Ever had a game where you were just outplayed in every way? Where even if you corrected your mistakes you'd still have been walked all over?
Yeah I just had one of those. It sucks. It makes me want to quit but I know a day later I'll be back playing or at least thinking about playing.
Feel free to tell your humiliation stories or better yet post replays.
My one? I just went up against a terran who knew how to play. I'm barely a D toss because I never get the time to play but I have a rough idea of what to do and of build orders, I got owned. I failed to stop harassment, I lost probes left right and center, he cought and raped my probes while trying to expo like 5 times and the final humiliation was a push that even if I had all my expo's up I doubt I'd have been able to break it. ouch.

i got beaten by a girl once.
|
usually its when i lose to someone i could've beaten is when it bothers me, if I lose to someone better than me it doesnt bother me.

About 3-4 years ago, when all the stuff I could do were fast dt and dt drops, me and a friend got 1v2'd by some guy.
I don't have the replay, but then again, even if i'd still had it I wouldn't post it.
EDIT: what the hell at all the people beaten by girls

ibutoss what's ur icc username? Looking for some aussies to add to my icc f list
|
G-d its hurts to admit it... I..uh... got beaten by pure scouts as zerg. Try to imagine a scenario where this could happen, I bet you're thinking like maybe he sniped some ol's and his advantage compounded and the zerg just got slowly overwhelmed? WRONG, he massed two control groups of the suckers, expanded to 4gas bases and rolled my HYDRA army...I didn't play again for 6 days...
|
I had the opposite today... I dished out an iccup humiliation for once. xD
I got about 70% of my probes killed by a 4/5 pool and still went on to win.

hahaha, that is awesome. replay!

I went 12 pool to someone that went Random. I scouted that he was terran and was going 2rax academy. I put up 3 sunkens and made some zerglings while stalling for my mutas to finish. He steamrolled me with his MnM army. His APM was 250 with 66% select and 0% hotkeys.

My first game back on iccup after not playing for 2 seasons was on Medusa and I got cannoned from behind on the cliff. I kept playing using my natural and a quick 3rd... then I got rolled over by +1 speedlots.
edit: 1a

can you imagine moving a 150 supply army around the map without any hotkeys?

i once lost to a guy 0 - 12 after going 4 - 0 against him the day before.
In the end, I sat there totally depressed. My opponent figured me out, i was powerless to do anything.

To the OP. Your case is not that bad. The Terran was clearly a few ranks above you, it's not humiliation if you lose to a superior player. Humiliation is getting owned by some east noob after 30 mins of cursing back and forth.

LOL your opponent studied you and that was the end of that. I've had this happen to many times as well. That's why its never fun to keep playing the same people imo.
Edit: Or actually it's not bad but its more like a situation of being able to outsmart that person.

I remember in my d- days that I beat this guy over and over, now I played him again, and well now he's C+ ~_~ got owned in every single way

When I run into those korean zergs at the beginning of the season that kill me with straight up 3 hatch muta...with the muta. I usually lose faith in myself for that day and do something else. This has happened many times.
As for a specific game...probably when I was new to starcraft and played toss. My friend set up a game on peaks (and I thought I'd put up a fight), and he ends up doing that build that Bisu did to Pokju (2 gate in opponent's base w/ manner pylon). I was stunned because that wasn't even his main race, and it's probably the most humiliating to lose with your opponent proxying you IN YOUR VISION and causing havoc at the same time in your mineral line.

This sounds like something I would do...Just b/c I hate hotkeying with terran. But my hotkeys are nowhere near 250 with terran unless i was stoned.

Man, I just completely got raped by a 350 apm Korean Terran today. I don't even understand how he could get so many marines out. He was like a progamer.

