
A 2v2 game, I bunker-rush one of the guys and my teammate refuses to defend my base when i am counter attacked. He thought i was too cheap:p if he would just have attacked the 10 lings in my base we would have won...
So I watching two of my real life friends play 2v2. One of them believes "shared unit control sucks", and so will not give shared unit control, but will gladly accept it.
So, the game goes on for awhile. Said friend takes ONLY his army to the middle of the map (even though he can control the other person's army), where it promptly gets 2v1 gangbanged since he didn't tell our other friend to go to the middle of the map with him. Then starts yelling "See? This is why shared unit control sucks."
and goes on and on and on about why they lost because of shared unit control...
I don't play SC2 but I will relate a story that my friend told me where he legitimately went batshit insane with rage (normally this guy is cool as a cucumber, takes quite a bit to make him angry).
Playing 2s, the other guy is "macroing hardcore," aka playing Sim City with 2 Barracks and totally pumping out those Marines 15 minutes in the game.
The guy gets Marines + Tanks + Medivacs ready, loads em all up, hovers 5 Medivacs over the Zerg's main Hatch WITHOUT dropping the units. His reasoning? "Oh I was waiting for my other Medivac to catch up." The Medivac was still in construction at the Starport.
So obviously the Zerg noticed by then and had enough time to build Spore Colonies (Spore Crawlers, I think they're called?) and shoot down the Medivacs. And then when his Medivac was out he was like "Yo where'd my army go?"
True story. Even I raged when my friend retold this to me.
2v2, we were toss and they were zerg, I told the guy to wall up, but he said I was noob, I ignored him, went with my warp stalker build, he got 6 pooled and he's like help me, and I was like you should have built a wall, anyways, I got no troops. then he called me a noob. Still won though, but he was calling me a retard the entire time. And he refused any help I tried giving him, and I asked for some minerals later on and hes like "HAHA, whos noob now, get your own minerals fag."

2v2, playing custom game...dude was so newb he thought building supply depots around the perimeter would create some sort of wall of defense, like a fucking castle..
I tell my protoss partner who rushed mother ship to not use vortex because the opponents had banelings, he replied with whats vortex? I was like ok you dont know nothing bad will happen... Boom vortex;s opponents banelings with both our armies... i cried...
One time my toss team mate was clearly afraid of getting supply blocked so he proceded to make nothing but pylons. When the enemy attacked his base he was at 12/108 supply.
I play a lot of 4v4 on Megaton, so the noobiest thing a teammate of mine has done is dedicate all him time and money to walling off the 2 sides with planetary fortresses supported by seige tanks and missile turrets. It was insanely funny at the time, but it was pretty nooby

So I asked, and its happens that he was playing on my base. We didn't have shared control, but as we were doing the exact build he never noticed that he forgot to move back and that he was clicking in empty air. Now he will be remembered for that at least till Starcraft 4.

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.

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

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.

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.
i don't do RT very much because of the horror stories described in this thread. i remember a 4v4 where my ally cannon rushed and placed the cannons in vision of the opponent then complained and quit when none of us came to help him defend against probes killing his cannons.
4v4 random megatron. i do randoms team games when im rly bored. some dipshit terran said "walloff" to me, when the other team make up was 3T/1toss. I told the kid hes a dumbshit and walling off is only needed against zergs. I then got 2star void, when its time for me to expand after 3voids, i saw lower a sup depot, kid ignores me, so i kill the ebay, kid brings 15rines to kill one of my voids. it turns into a civil war. shit was hilarious.
was playing 4v4 random where it was me(z) immediate ally(p) the others t and p. Anyway the terran get s told to wall off only to say that theres no zergs playing. Next thing he knows is that the combined 4v4 army walks into his base, takes out his army, his allys army, there bases then wow its 2v4 with the noob terran raging at us for not helping (i lost half my army and didnt make a dent)

walling is usually not worth it if you dont wanna block melee from coming in. otherwise you'll just end up losing those structures you are using to wall off with. so to me it sounds like he was right and theres not much to complain about.
I havent played 4v4 since beta so I go into a placement match. 1 of our Protoss doesn't do anything for 2 min
Idiot Protoss: "Hey I am sending a probe to all of your bases just incase I die" I build cannons at his base just incase while FE IP: "Hey blue why you build things near my base?" Me: "To protect you"
He gets 10 zealots the entire game and he dies very fast
Last one was a protoss which did nothing to help us while we got crushed by a good team, he had a pretty big army, then he went out with mass stalker and colossus... but no upgrades :/ he got crushed by hydras + corruptors concave.
In 22 RT, I got one terran ally and was terran. We were up against 2 protoss. Him : "I get the ghosts".
He did get 3/4 ghosts, but nothing else, the whole game :x with crappy emps.
44 RT : I got attacked by one team mate, so I took scv in command center and took island, this ally got 6 pooled :D
33 RT : ally building tones of barrack factory, but no units.
I stopped RT and try to avoid it, but it's fun, it puts some challenge =)
i was bord so i decided to do some 3v3 as zerg (im protoss usually). in my first grading match i get matched with some random troll who 6 pools then sends all his lings and drones to backstab his allys(which happens to be me). needless to say we lost rather quickly... i was thinking that was a one off and i'll just report him and get on with things so i hit the find match button again only to find that the troll is on my team again...
Okay well I was playing a 3v3, and one of the guys leaves after ~1 minute, so i'm like, okay we got this, and decided to go mass VR thinking we would be okay in the 2v3 with the extra money, but my other ally make 0 units, and goes spine crawler, when we got attacked with DT i said make Overseers, and he left the game. So here I am with 6 Stargates, in a 3v1 with DT on the map.
Needless to say I turtled, and won with a 200/200 VR army because everyone else was noobs (AKA I'm on TL and therfore better than everyone else) If proof is necessary I'll post a rep
my teammate sent his probe to my base and threw down a pylon. i didn't think much of it, but when he started throwing down cannons i was utterly confused.
he didn't realize i was his ally and tried cannon rushing me >_>
Well, in WC3 you can use alt+qq to quit a game. I am so glad they took it out in sc2.
I remember sometimes I would type "f m to get the maphack you need to hold the alt key then press Q very, very fast." and typically 1-2 players would leave in a 4v4

That's nothing. I have a friend who attacks my units.
mmm... well i guess it would be that he just saves up money, doesn't get any depots no racks but he gets an engineering bay, then spams 5-6 CCs and lifts them up and takes them over our opponents base and lands them and make them PFs and I did work!! :D

He's right. NesTea FEs in 1v1, not in 3v3.
I don't know where your 3v3 team is on the ladder, but if you FE into mutaling in 3v3 (depending on the map - most maps in fact) you will absolutely lose to an aggressive opposing team with dual zergs + a non zerg (doesn't even matter what race actually) third teammate. They don't even have to 6 pool - any number of aggressive openings will seal the game. Even in 2v2, it's not safe to FE as zerg against dual zerg on most split base maps.
Some of these posts illustrate genuine cases of 'griefing' - fine. But many of these situations look fine on the surface.
Example:

without knowing more about the game, your ally could just be going into macro mode but was pushed too early. This is a very common situation in 2v2s.

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.

I look at his base and there are 6 Spine Crawlers, his initial Overlord and ZERO Drones ...
told my team mates in the begining of a 4v4 that i would do BCs. some bro says he'll kill my CC if i go through with it. i ignore it and go cloak banshee harass taking down ~20 workers with 2 banshees, also floated a factory and kiled about 30 scvs with 5 hellions. meanwhile i expo'd and had 7 BCs out at ~13 min mark. i move out and my team mate kills my CC and all my starports. wtf do they expect from me? the bro who did that was still at lings only as well. GG.
I was playing a 2v2 a couple days back, I was zerg, my teammate was protoss. At about the 10 minute point in the game, I look at his base and I realized that he hadn't upgraded to warpgate tech yet. I didn't mention anything about it, instead focusing on my game. At about the 20 minute mark, he's still on gateway tech so I decided I should probably say something.
Me: You not getting warpgates? Him: No, too early.
I don't think I even responded back. It was now 21 minutes in the game and it was too early for warpgates. Take note protoss pros, that is how you dominate the competition! Gateway tech all the way!

This could be acceptable. If you partner was under attack the entire game and took a lot of economic damage and was never able to build units with more then three gateways at once there would be no point in him getting warptech because he'll never be able to use it. I had a game where we were against double zerg and they both 6 pooled me and kept up the pressure with roaches afterwards. For the first ten minutes I was constantly loosing probes and having to replenish them and I wasn't able to pump units out of two gateways constantly. Meanwhile my allie bunkered in and was never attacked but did very little to help me defend. Ten minutes in I somehow manage to stay in the game after basically 1v2ing the whole time and my partner starts to get on my case about not having warpgates. It was very annoying and I hope it wasn't you
Well, my friend and I were on the "doing" end of one of these stupid moments in a 4v4. He was P, I was Z, he went 5 nexus mass probe and I went 4 hatch mass drone. We single handedly killed two of their players, our two allies defended the counter from the other two, and then we doom-dropped a couple hundred workers into their (shared) base and won. I'm really glad they never made anything that flew or did splash.
I was playing this game with a real life friend of mine...and...well...it was ridiculous. He had told me that he was on some prescription medication and that he could potentially be messed up, but I was like...meh you'll be fine. So we play. I randomed zerg and he plays terran. Anyways, things are pretty standard until the enemies first push wipes out our wall in we had (protecting our naturals). My teammate responds by building about 6-8 supply depots across the gap to rebuild the wall. At this point he no longer makes an army. The enemy responds by nuking the wall and then my teammate rebuilds the exact wall with supply depots again. The enemy, again, nukes the wall and then proceeds by nuking all his scvs and most of his base. My teammate insisted on rebuilding the supply depot wall NO MATTER WHAT and kept trying 3-4 more times. At this point I'm yelling at my friend over vent and all he can say is "I'm sorry, I don't know what's going on right now"...as he gets nuked into oblivion. I then decide that I'm just going to do one last attack before I leave the game...but to my astonishment...this attack ends up winning the game.
During a team game I was zerg, had a terran teammate and a zerg teammate, the zerg took out destructable rocks at a gold expo, but then didn't take it for like 3 minutes. So the terran took that expo. The zerg then raged at the terran saying he cleared the rocks and demanded he lift his OC and leave, but he didn't so the zerg killed terran's OC. Then the terran proceeded to rage at the zerg, and went and killed MY entire base (I guess he couldn't tell the two zergs apart) all the while me telling him he had the wrong zerg. He was actually arguing with me, telling me why he was killing my base, as I was telling him he had the wrong person. Apparently he couldn't even tell names apart.

Its 50-50 for the research. And the ability to pick where you spawn units is more than enough justification to spend the money, even if you are a little hurt economically.

