A question,

I was planning to make an "official" community FaceSwap Photoshop's thread. Like the ones from Asus ROG tournament. I've made some faceswaps shops I can upload and want to also give the community option to upload high quality screenshots/pictures they want to get faceswaps from. And I'll see to Photoshop them as soon as I can. The thread would be updated weekly (if not more frequent than that) with new Photoshop's.

Now my question is what are the chances a thread like that would not be closed as I'm gonna put some effort in maintaining the thread and I don't want it to be for nothing (that it gets closed)?

Not really a good story but whatever.
I saw him in Paris randomly at the WWI as he walked past before any of the tournament games were played and went "Yum Bo Sung!!". He stopped and turned and looked at me as if he was amazed to be recognised outside of Korea. I got him to sign my Ponyshirt and shook his hand.
A week or so later we played on US West (I think). It was a PvT on Blue Storm and he 1 fac expanded and I did a dt rush with a second gate timed to the archives completion and two zealots and a dragoon as my only units up to that point. I used my zealots and dragoon to snipe his missile turret and overran his nat with the dts but he lifted off and I couldn't finish off his main because of a turret further back. I expanded immediately after my first two dts while heading to arbiters and was briefly ahead but he crawled turrets back and retook his natural and then destroyed me with vulture harassment and drops. Eventually he nuked me.
But as I took his natural he said "nice build". That game was the first time I'd had ladder shakes in years.

There's more to dt rushing than just making dts Chill.
The same general theme can be executed very differently by a D rank player and a B rank player. Characterizing all dt rushes as the same is no different to characterising all fast expansion openings as the same when, like any other build, the skill of the player has a huge impact in how well it works. I opened with a dt rush which I made do a lot of damage by abusing the low threat and high hp of the zealots to snipe the turret at an unexpected timing which meant that although he knew the dts were coming the natural still fell. He had the stuff to defend vs my units with micro, my zealots/dragoon weren't a threat to his expansion but were sufficient to get the turret which couldn't dance like the marines could and he didn't have time to replace it before the dts hit. I took units, all of which he knew about and which were collectively no threat to him and used them in a way in which his micro advantage couldn't be brought to bear and the timing caught him off guard.
The fact that he pulled back with dropship multitasking and beat me in the late game doesn't make the description of a dt rush and loss valid. I have no idea why you saw the need to add "and lost" there as if I should be embarrassed to lose to Sea, I'm really not.

The fact remains that I was tactically pretty competent, it certainly wasn't my mechanics that got me to the level I made it to.

It's been done. Although I've not played bw far too long. Now I think about it it's not even installed on my current computer which is really, really depressing. What happened?

You should leave your computer right now and go stand in the corner for 15 minutes and think about why you don't have it installed.

I masterfully selected all my units (but not the DT!!), pressed the "a" key, and then accurately and precisely clicked on his Turret.

Waiting until only AFTER (!) it was dead, I then selected my one DT, pressed the same "a" key, and selected the empty space in the perfectly-centralized location in his natural.

Strokes of brilliance.

Sir, you have correctly identified that starcraft is a game of decision making. The impressive bit was the bit where I decided to use those units in that way, the pressing of the buttons was actually pretty simple.

Your all-in would be more impressive if it didn't account for 80% of your games and if you didn't think DT rushing and targeting an isolated Turret somehow made you a tactical mastermind.

I expanded immediately after my first two dts while heading to arbiters and was briefly ahead but he crawled turrets back and retook his natural and then destroyed me with vulture harassment and drops. Eventually he nuked me.
But as I took his natural he said "nice build". That game was the first time I'd had ladder shakes in years.

Kwark explaining meticulously about how he DT rushed and lost and spinning it into how he's a tactical mastermind. Never change Kwark.

I masterfully selected all my units (but not the DT!!), pressed the "a" key, and then accurately and precisely clicked on his Turret.

Waiting until only AFTER (!) it was dead, I then selected my one DT, pressed the same "a" key, and selected the empty space in the perfectly-centralized location in his natural.

Strokes of brilliance.


Sir, you have correctly identified that starcraft is a game of decision making. The impressive bit was the bit where I decided to use those units in that way, the pressing of the buttons was actually pretty simple.

Your all-in would be more impressive if it didn't account for 80% of your games.

After reading lilsusie's blog, anyone else have any good sea[shield] stories?

Not really a good story but whatever.
I saw him in Paris randomly at the WWI as he walked past before any of the tournament games were played and went "Yum Bo Sung!!". He stopped and turned and looked at me as if he was amazed to be recognised outside of Korea. I got him to sign my Ponyshirt and shook his hand.
A week or so later we played on US West (I think). It was a PvT on Blue Storm and he 1 fac expanded and I did a dt rush with a second gate timed to the archives completion and two zealots and a dragoon as my only units up to that point. I used my zealots and dragoon to snipe his missile turret and overran his nat with the dts but he lifted off and I couldn't finish off his main because of a turret further back. I expanded immediately after my first two dts while heading to arbiters and was briefly ahead but he crawled turrets back and retook his natural and then destroyed me with vulture harassment and drops. Eventually he nuked me.
