The DORK Club [Warcraft 3 Replays]

Don't expect to find any shining examples of game winning strategy here. The Warcraft 3 Replays provided by The DORK Club are more entertaining than educational. Unfortunately, you do need to have Warcraft 3 in order to view them, but with Blizzard's latest classic available on both the PC and MAC, you should have no excuse.

3/29 - Tower Strat 2007 [download]
Submitted by XxXazn_grrlXxX
The time table of events:

30 minutes - Having destroyed Ornithopter's island o' towers in its infancy, and now facing XxXazn_grrlXxX's fully prepared fortress, floyd21 and xtra37 become frustrated.
45 minutes - Flody21 and xtra37 remain in upkeep, build unnecessary copies of the same structures, and attempt a doomed necromancer assault.
1 hour - Our opponents begin to employ invisibility and invulnerability potion-fueled hero charges. Several thousand gold later, our shop is destroyed.
1 hour 30 minutes - We nearly convince our opponents to settle the match in a DotA game.
2 hours - Ornithopter informs our opponents as to how they could defeat us. They adopt our suggestions.
2 hours 30 minutes - We lose. Barely.

3/29 - LOL FFA [download]
Submitted by XxXazn_grrlXxX
Player 1 (hahndog), Player 2 (escargo), and Player 3 (XxXazn_grrlXxX) stack the odds in their favor, joining the same ranked FFA match. Player 4 is quickly defeated and the remaining three players half-heartedly fight it out and learn that an acolyte can defeat a spirit walker.

3/29 - Fast Warden Win [download]
Submitted by XxXazn_grrlXxX
It's hard to win using the warden strat these days. Unless your opponents leave six seconds into the game.

3/29 - Lost Temple - Land of Dreams [download]
Submitted by XxXazn_grrlXxX
Actually, it's not that hard to win using the warden strat. As long as you're not rushed. And your opponents don't expand. And you don't have to fight an army of mechanical units. Still lots of fun, though.

3/29 - Piyonugget vs. Wedge55 [download]
Submitted by XxXazn_grrlXxX
You've heard stories of the epic two hour game in which Piyonugget and Wedge55 used the warden strat against one another. Well, I'm here to tell you that the stories are true. For two hours, two wardens blinked through mazes of moonwells locked in unending conflict. Then we got bored and quit, but at least we left you a secret message at the end.

Version 1.17 Replays [1 Total]

10/2 - 3 on 1 Blademaster [download]
Submitted by JessiahBlanche
JessiahBlanche, as LEEHAX-JPD, quickly loses both allies to a trio of firelords. However, having long since perfected the use of a single hero, LEEHAX-JPD slowly but surely turns the game around, using wind riders and tauren for defense while his blademaster takes to the offense, slowly widdling down the opposition by continually murdering their heroes and preventing them from expanding.

Version 1.16 Replays [39 Total]

8/14 - Total Pwnage [download]
Submitted by End_My_TORMENT
End_My_TORMENT and Wheres_The_Pub prove that wardens + lots of moonwells + lots of air units is a guaranteed recipe for victory.

8/2 - Savior [download]
Submitted by End_My_TORMENT
End_My_TORMENT teaches both his teammates and his opponents the glory of the lord as he uses the Christian Strat to bring victory and honor to God. Watch this replay so that you too may see the light.

8/2 - Surivzors [download]
Submitted by Nathan
SatHan desperately holds on while fighting out of a makeshift base in the corner of the map in this Reign of Chaos replay.

8/1 - Adaptation [download]
Submitted by Xenopax
This two hour FFA match has it all. Xenopax uses the Warden Strat, adapting to a difficult situation by adding chimeras, glaive throwers, and a sea witch to the mix, while Player 2 surrounds his base in a maze of towers while continually attacking with mortar teams and steam tanks. Oh, and there's a rather uninteresting orc and human player too.