Well I also used to teach this guy sc, way way back, I own in every possible way, off race too, now, he's giving me a lesson in sc :|

i humiliated some bm terran once , in front of obs , mind controlling his drop tank on cliff ( it was on lt) then the dropship traitor just went back from where he came and cliffed his own cliff rofl then the game ended with recalling mass tanks in his main.

lost a ZvZ where my opponent owned me with hydras. But before delivering the final blow, he ensnared my drones so they'd mine slower

I lost to an SCV rush, as well as 4 pool.
|
Today I was owned 3 games in a row after having played for waay to long.
First game I was playing TvP on Colo. I'd been raping C- tosses on my way up to C with the Flash build (having practised the hell out of it after Stylish FPvod). I had also defended almost every type of all in faggotry protosses had thrown against me, like 10/15 into reaver or DT or 14 nex into double shuttle bulldog. Really wierd stuff but I manage to get wins from all my games becasue of how solid the build is and some good turret placement. So naturally I was feeling very confident against any type of aggressive opening. I manage to get my wall up right before his probe can slip in and thus deny his scouting and then I see a cannon warping on top of the choke (Colosseum). Also a zealot is running around outside my wall. I for some reason (maybe because I'm tired and annoyed) say something like "That's a very bad idea" to my opponent because my tank is on the way and I'm starting siege upgrade. Also I made a bunker near my factory because he was going to break my wall after a while. On this position I had made my wall so that a marine could run through but a zealot can't and because of that my marine that I thought I had hold positioned ran out and got killed by the zealot. The barracks was in a position so that when the next marine popped out he died to the cannons before he could get to the bunker. So I died from that horrible rush and said my GG in shame.
Game two I'm off racing as zerg and I allways try to go 12 hatch opening into scourge / hydra into lurker etc. However he scouted me on the first try and followed my drone to the expansion to block it. I anticipated this and sent a second drone to the second nat (again on colosseum) and made my first hatch there. It happened that I scouted him last and saw that he went for the gate -> nexus -> forge build. I fended off his harass fairly easily but had to maynard some drones away and thus got a later tech going. So I knew that I couldn't go for the spire before hydra den without losing all my overlords to the corsair harass. So instead I thought I would go for a fast evo chamber and get +1 carapace + spores. I could then fend off his earlier zealot timing attack that I scouted and still get defense for the corsairs. So I decided to go lurker / ling with fast carapace. His timing attack came sooner than I had anticipated and while he inflicted some damage I was till fine economically. Then I realised he had followed up with reavers. I didn't have a spire or any hydra upgrades so he WTF kwanrolled me easily ><
Game 3 I played zerg again vs a terran. He did mech which I prepared for with an early sunk because I saw his barracks was not making marines and spotted the early gas with an overlord. His first vulture was deflected immediately and I was going for a 2 hatch muta build. I sacrificed an overlord to see that he hadn't even started ebay when I started building my mutas. His armory was just starting. Then his second vulture runby attempt came. He had 4 vultures vs my sunken and 5 zerglings that was walling the entrance. Miraculously he got one vulture in my base and goes right away for my main hatch. He lays a mine at my larvae (with mutas almost done inside) and I realised that if I kill the mine my muta attack will kill him off. So I send 5 drones to kill the mine. I sweat to god one more attack from a drone would have killed it. Instead it killed 5 drones and 3 mutalisks. GG!
I was tired hungry and playing very sloppy during these games but it's still amusing that I manage to get killed by totally ridiculous things three games in a row

About a year or so ago, I got totally humiliated by the uh... stove build. My face was literally like O_O throughout the whole game, I didn't know what the fuck was going on. I got so discouraged, I didn't come back to SC till a few weeks after.
|
dude, even if you were B+ on iccup.. you would still be a noob compared to A+ players. SC is about having fun... find some players of the same level as you and mass games not on ladder. that is what we usually do in my clan of noobs. we get better and have fun too. just randomly coming on iccup as a beginner is very detrimental to gaining skillz

i tried to proxy 2 gate in my opponents nat on python i saw an scv coming down the ramp so i thought it was his main (3 oclock position) i build the 2 gate right at the min third and started to rally lots they got there..nothing there... the scv was an early scout he was at the 6 o clock position even worse he scouts it after 4 zlots pop and types "? LOL"

yep, exactly the same for me.
If someone's way better than me I expect to lose anyways, but if someone's way worse than me and I make a stupid mistake to cost the game I want to punch myself in the face.