ZP vs TP. I was Z. My opponent went afk for the first 3 minutes, came back and was like "so did we win?" i was like "dude, wtf" he replied "we didn't win, ok" goes afk for another 5 minutes. it was a bronze level game though, so i won =P
2v2, ZZvPP. I was on the Z team, and im trying to coach my teammate and play at the same time.
Me: you only have 5 drones (spawning pool, no gas)... you should make more Him: oh ok Me: (a few minustes later) still only 6 drones? Him: i made spine crawls
so at the end of the game (15min mark) he has been dead for 5 min and i lose the barely lose the 1v2 (they were really bad, im in bronze 1v1 and i almost won lol)
so lets see what he made in 10 minutes... 4 spine crawlers 7 spore crawlers (they had literally NO air) 2 zerglings 13 drones, all used to make things 0 queens
thats it. honestly i dont know how he is in bronze 2v2, hes just that bad. also i watched the replay, and he had like 600 minerals (0 gas ofc) and he just watched. didnt leave the game or send me the minerals. he just kept them, probably to build a new hatch with his 0 harvesters
forgot to add the evo chamber for the spores, no ups btw because he had no gas
in a 4v4 one of my random protoss teammates attacks his nexus as soon as the match started with his 6 probes. then he sends all 6 probes to an opponents base. we were all like "wtf man wat r u doin" and he didnt reply. we still manage to win the game and right at the end he says "oh we won lol"

he lifts off again then lands next to my ramp, nowhere near any resources, then starts to long distance mine.

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.

I was zerg with a terran team mate. he expected me to control both his units and my massive army at the same time. it just wasn't possible....he never helped me attack either so we got steam rolled.
We were playing a 4v4 when suddenly I get cannon rushed, I'm playing protoss so I place a forge as soon as I spot the cannons going up and place a cannon perfectly to stop any more cannons from morphing, suddenly my own ally comes "don't worry I'm here to help" and mistakes my cannon for the enemies cannon destroying it with 2 zealots leaving me totally open again. I just f10 N...
My random, zerg, 2v2 Ally is AFK for the first 2 minutes (approx) of the game, finally starts mining and says "rush". His 10pool failed, he died to the counter and raged at me for a while after the game. I guess he didn't notice the game clock.
My zerg partner opens with a pretty standard 11overpool, I think he knows what he's doing. I'm in plat and we were favored so it was looking good. Then I see that in fact he went 11overlord 11 evo chamber. I call him out on this and he complains that someone changed his keybinds as he got run over by early ling/marine pressure.
My friend stromed my whole marine ball (40+ cca).... then done it again couple mins later.. she then said she didnt realized i was playing terran (i was random)
as a top 100 world 2v2 ladder player i decided to have some fun in 2v2 random won all my placements matches with ease even tho i had horribly allies in 4/5 games.
i was hoping i could do the same in 3v3 random but damn how wrong i was. short version
me macros like a badass fast expanding good forcefields and colossus control preventing harass and constantly spending all my resources-teching up while fighting a war at 3 fronts. ally 1 starting the game with building 4 supply depots as his great wall of china. after 12 min not being attacked a single time he had 10 marines. ally 2 walled himself in with 25 cannons and was going for voids had 4-5 of em while i had 2 expos and 150 supply and that was after surving attacks-harrash from drops-stealth units all the time a decent player would have had 25 voids atleast at that time.. so basically i was fighting alone against 3 opponents they were not good at all. but even a high level player cant take down 3 high bronze-silver players. i almost got em alone with superb micro-macro. what pissed me off the most was that i would have won if my protoss ally actually would have moved his void rays out of his base and aided my it was SO close. i dont think i ever will play 3v3 random again after seeing how bad peoples actually are. my allyes was as low as they could get in bronze. a 80% lose or more.
this story is not as bad as some other ive heard in the thread but still pretty bad. i was more than twice as high points wise than the best opponent. and the badest opponent was almost twice as high as my best ally -.-

Qxc did it in a day[9] daily, just thought I'd point it out :D
4v4 Team game, "Partner" turtles for voids. I crush the other guy's army and get 8 orbitals over the next five minutes. At ~18 minutes into the game he finally mined out his main and decided it was time to expand. I floated over an orbital next to his nexus and dropped ~30 mules down and told him to learn to expand earlier and not to turtle to voids.
Another 4v4
2x Turtles for voids on megaton and the terran lifts off for the gold.
As zerg I expo'd to the guys old base and all four naturals by ~12 min. They realize they have nowhere except the other gold or the opponents bases to mine from. Insults were hurled.
As a rule I grief people on my team who turtle for: Carriers, Voids or insane one base crappy builds that do nothing when we're well ahead.
One game, the enemy team did the Day9 monobattle, so I joined in and attempted mass sentry. Indeed, I had become the noobiest teammate after getting owned by cannons.

Thanks to my genius team-mates i got placed in gold for my 4v4 random..
We get into a game... all 3 team-mates leave.. i have to set everyones workers working.. make like a 9 pool early gas 3/4 hatches and just pour out zerglings... Profit .. lets just say i didn't get many gg's after they all left.
I still keep the replay of a random 2v2... my toss partner builds 4 zels while proceeding to take 4 base and build up (LITERALLY) 15k minerals before decided he had enough and dropped 6 stargates...
I tried to explain that he had enough for rought 1200 zel but it didnt' really sink in.
In a 4v4 on a map where everyone shared a base connected to one another, a terran teammate worker rushes me killing all of my workers and then killing the workers that came out. He then says "aren't you the enemy?" FAIL
Just played a 3v3, one ally literally went and suicide his army 1v3 and got pissed when I didn't come and suicide after him. Then he left, whispering/harassing me etc. We won the game like 5 minutes later, b/c he had like 3k minerals and when he left I could spend them. Sad part is the guy was rank 1 diamond (rt, in a shit div.) and was whispering me saying "I'm one of the best players on this server.", ect. I wish I screenshotted it
me: dude, get a lot of ground units 10 mins later me: wtf.. why the fuck dont u have anything? me: why are u making thors? teammate: so i can kill medivacs me: ....
3v3, conversation with my zerg teammate, I'm terran, we're on a large map:
mrcarey: 6pool goodDay: don't 6pool, do like an 8 or something goodDay: 6 wrecks your econ mrcarey: so you have to rush behind me
(Even 8pool isn't good for econ, but I'm trying to comprimise)
Anyway, by the time he has 6 zerglings, I have 1 marine. Zerglings are faster than marines, and he chose not to wait, so he attacks and loses his 6 zerglings instantly to an opponents 6pool+Queen.
mrcarey: thats game :/ drohead [other teammate]: how we lose? mrcarey: u not playin offensively
Noobiest thing teammate can do: try the riskiest cheese in the game, give up instantly when it fails, then blame teammates.
I had a teammate whose sole gameplan was to do zergling drivebys as he called them, resulting in him sacrifing huge amounts of lings every now and then without doing any damage whatsoever

ah shiet my bad xD hahha doing funday monday challenges in random quickmatches are absolutely hilarious though.
Last night a good friend of mine did the dumbest thing I have ever seen, not only in a 4v4, not even just in Starcraft, but perhaps in my entire history of gaming. Knowing that we were up against a bunch of cheesing zergs, he immediately walled in with a bunch of supply depots. A group of zerglings then promptly walked right into his base and raped him.
How did it happen, you ask? Surely, he must have lowered his depots and forgot to raise them back up. Wrong! He walled off a random section of cliff. His ramp was completely open. We lost. I cried with laughter.
Join a game, 2v2, teammate says GG and leaves. Ended up winning as it was bronze(lul) message him after asking why he left he told me that he had the hydra portrait so it wasnt worth playing

hahaha, yeah, sorry bout that. Completely forgotten about posting it. I'm at work at the moment. Will post when i get home.............
Well, i had a quick look, couldnt find the replay. If i ever come across it ill post it.
Anyway, last night playing 4v4, my 2 helpful zerg allies start the game by saying rush. I explain that we were both doing the griffith 4 0C build so a rush wouldn't really be an option for us. They then call us noobs for not rushing, and say that rushing is the only way do win in this game. Anyway, they proceed to 6pool. Their first lings are up, they decide not to combine forces and instead attack at different points. Ok rush failed, time to transition. Not for these guys though. They spend the next 35 mins of the game suiciding groups of zerglings, all the while berating me and my mate for their failed rush (it was all our fault you see). We lost in the end, but would have been a much closer match, if they'd only transitioned.
Another 4v4, this time on megaton. I spawn on the inside position (furthest from ramps), and because im doing the 4oc build end up taking my first expansion at around 3.55/4.00. place the CC, then go back to my base. Fanny about there for 30 seconds, then go back to the expansion, but its not there anymore, theres a hatchery in its place. "mate why you destroy my cc?" "That will teach you to take my expansion". Never mind that there arnt set naturals on that map, and only one nat had been taken (ie 2 others, right next to the cc he destroyed).
Fucking team games, i enjoy them, i just hate the people i play with
Pretty normal happenings for team games, but happened again last night to me.
4 v 4.
First teamate 6 pools, fails pretty hardcore...goes afk. Second teamate expands, suicides all his units in to the enemy base, and when their answer comes knocking at his base, he gets his base raped, while I struggle to protect him. His last group of units he again suicides, then he rage quits, saying we won't help him attack. Third Teamate actually seems really competent, up to the point where he converted 40 of his drones into static defense(to "protect his tech"), asks me for mins to build drones(i give him 1k mins), and then is basically worthless the rest of the game. He did mostly knock out one opponent early though, so I give him that. Fortunately I'm a f'ing beast, and basically win 1 v 3.5. At one point in the game, I'm 3 basing as protoss vs 3 protoss, all with at least two bases. Fortunately, one decided to go mass voids/carrier/mothership vs my blink stalkers, the other went pure gateway with zero upgrades, and the other went gateway/collossi, but he really sucked, and I don't even know what really happened to him. They basically mined out their entire side of the map. I thought I had lost the game up until the point of my final push, when I suddenly realized I was taking all their tech out, and they had no units to answer with. Oh, and them expo-ing to my allies nat, because everything else was mined out.