8/1 - Warden Paradise [download]
Submitted by Xenopax
Poor ThunderSpun plays right into Xenopax's Warden Strat, attacking with lots of ghouls, watching them all die, then attacking with lots of ghouls again. It's all part of ThunderSpun's plan though, because "[he's] good...rlly" and the Warden Strat is "not a good strat...some people think it is...but its not." His plan also involves losing. Badly.

7/31 - The Three (Panda) Samurai [download]
Submitted by BOWstring_not_G
Their opponents are so taken aback by their ability to wield only three brewmasters and still come out victorious, they offer them a spot in their very own clan. It's almost touching. A celebration of pronouns.

7/31 - 4v4 Hero Win [download]
Submitted by BOWstring_not_G
One blademaster + one tinker + one sea witch + one tauren chieftain = pwned.

7/31 - Blademaster Trio [download]
Submitted by BOWstring_not_G
Who says you need moonwells for a hero only strategy? Apparently, lots and lots of towers work too, assuming you and your allies know how to handle your blademasters with the same degree of skill BOWstring_not_G and company display here.

7/30 - Stormguarde Bunker [download]
Submitted by LOLLOLLLOLLOLZ
By using only a Blademaster and lots and lots of defensive towers, LOLLOLLLOLLOLZ takes control of nearly every gold mine on the map, constantly harasses his opponents, and leads his team to victory. Never underestimate the power of a blademaster.

7/30 - The Keeper of the Grove Strategy [download]
Submitted by LOLLOLLLOLLOLZ
Finally utilizing The Frozen Throne, LOLLOLLLOLLOLZ modifies the Warden Strat to take advantage of the keeper of the grove (and to a lesser extent, the sea witch) and teaches a new undead player how to play the game.

7/30 - Setting Up Shop [download]
Submitted by ColdFire8990
Gholbine wants to be a dancer. The Moose God rears his ugly head. I'm expanding my corporation. It's ok, babe. I'm making pie. Kevin.

7/28 - Warden 3v3 [download]
Submitted by Xenopax
Three Warden Straters earn an arranged 3v3 win.

7/28 - The Blademaster/Chieftian/Tinker N00b Strat [download]
Submitted by BOWstring_not_G
See title. See replay below. Use logic.

7/26 - The Blademaster/Lich/Warden SEX Strat [download]
Submitted by BOWstring_not_G
The blademaster, lich, and warden are also a useful combination when supported by a maze of moonwells. Unfortunately, the maze never actually gets used in this game. Though the team eventually wins, it's largely due to their opponent's sheer sucktitude and the raw awesomeness of an unchecked blademaster. Spelling out "SEX" with ziggurats helps too.

7/25 - The Chronicles of PopcornChicken 2: For The Fans [download]
Submitted by PopcornChicken
PopcornChicken agrees to play a 4v4 arranged team match with his last opponent's clanmate. Obviously he uses demolishers and bat riders to betray him and his newfound allies and then attacks the enemy with an army of peons. Then he kills most of his own base with towers. Our PopcornChicken is the new TillerMaN, only he's much more honest about being known primarily for being an asshole.

7/25 - The Chronicles of PopcornChicken 1: A New Friend [download]
Submitted by PopcornChicken
I'd like to think that when Blizzard first birthed the night elf race, this is close to what they envisioned: small bands of soldiers (one warden in this case) raiding enemy encampments in the night, never letting up their constant hit-and-run siege. Though PopcornChicken is eventually defeated, his lovely comedic opponent leads him to a new friend.

7/25 - The Pit Lord/Tinker Strat [download]
Submitted by BOWstring_not_G
It turns out that the pit lord and goblin tinker also work as substitutions for the warden. (And to answer your question, orbs disable both cleaving attack and black arrow.)

7/25 - A Lesson Well Learned [download]
Submitted by Adam Rogers
Dear kr5z13, when someone tells you to "learn from your mistakes," they're telling you not to screw up in the exact same way five times in a row. Thank you, and have a nice day.