Lol well let's see. I was playing against this Korean guy... He asked me where I was from, I said Canada. He said GG. I'm not sure if it was because he's Korean and I'm Canadian, or if the timer was going down. It could have been either.
Anyways, I find out later in the game that this guy likes Avril Lavigne. I told him she sucks. Donkey ass. He then told me he would win me. He sure did.

i once destroyed twice the natural of the protoss, i was on 3 base he bascily on one, and he overrun me with a timing. I really did well, microed well, he just produced units mostly zealots and run me over when i felt confortable on my economic advantage, and my maccro was lacking

Definitely true. It usually happens when I play too much, so its a good signal for me to stop for the day. (However I always ignore it and keep playing)

it kills the eggs forming the mutas ;o

What bothers me the most is when I play on top of my game and still don't stand a chance. It is very rare that I play a really good game to my standards, but it does happen every now and then and when I play like a B- player (I'm around C level), I still get raped although I feel like I did no mistakes at all.

I knew that games reminded me something. http://www.iccup.com/starcraft/details/3251278.html It was more 4 vults than one though, and my armory was finished when you were starting your 3 mutas. Also two mines aren't enough to kill eggs so your mutas were stille alive (even though the mines did kill 5 drones). :p Well since you're not zerg i guess it doesn't matter !

I got offensive sunken rushed 4 times in 1 day while playing colosseum (im terran). Lost all 4 of the games too, due to panicing.
Then my really low level clan (C- average) had a clanwar against Division 1 team ]eX[ in which we got absolutely slaughtered. Ahhh it was a good day lol
|
there was this one game..
|
I got pissed at this guy who was staying in the game too long so I tried to write GG out in pylons but.....I ran out of room Epic fail there
|
Oh man. First game I ever played 1v1... PvZ. I almost won, because I set up a contain and rolled through his base, but he got a hidden expo out about 30 seconds before i got the contain, and I didn't realize it until i was almost all the way through his base and he hadn't GG'ed. Then he took out my nexus and most of my probes with mutalisks, then expanded all over the map and rolled me with mutaling.
Next game we played, he proxy hatched my natural on python.
Next game, he 4 pooled.
Next game, he 4pooled.
I got pissed off and we didn't play again for a while.
On another note, I usually play a lot over LAN on campus with a bunch of people between classes, but there's this one kid who is absolutely horribly. 17 APM protoss. I bring in a friend of mine who is a 200-APM terran, and we tell this kid that my friend is terrible and he should play him. So he does. Hilarity ensued. I've done the same thing with my zerg friend i was talking about earlier.
Reps to follow.

I lost to a pvp to a guy that made 2 cores then laughed about it in game on east..........

The Stove was a classic humiliation build basically. As far as I remember it consisted of getting a scout ASAP to your opponent and following that up with DT then fast arbiter.
|
Um, probably sending my drone to make a 12 hatch, getting it blocked, sending another drone, the probe killing one, almost killing the other, so I go to make an extractor to get hp back and HE BLOCKS IT WITH AN ASSIMILATOR FIRST and then kills my second drone
|
i was playing 3v3 BGH with my buddies (cuz they suck at sc) and i went 1 base carriers, but then the other protoss scouted it and massed dark archons and i got owned =[, we were winning too cuz i took out the other 2 already and then i fly into his base with carriers and i see like 12 DA's waiting for me and i'm like "oh shit. -__-". Remember my buddies suck so we end up losing 3v2
|
I nearly forgot. One time I was playing my friend a terran on destination.
I walled off my third but was a bit late sending in my probes, my friend MANNER RAXED ME. He sent a scv through my pylon wall and built barracks at the mineral line in between my nexus and minerals.

Stove is like this crazy weird p build. You open with scouts and harass them to force earlier turrets, then you get DTs(which doesn't make sense because he already has turrets, but you do it anyway.) From there you tech arbs.

I have lost so many games it is ridiculous. Only humiliation units I have not lost to are mass ghosts or mass dark archons; waiting for that day lol.
