But to get on with the BR, I played InfestedKakaru on Lost Temple, I choose Terran he chooses Protoss let the game begin.
VITAL INFORMATION:
Map:LostTemple
Ghost~LiZarD(terran)3o'clock
InfestedKakaru(protoss)6o'clock
Observers:OrcManiac(he's one kewl dude and he rox w/terran too!)
BATTLE COMMENCES:
Ok, ditching that little gay 3 fac rush that never works I went with my normail build, 2 rax, academy, factory, expand get the rest of the tech, attack until gg appears on the screen. So I do all that, I send deion out and he find tossie in the 2nd place he looks, I see 2 gates and 3 zealots, okie dokie! On the other hand my opponent scouted me extremely early and tried to kill my rax building SCV but a pack of 3 raging workers ended that in utter failure.
LETS GREET THE ZEALOTS:
I got about 10-12 boys guarding the ramp when he comes in with 3 zealots and a probe( think he wanted to offensive photon me), probe dies very fast and the first zealot get evaporated at the ramp with the rest running away.
MAKING HIS BASE MY BASE:
After that little zealot incident my marines were extremely pissed off and with addition of 2 medics and 2 bats they headed for his main. I kill a zealot on my way there, and waltz up the ramp, I then bring in and SCV and make 2 bunkers there. A battle is fought, I kill a bunch of zealots/goons and 2 reavers with a shuttle but then the 3rd reaver decides that its time to evict me and does.
WHILE ALL THE WAS GOING ON:
Well while my brave marines were fighting the evil aliens I made a CC, factory and ebay. I expaned and made a bunker there, didn't need turret cuz he had no DTs.
HIS ATTACK:
Everything is going nice and merry, I throw down 2 more factories and 4-5 more raxes and chill out, I spent my cash real fast which is a sing of good macro=] I make another CC and prepare to start up my 2nd expansion, I also comsat and find his 9o'clock expansion....must be eliminated. Just as my econ is roaring he tries to take my great econ away from me by attacking with a bunch of goons/temps and zealots I kill the attack but lose lots infantry to storm.
MY EXPANSION:
Remember that CC that I made before, now I try to expand to the 12o'clock but his obserer spots it and 2 reavers take it out before my tanx arrive on the scene, so I float my CC to the lower righ island where its undesturbed throughout the entire game.
SEEING GHOSTS:
Now I got covert ops and lockdown capable ghosts, protoss really shouldn't let me get that spell because I really USE it. I decide that its time for his 6o'clock expansion to die, I send 6 tanx and lots of infantry down there. I comsat and see that he has 3 reavers and a cannon guarding it, I sneak in 2 ghosts and lock 2 of em down the I siege my tank and roll in, his expansion goes down althought I lost a good deal of my M&Ms to his evil storm=[
GAME ENDS RIGHT HERE BUDDY:
Now that his expansion is dead he can no longer fuel his dragoon production and all thats left is his expansion at the gimme and his main. I send everything I got at him including the 3 vultures and lotsa bats for those nasty zealots. He in turn throws everything and the kitchen sink at me but its not enough, my forces overpower his and he conceides with a gg.
LESSONS LEARNED:
-Losing streak suck and finally getting a win feels GREAT.
-As a terran you can't really make stupid mistakes, I kept making them and losing.
-Ghost>Reaver, lockdown is truly powerful when utilized right.
-Terran rox!
SIDENOTE:
He also did a reaver, temp drop on my exp and a reaver drop on my main, but I forgot to put them in. What I can tell you is that I locked the reavers down and killed them, althought he got a good number of peons each time. |