7/25 - Tabor and Adam's Warden Adventure [download]
Submitted by Adam Rogers
Adding themselves to some of the greatest duos of all time, smokeblunt and angel_crusher once again show us just how to kick ass. Forced to defend a single base, they keep the pressure on their opponents, continually attacking their expansion mines. Their opponents try their best to stay on top, utilizing a variety of strategies such as building air and land-based siege units, using goblin sappers, and even trying to build moonwells outside our hero's base. After two hours, however, it is all for nothing, as smokeblunt and angel_crusher finally earn their win, ending the match with an open letter to me, wedge55.

7/25 - Not Quite [download]
Submitted by angel_crusher
Angel_crusher's opponent, biggame, almost has an interesting strategy on his hands involving offensively towering in concentric circles from his start location. And building a couple mortar teams. And a steam tank. And, oh, let's get a beast master too. It turns out the Warden Strat is really good at beating complete newbies too. Who knew?

7/23 - Warden: The Anti-Rush [download]
Submitted by Adam Rogers
Faced with a fierce rush from an orc and human opponent who refuse to let up, angel_crusher and smokeblunt do the same, keeping constant pressure on their opponents. Eventually their dual warden goodness wins through as two more of the uninitiated learn the glory of the Warden Strat.

7/23 - The New Standard [download]
Submitted by Adam Rogers
A very fast, very clean example of a win earned via the Warden Strat. As seems to be the norm these days, rakeyohn creates a moonwell swastika and advertises dorkclub.com just before finishing off his opponent.

7/23 - Mountain King/Sea Witch Combo [download]
Submitted by BOWstring_not_G
Yet another variant on the Warden Stat, this time using only a mountain king and a sea witch to bring their opponents to their knees. I think it's safe to assume moonwells are going to receive some major tweaking in the next patch.

7/22 - A Day of Warcraft [download]
Submitted by Hahndog
What if PopcornChicken (Player 1) and two friends (Player 3 and Hahndog) made it into the same ladder FFA match? What if their only opponent dropped right from the start? The answer's simpler than you think, and it involves words spelled in moonwells ("ass," "hi bliz," "dorkclub"), peon prisons, a hero with five auras, and two lonely trees which refused to die. Which is then followed by fourteen hours of inactivity. But when a Warcraft 3 ladder game is just over twenty-four hours long, you can't expect to be entertained for every second. Enjoy.

7/22 - Warnithopter Win [download]
PopcornChicken and wedge55 finally get a win using the Warden/Ornithopter strategy, thanks largely to a pair of opponents who don't understand that in order to destroy something it must first be attacked.

7/22 - The Master Connection Mk II [download]
Submitted by BOWstring_not_G
Another variant on the Warden Strat, this time using a warden, a blademaster, and a naga sea witch. As always, our heroes prevail, and they make sure their opponents realize just who's winning through a series of insults in the highly entertaining chatlog.

7/22 - Dying Breed [download]
Submitted by LOLLOLLLOLLOLZ
Another Reign of Chaos replay, and it features our infamous Tower Strat to boot. It's nice to see that the strategy is still effective in RoC, as many of the new additions in The Frozen Throne (bat riders, invincibility potions) make it easily beatable. Hang in there, LOLLOLLLOLLOLZ and w00t-w00t. You're a dying breed of the best variety.

7/18 - Tower Battleground [download]
Submitted by LOLLOLLLOLLOLZ
An excellent Reign of Chaos replay (which gets posted here because if you own The Frozen Throne, chances are you own Reign of Chaos too) in which LOLLOLLLOLLOLZ uses only towers and a blademaster in this 3v3 match. Remember what catapults look like? No? WELL NOW YOU CAN!

