Some of the obvious units like marines, zerglings, will be naturally easy to do (6pool, bunker rush). I'm looking forward to the harder ones like mass ghosts, mass mutalisks(not as easy as u think! How to do without any lings!) etc

I'll definitely be attempting these monounit challenges myself, but I notice some interesting ideas being thrown up as well. I wonder if people would be interested in a 'Challenge Thread' where a challenge is set (e.g. Win a game with nonstop rallies) and basically first person to do it wins, and he thinks of a new challenge.

@infeza added a defensive structure clause into OP let me know if it's ok

did the carriers only challenge before. +3 carriers with a billion cannons defending 3rd + nat in shakuras while massing carriers off 3-4 stargates. I made proly 2 zealots to plug holes but yeah T1 units are allowed

aw sick! haha man i can't wait to start on these.

Anyway just two challenges that I've done so far, starting with the easy ones

Can you win with just Marines only?
- No upgrades
- No bunkers
- Diamond League opponent
(This game was pretty epic, gotta watch! It's a TvP, and... it was really really close (check out my clutch MULE repair on the CC when it floats near my gold)
Replay here

Can you win with just Zerglings only?
- Platinum opponent
(This game isn't the best, my opponent was lagging or something and his build was weird. I'll try to get one vs Diamond league player or at least with a actual drawn out game)
Replay here

I assume that would need a Bunker? And probably too scoutable ? -shrugs-. It was a fun game though, and it was done prior to thinking of this challenge, was actually trying out all-ins for fun that night LOL.

Challenge: Ninja Spy Infiltrators.

Successfully get 20 changelings into your enemies forces without being detected in a ladder game. All 20 changelings must be alive at the same time. You don't have to drop them at the same time though. Just have to successfully assimilate them into your opponents army without being detected/killed etc.

crAzerk · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 12:55 PM

@cyanide to clarify - ALL 20 changelings have to be touching their army? Doesn't seem very do-able. If its just 'in his base' or as a BM kinda thing (like MULE drop) would be more possible

Cyanide · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 12:56 PM

haha! yes! must be in the army! okay, make it 10 or 5 then, seems more doable that way. 20 does seem a bit difficult for diamond level.

**|Erasmus|** · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 1:07 PM

clearly you make 20 changelings hold position on his ramp while you drop in his main...

crAzerk · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 1:16 PM

@Eramus naw, that wouldn't count, changelings have to be in his army!

@cyanide ok! Challenge accepted! I shall do the 5 changeling one

crAzerk, try the 20 Changeling but you still win if you get 5.

**|Erasmus|** · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 1:17 PM

so move them with his army, then hold position on his ramp to block half his units :P

nard · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 1:17 PM

u missed out banshees and that one is pretty easy to do imo

Cyanide · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 1:17 PM

@crazerk, if it's too easy, up the ante until it becomes barely doable! challenge the boundaries mate!

darkphoenix22 · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 1:18 PM

LOL, go for it mate xD

This has got to be the sickest idea I have ever heard of

crAzerk · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 2:49 PM

@nard - thanks! Added banshees into the list. Indeed banshees are easy.. But doable without marines? I wonder.. Hmm.

I feel like attempting both the changeling ramp block as well as 5-10 changelings in army one. Let's see if I am successful

**inFeZa** · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 3:04 PM

Play Terran
Make Banshees
????
GRANDMASTER!

darkphoenix22 · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 3:05 PM

yeah, sounds about right....maybe a handful of marines too

Zealo · Tue, 15th-Nov-2011, 4:27 PM