Sure there is a natural on Megaton. All the nearby mineral patches are the one for the people playing at the ramp and the one further away is for the player, who has a safer main base by being in the back of everybody. thats just fair that you take the riskier expansion. and I always (even if i play AT) kill the expansion of my ally which take my natural.. dont be too greedy or deal with it (getting your expand killed).
Ontopic: Played a random 2on2 some time ago. We are Z (me) P (ally) versus PP. I scout that they are going for doubel 4gate and tell my ally to get a 4gate as well. When the push came, I had like 25ish roaches. My opponents had (together) like 18ish stalker, 4-5 Zealots and some sentries. My ally just build 2 Stalker, 1 Zealot and 1 Immortal (he ended up going for 2gate FE into late robo ...) was pretty pissed, so I left with "yea, got like the biggest noob ally in the world"...
after this I played another 2on2 with getting the SAME ally (this time as a zerg). knewing he was bad, I choosed to go for an insane macrobuild. just as my unitproduction kicks in, our opponents attack, i tell him "just kite, will have TONS of unit in a sec", he ended up losing all his zerglings and his fastexpansion... proceeded to go mutas on 1 base ... I just mass roaches and kill both of the opponents with my far superior economy
the funniest thing was the convo at the start of the second game:
me: "god matchmaking hates me" him: "me too" me: "why? you get better allies then you are" him: "you are bad"
he was platinum with negative stats and like 1,5k in 2on2 and about 700 games (i am ~70% winrate 2on2 diamond 300 games), was pretty lol tbh^^
once i was playing a 4v4 with some friends and randoms 2 of the guys get the amazing idea to go for planetary fortress rushes and the third guy says hes gna tech straight to ultralisks at that point i just gave up and went for a planetary fortress rush as well turns out those units dont fare well against void rays
Mine would be 4v4. Terran team mate walling off and locking me and my lings inside the base whilst he the other team pick off my other allies. I kept pinging or asking for shared control but he was trolling or didn't get what I meant. I had to attack his buildings to escape in the end... just in time to get roflstomped by the opposition.
i was playing a 2v2 (RT) at scorched heaven. he (P) walled-in like an idiot until our opponents came with voidrays, and of course he had like zero anti-air. i wanted to help out, but because of his stupid wall-in, i couldnt get up the ramp. so i destroyed one of his gateways to come through -- i also could just attacked the pylon to get up, but since that was such a stupid game, screw it.
I,m protoss and I got a terran ally, I did really noticed what he was doing and concentrated on building my ball of death, when I got to ~150 supply I told him to come to attack with me and I see that all he has are ~20 marines and he built shitloads of turrets around my base on the low ground and he didn't expend (it was completely safe to expend to his nat), then they attacked. I didn't really have a chance - 200/200 army Vs 400/400 army (ZP), GG
I love playing 3on3 random so i can work on my zen attitude.
Best quotes/episodes:
* Allies leave the game saying "newb, you won't help", then I get their unspend minerals/gas, most of the time 5K/5K * Ally moving all his workers around the map to hunt down the opponent scout * My ally losing all his probes against a proxy canon not even close to his base: "100 min?" * Me terran, my ally 6 pool (as usual): "why you don't rush with me newb?" * My ally going Ultras 1 base all-in and being raped by Voidrays: "give me minerals so i can produce more Ultras plz" * My ally scouting a triple 6 pool and going hatch 24 pool 47 * Me Terran, 1 marine out, my ally getting triple 6 pool: "why you don't help bitch?" * My ally sending/losing his marines 1 by 1 to help me countering a 6pool while i keep repeating "it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, etc ...": "Help, they are attacking me now!"
Sure there is a natural on Megaton. All the nearby mineral patches are the one for the people playing at the ramp and the one further away is for the player, who has a safer main base by being in the back of everybody. thats just fair that you take the riskier expansion. and I always (even if i play AT) kill the expansion of my ally which take my natural.. dont be too greedy or deal with it (getting your expand killed).
You always kill your allies expansion? Even in arranged team games? I'll tell you straight, i'm thinking some evil stuff about you right now. I take you dont have many people who want to play team games with you. I dont understand your mentality in the slightest
One time my brother thought it would be funny to fill one of our terran allies base with creep in a 4v4 using creep tumours. We lost the game but it was funny.
The worst I've seen isn't too bad, but once on Arakan citadel, my zerg ally who wanted to take a faster natural expanded right beside the two rocks that blocked the two central naturals. As neither my other ally nor me were zerg, he basically set up one "mid-range" harvesting base with double minerals and gas.
3v3 team mate goes one base forge first 1 gate robo stargate with a total wall in building void rays collosi and zealots, and the other guy goes for 1 base nuke rush. NO NUKE FOR YOU!
playing team games, I think you see the noobiest stuff ever.
-people building 2-3 supply depots just to block ramp right in the beginning of the game -trying to kill scout scv/probe with workers and not sending them back -canon rushing a zerg player -building nothing but canons
The original post is lolololol, as well as some of the others, made my day. Worst thing I remember seeing is a guy getting three bases (in a 4v4) before making a significant army We won, but...
-people building 2-3 supply depots just to block ramp right in the beginning of the game
I saw a guy try to wall of with 4 engineering bays at the start of the game a couple of days ago . It made me completly fuck up my build order, i was laughing so much
Ask me what is she supposed to do with the blue flashy crystals (i won 1v2 anyway)
Ofc she used scvs to scout all map and atacked with them the mains of my enemies, u can guess how hard it was for them not to laught and play acordingly :D
My teammate gets cannon rush and doesn't know how to see it (even after I ping it and tell him). He gets angry and tells me that I'm a noob because I didn't 6 pooled...
Had a guy who didnt know to build add-ons. The whole game he produced nothing but marines, helions and vikings. That didnt work against the mass roach of the zerg he repeatedly attacked.
Random 4v4, I get an inbase Terran, I'm always suspicious of inbase Terrans and yap he walls off... so I try to get my expo after 2gate because I tend to just mass expand in 4v4 so I say 'Purple, can you lower the depot?', he doesn't lower, so I ask again, still doesn't lower, I ping the map, and say 'lower depot, I want to expand', he doesn't lower, my zerg teammate says 'I know how it feels'. So I'm at 800 minerals at this point and I'm like 'fuck it', and I just proceed to shoot down the depot, all of a sudden he starts attacking my nexus and I hold it off while pinging the map and my zerg teammate is like 'wtf are you doing?? he wants to expand!', so he replies with something like '<my-handle> est un traître!', I guess he didn't speak English.. that people buy the game when they don't speak English I get, that people play team games when they don't is beyond me, that people wall in a shared choke when they don't is beyond me.
I tried to explain it to him in French that I wasn't a teamkiller but my French is bad. I concocted something like 'Non! je ne suis pas un traître, je voudrais expander!'
Another guy I got starts the game with asking 'from?' so I say 'Netherlands', then replies with 'I poland', the rest of the game I tried to make clear to him that he shouldn't sacrifice zealots into cannons but the language barrier eh, he didn't seem to understand it. His intentions where good though, I got cannon rushed but I held it off with creep and spines of my own and tried to tell him that I got it and he should counter-attack, but not really apparently, he tried to help me by killing the probe killing the cannons while every cannon he made was just poked at with spines.
Another thing which was just a miracle of chance, this guy also didn't speak English, he asks 'from?' at the start and I say 'Netherlands', he says 'sorry, I no speak English' or something like that, so I try to keep it simple and ask 'you from?', he says Finland... I'm probably part of the like 20 people in this country who can express himself in Finnish and almost every Fin speak English, really a bizarre moment of chance.
As far as non-language standard bad play goes, I got this one guy who announces at the start 'I'm going DT, you?' so I reply as always 'I'm going to scout and then decide what I do.', so I scout two protoss players actually forge-fe-ing (I was playing zerg) so I ping them map and tell him 'You can attack the nexus with stalkers without the cannons hitting you.
He still goes DT's, furthermore, he keeps going dt's after failing to kill cannons with them and he just keeps making more DT's trying to kill their cannons off while they get more and more...
This was back in the day when I and 2 other was competing for the # 1 spot in our random team 4v4 division.
We did play many games with a party of 3, still counts as random team. We played often against so called AT (all team(4 player teams)) that did coordinated rushes with nonexistent micro.
In the midst of this we got an unforgettable moment when we where paired against a not that great team.
We are up against 3 Terran 1 Toss on Extinction b4 the tank nerf. We where discussing how to avoid getting blasted by tanks on this tank map. Maybe go mass air or something. We concluded that i would go void harass and my friends would build mutalisk and straight to carriers. Then teal writes: "i do infantrie" and my friend simply says "No you don't. Not agains 100 tanks"
I scout and am watching out for cheeses when i see a ping and "WTF?". Teal had made 4 supply depose BELOW his ramp forming an wall of (and it was flawed with a hole a small unit can fit through).
He wrote "I can open them and enemy cant run in."
I wrote "aha, sure?" My friends wrote: "But down there?" and "oh, you are copper."
He wrote "look" and begun to lifting and uplifting supply depose to show this strange feature.
His total amount of buildings at this time (6 minutes) was: 1 command-center (not orbital command) 2 barracks 7 supply depose (he had 3 walling off down the ramp to an in-base expansion) making him 27/67 food. 2 engineering bay. Which i noticed with my mind set to scouting.
10 s later. Ping again, only half a screen from the last one. Then he had 8 scv distance mining from the in-base expansion. With one of the supply depose down to enable this.
The entire match was epic. Very close one because we where so weak when we started go air and when they attacked i thought we where screwed, Cant describe every engagement here but you can ask for the replay if you want it.
-Die from cannon rushes / try to cannon rush and fail -Die from 6-pools / try to 6-pool and fail -Build T3 units off 1 base and lose every single one of those units in the first battle -Build mass <insert unit here> and nothing else even if enemies hard counter it -Never expand to more than 1 expo and never build more than 20-30 workers -Loose all workers to <insert harass unit here> -Kill 0 enemy workers but loose all their <insert harass unit here> -Leave all workers idle when minerals runs out in main -Say "I will build <insert unit name here>" before any scouting info whatsoever is available -Do solo pushes/attacks and loose all their units before your units can join -Send your medivacs and ravens to certain death if you give them shared control (a-move yay!) -Die to anything that is invisible or can burrow

Has no one ever had their own teammate worker rush them?
I played a random 2v2 on tempest.
I think he spawned Terran, I spawned Protoss.
I see his workers start to move out, so I think hey, he's worker rushing. I'll go rush with him, So I box all my workers and start to send them out, but then he comes into my base. I type wtf? He starts attacking my workers. He repairs his scvs and kills all my workers.
quite a number of posts in this thread is really entertaining but its alot of elitist BS too.. when you play random-team you have to be prepared to be teamed up with bronze players and as such, for example dying to a rush or panicing, isnt strange at all.
if you find stuff like that laughable maybe you should team up with other experienced players instead of playing random?
Just a few days ago, I was playing 2s with a friend. When one of the opponents gg'd and left, my teammate left also cause he thought the other guy left also. So it ended up being a 1v1 between me and the remaining guy but luckily we already had a massive advantage. I would've been super pissed if we lost.
I am Modularity, a gold random, so please forgive my macro. Lots of FML moments in the game so I thought it deserves a post.
God I wish that both teams' chat was saved in the replay file so I could see them yelling. And better than that see him defend his insane actions as making sense.
Don't play enough random team games to get a lot of bullshit, so this doesn't seem as bad as in the context of this thread. In one game we were ZT v ZZ, and I was the Z. Both of our opponents early pooled against me (I think one went 6 and the other went 10), and of course ally didn't help, though I deflected it well enough. 8 minutes in he has about 10 marines and a sensor tower.
4v4, i scout two terrans going mass marines. i warn my allies that a huge rush will be incoming, so what does my protoss ally do? respond by going mass phoenix (4 gate, and double stargate off one base -___-). needless to say, i countered with marine tank push and owned
Had a game a couple days ago, random 4v4, we scouted and saw that 2 opponents were zerg, and both threw down early pools. We're in silver, so we explained the situation and told our terran teammates to wall off to defend the coming 12 lings.
A minute later we checked, and they had properly walled off (which at our league, isn't always a given!). I was relieved until I watched the lings run up one of their ramps and see the wall, at which point our teammate immediately responded by lifting off his barracks, letting all 12 lings run into his base. Beautiful.

Lol you just don't understand how to play 1on4 4on4: just kill his hatch.
I also kill my opponent expo when he takes my natural (cause it's less vulnerable).
There is absolutely no rules in random team games, no pity. Just play dumb as newbies do, and if they're getting mad, you know what to reply: "It's just a game, BRO".