7/16 - The Master Connection [download]
Submitted by JessiahBlanche
Quickly making a name for themselves here at dorkclub.com, JessiahBlanche and Stilgar continue to produce interesting replays as they modify the Warden Strat in this 2v2 game, using a blademaster and a beastmaster in this double BM strategy. After a lengthy two hour game in which Stilgar is forced to leave about half way through, JessiahBlanche (as MyLifeForGod) finally out-resources his opponents for the win.

7/16 - How to Beat a Warden [download]
PopcornChicken and I decide to show the world just how to beat the Warden Start, and though neither of use are playing at our best (see the replay below), you still get the point regardless. We randomly choose one of the 1v1 maps in ladder rotation. I choose random as my race and don't adapt my strategy until I actually see what PopcornChicken is up to. Change your strategy to adapt to a changing situation. Not doing so is everyone's biggest mistake, and the reason most people lose to the Warden Strat. By steadily keeping pressure on the Warden Start it eventually crumbles.

7/16 - The Suck Wars [download]
This is, by far, the worst game PopcornChicken and wedge55 have ever played. Our plan is to rush our opponents with our starting ghouls, only both of our opponents are human, armed with very lethal militia. I then completely screw up by building too many ziggurats, then canceling one and unsummoning another, and getting stuck with no hero and no army with both enemies in my base. Then we screw up a few more times, including accidentally attacking creeps and our opponents at the same time. Twice.

7/16 - Wedge55 Versus The World [download]
TKing, BSing, being an asshole, whatever you call it, it's a whole lot of fun. This replay comes full of friendly mortar team attacks, a dozen necropolises, and an angry, angry chatlog. I also get brilliance as my level one skill, which is totally an action of self-aware rebellion.

7/16 - Peon Burrow Madness [download]>
Our plan was to harvest as many resources as possible, but our opponents had other plans. Though we ultimately lose, at least our opponents hold off long enough so we can produce a fantastic chatlog. Also: lots of burrows.

7/16 - FUK [download]
The infamous FUK farm hack in action.

7/15 - The Price of Fame [download]
Submitted by PopcornChicken
Chances are WoL)FaTaLiTy, PopcornChicken's opponent, reads this site, as he not only recognizes PopcornChicken's account name, but the Warden Strat as well. Still, with all this knowledge in hand, and after two hours of play, WoL still manages to lose. Don't worry, though, I've compiled a short list of actions you should have taken in order to ensure your victory:

When you know your opponent is in a position to beat you, don't rush using only your hero. In fact, don't bother rushing at all.
Try changing your strategy to adapt to a changing situation.
Tell PopcornChicken your favorite emoticon.
See those useless items on your heroes? Sell them and use the gold to build an acolyte to either mine your unused gold mine or to unsummon a few of your unused structures. Either way, you get money.
Build some siege units.
Don't leave the instant you're in a position to win.

7/15 - Hacking For Hitler [download]
Submitted by PopcornChicken
Maybe it's PopcornChicken's mocking sense of humor or an opponent set on reporting our hero for using a "bot" that makes this Warden Strat replay so good. Or maybe it's the swastika PopcornChicken makes out of moonwells. In his opponent's base.

7/15 - Wardens of Justice [download]
Submitted by Stilgar
This is the best pseudo 3v2 Warden Strat with lots of "all" chat antics for version 1.16 of The Frozen Throne available from dorkclub.com. Honest.

7/15 - Obvious Maphack [download]
The plan: join random team games and take my own life while spaming "dorkclub.com."
The wrinkle: Predator77 reacts to my peons destroying my own town hall without actually scouting my position and then later provides grammatically incorrect running commentary such as "here he coe" and "now hes creeping" when there is no possible way he could have seen my actions. Oops.

7/07 - Loud and Clear [download]
Submitted by Stilgar
A team of three (one of which uses the Christian Strat) takes on three opponents, giving their own play-by-play and revealing every one of their actions for both teams to hear via "All" chat. And they win. There's militia and peons defending a base, there's a priestess of the moon with 1850 hit points, and there's an army of troll bat riders which succeeds at blowing itself up. Go. Watch. Enjoy.

