@DSquid: For someone who I 2v1'd late at night, after a hard work out, with sore forearms, and not in the mood for competition, you sure try to make me out to be a fool.

Maybe, just maybe, you don't understand the game as much as you think you do considering your skills in the game are quite lacking. You're just a low gold (you're probably lower since you haven't played enough games to balance out) but you seem to think you're in the Master league. All you really do is complain about such and such imbalance because you can't use them or can't fight them and then get offended when someone with more skill than you has learned different. I mean, seriously, you massed NOTHING but Stalkers the entire game despite the fact that I had tons of Mauraders and Ghosts constantly EMPing you. You know very little of counters or what works when.

Tychus, I've never played you. Ever.

Really? See attachment.

Despite it being one of the most awkward games in my gaming career (because of mental tiredness and forearm soreness) you were not a challenge at all. No, I wasn't even playing good so this isn't bragging. Hell, I raised my barracks to make tech labs but instead accidentally made more reactors about twelve times. I never do that in a game I'm playing serious. I also never rush to nukes. But, somehow, that worked to great affect.

Simply put, and without sinking to your level of insults, your strategy, unit choice, and timing were completely wrong. I hate to be rude/blunt but you need it. You know nothing about this game and it's a shame that so few people have played with you or else everyone else would know how limited your knowledge is of this game. You are not a master. You are not Skyze. Yet you act like Skyze and others superior to you don't know what they're talking about. Stop arguing with people who know more than you. Arrogance is one thing, and it's a quality of you I can almost appreciate, but what you're doing is pure stupidity.

Tychus, I have never ever played you. There are about 999 Cthulhu's running around battle.net.

Are you that embarassed that you're going to try to deny everything? Normally, I'd let it go because I don't care but it seems it's gotten to the point that you need something like this to help you grow as a person. If that's not you, answer me this:

How many Cthulu's are there that have befriended Gradius and Sarov? I also played with you when I was gaming with Sarov. I know you. I know your playstyle, your stategies, and your quickness to blame others for how the game is going despite the fact that you are doing nothing to make it better. You even used jokes in that game that you use on this forum ("I transitoned into losing my base"). You even went on about how you hate Sahara's attitude and Crota's voice (Sorry if either of you read this ) There may be tons of Cthulu's but none of them are friends with Gradius, Sarov, use your jokes, frequents SCL and talks about forum politics, and constantly insults commentators.

It was you. There's no denying it.

[DemolitionSquid]

Ok, I just watched the replay. Yes, thats me. I wasn't aware your ID was DecardLee, thought I was playing someone I didn't hate. Nice nukes btw. In a non-serious game, late at night. Good job.

Finally.

Now, riddle me this. Being of the skill level you are, why do you constantly argue with even a person who has been a progaming coach and been on the top 200. You don't have to answer. I don't want this to go on any longer. I just want you to think about that.

I've heard of inflated egos. I even have one. But, you, you have a serious reason malfunction.

I've heard of inflated egos. I even have one. But, you, you just have something seriously wrong.

Why do I argue with you? Because nearly everyone else in this thread has agreed with me the Viking is OK as is. Doh.

Man, who knew debating on a forum was wrong.

[TheEconomist]

I never said there was anything wrong with the Viking. You made the Viking out to be some Immortal vs Roach level of counter. I simply explained how it wasn't. Besides, popular opinions mean nothing. I could be the only person on this forum who says something and still be right. It's unlikely but still possible. It's funny how you go on and on about how stupid the average person is and how popular opinion is wrong, yet, when it suits you, you don't hesitate to use that leverage.

[DemolitionSquid]

The Viking is good enough against Mutas as is. It does damn well if you're the kind of prude who absolutely refuses to build Thors, and still makes Marines. That's all there is to it.

Yeah, Immortal and Roach right there.
