How is that a brag, lol? I'm like gold-plat but play like 5 unranked games every week. And yeah, you can micro a hellbat. I didn't have charge at the time. He could have stutter-stepped for like half a screen and drawn the zealot into his siege tank fire.

The gif is really funny, love it! Thanks!

The story about how you "dismantled him" him with "multipronged warp prism harass" and "well-placed DTs" is not really relevant (and yes, it's clearly bragging...) but that is ok. You are allowed to feel good about a win when you played well, gratz. Probably a good choice not to include the rest of the conversation if it only was the usual "WHHAAHHH I LOST!! MUMMY!!!" (and possibly some BM back from you? :p), so well done on isolating the fun part.

Then the reason that a zealot beating a hellbat is not a relevant argument is not a matter of stutter stepping imo (specially not in gold, surely he can use his actions for better things...), but rather that 10 hellbats beat the crap out of 10 zealots, and probably many more. But that is not really a discussion for this thread, sorry.

Well I think I got something that suits this thread.
So I got demoted to plat this season out of not playing a lot after being diamond for a long while and sometimes masters. I go for a 1V1 game as terran, and get matched against a dude that plays random. So I ask him if he's going to tell which race he is playing, to which he answers "r". So I type a smiley face and tells him to enjoy his stupid advantage, to what he answers that I have serious manner problems. Whatever, I say hf and carry on.
I open 12/12 reaper (don't really know what to do against random so I guess it's a good all around). I scout early, see that he's zerg. He proxy hatches me (against reaper opening, yeah). I try to bunker his nat with my scouting scv and fail, I kill his hatch, don't scan for creep cause he hid his queen. So I'm like fuck this and float my CC to the gold base (it was on habitation station or whatever). The game was already pretty weird, I made a banshee and a tank cause I thought he was going to all in hard, but as he didn't I try to transition into bio. I played pretty bad so I expect to loose to a giant flood of stuff, but as I start killing his creep I see 2 locusts making their way towards my army. Yeah, this dude tried to play SH against bio/tank after proxy hatching.
The rest is of little interest, he had very few units and I pretty much killed him. Once dead, he proceeds to place hatches all around the map. I thought that was funny for something that complained about my manners, so I told him that he should use his time to check how to play properly as what he did was really weird. He says that I have serious manner issues again. I finally eliminate him from the game. I check his profile, he had 7K games played, only 1V1, and has been in master league one time. Just as I see that, a chat window pops :
"oh nice. you have even dropped you MMR as it is now in mid to low plat. reported you for MMR abuse"
Cause I got promoted back in diamond at the end of the game. He blacklisted me then, cause it's good manners to accuse people of random shit and then not allow them to answer. I mean, this dude had been masters too (half my plat league was diamond + actually cause of mrr decay lawl). Well, for once I hadn't been too bm when getting cheesed, that'll teach me to be nice.

Just today, I was playing ZvT on Alterzim. He went mass marine plus 4 siege tanks, I went muta/ling/bane. I sent my lings into his army, and got 10 mutas to kill the tanks. Instead of focusing my mutas, he let his marines free-fire, and ended up shooting lings while losing his tanks. I destroyed the rest of his marines using banelings, and he says "f**k u hacker i will report you", then leaves. The real torture comes after the game.
Him: You're the biggest noob I've ever seen.
Me: Why am I a noob?
Him:You use OP units.
Me: Banelings aren't OP. You should learn to split your marines.
Him: Yeah, and you should learn to play this game, noob.
His name was MarinePrince, which given the circumstances I find quite funny. Also, he's level 8 despite having played 1600 games. Is such a thing even possible?

41 seconds in. Is that a record somewhere?

EDIT: Just beat that record, same guy:

Double Edit:

Okay I matched against him again and decided to cannon rush him just to see what he'd say.

Only thing I can come up with is that he hates random (we all know that random players are using random to their advantage...) to the extent that he leaves every game against random (with an appropriate insult first). I guess you are random as you are zerg in some games, and toss in other?

Yeah I've been going Random in about half of my games, and auto-Protoss in the other half.

And the game where he stayed long enough to be cannoned, you picked toss? That would explain why he left the other games (where you randomed to zerg?) but stayed in the third where you were not random.

Yeah I had actually picked Protoss that game iirc.

DARKPIXEL's BM is neither awesome nor is it confusing.

well the level of vehemence is a little confusing to me. i guess the post above linked to the explanation of how players use random to their advantage does prove that darkpixel's opponent is in fact the BM one, picking random and all.