6/29 - Warnithopter [download]
Submitted by Adam Rogers
Mr_oyster and Player 4 are buddies, and through the magic of Automated Mach Making, manage to end up in the same FFA together. Their poor opponents never stood a chance against the ornithopter/warden combination. And just before victory, mr_oyster even advertises this very site to his downed opponent. Hint: this will get your replay online.

6/27 - Guerilla (Chimera) Warfare [download]
Submitted by Adam Rogers
Faced with an opponent who doesn't know the difference between "your" and "you're," and_I_win utilizes the always entertaining Warden Strat. What follows is an exciting back-and-forth struggle as his opponent throws down some insane hit-and-run and diversionary tactics, but ultimately surrenders to and_I_win's infinite perseverance.

6/25 - Replay 100 (OMFG) [download]
Submitted by PopcornChicken
The DORK Club's 100th replay, and a worthy replay it is. The game begins innocently enough, PopcornChicken singing his battle cry, but as soon as his opponent catches wind of the large amounts of Warden and Strategy present in PopcornChicken's camp, things start to get interesting. And by interesting, I mean off-towering (do people still use that term?), ballistae en masse, and PopcornChicken's stern refusal to surrender.

6/25 - The Good Fight [download]
Submitted by PopcornChicken
Though PopcornChicken ultimately loses, he puts up one helluva fight, killing 116 units and 5 heroes over the course of a single hour. However, when his only gold mine explodes, and he is unable to acquire another, the game quickly changes from one of impending victory to one of delayed defeat.

6/25 - Estrategia del Guarda [download]
Submitted by PopcornChicken
A tried and true, by the books, fast and dirty, textbook (book-book) Warden Start by our own PopcornChicken. A great introduction for the uninitiated.

6/14 - Christian Strat [download]
Magic units are sinful. Therefore, the only way for a true Christian to enjoy Warcraft 3 is through the highly innovative, and rarely effective, Christian Strategy, which involves using the powers of a paladin, priests, and your faith in our lord to destroy your infidel opponents.

6/14 - Fish-Hearted Rapist of Close Relatives [download]
Vector_black takes control of wedge55 and allies himself with Piyonugget as they face a team of Warden Strating enemies. Watch as Piyonugget tries his best to salvage the game as vector_black (still as wedge55) sends an endless stream of fat, exp-rich footmen into the opponents' arms. Then watch as they lose. The chat log alone is worth the price of admission. Which, in this case, is nothing.

6/10 - Orni-Warden 0-2: Delay of Game... Again [download]
With wedge55 and PopcornChicken's heroes killed, their means of producing reinforcements destroyed, and nothing but an army of the single weakest offensive unit in the game, this dynamic duo continues to transform their personal failure into other people's annoyance. Keep on rocking, brothers. Keep on rocking.

6/10 - Orni-Warden 0: Delay of Game [download]
Considering the success found with the Warden Strategy and the Ornithopter strategy, we've decided to combine the two. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. At all. But at least we have turned delaying an impossible situation into an art form. And people still say you can't hide the farm in The Frozen Throne.

6/10 - The Kindest Generation [download]
Not the most entertaining of replays, but it does answer the age old question, "What happens if, when using the Warden Strategy, your opponent refuses to attack you?" The answer is simpler than you might think.

6/08 - Team Warden DX Pt. 2 [download]
Also tied for Best Dorkclub.com 1.15 Replay, this replay embodies everything inherently fun about the warden strategy, as it transformers Warcraft 3 from a game of strategy to a balls-out action title. And it's a freakout hell ride of entertainment. Highlight of the game: a single warden taking on two armies and surviving, but only truly triumphing with a little help from her allies. There's a moral in there somewhere.

