Ok I'm confused here. You thought DTs snuck past your bronze ally's cannons and killed your CC, but he didn't, and your ally attacked your CC and killed it himself instead? That's what I'm understanding from this part of your post. Because if that is what happened you don't seem to elaborate at all on how angry you were that he was backstabbing you...But, just as the last of the buildings were dying, I notice more Dark Templars, so I attempt to scan. WTF? No scan? I look back at my base. My Command Center is gone. I had thought that Dark Templars had snuck in past my the bronze ally's cannons and killed it. Nope. The noob decided that he would kill my Command Center and then he would clean up the base.

Wasn't really backstabbing. He just wanted to actually be useful that game, which ironically, ended up costing us the game. I looked at his record and he had only played less than then five games. He kept asking how he could be more useful and said something about "this always happens" so I could only assume that he got tired of every game being him dying and then his allies winning the game.
Anyways, I elaborate on how angry I was after I explained the situation. If I were to do to it there, it would mess up the flow, in my opinion. But, yes, you read correctly. My main was mined and, then left to die because it was useless now with Dark Templars all over the place, and my natural was taken by my friend who gotten 3v1'd. I expanded beside his cannons for protection, you know, make his failcannons actually usefulHe got the idea that he would kill my Command Center and then create his own Nexus, start mining, and then finish the game himself. Which ended up costing the game
I guess he didn't know that Command Centers can float and I could just pick another spot instead of his killing it
I'd've been willing to let him have it.
Rest In Peace, Old Friend.

LOL Okay that explains it. Man, that really does suck. Especially if getting bronze players has been happening for the past X amount of games you've been playing.

Yeah, it's been the last 100 games. Apparently, according to Blazur, it's been since the last patch which redid the MM. You'd be amazed at the lulz we get matched with. In one game on Quicksand, my ally and I were massing infantry and we were getting ready to move out only to notice that our ally had no units and no warp hates. He FE'd. I told him to make warpgates but he didn't know how to. He kept, saying something like, "Do you mean Gateways?' I asked him for control, so I made warpgates, warpgated them, then told him to take away control because its troublesome in a micro fest when I have to kite my Marines. Anyways, he didn't know how to use the warpgates to make units so he never made anything that game. That's understandable for a bronze, but he was 300+ games Diamond who mained as Protoss. I had assumed that he was using someone else's account but according to him, he played each of those games. Quite odd.
-- Also, there was somewhat length thread on System Wars that was (tragically) deleted today. Some high level poster (well-known, non-trolling) was arguing that StarCraft 2 was a rip-off of Halo Wars. He attempted to back up his claims with length walls of text. It was hilarious, I wish I had thought to save it. Topics are rarely deleted on System Wars but this one got pretty ugly as the populace of the forum was astounded by his stupidity.
I really need to quit posting funny but non-YT things here, LOL, sorry.
