Lifetime Rating for HolyAnarchy{GK}: 5.8333 |  | I was, as usual, talking in Nohunters, asking around for a nice quiet 1vs1. SaltyBallz, master of strange strategies, accepted. I didn't think of pics until late game, so I only have 3.
Map: Shroud Platform (Cool Map, Play it)
Me: Randome protoss, upper right
Dr.SaltyBallz: Terran, Upper Left
I started with a simple double gateway build, pylon on 8, gates on 9 and 10. I made 1 zealot for early defense, then sent a probe scouting, while having about 12 probes working. Usually, I would have 14-16, but Shroud Platform only has 6 patches of minerals at each starting position. I hadn't yet found him when I saw an SCV enter and leave my base quickly. I started 4 more zealots, filling in pylons where needed, spacing them apart in case of nukes later. I sent my probe into his base and found 3 barracks, all churning out troops. I decided here that I would target the terran's biggest lacking: Detection. I started a forge because of M&M's, making 2 photons at my choke point. Hee is when the action started.
---Low Dirty Terrans---
I started a cybercore, having about 6 zealots, when I saw the verrrrrrry edge of a buker being built out of my range of cannons. I quickly destroyed it with my zealots. Now I had expanded to the Bottom Right, and having plenty of gas, threw up and Citadel and Archives. I sent a probe sneaking into his base and built a pylon by his rax, just out of his sight. I made 3 cannons, which started pounding on his rax. Hehehe. I finished 2 Dark Templar and sent them to my choke when in ran about 8 marines, 4 medics, and 6 bats. They took out a photon and zealot before my cloaked assasins killed them. By now, the 1 rax was gone. I started on goon production, and made 6 asap. I sent them, with 2 dark templar and 4 zealots, to my position inside his base. I hacked away at a few depots before he scanned me and a tank took a pot shot. I ran back to my position, and waited for the comstat to run out. I ran back in and killed his machine shop. No More tanks. I started to whoop up his bunker with my goons, having the range upgrade now. I sent all my troops in and killed his comstat, then the scv building the engineering bay that was just underway. I destroyed the rest of his base, and he conceded with a GG. I hope this report doesn't get insulted by Mark, like my last one. JK.

o Get detection EARLY as any race. I dont give a crap if he isn't on gas yet, get it. You'll be glad u did in late game.
o Dont send mass infantry against photons, unless they are upgraded with armor preferably.
Here's some pics, let us pray they turn out. | | Battle Shots! | 
My goons make his depot explode as they grin in their goonish little way.
My forward positoin on him, as he talks about my Templar. Good Templar. Good boys.
Final Stats. Note i outrecorsed him by about 4000 because of 1 expansion.