6/08 - Team Warden DX Pt. 1 [download]
We take it to the next level in this flawed 3v3 warden only game. We lose, but we learn some valuable lessons, such as how not to suck. There's a little farm hiding action thrown in there for all the kids.

6/08 - How to Beat a Team of Wardens DX [download]
Rush.

6/08 - How to Beat a Team of Wardens [download]
Attack quickly, and don't let up until your opponents are dead.

6/08 - Team Warden Pt. 2 [download]
Tied for Best Dorkclub.com 1.15 Replay, this one has it all: one hero armies, ironic combat, idiocy-filled chat logs, post-modernism, homosexuality, and PopcornChicken and wedge55 acting like jerks to people who deserve it. Pork chops for everyone.

6/08 - Team Warden Pt. 1 [download]
Wedge55 and Piyonugget put their skills(z0rz) to the test, in their first ever 2v2 warden only bonanza. Because their opponents spend so much of the game creeping, they are able to do the same, getting their wardens to level five before they even see the enemy's army. Stuff happens. Some LAN time runs out. Our good 'ol boys come out the winners.

6/08 - Wardens, Towers, and Skill-less Opponents [download]
Submitted by Piyonugget
No, his warden isn't defeating your entire army by all herself. It's Piyonugget's army of invisible units. Built from invisible buildings.

6/08 - How Not to Kill a Warden [download]
Submitted by Piyonugget
Though his enemy starts off on the right foot by trapping Piyonugget's warden in his base and slowly luring her out to face his army, he ultimately fails when he decides a single warden is not a match for an entire army. To add stupidity to failure, he is then completely unable to destroy Piyonugget's alter. Then he does it all again. Oops.

6/08 - The Warden Strategy [download]
Submitted by Piyonugget
Thanks to her unique assortment of skills, it's entirely possible to beat a skilled opponent using only a warden, a few ancients of wonder, and lots and lots of moonwells, as Piyonugget so aptly demonstrates here. Because the warden can teleport in and out of danger with blink, deal large amounts of damage to surrounding foes with fan of knives, take down high level creeps and heroes with shadowstrike, and has an instant army in her ultimate, she makes for a formidable one woman fighting force. The quarter of a hundred moonwells help too.

6/08 - Newb Air [download]
A 4v4 Arranged Team match gets slightly more interesting than usual when wedge55 demonstrates how not to build "newbir." Hint: it involves lots of flying machines.

6/08 - Ornithopter FFA [download]
PopcornChicken's ornithopter strategy also works well in post-patch FFA games, though this replay quickly proves that the wall of towers isn't just a convenience, but a necessity.

6/08 - Ornithopter [download]
Submitted by PopcornChicken
In the game of Magic: The Gathering, an ornithopter is a flying 0/2 artifact creature which costs zero mana to cast. It lives only to die. In Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne, the flying machines serves the same primary purpose. They are cheap, take up a single food, have less hit points than a peasant, and require a tier 3 upgrade before they can even attack ground units. Yet, if you build enough of them you can still win, as the lovely PopcornChicken (disguised here as the great Ornithopter himself) so skillfully proves.

This tournament game features hot Undead on Undead action, complete with a single Crypt Lord using 3 Wands of Illusion (for a total of 9 charges) on itself. What would you do if attacked by ten heroes?

7/30 - No Matter What [download]
Before the game even started, we knew this replay would make it online, no matter what. Watch in amazement as our opponents do nothing, sitting in their base for fifteen minutes as we kill nearly ever creep camp on the map before getting bored and walking through our opponents' base like it was something which was easily walkthrough-able. Chat log!

7/30 - Good (Tourney) Game [download]
SweetCupinCakes and wedge55 take it to the hole (basketball reference) in this action-packed tournament game from the Gnoll Wood 2v2 Tournament. Both of us suffer heavy losses, as we desperately fight to stay alive against our enemies' relentless assault. In the end, our perseverance wins through, earning us a much deserved win.