Sure I do. I have like 50 4on4 teams or even more. 600 4on4 where I only played ~30 RT. And yet everybody in my AT knows that you do not take the others natural or it will be killed. I killed round about 10 expansions of my allies in those 600 games and got my own expansion (everybody makes mistakes ) destroyed like ~ 6 times. It is like a non-written law to not take your allies expansion with the sentence of getting it killed. Tho there are some exceptions (like a crazy strat, which was announced beforehand).
And I dont understand your mentality in the slightest, just DONT TAKE your ALLIES natural and you will be fine.
Watch the Yellow Zerg. Kid is my hero. Im glad I was able to secure this kid a victory.
Oh my god. I have never seen anything like this. Seriously he has to be taking the piss. 2 evo into spore crawler. epic
Edit: Hadnt seen the post above. Its not like in team games i take peoples obvious naturals. I'd get pissed off if someone did that to me. But on maps like megaton, which have a shared "bay" of naturals, each one is fair game. First come first served. Greedy would be taking 2 of them.
I dont understand your mentality because you're only hurting yourself. Its a TEAM game. You kill someones 400 mineral investment, its going to put the whole team at a disadvantage. And dont forget, you can get banned for team killing.

We need to change the team game metagame before zergs realize just how deadly this build is.
The build was awesome. Attacking with 5 queens and 8 lings, off the creep, then building a hydra; the guys a tactical mastermind.
I particularly liked it when he built 2 evo chambers, then decided to queue 2 upgrades in only one of them. I guess he didnt mind waiting, not like he had any units to micro yet.
Oh, and the 8 pool which set him up for that magical timing window of 6 lings at 10 minutes, was another favorite

I mostly play with AT (as stated), therefore the 400 Minerals do not care as much, win most of my 4on4 games. And they will not report me, lol. And also as mentioned, Megaton has predefined naturals, do not be stubborn. It is really easy to see, whose natural is his.

I'm not being stubborn. I just dont agree in the slightest. Perhaps Megaton was the wrong map to choose as an example though. I still dont think there are naturals, but lets just agree to disagree on that one.
But what about outpost? you telling me that has naturals? or is that first come, first served?
My worst is someone who gets a forge to cannon his whole base and expects me to ???? and then usually gets DTs or some shit unit composition that will not do much damage and will not be able to have a head on fight
so im terran with my zerg buddy, we had played like 4 games up to that, and we won them all by doing cheesy stuff like 2 rax + 8 pool and little pushes. So were like lets do huge macro based play. anyway. He gets an inbase hatch with a bunch of queens and i got like 6 rax get some gas up and am unable to build any add ons.
Watch the Yellow Zerg. Kid is my hero. Im glad I was able to secure this kid a victory.
My favorite part is around the 29/30-minute mark. He's been AFK for like 5 minutes after which he returned to find his base mostly destroyed by voids. After clicking on some stuff, he finds the voids and zooms in on them, trying to get a better look at what brought about his end. He then spends the rest of the game watching the action

Sure Outpost has not predefined naturals, there your "first comes, first serves" rule is a pretty common thing, tho still you should not expand on some positions f.e. if you spawn on one of the right locations and expand then to the upper natural of the top plateau, because this one belongs imho to the top plateau. Tho on this map you still can vary, as the three expansion in the upper left and lower right corner are pretty viable, too.
Still I remember some naturalfighting on Outpost in some of my AT, but only because of fun and trashtalking in Teamspeak Should not take everything so seriously. 4on4 is just a funmode and if you do not kill the others fun, some (to a small extend) teamattacking can be fun. I dunno if you play AT on TS, but if you do and someone is pissed, because you denied his expansion or something like this, you take 4on4 way too seriously..^^

It's the same mindset as the people who go "dude, it's just a game lol" after *ninja looting* some rare item in world of warcraft.
If it really "Just a game", then why do you personaly value the game over another person's likeability towards you, and how much you piss him off?
It's like stealing someone's wallet infront of them and then going "lol relax, it's just money"
I was playing 4v4 and two of my teammates an me where busy harassing and fending off the other team so i rarely ever had time to look at my the other guys bases. And then one of them said "dont put turrets on my side" to which i was puzzled and curious so as soon as i had spme time i took a look at their base. As it turns out, this whole time the 4th guy had been building row upon row around his and the other guys bases, everywhere. The place was full of them abd once he was done, what did he do? He built dozens of sensor towers, so many that it was hard to see on the mini map and it was freaking annoying, we lost....
We were PT vs PP, and we just crushed their army. I sieged up and started to shell the 27 cannons. He insisted on running his stalkers in...
Needless to say we lost the advantage for ages. Turns out my teammate was 3-50 1v1 bronze (probs through dc's), and the opponents were a 2200 diamond team.
Playing a 2v2, my partner is Zerg. After a lack-luster performance, we're getting pushed back. I tell him to just focus on making units and we'll do a combined push to get back into the game.
I get attacked, try to solo-defend. 2v1 doesn't end well and I'm on the run trying to set up a hidden expo and retain my tech (you all know what I'm talking about). I notice my ally doesn't have an army anywhere, so I inquire:
Me: "Where's your army?" Him: "I lost it, get over it."
Fair enough. We proceed to lose the game. I checked the replay, and he didn't make a single unit other than drones (and only a few of those, to boot) from the moment I said "just focus on making an army." What part of make an army is hard to understand?

Megaton is really a good example of why you should do it as a team. Say you spawn in the far back corner, the only one with no natural immediately next to it, now you could say that the third in the bay belongs to you, and it makes sense.
But if that player is zerg, needs to expand early, and needs to make a creep path between is main and his natural, it's just not in the interest of the team to do it like that. You should always pick expos how it's in the interest of the team. If a zerg spawns up front and needs a more 'protected' natural and there are protoss or terran players on the team, it might be best if the terran one-bases a little and cedes his natural, simply because it's in the best interest of the team, when the terran takes the natural up front he can put a pf there and defend it better.
It's just formulaic thinking, live, learn, and adapt and divide it in a way you think it's best for the team.

i was playing a 2v2 and im z my partner is t, as soon as the game starts he starts attacking the rocks to the high yield expansion and lifts off his CC this is how it went down
ME - wtf are you doing that for? PARTNER - getting yellow minerals means more income ME - you kidding me? you do that later on PARTNER - dont tell me how to play this is good for us
well this one time in a SC1+2 total conversion 4v4 i was taking it semi seriously and asked people what they were going i was going zealot, dragoon, reaver, corsair and my ally goes off on me about not taking it seriously and no one used any strategy so naturally i started arguing with him. he got on my nerves and i said "dont make me drop the hammer." and hes says "do it" now all my allies and were copper silver level and i was about 1.8k diamond (before masters) and i was significantly ahead of all of them and i run cross map kill my ally. my other 2 allys attack me i kill them to. then i preceed to 3v1 for the next 20 minutes or so ( one of them left ) so ya theres my story
Noobiest thing a team mate's ever done? went 4 gate, then panicking at early pressure, put so many cannons at his ramp that he couldn't get his non-stalker/colossus units out even if they destroyed 6 Cannons/pylons.
Me to All: I'm gonna leave now. Opponent: Why? Me to All: I dare you to scan the 4gater's ramp. *Scan drops* Opponent 2: Yeah, I'd say it went 2v1 a long time ago. Ally: I can't get out!

Minus the assimilator part, CellaWerra (at the time) has done that a bunch of times and owned.
3-person team decides to 4v4. 4th person cannon rushes on a 4player shared-base map. Rushes a Zerg, directly under the most direct overlord path one can take. He rages and flames our team in the eventual loss, easily attributable to his delay in tech, economy, and just plain stuff.
We went on to 3v3 as a premade for quite some time, winning frequently. But that game to start off reminded me of everything I dislike about random teams.

Only need one or two golds, the important thing is rushing the gas production in those games where you can get away with it... oh, and scouting the 2 base Terran who hasn't thrown out anything, chances are he's massing Thors.

Of course, the mass upgraded thors are unbeatable. This is because 4v4 usually consists of mass voids rays and mutalisks, but thor air splash kills them all.
That's why I usually rush every game if my team agrees; nothing beats 10 lots and 20 rines outside your base @ 5 min

I've beaten mass upgraded thors several times. But yeah, a lot of air power is used in 4v4s since ground suffers from the inherit disadvantage of not stacking for combat, limiting the number who can engage at any one time vs air units that can stack. Obviously Thors help negate this advantage.
It wasn’t my team but I just played a game with the noobest cats I ever saw. (best part is the ending!)
They rush as TP v P(me)Z (rhyme enough?). I didn’t scout it (my fault) and they own me but I make a new nexus at my allys natural, which they scan see. They then proceed to leave my tech buildings to mass for an attack on my ally instead of wiping me out. As my cyber core is still up I think what the hell, DT longshot and lets see what happens. With cannons I hold off until I get 3 DT’s as they spent their time attacking my teammate (killing him). I have no minerals so these 3 DT are it. What follows is an amusing game of me murdering his army as he runs to waste time for scans, which I run from. I eventually move into T base and start taking out the OC’s (instead of some static detection he decided to make a second OC), and to defend he scans and attacks with scv’s, which I one-shot. Once those and the OC are taken out I head to the Toss as they just start warping in a cannon. One cannon. I kill it and proceed to kill the forge. Right before it dies they squeeze out a cannon, which I kill. They both leave and we win with 6 supply worth of units!
What makes them so noob are: • No gas THE ENTIRE GAME even seeing the need for ob’s/ravens • The Toss made 2 gateways all game, 9 probes total, as in he made 3 probes • The T was better with workers and barracks but no gas meant only marines all game long • When I was busy killing their army and T instead of using his thousands of resources on detection (or probes for that matter) he continued making 2 zealots at a time out of the gateways, and when he made the initial cannon he had TWO THOUSAND MINERALS and only made one. If he spammed them maybe I couldn’t have killed them all in time… • While I was clearly all the way across the map they didn’t go and attack my remaining buildings to win the game
And now the best part, the noobiest of noob: why didn’t the Terran lift up his barracks and force a draw!!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!? So funny!
In a 2v2 my partner was trying to micro a couple roaches when four lings run into hit base. While trying to a-move with his drones he instead attacks his hatch and micros his roaches until the drones killed his hatch despite the zergling nearly killing all his drones before he got it down.
i play with my real life friend a lot and we always play on skype, im a zerg player hes a terran player, and when ever i get my overlords clumped up in a huge group i send them to his mineral lines basically covering up his CC, he gets pissed and we start attacking each others armies and somehow still win the game, once in a while we get rolled over though
Every time a terran wants to lift off to the island in Lava Flow and mass battlecruisers. -_-"
Even worse when they ask "How do I load SVC into my command center" before trying Like my team mate last night. Who tried for 3 minutes before leaving the game with a floating command center.
just had another epic game. 6, thats right 6 supply depots, before anything else. no scvs, nothing. and the guy called me a noob for not building a wall
I was playing with a friend of mine who decided to go strait to ultras on a small 4 player map. Needless to say he was insta rushed and killed because he didn't build any defense at all.
I'm thinking this thread might increase with the latest matchmaking change. Seem to be consistently getting placed with players in the bronze league who have around 10 games played. (As opposed to 1-3k Diamond pre-patch).

Yeah i've noticed a change in the match ups. I was placed in a team of pure bronze last night (im plat 4v4) and we were evenly matched against a team of pure diamonds (2 were masters 1v1). Bloody BNET matchmaking

You do realise, with a game like that, you need to post a replay, right?
Observe teal. 10 minutes past. 11 probes. One gateway. One forge. AND ALL THOSE CANNONS.
This was a Platinum Level game. And we were "Slightly Favored". This was the game that demoted me to Gold. Needless to say I wanted to grab a Blizzard employee in charge of coding in the matchmaking and force him/her to watch this replay for eternity.

