Title: 3 hours long Starcraft II game (well... sort-of)
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on June 05, 2012, 01:52:44 am
Basically I was having fun on Monobattles (4v4 games where we can only use one single kind of unit we choose at the start through the entire game) and for some reasons, my entire team ended up choosing Stalkers or randomly ending up with that unit, which is often seen as OP/imba in Monobattles.

Note that I failed hardcore at my 3 gate in that replay, but if you watch it completely, you'll see why the game lasted nearly 3 hours. <_<

(Note that I was AFK for most of the game lol, otherwise I would have quit long ago, since we were pretty much winning lol)

Lol I was actually kinda calm, since I kinda expected someone to do that. I decided to just wait a bit and give control of my units to allies, who decided to surround the entire map with them, then minimize the game while doing other stuff such as going on Omni (and no I didn't play Brood War in the meantime, although I was really tempted to). I checked again every 45 minutes or so. Eventually I discovered he managed to get in a spot where I had removed some units and noticed just in time so he won't kill everyone with mass marines. Then i proceeded in mining out the entire map and then he lagged out.

I am surprised he stayed, though, because normally they always quit after an hour lol.

Btw one day we really need to get 4 together and troll monobattles with weird units combinations and stuff. It's funny to see people's face when we have 4 queens, 4 marines, 4 lings or stuff like that. I wonder how it would be with 4 warp prism where we constantly warp probes everywhere to put cannons there. XD

sadly you cannot warp probes :(

And i'm down to play monobattles with fellow omni-sc2 players :D most likely during weekends tho cuz I work all day and I can only play 2~3 hours during the night, Korean time (which means a lot of you guys should be in school/sleeping/working)

Oh I meant dropping probes. In monobattles you can still carry probes with warp prisms. It's kinda funny when someone decides to do a cannon push late in the game when everyone expects him to rush.

it would be also funny to go 4 player raven game and somehow survive the early game and then mass auto-turret+seeker missile everything

LOL that wouldm be epic actually XD. Also we really need to gather together at one point with Cooliojazz and Builder maybe to do such game.

Also earlier today I decided to 6 pool and the other team had two guys unable to figure out how to defend against it so my entire team did nothing but watch and I won XD