7/30 - Semen Craziness Pt. 3 [download]
Team Semen takes on Team Thinks They're Clever But They're Not with incredible results. After SemenChin sacrifices several peasants to creeps, and following SemenFace's defeat and SemenMouth's disconnection, the remaining forces of Team Semen dig in deep for the grandest delay of game ever.

7/30 - Semen Craziness Pt. 2 [download]
GFrazier taught us this strat. It is good but hard.

7/30 - Semen Craziness Pt. 1 [download]
SemenChin (wedge55), SemenMouth (Piyonugget), and SemenFace (PopcornChicken) make up Team Semen, the least coordinated team on all of Battle.net! One of us tries to hero rush, one of us tries to tower rush, and one of us just attacks with lots and lots of peons. We almost win! (We don't.)

Generally speaking, the purpose of melee units in a team game is to act as a "meat shield," absorbing damage so as the ranged units, heroes, and casters behind their ranks can dish out the real sauce and, if time allows, lay their smack down. In this entertaining replay, X-Treme proves that Peons serve this role just as well as Grunts or Knights ever could.

Submitted by Jerry Bachmann
Xenopax, BigSlacks, and TheGnome use Orc Watch Towers to quickly rush their opponents on Stormguarde, using Human Farms to create a wall between their target's base and the outside world, effectively preventing the remainder of his team from coming to his aid. With one opponent defeated, the team quickly makes with the whoop ass, earning a much deserved win.

6/28 - The Immortal Paladin [download]

Having convinced his opponents that allowing him to live would be advantageous to all parties involved, Piyonugget spends the remainder of the game annoying his enemies with a Divine Shielded Paladin.

6/28 - Human Tag Team [download]
Submitted by Piyonugget
Some people seem to have trouble understanding the concept of "free for all." Case in point: two Human players who thought launching coordinated strikes against Piyonugget, Warcraft 3 champion of uh... something, utilizing heroes bloated with experience after defeating his only Orc opponent, would be a good idea. It wasn't, as he overcomes a constant Steam Tank barrage for the win.

6/28 - Hide And Win [download]
Submitted by ImBlind_NotDeaf
I suck at it, Farm_Power[FH] first invented it, and ImBlind_NotDeaf proves that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Bow your heads before the return of the Hide An Ancient strategy! The fact that his Undead opponent is completely without skill and is effectively defeated by the map's creeps, only make this replay more amusing.

6/4 - In The Land of The Blind... Pt. 2 [download]
Still employing my specially designed Glasses O' Blindness™, I headed onto Battle.net. I informed my ally of my condition. He left. I asked the enemy to go easy on me. They didn't. It was hot. I lost. Now you have no reason to actually download the replay. You're welcome.

6/4 - In The Land of The Blind... Pt. 1 [download]
After reading this article over at Starcraft Legacy about a pair of Korean Starcraft players who are not only blind, but are actually pretty good, I decided to step into their eyes and play Warcraft 3 sans vision. I modified a pair of safety goggles to completely impair my vision and got to work. I started small, against a single computer set to "easy," but was quickly defeated nonetheless. However, this was only the beginning of things to come...

6/4 - Good Game [download]
In all honesty, this is probably the best Warcraft 3 match I have ever played. Both sides decimate their opponents bases, leaving each battling one another with a rag-tag team of half-dead heroes and units while desperately trying to "hide the farm" and stay alive.

6/4 - Hide and Found [download]
I attempt to copy Farm_Power[FH]'s brilliant Ancient hiding strategy. I fail. My opponent toys with me for thirty minutes. I suck.