Lol, this reminds me of a game I played ages ago. The guy attacked with cannons. Not proxy cannons, literally built a line of cannons to the enemy base. Was pretty funny really. It also let me do a slow push with tanks, without the need for turrets/bunkers.
PT vs TZ My friend went MMM while I decided to get gateway units + colossi.
We had spawned on 5 (me) and 6 (friend), while our opponents were at 8 and 9. So when we decide to push out I walked past my mate’s base on my way to our opponents. As my first colossi walk past his MMM-ball he goes on Skype “oh, I’ll just kill these colossi and then we go”…
I could only sit and watch as my friend stim-nuked my investment into oblivion in 2-3 seconds, vs a team that couldn’t even make colossi to begin with. Needless to say I was rather annoyed.
But once he stopped killing my units we ended up winning.
On other occasions he has nuked his own addons when using attack-move to rearrange his army inside our base
Watch the Yellow Zerg. Kid is my hero. Im glad I was able to secure this kid a victory.
You're making fun of yellow? You made 2 assimilators and 3 cannons before your first gateway was finished. On the ladder of noobiness, yellow is on the bottom rung, and you are MAYBE one rung ahead of him.

Played random 4s and one of my teammates built 6 stargates and expanded twice before building a single unit. I told him that next time he should build just 2 stargates and start makng units sooner incase you get attacked. He then informed me that it was Ok cause he wasnt being attacked. Well thats great cause a Teammate and I got destroyed earlier in the game while he expanded and built cannons everywhere.
Here is the kicker, because the enemy focused on me and the other buy so much he got like 20+ voids and we ended up winning the game.
On one of those new shared base maps my P ally exclaimed "Let's take the middle" and proceeded to attack destructible rocks near some random base off to the side of the map (aka, not the middle). I warn him that the enemies were massing and would probably attack soon and we should defend at the shared ramp. He ignores me while lings and stalkers stream into our base and we lose.
random 3vs3 . My team consisting of me (high plat,almost diamond zerg), bronze terran and master league terran vs 2 diamond zergs + a gold terran.
The 2 zerg 6 pool me at the same time, so I decide to sac my base and run away with all my drones.
Bronze terran teammate at first let his depots up, while my drones were crying for help on the outside. Then decided to lower one of them.. letting the last few of my drones and ALL OF THE OPPONENTS' ZERGLINGS IN.
After being almost on the brink of death by that ling "runby" he proceeds to specifically a+target all of my surviving drones, that were inside his base. I was utterely at a loss of words.
Oh ah, he decided that the correct timing fo the first orbital command was at the 11th minute mark. What a baller eh?
Needless to say, my 3 last overlords have been much more of an asset for the team, as far as spotting and the like goes, than that player's entire existence for the complete duration of the game.
The worst thing that ever happened to me was my partner nydus worm rushed. He massed lings, but then proceeded not to use the nydus worm for anything but taking the island? or maybe it was behind the rocks, I don't know. He also nydusses his army to the island/behindrocks expo and sits it there for the entire game. The opponent is giong mass muta, and everytime we are attacked he attempts to use a nydus worm to get his army there. At one point he walled in my base with nydus, while my expansions were being taken out. Needless to say it was quite frustrating.

This is a viable strategy in 4v4. Its funny looking at the army value graph after some games and seeing one line completely flat for ~10 minutes, then a huge spike as the first wave of carriers arrive.
I were playing random team 2v2 my teammate was terran and like in EVERY game you get scouted and when a SCV is building really often you attack it. But my teammate were canceling the building intstead of stopping it. He never understand to click on the SCV and not on the building

LOL always good to put ONE pylon for a houndred photon canon
last nite i was in 2v2 2 z's vs me ( p and my ally p) rt i scouted the 6 pool i said they are 6 pooling .. my al.y replies ok good ill go cannon and archons!!!!! ................................................. he made 1 cannon next to his gas line ( blocking it)..nothing at his ramp .
Ally in a 2v2 random team started out by going double extractor first then decided to make 3 ROACH WARRENS!!! And then he just sat there making nothing but spore crawlers.

I am very much use to playing 1v1. I can't stand playing with randoms; which is why I play with my a friend if I do a 2v2. I am a platinum and he's a diamond, but we're very new to 2v2. I take my laptop and am playing at his place. So we're TT and they're ZP. At this point of the game, we have complete map control. I'll done enough harass for us to both be very comfortable just teching up. And we're just expanding at this point to deny them expansions.
I take a xel'naga watchtower, to see a drone scouting around. I take my dozen or so maurader and kill the drone. While I do this, I notice a PF going up in the gold very close to the xel'naga tower.
Me - Oh shit! They're putting up an expansion on the gold. Teammate - Huh? No they're not. Me - On shit, he's teching to planetary. I am stimming. Teammate - Wait..no don't! Me - Hahah, die mofo! I killed his planetary...why won't my maurauders kill his scvs automatically? Teammate - That's because they're my scvs! You killed my planetary...they're not even playing terran!
We ended up winning the game handedly, but he gave me grief for that for a while.
i told my protoss ally that the enemy team was making dark templar and to get detection. the dark templar were in his base while his cyber core was just starting
It seems like pretty much every random partner I get paired with is looking for the littlest reason to ragequit the game. Like they'll be attacked by the enemy, I tell him I'm coming to help, and he will leave before I even get there, despite the fact that he would've been fine. And of course they never have the capacity to build themselves an army and defend themselves. You have to do everything yourself. Honestly team games are the home to the worst players in starcraft. Multiple levels below 1v1 bronze. They all need to find a new game to play, because judging from the raging in chat I see before they quit very few of them actually enjoy playing the game.
Me and my friend, Shade, were doing 4v4 random on Teamspeak and got paired up with some pretty "special" teammates. Quick recap of ours in spoiler below in case you don't want to watch the hilarious video lol.
What are some of the stupidest things your teammates have said/done in a game???
We were getting our asses kicked, and we were on a map in which teammates share starting locations. Me and Shade shared a spawn, and Red and Purple team shared a spawn. Red walled his and purple's entry path, and our opponents attacked me and Shade.
We cry for help, but they are nowhere to be found. Come to find out that red's depots were still up, so purple was having difficulty getting out lol. We start telling Red to lower the depot, but he's too busy trying to kill shit.
Shade started yelling at Purple after everything of ours was pretty much dead and Purple says that the reason why he didn't kill the depot to get out of the base was because he didn't want it to affect his score for Team Killing.
Me and Shade die laughing and leave the game shortly after.
Well I had a fail moment last night. I have my initial build timings down to a t (scv finishing when barracks finishes, then OC, 2nd barracks finishing when marine finishes in first barracks so production lines up etc etc), but last night it was all going wrong. I just didnt have enough mins for some reason. I just couldnt figure out why. I then clocked that my scvs were following another scv. Fucking missclick at the start meant i was rallying on a scv, not the patch. We then got quadrupled 4gated, and as you can imagine I was a great help to my team with my epic marine count (like 5 marines lol)
Once, I said "Yeah, we should attack." to all to fake out the opponents, then told my partner that I was faking them out, and then he moved all of his marines to the opponents' base and they all died.
A guy I played with a while ago decided that he should open up with 3 pylons and a gateway at 19. He then got completely owned and called me a noob for going pylon, gate, pylon, gas, cyber core.
I gave a guy 1600 minerals so he could build a CC and another barracks. He then queued up marines and marauders at 3 rax until he ran out of minerals, then he did it again when I gave him more money. I proceeded to run out of money
I told my partner once to transition into mass banshees and a few hellions to kill zealots. He then went mass hellion with 3 banshees.
I was doing team monobattles 4v4, went warp prism (lol) and tried to give people money, but they refused. We lost with me having 4000 minerals and 3000 gas because they would not take money from me.
On another Team Monobattle 4v4, every single partner I had decided to go ground to ground after I told them pre-game to mostly go anti air. I had hydralisks as our entire anti air, then they went double mass bc/drops/mass void rays.
I played a 4v4 where everyone was playing standard. We all scouted about 12 collosi from an enemy protoss. 2 of my team mates then pushed out with about 250 marines. Then they went through a choke point, so they were in a single file line. The results weren't pretty.
A guy on my 3v3 team tells me to reaper rush along with him, so I reaper rush really fast. He asks how on earth I got a reaper that fast (4:15). I look at his base and he has just started mining gas.
This was 4v4. I scout Forge first in an opponent's base and warn my teammates about the impending cannon rush. They say thanks. Just then I notice a cannon warping in on my ramp so I send probes to attack it. Not long after my teammates claims he is being probe rushed. The next few minutes are epic as I fight like crazy to defend the cannons going up, while my teammate is trying like crazy to fend off the probes. Finally a 3rd teammates asks "Please tell me you guys are not attacking each other?!?"
Fail.
So I had mistaken my teammate's cannons for a cannon rush and we had been battling each other over our shared ramp. I apolgized profusely, but two teammates immediatly rage quit. We did still win though, so I appologized again via PM and he said it was okay since we got the win.
In a 2v2, my ally threw down a Forge so I assumed he was going to cannon rush. I used the opportunity to tech hard, as I was assuming he would buy me time. However, when I looked later on at his base, he had completely walled off his ramp with Pylons (no Cannons) and had THREE Zealots BEHIND the pylons.
3v3 on Ulaan Deeps, I'm playing with a friend and some random guy. Random guy spawns in top left as Terran. He says "rushing nukes, back me up." We thought he might be kidding but nope, dude was actually rushing nukes. Of course he gets triple rushed and has absolutely nothing to defend himself, and then he blames us for not being able to save him. Saying we're bad teammates, etc... I'm thinking like "what do you expect us to do? suicide our units into theirs? because we don't have enough to save you, so our units will just die if we try." After that, he floated his remaining stuff to my base just to take up space and then he started telling the opponents what we were doing. We ended up losing, of course, because it was basically a 2v3.
I swear, I really don't understand some people. If you're going to use a risky (and quite frankly, stupid) strategy like that, you only have yourself to blame when it doesn't work. I've had quite a few team games where I get random allies who do the stupidest shit, and it makes me laugh that they think I'm a bad teammate for not trying to save them... The fact is, there are times where it's better for the team overall to just let a player die if there's no way to save them. Some people just don't seem to realize that.
Here's another one. 3v3 on Monsoon. Now, if you've played this map a lot, you know it's absolutely Zerg heaven early game because each base having at least two entrances = gg if your opponent can get early lings in. I was doing random teams and I got on a PPP team, and we were against a PZZ team. We're already pretty boned because they have two Z's, but hey, it's not impossible, right? That is, unless one of your allies decides to cannon rush instead of walling off... One of my P allies did just that, and as expected, lings got in through his base and murdered our other ally. It's even worse because the cannon rusher was in the middle, so the lings could easily get to everyone's bases from his. I actually had both of my chokes walled (I was on the right), but it didn't matter because it was basically a 1v3 at that point and I couldn't even expand.
Near the end of the game, I raged at him a bit and he was like "I cannoned the toss," and I was like "and in the process, you left all of our bases open to lings. gj."
I've a lot of other games where I just get these inexplicably bad teammates, but not too many where they did one specific bad thing. I'll post more if I remember them.
Just thought of another one. Pretty old, but still. 2v2 on Tarsonis Assault, I'm on a TT team against a ZZ team. My ally goes two rax but doesn't wall at all. Pretty sure you can guess what happens from there.
Once my Terran Teammate left because I built a supply depot to seal our mutual wall and it got in the way of his barracks building an addon. So instead of LIFTING IT OFF, he left the game.
A friend of mine is toss who opened up with gas gas pylon gate gate (no push and he barely built lots) core NO WARPGATE stargate stargate mass voids. luckily he changed it so something slightly less shit.
Had an enemy (he was an unranked, allied with a diamond) that went and built 3 pylons to block off his ramp. Then he built a forge and 2 cannons, and massed probes the whole game. I got hallucination ASAP, made a proxy pylon, hallu'd colossi, went in with 15 stalkers on his ramp, and killed him. His teammate couldn't help him because of the pylon wall.
I joined a random 3v3. I play toss and had two terran teammates. I build up some units and say "lets attack someone" to which they both reply "ok lets go" so i move out, destroy a zerg expansion, go into the main, destroy a pool or something, eventually lose my army, and start warping in some units at my base to defend a counter attack. The other two zerg teammates had a ton of mutas at this time, they all wiped out my base, and now I'm pissed because my terran teammates havent helped with anything and now i have nothing left. I look to see what they're doing. Their answer to mass mutas?.......... Mass seige tanks.... Thanks for the help guys.

