Hey guys

since i was so angry about myself/poker yesterday

i decided i wont play pokerz but will play some broodwarz
havent done it in a long time and thought i might try out that iccup thingy

Short summary of my BW history

August 2003 got known to BW by a friend who was a RL friend with Selector at that time ( I for myself didnt met selector ever)
basically we got known due to drug dealing.
all he did was play BW all day + smoke weed

all I did all day was smoke weed and sell weed >-<
So one day we met at his home and smoked some weed.
while being stoned he started talking about how much fun it is to play BW stoned.

So some friends and me + him and some of his friends agreed that it would be fun to play some BW matches while being stoned
( allthough most of us have never played the game before)
Was pretty cool and he gave us a copy of BW and from there on we all started to play BW on a regular base after getting stoned

Well since the weather got worse at that time around November and going when its -10C is not that much fun we played a lot of BW.

we were 8 guys playing
3 of them were kinda good ( he and his Cousin + some friend) 5 of us were all newbs ( basically my friends+me)
After some time it happend that i played a lot with the more skilled guys and soon become much better than my 4 other friends >-<
from now on they didnt want to play with us cause they got pwnd hardcore all the time.

And while i laughed my ass of being stoned and dropping vultures in villian mineral lines doing mines that make whole workers explode they got sad of losing all time.

They quit the game and never touched it again.
That was around April 2004

I have become decent enough to win most 1v1 noob Lts on B.net and so decided i would join a clan.
I praticed on a regular base from now on 3-7games every day till i quit Broodwar in August 2005

I just wasnt going anywhere in that game.


I achieved C- PGT in 2005 middle of season with with 40% winratio ... I had 160apm and won some cw games vs some BWCL 2 divison gamers ( lost the majority though)

i was well aware i had reached the limit of my BW skillz and would have to practice much harder in order to ge to the next Level
But since i had recently started MMA + got a new Girlfriend i lost interest in computer games.

So i took ~ 3 years break without a single game and then played some ZvP vs dusty <3 a few month ago in 2008
I got pwned in a 20 minutes game but i was surprised how i still managed to not completely get raped after 3 years without a single game.


Didnt play more BW afterwards
till February 2009


Some of my MMA friends told me that he was a starcraft player , who played like 7K games from 2000-2003

So we both installed Broodwar again ( thx to the polsih guy who sent me the link <3<3<3 here at LP)
and battled it out for nostalgia

truned out that i surprisingly raped him hardcore 5-0 without losing even a single Building hitpoint during the series ...
At this moment i somehow realized how much Fun Broodwar can be <3

from there on i played a few games on B.net 1v1 LT every now and then and got a 35-16 record.

Today i thought i may finally try this iccup thingy

expected to get raped hardcore even by D players but went surprisingly smooth 5-0 ...
well i was really surprised how bad my opponents were ...
everyone talked how sick starcraft has evolved and how even D players nowadays rape former C players of PGT and stuff ...
well seems i got lucky and none of my enemies had even the slightest idea of what he was doing.

games

1. game ZvZ LT ( palyed LT 4 games since i dont know the other maps yet)
Villian goes for ultra fast muta tech at 12v3 position -> 12pool 11 gas -> few lings , Hive tech
I just go 12pool 11Hatch in main and pump zerglings. he builds a sunken colony and thinks he is save with 6 lings

I run him over with ~ 15 zerglings the momment his spire finished
unfortunately he disced before i finished him off and he didnt have anti cheat on ....
game didnt count as a win for me somehow >-<
but i am too lazy to complain

2. game ZvP LT
Villian was complete noob and sat passive in his main base teching to HT while doing 2 gate opening and building 4-5 zealots then he expands but doenst have a forge
1 go 3 hatch mutas he has not a single cannon -> gg

3. game ZvP LT
Protoss goes FE into sairs
I see his FE and decide to go 2 Hatch fast Mutas instead of macro style.
My spire finishes right when his stargate pops out the first corsair
he has 3 cannons in his main base + 4 zealots and 1 corsair when my 8 mutas + 2 scources arrive
i kill the sair , kill all cannons + many workers -> he leaves

4th game ZvP LT
that one was actually pretty cool
Protoss goes FE into 3 gateways massing speed zealots + Archon and i go 2 hatch slow lurker drop
happens that he has cannons in his both mineral lines but all his 3 gateways +3pylons are unprotected in main base and he doesnt have observers -> 2 lurkers kill the 3 gates and 3 pylons while i expand double and procuce many lings
after that i tech to spire and mass cracklings
after -> 15 minutes , a bunch of drops , some guardian action and shitload of cracklings he leaves the game

5th game ZvP Destination
Villian probably hasnt played vs human enemy before
he build 3 gateways and rushed zealots
ofc 3 hatch can produce more zerglings than 3 gatways can produce zealots
after 6 minutes he is outmassed and gg

wee first 5 games of iccup going 5-0

i may upload replays when someone is interested.

Probably not too intersteing seing me play since i am honestly very bad compared to all u guys.
I dont even have any clue about Build orders , timing and stuff
i just randomly build things that i feel may work in the situation

DustySwedeDude   Sweden. Apr 15 2009 23:01. Posts 8623

I'll give you a rematch if you want ^^

I was A pgt and can't break C on iccup lol


Elite00   United States. Apr 15 2009 23:57. Posts 683

Iccup gets so fucking hard after like C+, especially during korean hours where basically you just end up getting rolled by 400 apm korean terrans on python every single game, well that's what happens to me at least lol.

But yeah, playing at D rank you will find the most inconsistent opponent skill level. A solid D player (someone who hovers around like 1500-1800) usually isn't THAT bad, and will rape the shit out of a low D/D- player who is only D because he isn't 2-12 yet or something because he just reset or has been doing luckbox allin strats on the map of the week to offset a lot of losses.

Lol how in the world would i even consider having a chance vs someone who was like B+ , A- PGT or something when i was a medicore ( negative stats) C- myself ?
u would 10-0 me eaz

well its not like i will go active on BW again ....
it consumes too much time and gives no money reward

But i will play some iccup games for fun every now and then
