So I'm going to start ICCUPing again (D level) after a long break... but I hate economy play. So I'm just going to one-base every game. I'm a protoss player but I offrace TvP. Here is the plan:

vZ:
gas forge turbo +1 into two gate slow zealots followed up with either proxy elevator or three gate citadel timing break before lair tech

v Terran:
two gate power goon into zealot bombs

v Protoss:
two shop tanks into scv-rine-tank push with rally upgraded vultures (joyo push)

There are various intricacies and various reasons for this plain to fail, but as far as I'm concerned none of these are *that* cheesy (two fact was standard; two gate goon is standard; turbo +1 very much not standard but you can see it coming a mile away so if you get demolished it's your fault like that C- guy who was thought "wtf this build clearly this D kid has no idea what he's doing" "oh right i should have added sunkens"). It should only beat people who try to do dumb things like not add sunkens, expand on three dragoons without scouting expo, or 14cc.

will tell you how it goes in this thread

oh? in D rank, 9 pool for 3 hours 4-7PM EST
It never fails...
DO NOT DO IT PAST 10. KOREANS WILL RAID

if they are D- 600 or less points, as protoss, proxy your base in their main. theyll never see it coming

terran... i cant help you there

You aren't going to get very good doing that. However, you will probably get to D+/C- and hit a brick wall, if you're satisfied with that.

I like jsut going mass sair + zealot in PvZ, nothing like killing their supply while sending endless waves of zeals into them, of course it gets raped by lurkers, but if I see lurkers I just swicth over to goon heavy.
Can you ever argue in favor of something without first proving it?

go 2 gate into tech or 1 gate goon reaver PvZ is much better than that and very funny (you will get masslinged a lot though)

PvT:
Start like 1 gate obs (he will scout 1 gate, maaybe 1 gate robo, but other than that he'll have nothing), cut probes after robo and add 2 gate, make sure you build 1 zeal before your round of 3 zeal (so you have 4, duh), build obs after shuttle and go. I often delay a bit for the obs so I can get ideal zealbomb position with mines and such.
This would probably be more viable than a two gate -> zealbomb variation because it conceals your aggression a bit better because they scout one gate and a spinning core, and maybe even long enough to see that you don't put down a robo bay.

As Zerg, my fav cheese to do against dirty FE protoss is all in lings. You move in with all ur lings just as corsair scouts it. BAM... a few C- went down to me.

You should change PvZ to goon/reaver. Reavers are much more fun to use than, erm... slow lots

zerg reports -

god zerg simcities are annoying esp. when they have many many drone

i vote we only play on chokeless rampless maps in future

i can go into the base kill some drones and snipe the spire but i keep getting pushed out by lings and sunkens O.o this shouldn't happen

no elevators because opponents keep massing hydraling for some reason

also i lost to somebody who did mass hydraling into lurker doom drop (no detection wut); i countered at his main with expensive units but didn't have any detection so i left after busting five sunkens and the nat; i turtled up in my third with mass slow reavers/archon/dark archon; killed tons of lurkers and zerglings and ultras in slow push but then i mined out

also i must perfect the turbo +1 build i keep missing timings

terran reports -

blargh one fact siege expand is too safe for zealot bomb play; i can kill all tanks but then dragoons get pushed out by scv+new tank; also i can't play on more than two bases as protoss it is too hard

protoss reports -

only two game i got backstabbed so my tanks were in front instead of in back and it died v. fast

the other game i accidentally walled myself in with a depot on heartbreak

it's okay we'll start winning games soon

just you watch
