It all started very innocently, I joined a game labeled 2v2 temple!!! and no one showed up after person #3. We decided on a free for all with the extra space being filled by a comp.
Bob_the_Newt white terran(random) 6:00
Socratez orange zerg(chosen) 3:00
toxicw brown terran(chosen) 9:00
Computer yellow zerg(random) 12:00
I do a 3 rax medarine build, mostly off the top of my head, because medarines are good at killing anything not specifically made to stop them. I send my first marine scouting and find socratez, kill a drone which I thought was heading for his expansion, and move on to 12:00. There I find an orange sunken colony next to the yellow hatch. So thats where that drone was heading. I send the reen to 9:00, and he gets blasted by bunkers at the same time Player 7 has been eliminated flashes on screen.
Things are going well at the main, there have been no attacks after the offensive sunken. I expanded to my natural, got stimpacks, a factory, and began 2 starports. I made dships out of the ports untill my scifacil finished, and then made 2 sv's and researched irridate. Figuring it is now time to do something, I load up 7 dships with m&m, dmatrix the front-runner and drop them all on toxic's main. Thanks to the dmatrix only one dship goes down b4 unloading, although 3 more died to turrets after. The drop totally raped him since he was going all air with a handful of tanks and reens. He retreated to his stronger expansion and I left the m&m in his base to make sure he doesn't come back.
toxicw : whites droppin
Socratez : huh?
Bob_the_Newt : i dropped his ass
Bob_the_Newt : hehe
Is that offensive to u? It was meant as a joke (hence the "hehe"), and besides, when 6 dships worth of m&m hits you, you just got your ass dropped.
toxicw : shut the fuck up
Bob_the_Newt : woa
Bob_the_Newt : calm down there spanky
Over-reaction, methinks? Anyway, I start pumping sv's like mad since I figure Socratez is the only threat now. After expanding to the lower-right island this little exchange occurs.
Socratez : teams???
Bob_the_Newt : huh?
I didnt think anything of it at the time, I later realized that toxicw must have sent him a message to team up and Socratez didn't remember to change who you send it too. Unwitting of this evil deed, I send 4 of my 8 sv's behind Socratez's main and do the dirty-sv-trick, as I like to call it. For those of you who don't know, you take 3 or more sv's have them dmatrix and then irridate each other, then fly them over your opponents worker line, and voila! no more workers. It works best against terrans goind hard-core m&m, but still does great vs. zerg (if you try it vs. toss please kick yourself now). It killed all the drones at his main, and then all at his natural.
After this is done, hydras, ultras, lings, marines, and meds come charging at my natural. Luckily my main m&m group was there, and 3/1 at the time, so it got totaly mowed down.
Bob_the_Newt : wtf?
Bob_the_Newt : fucking teamers
Teaming up is ffa is fucking low. Its just as bad as backstabbing (except on BGH). Thinking i have to do whats needed to kill more than one person, I slap down 4 more starports, 2 armories, and replace the covert ops with a phys lab. My 4 fully charged sv go to check on 12:00, to find that Socratez has taken both its main and its natural for his own. They meet up with 16 or so mutes, and kill them all with 4 irridates. Then they smoke some lurkers and leave.
Well I soon have 7 cruisers and send them with the sv's to toxicw's previously mentioned expan, destroy the turrets with yamatos and torch the rest.
Bob_the_Newt : fucking pussy
toxicw : mouth
Wtf? What a dick. I made sure to insult them after every battle just to make sure they knew their place. Well now my doom fleet heads to the 12:00 natural and wipes it out. Going into the 12:00 main they encounter 8 devos, but they were tighty packed, and managed 2 shots b4 irridate and lasers killed them. The base itself had a HUGE amount of spores, so I left to repair.
My island expan was being hit by toxicw's 8 wraiths that he managed to scrape together (he took the other island). They took out some scv's, but 3 dships full o marines and 2 scans took em out. When my repairs were nearing complete Socratez dropped about 100 hydras on my main. My 5 tanks which were seiged and idle around my cc the whole game finaly got some action. Due to the amount of supply depots crammed into my main, the hydras struggled to get past them uselessly. My now 12 bc's came and killed the rest from a postion where only a few come engage them at a time. I lost only a starport, a few supply depots, and a bc do to Socratez's obvious belief that the unit AI was good enough without his help.
Bob_the_Newt : thats the worst fucking drop i ever saw
The game wasn't very interesting (to read anyway) after this, a basicaly just killed all ground defense with the bcs and had medarines kill turrets/spores. There was one funny moment when most of my bc's and reens where at the other end of the map and my natural got attacked by 3 ultras. My standing force of medarines killed 2 of them, and I had the 8 scv's that were there attack the ultra while the meds healed them! The ultra got like 3 of them b4 being killed.
Well, I soon was mopping them up, and Socratez said "cya" and left. toxicw did the typical newbie thing and disconnected right after. Idiots.
Lesson learned
- backstabbers suck (not BGH ones). If you are a backstabber, treat every curse in this report as if it was there just for you.
only one pic, I was too busy cursing and dealing with toxicw's piss-poor wraith attacks (too numerous and crappy to mention). | | Battle Shots! |  we've all seen this before
