Hey guys, 1st post, thought I've been reading without an account for quite a few months, It feels good to finally post :D
So anyways, on a popular WoW Website they have an "Arena MS Paint Rage thread" (Link below) where players generally draw comical imbalances about the game in microsoft paint, so i figured, if WoW has it, why not SC2?
Please refrain from language Which may be frowned upon by TL staff, racist comments, etc, the usual, and if quoting someone else's picture to comment, put it in a spoiler tag so if this thread works, we don't get page after page of the same image. (:
This picture, to get us started, iS mine, it's not very good as my MS paint skills are mediocre as best =P have fun guys.
*If there iS any problem with this thread- Please edit/move it to right place/remove it entirely, mods. thanks*
EDIT: some of the things coming out of here are really amazing, and I'm sorry i didn't contribute more (Been caught up with school work) but please keep it SC related guys, and if it's not SC related at least let it be OC (Original content) not some random pic you got from Reddit, :D
I'm too lazy to actually draw a cannon, so I used something which was sort of the right shape, ignore the fail OP picture, but maybe draw some better ones? Just sayin'.

Pretty sure it's the Protoss forcefielding the ramp to keep the Terran units out, but instead it's the Terran having hundreds of units once his sentries have ran out of energy (purple bars depleting on the right hand side).

oh yeah you're right I didn't get the whole purple bar thing I thought the blue guys were terran units for some reason haha.

Impressive. I only saw a tie fighter. It made no sense.
I don't understand this one. The pics that are about half truths are funny, but this one makes no sense. CC first vs protoss is insta lose on most maps.

Learn to defend? I CC first vs protoss as my main build.

To be fair, that doesn't mean much unless you prove you're actually good... For all we know, you could be in bronze.
Also hopefully other people start drawing comics better lol. I used to be in to WoW and read through every single page of the paint rage thread on AJ, and you can understand all of them really well. Some of these ones take me 30 sec to figure out.
I love this thread! Use to love reading these on arenajunkies back in the wow days, ill try make a picture when i get the time! :D Keep the funny pictures coming!
I totally made probably 5 "Fuuuuu" comics in that arena junkies thread back when I played about 1 1/2 years ago. Anyway, I hate it when this happens, especially since you can't do anything once the fungals land. -_-
Queueing marauders is the same as missing a warp in or sets of warp ins T_T
Just because you get that round of units doesn't mean you have been "forgiven" for macroing poorly. By missing warp ins for a long period you still have to play "catch up". Unless of course you had some ridiculous number of gates that you could only produce out of for 1 cycle off the bases that you currently have...
Sorry for seriousness. My fave one so far is Star of David rush.

But it sure is nice to have units instantly when they are pushing up your ramp as opposed to waiting 30 seconds for a marauder, isn't it?
I dunno if it's come up yet, but the original "MS Paint Rage Dump Thread" was not from WoW forums, it was from the DotA forums and then copied by a fair few communities (as noted there was Arena Junkies, there's a 100+ page thread on the HoN forums, etc). Always quality stuff.

Wow, I am so impressed by your interpretation. I just stared for a minute and didn't have a clue what was going on.

I laughted but I really think this should be limited to PAINT artworks and not just MEME + copy paste + text + MEME otherwise it should be going in the random picture thread imo.
Don't have anything against memes in particular but in this thread they take away from some of thoze amazing sequences like the ones of whatthefat.
Someone should really do one of these with hellions!
Something like this: "Hellions in my base, I'll run away with all my workers" (Workers die) "Hellions in my base, I'll split my workers" (Workers die) "Hellions in my base, I'll do nothing" (Workers die) "Hellions in my base, I'll burrow my drones" (Workers die)
NOTE: The SCV's were selected again because I tried to do an SCV split. I forgot that I had them selected when I saw the CC not producing and then I pressed S.

Nice drawing! Nah I don't think you're the only one. That used to happen to me all the time in BW. I used to build worker first in BW but I think in SC2 it's actually better to move your workers first, because you have two extra workers in SC2 at the beginning (6, not 4).
So in your case I would say try selecting all the workers and moving them first, then building your 7th, then splitting three off before they all get to the minerals.

thx :D
I think it's always good to get your scv's out asap. it's quite easy to produce the 2nd scv without a delay even if you go scv first. And I always see all the pro's go scv first as well... I guess it hardly matters at silver level though :/

Nexus first and 1 Gate Nexus are both a lot harder to punish than 1 Rax Expo and CC first dies to the first Stalker. Your picture makes no sense! :D
Just a correction; the whole MS paint rage-thread idea came from DotA, all the way back when DotaAllstars.com was still operational. Somehow I find the idea that it originated from WoW insulting -_-.

I just had to put that out there.
I remember them from DotA too, but I wasn't sure if they came first from that or WoW. I don't think it really matters but the ones back in DotA were funny ^^
Regarding the last 2 posts... I'm not sure whether or not it's clear on how to post these types of images.
The one with the colossus, I understand... but I don't get. Is this a reference to how sometimes the colossus walks back and forth over a cliff trying to get somewhere?
Second one... I'm guessing is a joke about how long it takes to make brood lords?
I don't know... I guess they are just too ironic and lack sufficient comedic relief for me. Either way, nice effort / good work / keep them coming.

I love this thread.
it's about how the collosus can't walk over those 1meter gaps in maps like crossfire and gets separated from his group of stalkers who can blink across.
this is why I think terran on 3 bases is as scary as protoss on 3 bases. I could do so many harassment and wipe him push all the time but he will just come with another x amount of marines tank push again anyway.
OK GUYS... i just finished this, i spent 3+ hours on it... so I REALLY hope you like it. I have never done anything like this before, and i've just been waiting and trying to think of something that would actually be funny and this is what I came up with!
(hopefully you enjoy!)

Ok so the story is about PvT / TvP... pre- 1.4.2 patch ghost dominated the matchup. protoss could only HOPE to land a lucky feedback before the ghost EMP everything in sight, but everyone knows that 9/10 times it just didn't happen. AFTER the 1.4.2 patch (which was supposed to address EMP in the TvP matchup) the only thing that changed was a slight reduction in the EMP blast radius. So what are terrans doing now? Getting another ghost or two (see 1 more ghost in picture).
I was deciding between doing this and my other idea was to have the bottom slide be the same as the top slide but with 4 smaller EMP's instead of 2 big ones... but I figured this would get the same thought across.
the "sup son" is select's famous quote. figure'd it to be appropriate for the ghost to be saying since in reality, the EMP nerf barely changed the matchup.