Sometimes when I'm bored and playing 2v2 with a friend in a lower league, I'll play off-race as Terran, go 6rax with no gas, have my friend dump me 125 gas (for just one tech lab and combat shields), and we'll just roll our opponents as TXvXX. With good micro, masses of marines are ridiculously strong against most builds. We just overrun them with numbers. Works pretty well in diamond and master league too.
He made like 1 billion supply depots and command centers. Watched the replay from his POV it looks like he loved zooming in and out of his command centers. I see. He must be enjoying the graphics from his new PC.
Just had one. 3v3 on Cinder Fortress, I go 16 nexus at one of the middle high ground expos. You might be saying "wtf 16 nexus in a 3v3," but it's actually really effective if you macro well. Anyways, one of my teammates started giving me a ton of crap for it. The 16 nexus ended up working and I pretty much carried the team through my macro. Fast forward to the end, we lose and the player who was giving me crap says "we were too far behind" before leaving.
Wheel on over to the score screen, and the dude was in dead last because he never expanded and only made 23 workers the entire game (22 minutes long).
Gotta love it when someone who's so obviously inferior to you tries to tell you how to play the game.
There has been sooooooooo much noob things my teammates have done.
The latest one is one of my teammates in 3v3 takes my natural expo and then takes his own as well. I was like "wtf? you better do something then" At the end, I was so starved and couldn't produce anything off one base and when that guy leaves, I suddenly get 7k minerals and 3k gas.
One of my best friends consistently forgets to expo and around 14 minutes he'll coyly mention over skype, So can I have 400 minerals? I just ran out of minerals in the base and I need to expand.
Noobiest thing a teammate has done with me was one time during the beta. He split his workers like one after another each seperately. Now this is viable if you hold F1 and click on each patch but HE did it SO SLOW. I was like OMG, mine with your workers. He was also making 1 barracks and some marines, built nothing more during the whole game. I was protoss at that time and only knew how to play gimmicky and went for mass void rays, well we won that game because of me.
Next game, I see the loading screen, I check who my ally is and omgwtfbbq won't you believe this? IT'S THE SAME DAMN GUY FROM THE LAST GAME. But I wasn't sure, though he confirmed it for me pretty convincingly after I saw him split his workers.... GG, we lost that second game.
I played a 3v3 (somewhere around Gold level) where one of my teammate kept dropping his mules on his Command Center. And of course, he didn't bother to move them at all so they all died a slow and painfull death.

The thread is the noobiest thing your teammate has done, not yourself...seriously sir you might need to turn team colors on if you wanna get out of bronze :S
A few times I've had to ask a Protoss "dude, where's your units?" "going carriers bro"
They never get carriers out before they lose. Always on one base, never Terran or Zerg going BCs/BLs respectively, always Protoss.
Probably the worst for me was in a 3v3 or 4v4 I see an ally getting rushed, send my units and barely hold off the attack and save my ally. After this my ally complains that I have no army and I'm a noob. I try to explain he would be dead if I didn't lose my army to save his base, but he never seems to get it.
saw a 2v2 where the opposing force (a tt team) made nothing but planetary fortresses. It was very... wtf. Siege mode kind of... countered the whole strat, as would a single void ray or mutas if i was P/Z...
So I play a lot of the co-op games against AIs. When the game starts I usually just get my split set up and get a few things made and then look into my teammates base just to see what they are up to and to gauge whether or not I need to defend both of us or if they have a clue as to what they are doing. I did this the other day and when I looked they had a normal set up, looked like they were doing things correctly. I started to build up as normal and then when the AI push came they started to crush me. I asked for help and go no response. Looked back at their base and they were basically where I saw them like 6 minutes ago except they had 1 void ray. After I was about done being killed I said "thanks for the help" and quit. They messaged me a few minutes later in chat and said "You shouldn't have left. I totally won that game with my void rays". I looked at the record and he didn't. He lost like a minute afterwards.

Lol, there's a youtube video casted by Husky where CellaWeRRa plays protoss (his zerg) and asks his 2v2 protoss teammate what to go. He makes like 13 gates before gas/core and still wins.
Anyways, I've had many,many noobs but the only thing I remember was when I carrier rushed in 4v4s. First carrier came out at around 8-9 minutes. If they didn't attack before 15 minutes, it was pretty much win for us.
This guy got cannon rushed in front of his nose! It was hard not to see the probes that built this cannons in his base... This video says all... More fail videos coming soon
Played a 3v3 and my ally got 6 pooled and spine crawler rushed and 2 raxed, lol!
I was at the bottom and he was at the top, T ally in the middle, T has a army which could have killed everything at that point with the help of the other guys drones and lings, but no, he sits in his base the whole time and i have to run all the way across the map to stop thier attack while the T player just types "lol, make some lings"......
Just remembered another one, playing with a bronze friend who usually plays T but for some reason wants to try Z, he's heard me say something about a 6 pool before..... you can guess where this is going. He got 10 drones, an overlord and then build a spawning pool.... and then another spawning pool.... and says "i thought the pool makes zerglings, why would you want 6 pools, it doesn't do anything". Luckly he only made the two spawning pools, not all 6.
On a side note, i've done things like this before as well forgetting my pool, building 2 baneling nests, building an evo chamber instead of a pool :s
In a random 3v3 game, had a teammate make nothing but depots for the first few minutes just to wall in the ramp. It kept getting attacked by Rines and Lings and he would constantly scream for help. Then, every time we asked him to lower, he wouldn't listen forcing me to destroy the depots just to get out of our base.
Another time I had a teammate try to pull a MKP, loading his scv's into his CC and lifted it to the nearest gold base. He thought he was safe since you needed to take down destructible rocks before being able to enter the area but the opponents lifted a few barracks over, pumped a few Marines and killed him.
hard to say between a Terran "going air" and showing up 17 minutes later against maxed tier one armies with 4 bcs or a Zerg player is ripping me a new one while im asking him to stop typefragging and stfu over how i didnt 7pool with him(he said because i never responded to his inquiry, he assumed i meant i would), while an enemy spine crawler hatches onto his main right beside a mineral patch
dying to cannon rush in a team game is dumb. you should instantly be demoted to bronze 0 points.
if you slack on scouting, you should easily be able to delay the cannons long enough to get defensive cannon/bunker, then your team mates have plenty of time to assist or counter.
but even worse. if your teammate gets killed by cannons and you don't at least attempt an immiediate counter attack then you're terrible and should have your account banned for 30 days.
so frustrating in random 3v3 or 4v4 seeing ally fail and die to cannon rush, then you try to counter while your other ally just sits in his base thinking "its okay if i hide in my base for 20 mins we might win!".
random team games is where all the fun happens. i've seen it all. even the "LOL noob why havent you expanded" (one of my allies said to his neighbouring ally, while i was on other side of map), the poor guy had expanded twice and they had both been destroyed because the pilock neighbour was defending at his ramp and letting poor guy get ganged.
The following isn't a "nooby" ally story as much as it is just a terrible ally story.
So, I just got done playing a 3v3, and I had the worst ally I've ever had in a team game (and that's saying something because I've played probably over a thousand of them).
Alright, so it was a 3v3 on Monsoon. I'm on a PZT team, and we're up against a PTT team. I go for a relatively early expand and get rushed and can't hold it off with my own forces, but my allies could easily hold it off if they helped. Problem is, Zerg player would rather do some minor econ damage with speedlings, so I end up losing my entire main all because my Zerg ally would rather counter and do minor damage than actually help.
Eventually he finally sends some lings over (after my entire main is gone, and he realizes he can't autowin by spamming speedlings). During this entire time, my expo was mining pretty well, so I had a lot of resources stockpiled because I was planning on rebuilding in my main. Because I had about 1500 minerals, I decided to take the gold because when you have an ally who gets set that far back, you usually have to take risks in order to get back in the game.
When I do this, he tells me to "stop expanding and start sending him money," and I'm like "lol, no, why should I send money to an ally who'd rather counter than help." After I said that, he decided to teamkill every single unit and structure I had. I seriously couldn't believe it. Like, really dude? You hang me out to dry by not helping when you were perfectly capable of doing so, and then you teamkill me when I refuse to send money to your stupid ass? My other ally wasn't much better, because he was agreeing with Failzerg in chat and not trying to stop him at all. Normally after something like that, I'd just leave the game, but this time, I was just angry as hell, so I decided to stay until the end and constantly feed the other team tips about what my team was doing. Possibly juvenile, I know, but really, if you're actually going to teamkill your ally, you don't deserve to win. My team ended up losing, and it's probably the happiest loss I've ever had.
I'm guessing this Zerg player was one of those terrible players who doesn't understand the macro side of the game and only knows how to rush. I ended up reporting him for teamkilling. Not sure how much good it'll do, but people like him don't deserve to play online.
in a 4v4 on sand canyon. my green ally lifts to the gold and attacks one of the enemy players with his scvs. then starts giving us orders on what we should do. shockingly we still won due to how bad then enemy team was -.-(one of the zergs on the enemy team rushed for hydras for no reason, none of us even had air xD)

It may be because he decided that you were too far behind in tech after losing your main base which probably was where all of your tech was, so he wanted you to feed him so he could get his (possibly higher tech) army up. You weren't very clear on what your allied had etc. I could be completely wrong.
I played a random 2v2 where my partner tried to carrier rush because he "hoped Day9 would do another carrier rush daily" except all he had for defenses was one cannon and got taken out by a marine/marauder early push
You'd be very surprised how bad bronze league 4v4 is. The allies you get are so bad that I've given up trying to get out of bronze.
One that comes to mind is my teammate on a shared base map leaves his supply depots wide open and a whole throng of zerglings rushes in and decimates his workers. he promptly blamed me for not saving his ass. I lifted off and started massing an army at the gold and left him to rot. He was pretty pissed.

lol i love doing that.. except i rush to 3-3 upgrades and take all the bases (island bases first, gold bases second) being so mineral heavy get 20 OCs and then sacc all my workers in push after push and replenish to have a 200/200 army of marines/medivacs... constant terrible terrible damage lol once i get the macro working (lol 5aaaaaaaaa)
i like taking all 3 of my opponents on too...kinda riles me when my teammates want to steal the glory.
i was playing some 3v3s. we just started and i see an early scout by one of the protoss enemies. i see it run into my ally's base and don't see it go anywhere after. i tell my ally to watch for a cannon rush (i was cannon rushing one of my opponents at the same time). tell him to scout inside his base to make sure and he just sits there.. i move a probe over to his base and check it out and sure enough, there are 2 cannons warping in (slow by me to get over there, yeah...) he starts sending 6 probes at the cannons to try to kill them. the cannons warp in and the 6 probes die. he sends half of the remaining probes. those die. then he sends the rest of them. they all die...
fortunately, my cannon rush succeeded and we eventually won. but we got on even playing fields by losing an ally and killing an opponent.

