We actually just fast forward to the relevant part of "Like a 'Toss".

just had the most tilting game ever where toss canon rushed, i killed it and his base. he proceeded to run around the map cannon guarding, and me, being horrible at macro, ended up chasing around the entire game. he eventually gets a mothership and VRs and i just ragequit.

seriously one of the most frustrating things ive ever seen in my entire life.

One thing to realize is that pretty much all cannon rushers will try to do this very thing if you deny their initial aggression. Seriously. Once you have them contained, expand expand expand, and put a probe out at every possible expansion location, or have observers constantly patrolling. You need to catch their expansion attempts before they can get defenses up. And take islands ASAP if there are any, cannon rushers love those if they can sneak off in a warp prism. Put a few cannons at each of your bases and tech to blink stalkers and you should have the mobility to chase down their VR's and whatever else.

Brag: Over 1k points
Beat: Platinum league
Variance: Scouted a protoss doing a fast forge expand. I managed to sneak my scouting drone into his base and get proxy hatchery win. So satisfying.

brag: won an ffa with terran to get the all-race-ffa achievement
beat: took three tries
variance: guy called me a noob hoemo for going mmm in an ffa. apparently ffa is where you're supposed to try out new strats instead of 1v1 ladder. says the silver league player...

I'm glad nobody has called me a noob hoemo. That would definitely hurt my feelings.

I want to have a huge base race where neither of us have any minerals and it comes down to me having one probe and my opponent has one SCV.

such rage! thankfully the trend doesn't seem to be catching on very fast.

I'd imagine some day going to need a raven to just leave the base in midgame.

the second time it happened to me, I was off screen throwing down some rax and just caught the end of my army disappearing. facccckkk.

Fwiw, I didn't scout the baneling nest after the early game., so my fault too.

Was teaching a friend how to play with the insane AI....and he wonders if they cheat. I watched a replay and it's a little fishy since I have 35 scv's + 1-2 mules while he has 42 drones and my income is 800-900 while his is 1700-1800?! He expanded while my friend didn't, but we checked and he only had 4 drones at the expo =/

seriously considering switching to protoss. terran is starting to bore the hell out of me. protoss just seems more fun!
