If you hate D so much, cheese your way out (Ling all-in/4pool) and become D+ for once.

Fanatacist wins this thread tbh.


and gets the award


on a serious note: long long time ago i watched nal_crayons replay where he blocked that choke with 2 drones until he had lings running. Thats what you can do if youre brave enough to 12 hatch. Or atleast fight the scv in choke and switch up drones when they low on health, this will require some care and he can block if you mess up
Can someone ban this guy please? FA?

LOL yes play Halo cause you suck at starcraft. Learn to play a 9 pool opening on maps where cannon rushing is common. That build has been a staple since tau's release, don't complain about it now / say zerg cant cheese. Lol.

TL:DR; east noobie try's out iccup and gets raped by people 2-3 ranks above him. Cry's a river about how zerg doesn't have any cheeses when they have the gayest cheeses of all time.
No no no no its not mine!

Dont hate iccup for your incompetence of not understanding basic stuff. And for the record tau cross is Z>>>>>P i know this because i play zvp pvz

Most maps (like HBR) you can forge nex before cannon against overpool.


Easy to stop send 9 drone to check if he has probe and building pylon with drone and block place for forge if he is send 1-2 more drones = making toss mad and discing . Had exatcly game like this last season


You cannot possibly expect people to 9 drone scout ZvP on 2 player maps.
Also PLEASE use something called grammar, your post was nearly unreadable.

Honestly I dont get all the OP bashing either, yeah going 12 hatch on tau cross in ZvP isnt smart, yeah a better player would have defended better, yeah it's a bit whiny, but I bet at least 70% of all the bashing people nerdrage themselves when they get cheesed.

bye bye fanatacist, I used to like his posts but
I'm glad he got temp banned, he's just been a fucking dick lately


I think my english is good enough... and you clearly didnt understand my point for 9 drone is not meant for scouting him but just checking your natural really early just for the reason of forge block.

on a map like heartbreak as protoss you make forge then nexus vs overpool and forge then cannon vs 9pool or earlier
you can't make nexus then forge because your scouting probe does not arrive in his base early enough to know whether hes pooling before lord or after.

i think your not intimidating your opponents enough

i let them know within the first 2 minutes that I cannot be cheesed. Haven't been cheesed yet this season.

as a sidenote: Play othello,medusa, etc. lol. those are the zerg maps this MOTW anyway. why are you starting yourself with a disadvantage?

you're right that was pretty stupid on my part but it was for some part also because no the english isn't that great in that post.

Here's how I guess you meant that post:

Easy to stop, send your 9th drone to check if he has a probe building a pylon. Try to block the place for the forge, if he has still managed to start building it send 1-2 more drones

so much easier to read.
If your english just isnt too amazing then I'm sorry,no need to bash you for that, but to me it looked like you could have easily made it much easier to read if you just added some words and had used punctuation.
OK enough bitching.

erm tau cross is way better for zerg than either of those.. they're both fine for zvp (although tau is even more fine) but they're pretty crappy for zvt, whereas tau is one of the few genuine z > t maps.

i actually find Z=T on tau... and im a terran player, i find that most zergs dont know how to abuse it. Neither do I.

try telling that to this guy. I was discussing it on the premise that he didnt want to get cheesed. very hard to get cheesed on othello or medusa.

tau is good for zerg vs terran because it's so incredibly open. on most maps there are key areas where terran can both be set up in a good position where it's hard to flank, and where they are also threatening zerg and forcing zerg to engage. tau cross has no such area. in addition it's fairly easy for zerg to take third gas, and big drops are really devastating (in particular if you are like, top left vs top right, top right vs bottom or bottom vs top left. )

wow misrah you should change to protoss cause thats the only race that fits your brain power. are you kidding me? pool first isnt an economic hit if the terran proxi raxs.. and it stops his cheese. what you are saying could be related to someone saying "why does terran always make mines and turrets my dt rush isnt working! everyone plays so defencive"

call the fucking wambulance yo!

and you my friend- just pissed me the fuck off. I have an idea- why don't you and your 40iq comments stay the fuck out of my blog ok? nice ad hominimz. anytime you want you little shit- i will BO3 your pitiful ass.

Holy fuck your English and general overall post structure is inept to the point of incompetence. I cannot believe that i just wasted time reading this puke onto paper you somehow call a post.



you know what TL it's funny- that when i come ranting into my blog after a really shitty day on cup, i get fucking stoned like that whore in the bible. except this time, there is no Jesus to save my herpes ridden ass. Why is with all of the hate? (i don't even want to begin cool1st over here.) For christ sakes it's one thing to get told your an idiot by sixghost- whom i respect, but seriously? everyone needs to tell me the same thing time and time again?

This is ridiculous to the point of insanity, that all of the TL community would get so worked up over me ranting about having a rough night of icup. All of you need to get off of your fucking high horse, and once and awhile- not take SC as SUPER FUCKING SRS BIZZZZ. IT'S A FUCKING GAME for christ sake.