It's not that hard to get back up in tech when you have a Nexus and 20ish probes (which I did). And like I said before, if he had actually been a good teammate and helped when I was being attacked, I wouldn't have been behind in the first place.
Really though, none of that matters. Regardless of how far behind I was, killing all my stuff is just mind-blowingly stupid. It's like "he won't send me his minerals now, but maybe he'll do it after I piss him off even more!"
In a 2v2 once my teammate never made warp gate tech for like a 20 or so minute game. I told him to 4gate with me and he proceeded to make 4 gates and pump zealots out of them. I told him to give me control of his units and we barely managed to win with gateway units vs infestor ultra and voidrays.
I rarely random 2v2 and thats part of the reason why. Also I'm platinum 2v2 so I do it when I feel like owning some people up as long as my teammates half decent. I'm masters for 1v1.

I played a 2v2, and the terran opponent had the WORST ALLY EVER. Here was the noob's build: 10: Pylon 10: Another Pylon 11: Pylon 14: Pylon Gateway Forge Gateway Leave gateways idle for one minute. No cannons No ups No gas Mass zealots Double gas Charge Attack my PF with only zealots Attack it several more times. Lose because he didn't expand 20 minutes into the game and because he had only zealots.
The PF I mentioned was at his expansion . We saw we were facing the worst protoss ever when we saw 14 probes, 4 pylons and nothing else.
Me having a bad day: M: "OK, I'll scout with the speedlings, maybe I'll do some damage. Hmmm, he caught me with a Force Field and I've just lost 16 speedlings for nothing. OK, never mind, I'll go for Roaches."
M: "Jesus, that guy is just massing lings. He must stop any time now, he knows it's not a problem to make Banelings and easily kill his entire army. Damn, why is he still massing the Lings? OK, he has just surrounded my Lings and I've lost all of them. I mean come on, how could he know I still don't have Banelings?"
M: "OK, so you'll go from the front and I'll flank them from the behind and we'll completely crush them! Ready?" A: "Yeah, gogogo!" M 30 seconds later: "You know, it's probably a bad idea to attack 6 Collossi with Ling Roach." A: "Yeah."
M in the 7th game where I played Zerg (Diamond league): "OK, they've got a lot of tanks, so I should go for that Guardian like things, Brood Lords, right?" A: "Yeah, better have them as fast as possible." M: "OK, so I've got Greater Spire ready, but Mutas still can't be made into Brood Lords, why?"
My ally having a bad day:
M: "Dude, we need to go ahead with the Baneling bust or it'll be too late." A: "Yeah, go ahead and splash them there, you know." M: "You mean in the Pylon?" A: "What? Sure." M: "OK" --- the bust goes ahead and fails terribly--- A: "OMFG, you should've attacked the Depot! I told you so..."
Advancing with Speedlings + Sentry + Stalkers A: "Send one Ling ahead to scout" M: "OK." A: "Yeah, we can take that, let's go." M: "Dude, we should pull back, there are reinforcements." A: "Yeah, let's go back and expand." A (all of a sudden after I've switched to my main and focused on macro): "GOGOGOGO NOW, MOVE IN!!!!" M: "wtf?" A in an angry voice: "You're such a moron dude, if we moved in when I said we would have slaughtered them... now we will lose."
The whole moment could have taken 1 second, if not shorter.
A: "I forgot to make a Pylon." A: "I forgot to make a Gateway." A: "Why have I made another Pylon instead of Core?" A: "Hmmm, why do I have 1 Sentry instead of 3?" A: "I shouldn't have 800 minerals."
The sad part is we still won that one.
So as you can see, you don't have to be Bronze or play with random allies to "suffer from" hilarious moments.
4v4 I'm sharing bases with a toss and I'm Terran. So I make some tanks but I can't move them out of the base because he made the choke to small for them. So I kill his pylon and move out, but he rebuilds it and calls me a noob and insists that it's enough space for my tanks even though my reinforcing tanks are walking into a wall. I kill his pylon again and now he starts killing all my shit with his army and I kill his shit so now we're 2v4.
Played a 4v4 on that sandy map that isn't Sand Canyon (lol). I'm Protoss, my allies are 1 terran and two protoss. Now, I can tell from the beginning this isn't a good team (the terran making very few workers, the other guys following ridiculous timings for all their stuff). I realize that the opponents are doing the infamous 6 minute push (you know, the one that that one guy suggests in all the games you lose) so I 4 gate to defend it. I lose my nexus and almost everything else, but magically I retained 3 zealots and 5 stalkers. I figure we're ahead; I check everyone's bases: the terran has next to nothing, and both tosses are getting stargates, one of them building a fleet beacon. I decide that rebuilding isn't worth it, and attack, killing one zerg, and all of a protoss enemy's probes. I figure that that was the best I could do. Now both tosses have fleet beacons, and one of them has TWO. Then the double beacon guy on my team starts saying in the "all" chat. "Wow. Darclite." "Worst player I've seen on here in ages" "You have nothing" "You're pathetic" "Now we have to play 3v4" "fucking disgrace" "lol" "You suck" "Wow" I respond with "Funny to hear from the guy with 2 fleet beacons" and leave the game. I'm losing the desire to play 4v4 lol.
You know, I'm pretty patient. If I get teamed up with someone who is obviously new, I try to help them, and rarely get angry. But if you totally suck, don't say anything to the people who carry you. I'd rather have a total dick of an opponent beat me and bm me than have a teammate who I could beat in 50 out of 50 games blame me for a loss.
And I'm also surprised to see people in here talk about times they attacked their allies for no reason. Are you trying to tell everyone that you're a horrible person? Because you are. Teamkilling should be a bannable offense on battle.net.

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.
ill post a replay when i get home
What? haha. And nice quick reply by MangoTango. Where is that replay???
3v3 on Monsoon, I'm a P on a PZZ team vs a TZZ team. My allies will hereby be referred to as Orange and Purple (their colors).
1. I told my allies to go early lings because early lings can autowin on Monsoon due to the backdoor ramps. They can get in and mess up mineral lines. Anyway, neither of my allies listen to me. One FE's, and the other goes for a late pool and masses speedlings. By the time he attacks with them, the "autowin" timing window is gone and his lings get owned. 2. They both had terrible economies. Orange had 32 drones for the majority of the game, and Purple peaked at 44. They were both on two base. It gets even worse because even though neither of them had nearly enough drones, they were both still floating a lot of excess resources. 3. Their army compositions were really bizarre and just bad. Orange only made lings for like the first 15 minutes of the game, and Purple went for infestor-ling. Orange finally decided to add on some mutas near the end, but 10 or 15 mutas don't do much in the late game. 4. Their unit control was awful, and so was their decision making. During the game, the other team managed to occupy the middle because my team just didn't have enough to stop them. After the other team occupied the middle, my teammates decided to randomly send small-ish groups of lings into the opponent's big army ball. My allies would send like 20 or 30 lings at a time with no other support, and naturally, the lings would get killed without doing any damage at all because 3 big armies > a small pack of lings. My allies did this a lot, and because of it, they were never able to mass a decently sized army. As far as bad control goes, well... Purple's infestor control was the worst I've ever seen. He lost his first 6 infestors in the dumbest way possible. He had them burrow-moved right in front of the enemy's ball (like, within marine and roach range. That's how close they were). Then, for no apparent reason, he decides to launch off like 10 infested terrans into the enemy's giant army ball. Understandably, the infested terrans do nothing at all, and the opponents, being reasonably intelligent, scan where the terrans shot out from and snipe all the infestors. Nice job, Purple. You just lost 6 infestors for absolutely no gain whatsoever. His control with subsequent infestors wasn't much better, and he hardly ever used fungal. He just used small amounts of infested terrans and never did any damage with them whatsoever.
It's probably pretty obvious by now, but we lost, hard. I had the strongest army (chargelots, blink stalkers, and lots of HTs with storm. good upgrades too) and maxed out faster than anyone else in the game, but it didn't matter because my allies were just helpless. I checked their ranks after the game, and they were both high plat. I just don't understand... How can high plat players be so incompetent in every single facet of the game?
just had a 3v3 where one guy left immediately because the other team said in all chat that they were rushing, and the other ally was AFK for the first five minutes... why does this stuff happen to me :<
Team monobattles 4v4- my allies shout "DT!" "Zergling!" "Roach!" The enemies proceed to mass battlecruisers and void rays. Edit: We won that game lololol
Me: "Strat?" Him "rush" *10 pool* He attacks the pylon, the switches to depot, rax, depot, finally pylon. He does almost no damage Me: "Macro" Him: *gets 15 drones the whole game and almost no units* -_-
Lifting to the gold/island is pretty bad since on the maps where it is doable you lock yourself in a position where you are unable to help your allies. I love it even more if people lifts to gold and open with a plantery fortress: as I can send units behind their mineral lines to deny mining.
Recently I have encountered some interesting builds such as: - Great wall of china: giant wall of cannons in the middle of the map, only to have enemies bypass the wall and destroy us in 4v3. - Double gas before gate into DTs - Proxy 2 rax ghost marine rush (only to be scouted by my hallu phoenix - I guess I got lucky) - 1 base 3 stargates 1 voidray no gateway units @ 6 min mark. - Mass banelings no speed
Almost all of those were pulled off by people in high diamond random ladder. Random 4v4 is random indeed.
Zerg Teammate goes macro hatch before anything else, then proceeds to double gas and puts 4 in each geyser. I then tell him, in a good way, that he has 4 in each gas, and that 3 is the number it is designed to work optimally. He then goes "u sure? u pro?", then I go "No, I'm no pro, but I'm 100% sure you need only 3". Silence for a while, then he goes and puts 1 more in each gas, for a grand total of 5.
Needless to say, we got raped as he said "lets attack, were good" with him having 20 lings and 10 mutas like 20 min into the game.
I was in a 4v4 game on extinction. 2 (not one) of my teammates lift off their CCs and float to the islands. Then they proceed to turtle with missile turrets and PF. It's worth noting that one of the islands was in the back corner behind the enemy base. The other team must have been really confused when a CC was flying overhead but I can't imagine it took them long to figure out what happened. Once he built his 20 turrets, one of the players who floated to the island had the nerve to ask me to give control so he could spread creep. I of course told him to go to hell and I went on to play and lose the 2v4
our opponents send out two drones for scouting, both of them build extractors and steal my ally's gas. he starts yelling at me for letting them steal his gas (rem this is like 1-2 mins into the game)....showers expletives like christmas snow and leaves the game.
I still win given I steam roll bronze league (haha i am silver myself). but it was funny.. he was like ohh shit they stole my gas they stole my gas..ohh shit
A Terran teammate immediately lifts off his CC and moves to the corner island and pumps out one scv, really really fucking slowly building up from there. Left his beginner SCVs idle the entire fucking game.
In a 3v3, opens e-bay into PF with double gas while building a "rush-proof" depot wall around his mineral line. Then 20 minutes later, he moves to the island and goes mass-viking off 3 reactor starports.

