You're just incredibly easy and fun to pester and annoy. If you were a brick, it would be much more boring to bother you.
Thank the burning steppes of Hell you aren't a brick though.

Using Zerg, use Zerglings with burrow as physical hold-traps to allow Hydralisks to attack with impunity for several sconds by placing them in a narrow chokepoint in such a way that the chokepoint looks like a black caterpillar or dense grid or similar. When enemies approach, unburrow your Zerglings to screw up everything's pathing and unleash Hell with your Hydralisks.
Here is an example in which the player appears to have actually set the trap in the open. Appears to be super effective.
Alright, this is a strategy that I developed by myself, it is completely unique and has been heard of by little.
Introducing a never seen strategy, named "FATE."
Pro Strat
First off, gather as much minerals as possible and create the closest thing to a hexagram of some sort.
Next, repeat the following lines: "I announce. Thy body shall be under my command, my fate shall be determined by thy sword. Follow the Call of the Holy Grail. If thou wouldst obey this mind and this reaon, then answer my call."
After that flames should start to erupt, and repeat the next incantation: "Make an oath here. I am the one who shall become the virtue of all afterworld I am the one who shall lay out the evil of all afterworld. Thou art seven Heavens clad in the Three Great Words. Emerge from the ring of control, guardian of balance."
Our summon should appear right above it.
I manged to summon a powerful servant this time:
Hopefully the enemy will think twice before fighting me:
The problem with this build is that the summoning circle will take you a while to make. Also remember that it also has to be perfect, along with the incantation. Either of these wrong and you would have wasted so many minerals and time on this. Its a high risk high reward build, so try your best not to mess up or let enemy scout or circle. Remember they can counter a servant with their own as well.
Hopefully this helps alot in your matchups, it works for Terran and Zerg too.
You used UMS for that, AND you stacked, proving it doesn't work... EDIT: Still, I must say you put more effort into your troll than the others... beside Lanthanide.

Lan's was different because there was a possibility that it COULD work, which made it more successful

Psh, my infested duran troll was better.
My burrow-troll was better too, but in a different way.
Honestly, it only really works against the AIs and on Fastest. -_-
In no real game would it ever do you any good. Your units will just end up eating hits before they can unburrow completely and start attacking. Especially Hydralisks, who actually have a waitrand opcode in their iscript that can go past 1 second, IIRC. Its failure is derived from build timings and good players.
Actual Strategy: Proxy Hatchery (numbers are supply counts to build buildings) 12pool 11gas 10hatch(in opponent's main/ anywhere else that is close to the enemy base but can not be seen by enemy buildings and passing units) After this is accomplished spam lings while putting 2 drones to mine gas and upgrading zergling speed. Then use the hatchery to summon lings and drones to make sunkens in the enemy base. Highly effective(OP vs 1 base toss) versus protoss and mediocre against zerg. Requires high skill level against terran. Replays attached. Encipher game won by myself other games by Kau@Teamliquid.net
edit: @Lanthanide. Hey, at least I gave a cheese strategy. edit2: @ HeWhoShallNotBeNamed. I completely disagree with your name so no.
TERRAN Battlecruiser Spam As Terran, build two StarPorts and create 12 BCs. Research all BC upgrades. Continue repeatedly making BCs but only group 12. When attacking a base Yamato all the anti-air and high Templars and ATTACK! Use the remaining Battlecruisers to replace the dead ones.

Was this serious?
If so, it's...flawed I can point out why if you so desire.
Red classic.
"In short, their absurdities are so extreme that it is painful even to quote them."
You should never rely on comp stomp "strategies" (assuming that concept actually exists) for actual melee games against people. If you tried to do that against a person, you'd be screwed.
