| One of my last Melee games I played with a new account I created called Tenor. I was angry for some reason (I can't remember why), and I felt like playing a 2v2 on Lost Temple. I also chose to be Terran, my (by far) worst race.
I started off the game by teching immediately to Vultures. I had built two factories, so I started pumping them out. At the same time, I built a Starport. I sent the Vultures (now with mines) into an enemy Zerg base. He killed a couple with sunken colonies at his expansion, but the other two slipped into his main, unprotected base and killed off most of his workers. I planted mines in his workers and send my vultures back behind his mineral deposit. He sent hydralisks after my vultures. The mines followed his hydralisks and destroyed more of his workers, but he killed my vultures.
While all that was happening, I was building Wraiths back at my base. Once I got a couple, I attacked my other opponent. He was Zerg, too, and had hordes of Hydralisks attacking my ally. His Overlords were defenseless, so I took out all that I could find before he brought some Hydralisks to kill my Wraiths.
While that was happening, I was expanding. I created four (yes, four) Command Centers. and started pumping out Siege Tanks and Marines. I put one Command Center at my expansion and forgot about the others until I made a Science Facility and began making Nuclear Silos. The Zergs tried attacking me together, but I had too many tanks, Marines, and Vultures for them to really impact me at all. Once they attacked, I began to attack: I pushed the first Zerg with tanks while planting mines using Vultures. I dropped two nukes on his expansion and started building a couple more. A couple of my command centers were still just doing nothing. Before the second wave of nukes hit, both the enemies left.
The most interesting thing about this game was that I went into it just screwing around; I hate the Terran race, I expected to get rushed (two Zergs on temple?) in the first place, and I never expected to win. I ended the game with four or so spare Command Centers. I just started building them instead of supply depots. |