I have a 2v2 ally that does that while I go mass nukes and stim marines. We're 4-0 doing that. Wait, you mean he only gets lings or he waits until he has attack speed to get them? Anyway: Same guy I mentioned before was terran once. He gets between 3 and 10 of the following units: Marines: about 8 Reapers: about 3 Banshees: about 6 Battlecruisers: about 7 Nothing else but workers. 28 minutes in he has barely been harassed and has 100 food.

How did he lift his PF?
He made another CC, lifted it to Island, landed it there, then turned it into a PF.

One that comes to mind is my teammate on a shared base map leaves his supply depots wide open and a whole throng of zerglings rushes in and decimates his workers. he promptly blamed me for not saving his ass. I lifted off and started massing an army at the gold and left him to rot. He was pretty pissed.
Oh no, lol. If you are halfway decent, you will crush through bronze league 4 v 4. I am diamond 4 v 4, and lost all my 3 v 3 matches on purpose so I could see how it was.......and it was pretty sad how easily I could dominate. I would go 2/3 base colossus/gateway, and single-handedly rofl-cruise through all three opponents game after game. I was back in plat in about 20 games. I was something like 23-2, and the only games I lost were games where I would get 6 pooled by 3 zergs on single base maps.

Actually, most teams will have a large attack happening at the 6 or so minute mark.

Yeah but in bronze those attacks consist of like 15 zerglings and maybe 6 marines or a few stalkers and a zealot
not really too hard to hold off with a bunker/FF/spines

Actually, in bronze I generally see: -A 4 gate -MM -Roaches -Zealots -DTs -More MM -Super Fast Tanks (not very common) -Mass speedling.
Played with a friend the other day he just got the game. He lost to mutas the game before so he opened up with an Ebay and circled his base with turrets before doing anything else. Needless to say we lost the game due to being rushed and he blamed me :D.

You could say I was almost as stupid for not noticing what he was doing and stopping him but the other guy and I just though he was being a nice and was trying to make a cannon defensive line.
You could try reporting him and other teamkillers to blizzard. I heard they punish people who blatantly attack their own team.
Maybe one report won't get him punished, but if he does it in many games and lies about "cannons bugging out" then maybe he will get punished.
No, they don't punish these people, or I would've heard something by now.
No word of a lie. I saw a Diamond level (1v1 - 4v4) Zerg a-move lings off one-base into a tank/bunker turtle Terran until he mined out. He then left. No speed-lings either.
had a string of really passive allies lately. I've been trying to end games quickly, so I usually ask if we're rushing, and they usually say yes. I'll do this pretty good 4 gate opening that I've been fiddling with lately and end up with an army twice as big as anyone else's (if the army value graph is to be believed). usually one of my allies will fail it up and not send anything, but me and the other ally still NEARLY break the opponent through our forces alone. I say nearly because for some reason, my allies don't send any reinforcing units whatsoever and just go straight back to droning/building up. I've lost three games tonight where it would've been an easy gg if my allies just sent some sort of reinforcing units, but we ended up losing because my allies got all turtley and then outmacroed.

Same thing is in masters , but mutas to , more fast expands etc
At the end of a rather long game: FFA, 4 players+a computer, but purple killed the computer pretty handily. Red (me): 47 average APM, 60 current (yes, I'm a noob) Blue: 1 average APM, 0 current (wth? Highest APM the whole game was 13) Teal: 34 average APM, 0 current Purple: 35 average APM, 45 current. Blue... His maximum food was 16. He opened: Pylon Forge (really late) One cannon (in base) Pylon outside base Gateway outside base. + Show Spoiler +
He was alive until ~42 minutes lololol
Edit: I know this isnt team games, but I created a party to test my FFA map and I'm gonna count that.
3v3 on cinder fortress, ppp vs tzz. He doesn't even scout the races of the opposing players before deciding where to put his cannons, and he ends up trying to cannon rush one of the Zerg players. He put his forge and inbase pylon near his nexus instead of the big team ramp, so we can't wall it off. Lings start pouring into our bases and we (by we, I mean me and the remaining P) are able to hold them off for a while, but when they get speed, there's just not much we can do. During this entire time, cannon rusher is still trying in vain to cannon the Z, and hasn't built a single cannon or gateway in his main. Speedlings end up running into his mineral line and ruining it, and he leaves the game.
So, let's count the ways in which he fails:
1. Not scouting at all before trying to cannon rush. 2. Trying to cannon rush a Zerg. 3. Not helping wall off the big team ramp. 4. Not building a gateway or any defensive cannons in his base even though he was sitting on 400 minerals.
I checked his profile after the game and he's a high ranked plat 3v3 player and at least plat in everything else. I just don't understand how this happens... I've seen bronzies pull off much better cannon rushes. The worst part is, the other Protoss and I still almost won just through mass gateway units. If mr. fail cannon rush had played normally, it probably would've been an easy win.
Zergs on EU, Y U NO NEVER USE BANELINGS? + Y U ALLWAYS CHEESE? + Massroaches in teamgames are not good. Y U MAKE ROACHES AND NO BANESLINGS? And people in this topic, why u allways blame other people? Have a good night!
Random 2v2 earlier, and my ally went pylon at ramp, pylon next to nexus, pylon next to edge, gateway at ramp, forge at ramp, 4 cannons (!) at mineral line.... all with 12 probes =_= Thankfully one of the opponents went 3 supply then barracks so my 4gate rolled him them over long before my ally could die.
Had a fairly crappy experience today doing 4v4. We're tpzz and our opponents are zztt. One of our z's immediately quits as soon as the game starts. (This happens quite a bit in team matches, at least every 4th or 5th game or so someone just bails for whatever reason: lag? the dog wants a walk? power outage? wuwt?).
So I ask our other z whose base is next to the dropped z to take over the dropped z's base and try to at least build drones, macro some, and build basic defense (a couple of spine crawlers). I figured we would lose the base eventually but we might as well keep it productive as long as possible.
Okay, so our active z makes lings with the dropped z's base and proceeds to knock out two of our opponents with a ling rush. I tell him "Good job!"
The three of us then start taking down the last two opponents. Then things get weird. We push up into their double base (this is on the Outpost map), and one of their players (a Z) quits. So their team is down to one guy (a Z). He pushes us back.
He complains on the All channel about his remaining ally who quit and tells us the usual: The ally complained bitterly that no one on his team ran to his rescue. Okay. So now our last opponent is running two Z bases. He builds ten or so spine crawlers and a bunch of hydras. So we are gearing up to blow into his base.
Then my Z ally attacks me! Starts killing two of my expos with about 15 roaches. It takes me five minutes to start to clean up the mess, start to organize the remains of my forces, medivac a drop of marines into his mineral line and proceed to kill him. I was like, "wtf?" Because we're allies and you can't change sides (I tried) I had to focus kill each of his units and buildings while trying to get my forces organized again. Not fun.
My P ally while all this mayhem is going on does nothing to help me with our wacked out ally but amass sentries (!) to go toe to toe with our opponent's spine crawler and hydra line. A total fail. I mean a colossal, total and utter fail. He didn't build many units after that. There were plenty of unmined bases on the map.
Once I start killing our traitor's base and start to get things back under control, I ask my P ally what he's been doing. From the minimap his forces have been static for 20 minutes. I see no expos, no new extensions of his forces, nothing. He says he's been attacking the enemy, and then he starts pinging the map like a mad man, over and over and over and over, spamming ping!, to the places where he thinks a remaining opponent's lone command center is. I tell him "Okay, okay. Stop pinging."
Then I have to kill our other Z ally's base because the traitorous Z has now started working it. He also runs his last two remaining drones around trying to start hatcheries, which I hunt and kill. He pleads for me to stop. I'm like, you can't be serious. After the stunt you pulled? No effing way. You're dead bee-otch.
The traitorous Z bm's me to the end of the game, a 48 minute game. I only stayed in b/c I didn't want to lose ladder points and I was p!ssed at this clown. I asked him why he attacked and he just typed in all caps "NOO." Idk what was going on. All of his messages were all caps. On his profile his has 1875 achievement points, no games in 1v1, ranked 6th in bronze 2v2 with 41 wins, ranked 31 in 3v3 with 32 wins, and ranked 11 in 4v4 with 99 wins. His total is 565 league wins. This player is not brand new to the game. He's been around. I hate to think how much abuse this player has been dishing out to other allies in those games. Blizzard really needs to punish players like this b/c they decrease the value of the game.
I had a friend tell me of an ally who attacked him in an SC2 team game. He was upset too. I think turning on an ally is one of the lowest things someone can do when you play random teams on SC2.
This is a great thread. Glad there is somewhere to vent about SC2 player's acting badly. Someone on here said that Blizzard takes sabotaging teams seriously and can use complaints about players to take action against their accounts, but when I look at the "report player" options there is only "Spam, Harassment, Real-life Thread, Inappropriate Name, and Cheating." Being a douche and attacking one of your teammates is not on the pull down list.
If you block communication with a player on battle.net in SC2, will that also make it so that you will never have to play with that person again? I sure hope so.
Is the main reason for someone to attack an ally just sheer whim or what? What can the motives be? They can't care much about the game, right? I feel like I got grouped with a bunch of angry tweens or that the traitor was playing drunk.
I can supply the replay if anyone is interested (thanks for reading all this! lol.).
Top diamond 3v3 (and the others too...) and I apparently got paired with a bronze league player who built 2 gas before supply depot, then got a rax around 20 supply. When the inevitable ~6 minute rush came, he had nothing at all except for 1 barracks with no add-ons. The matchmaking system is definitely wonky for team games.
Got with a zerg teammate, we were playing against 2 terrans. so we agreed that i go 3gate robo and he goes banelings... after 7 minutes into the game a mass marine push came, and he didnt have a SINGLE zerlging/baneling...just 5 spine crawlers at his base....
During a 2v2, i was with a ally toss, this was a PPvTT. My ally tell me that he was going air & i decided to go ground heavy (zealot, immo, HT). First part of the game was okay, my ally have some phenix then he started to switch to voidray/carrier, obviously one of the other terran decided to go mass viking/banshee. Think about me Roflstomping the ground (bioball) & seeing my dumb ally keep with the production of carrier that was one shotted by tons shit of viking & me suffering heavy loses from cloaked banshee (thx obs sniping). I was litteraly screaming on the chat : GO Freakin Phenix, U moron. His answer was : "Are u dumb ? Why would I do something like that, stfu noob" Finally I simply went in "Macro mode : I'm gonna kill all your building despite your banshit killing my units". We won thanks to that but I kept insulting my ally until the end.
I was playing with a friend on our gold team. I 15 hatch, but have no units and I watch him hold off a push against an army twice as big as his, barely losing anything. He DIDNT PULL WORKERS.
Later, that same ally decided to go nukes. 10 minutes and some unsuccessful (one good one though) nukes later, a small MM force charges up my ally's ramp and completely owns him because he didnt make any units. -_______~

What's hilarious is that we were getting demolished. If it weren't for that they would've won.
I'm actually crying with laughter at this.
Mine isn't as good, I was playing 4v4 with some friends and one of them was new to the game, he was P and 15 minutes into the game I look at his base and am like 'dude wtf wheres your warp gates' and he goes 'i prefer gateways they make units faster'.
