Today, I noticed there were 20 something ppl in the Op Teamliquid channel. Naturally, one thing led to another, and voila, we had some Race Wars. For those of you who don't know what Race Wars is, it's basically, everyone goes random, and then you ally people of the same race. It's mad wicked fun, here is a battle report (from my perspective) of one of the games.
The Contenders
NyM)Pack (Brown)
cobaltblu (White)
elev3n (Orange)
Terran (The Pride of Battle)

blau_grana (Teal)

Nazza131 (Blue) (Me)
Garreeet (Yellow)
The game starts off. I spawn as Zerg. I decide that since this is FFA and all, people are most likely to rush and stuff. So I decide that I should 9 pool. What I don't know that this is on Killing Fields. Killing Fields is an imbalanced map made by Blizzard, and is 256 x 256 big. In other words, it's FRICKING HUGE. I'm already off to a great start.

I meet my one and only Zerg ally. I also scout around and see some T's around. Naturally, I make a proposition:
