Hey everyone. I played this game the other day and I thought some of you may enjoy it. It was a interesting game where both of us started with some overused builds. We then transitioned straight into losing our bases, with an interesting outcome of where we ended up. Enjoy!

Oh, and about the profanity in the replay name, I hope you get the reference. :p

funny, these guys make it sound much worse then i believed you have played. when i watched the replay i thought it was rather good but with all those negative comments from the commentators it sounds like the worst game ever.

I have to agree with you Accname. Although there were several points in the game where I would've prioritized my attacks differently, I still think you did a great job.

One thing you definitely did better than I would have is keeping calm. That is one of the greatest counters to cheese and you did a great job at it(I am sure you were really scared while playing(I know I am when I'm getting cheesed) but you didn't let it affect your play style that much)

Nice job Whitesock.

Those commentators are pretty hilarious. I love the way they talked shit to Dub. :p He deserved it for the cheese.

Well keep in mind they were doing a trollcast. The fact that they said so little about me tells me they had trouble with finding much to really get me on. I can see at the end I was playing very cautious, but when you have a lead there's no reason to jump to the end. :p

Haha. Well actually when I left the drone at his natural I was going to block his expo (since most toss fast expo on that map due to the small ramp and easy to guard natural). When I saw the cannons I decided to "proxy hatch" him back cause I knew he wouldn't expect a backdoor hit from there so early. :D

Depends on cheese- 2 gate/6 pool -> just do the right BO to counter it.
Cannon rush however, FUCKING PANIC AS FUCKING HELL.

i am curious why the cannon rush ended that fast. the waygate was completely unused, and only 2 cannons were built. wasnt that a total waste of money? i mean in a pro game no zerg would have been stopped by that i guess.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
