This is my longest 1vs1 session yet at a very torturing 1 hour 11 minutes, I actually gelt real fatigue duking it out but in the end it was worth it! XD RATATTATTTTATA BANGBANGBANG.


With so many replays showing games going for about 10-20 minutes I wonder how many of you get faced with long drawn out epic-size battles? So far I've had two matches dragging out for about this long, the other one 3 minutes shy of an hour.

if it's a tvt, and considering that the red player had (MUCH) more of an army value, i really wonder how on earth did he lose?o_O

he could have won like ages ago, haha

so, what's the story behind that match?

His value was way way over mine because he spammed vikings, all just sitting in his base. I maintained a chokehold over his base by holding my position just outside his base with crapload of marines, thors and turrets.

Neither one of us dared to commit to full scale confrontation (he had to quietly expand to fuel his viking army) until one point he let loose his viking batallion onto my waiting force outside.


Our armies neutralized each other, but he won that battle with just a few units. Came to attack my base but I somehow repelled his weakened attack with just some minor losses. At this one hour point I think he got tired already, lol! Then I started to push into his base since he ran out of money.

Some highlights :




Just epic. So, moral of the story is, higher value army != victory

wondering why he invest so many on viking for what?
not like you have alot BC or banshee

Novice Kulas Ravine o.o

very clear la your jpeg, you photoshop it before posting ?
if not what gc you using?

lol at mass vikings, seriously, it is only good in anti air...=_="

otherwise, it's like only a bonus that it can hit ground

he could have do a viking drop in your mineral lines though, but i doubt he did that

Well I upgraded my pc about two weeks ago. That's sc2 on ultra detail. Running on asus gts450 , i5 760 and 2GB DDR3 kingston. None of them are really high end stuff but you know how well blizzard code their games. No perceivable lag (I don't really monitor the framerate).

the game feels long because the map is a novice map so i presume its practice league and thus on a NORMAL speed...
regular games are on FASTER speed which is faster by 40%...
thus 1 hour is only 36minute in fact =p

vikings = op anti air machine, on ground = helpless robot...kinda...XD

whoa, is really 1 hr = 40min on faster? interesting...didn't know that till now...haha

55+ mins, played with a diamond zerg.... very stressful........

mine was 45mins...
playin wif a toss...keep pushing n def till the battle is settle wif ultralisks + lings

Mine was a 55 minutes game but it was a 4v4 with friends, almost stalemate. ALL of the minerals completely mined out, was using my barracks and factory to scout for team mates when I rate out of units and cash LOL!

lol...funny but not epic
2 of my longest games are in the bronze league,playing tarren.
both 45minutes+, funny thing is. turtle and wait for him to come or me to engage him.
eng up i won both matches,because my bro was behind commanding me what to do with the 3k minerals. lolz
it was tense and not fun at all, at the beginning as a noobie~

Believe it or not, the longest game i've ever had lasted for about 8 hours.

Was a TvT and we reached a stalemate. Had about 8 marines, he had 3 banshees. I decided to lift off and go to sleep, hoping he would just leave. Little did i know, the bugger was just as kiasu and did the same. Woke up in the morning to find that i lost the game due to a disconnect

tat really LMAO ~
go slp pulak...lolz

LOL! You're living proof that longest battle does NOT always mean hard battle. So it was banshees VS medivacs loaded with marines eh ?

i think it's more like 3 banshees flying around a floating cc...LOL

Yeah, marines couldn't reach his floating factory (no medivac) and banshees obviously couldn't fire at my floating cc lol. He did end up killing all my marines though. I suspect that he to, went to sleep after that as well. It was just 7 hours of a CC and Factory patrolling around the map. Kinda cute actually if you imagine that.

So far none of my 1vs1 matches last longer than this, but the biggest battles now come from the 3vs3 matches that I've had the good luck of enjoying with 2 other friends VS the computer.

I don't know if it's from my friend's pc lagging causing the rest of us to lag too (to sync) or if it really is from my pc, but we got beaten repeatedly on 3 AI on all hard. (first 6 player map in list).

The funniest part was seeing my medivacs healing my friend's ultralisks. Zerg and Terran living in harmony!
