This game took place back in season 2 of broodwar. I decided I was going to ladder this night, so I started by joining a game 1180 + or something. After usual chat the game start with both of us selecting terran at the last second(I do this because I dont want my opponent to choose his race in function of mine). I was pretty surprised he selected terran, there is not many of us. On to the game !
SOMEONE DONT LIKE DROP:
I started the game by going tech very fast getting gas on scv 11 with 1 rax. After scouting my opponent, I found him at 12 with gaz too and some kind of wall in progress at his choke(I was at 6 btw). AFter seeing this I decided that a drop could make a good start hoping he would put all his defense at his choke. I built 2 factory in quick succession then a starport soon after. When I got my force ready wich consisted of 7 marines 1 scv(ooh im such a dirty bastard) and 2 tanks, I headed for his main. Well to make story short the drop failed without doing much damage :(. he had 1 turret, 1 tank, and some wraith and they took care of my force easily. Well I was behind now, he had pretty much contral of the air( he had 2-3 starport and his natural was running if I remember right, doh !)
ANOTHER DROP GOES DOWN:
I was behind now so to catch up I made some goliaths, added a second starport and an armory to make valkyrie(yes valkyrie ! I was not making much marine so i had enuff mineral and they only cost 25 more gaz than wraith). I also started 2 commands centers. 1 was going to my natural while I floated the other to the 9 starting spot hoping it would go unoticed before I could make some def there. After some recon, I noticed he had top left island and I tried another drop there. The guy was smart tho after seeing I comsatted his island he put his wraith flock to intercept any drop and he killed 2 of my 3 transport worth of goliath ! damn . I managed to retreat the last one at home. The guy said "^^". Dont worry i'll have my revenge! I was thinking, well I hope so :/.
REVENGE OF THE ORC:
AT this point my natural was running in full swing and I was pretty sure he would try a turbo newbie with wraith support. I set up 2 tanks near my cc and floated my e-bay to spot for them. Soon enuff he came. When my tank opened fire on his drop he tried to remove em with his massive wraith fleet but thats when I decided it was time for some payback and sent my 8 valkyries vs his 24 + wraiths. Let me tell you it was a fast and brutal fight. He lost almost all his wraiths to my vicious air fighters before retreating(valks suck eh? haha). AT this point I decided to tell him "^^" hehe. Now I was back in the game and I had control of the air :D. But my opponent was smart seeing I was now the king of the air he made a HUGE army of MM some gols and tanks. While he was making this attack force I expanded to the bottom right island and teched to ghost. I noticed he had took the 3 starting spot, damn stop expanding, I wanna win !
EXPANSION RAMPAGE:
Before I could attack this expansion, he showed up at my 9 expansion with the force I stated before. I had 2 tanks and 4-5 gols there but that was not near enuff to stop him. After destroying my exp, he was not content with it and headed for my main but I was ready for him this time. Remember those ghosts I started training earlier ? well they were pissed now and they decided to lock his 5 tanks + 1 vessel then I moved my own tanks in and the result of his infantry vs my tanks was lots of blood and some barely scratched tanks. I took this opportunity to share the love and went for his 3 expansion with my now pretty big ground force and destroyed it without much resistance. Soon after I went for his island and destroyed it again without much difficulty. Seeing how easy it was I tough I was victorious but I still decided to expand to the 3 natural(Little did I know of what was to come). So my opponent was up to his main and natural(second natural too but at this point I didnt knew). I tried to go frontal door to his main but he had good defense still in place. I tried a nuke but failed, so I decided bah lets go the easy way and started battlecruiser to finish him off.
OMFG!! :
Thats when he decided to show up with no less than 14-15 cruisers ! I was like OMFG (at this moment I didnt understand how he could have that but after reflexion he had 4-5 base during the game so it was really possible). His bc fleet went on a rampage mission killing the troops I had in front of his main then destroying my expo at the 3 natural( I was down to my island only). He then seemed he was going for my island but he decided to come to my natural instead. I had trained 7-8 bc's now but this was no match to his 14-15 and 2 vessel support. I tried to clone yamato getting some good hit in but I was losing my fleet much faster than him.
MEET MY OLD FRIEND CASPER!
But I still had some surprise for him. I still had my badass army of angry ghosts ! I had like 20 of em. The ghost started to ready their canister riffle with special lock ammo and took down all the massive enemy aircraft ! Ok I had em all locked down but I had only 1 bc remaining to get the job done, it would probably take too long, so I tough about making many turrets under the ships but then a much better idea come to my mind and I started to laught maniacally as we heard the sound :" NUCLEAR LAUNCH DETECTED" while I was nuking him I taught it would be a good time to tell him to "DIE" muahahahah. This battle pretty much sealed his end. He tried a last MM attack but I had bc, marines, vultures, tanks, ghosts greeting him and when I layed the smack on his 2nd natural he surrendered with a "GOOD" and I said "gg".