Meanwhile, F.UCK-U builds ten peons, destroys his Great Hall, hides a Burrow, and then proceeds to backstab his opponents, killing GHOSTOFOBLIVION's Keeper of the Grove in the process. Meanwhile, on the other side of the tracks, LoWnaGe is busy spelling out "F.U." and drawing smiley faces with Wisps. Unfortunately his team mate CrzyFag doesn't seem to take to his idea and proceeds to kill him. Later in the game he then kills his other team mate Michael2232. I just... Insanity.

withmeyouNOTwin does more than submit these excellent replays, he also studies them, fully digesting each and every delicious morsel of information they offer. Case in point: withmeyouNOTwin masterfully uses the questionable creep placement on Ogre Mount to quickly and effortlessly defeat his opponent. Remember kids, it's only an exploit if you're on the receiving end.

There's a reason Blizzard has made numerous changes to the role creeps play to The Frozen Throne. Chief among them is the fact that you can spend the entire gaming killing creeps, earning experience, and placing four claws of attack on your level 8 Mountain King without ever seeing the opponent.

Remember when you used to play Starcraft? It was fun. Then Brood War came out and completely changed the way you played the game.

When playing Warcraft 3, detectors are all but useless... until your opponent sends a dozen invisible Dwarven Mortar Teams into your base.

Excellence is not a term to be taken lightly, but this replay is exactly that - excellent. This epic struggle between the all Night Elf team, Whisp, and their opponents, a mish-mash of races, team BaT, is a must download. The game starts with an all-out Ancient of War rush from the Whisp team and, after team BaT looses one of its four members, the game evolves into a viscous back-and-forth air battle. A must watch.

Strangest. Game. Ever. The game begins as withmeyouNOTwin has the nerve to build a town hall within his ally's base and then militia rush his teammate. Meanwhile, this very teammate is busy constructing an army of ancients outside their opponent's base. After a quick change of withmeyouNOTwin's tactics (he stops killing his ally), they defeat their enemies using only ancients of war and an archmage. Incredible.

During a 3v3 match, Dunno_THEONE has his base completely surrounded by Orc towers. Despite their best efforts, his team can do little against them and it isn't long before he is utterly defeated. Fueled by the loss of their comrade, his allies continue to struggle in a 2v3 match up, but come up ahead in the end thanks to the abundance of creeps their opponents did not bother killing. Plus, you get to see a player with the handle "BURNtheFAGGOTS" get beaten. Bad. If that's not enough incentive for you, I don't know what is.

IrishFolkDancer (Wedge55) and Monkeybowels (PopcornChicken) confirm their worst fears by witnessing first hand the power of the Human Town Hall.

Leadpipe (as SMOKINGMONKEY) and Wedge55 (as IrishFolkDancer) try their best to produce a replay worth posting. What we get is this. While we try to use a "zany strat," mass Frost Wyrms and Steam Tanks seems to be the best we got. Luckily, our opponents actually make it an interesting game by hiding over a dozen farms across the map. Despite the fact that it took us longer to find the farms than to destroy our opponent's bases, they still called us hackers. Because, you know... Furblogs...

This game clearly exemplifies the division of labor which should be used in team games. The L team's use of Druids of The Talon, Shamen, and Ghouls, allows them to completely wipe out their enemies Huntresses and Wyverns. This game also demonstrates why you should change your strategy mid-game if your opponent has successfully countered it, rather than trying to strong arm your way to victory.

The game starts out as an average team game with undead squared off against humans, but soon becomes anything but. After over an hour of rigorous back and forth air combat, the undead team, proudly displaying the name Zomb, is exiled to a single island. With both teams out of gold, the humans storm the island and, after a long and gruesome battle, the undead emerge victorious. With no remaining units, the Zomb team's two heroes and single meat wagon make short work of the remaining human structures.

It does help that StoneSour.K01 decided to go AFK for a few crucial minutes, but this is Piyonugget at the top of his game. His opponents were dead before the match even started.

While nether player displays any remarkable skills, there's enough innovative strategy to warrant watching this replay.

However, later in the game, when purple finally leaves, I get a brand new army with which to piss people off. Don't think of it as wrong, think of it as getting revenge against all the idiots who don't know how to play the game and have cost me countless (21) wins.
