I also just won a ranked ladder game with this. So, I'm now 2-5 with this build. I'm truly speechless. | ||

I use this build when my opponent tries to race switch me at the last minute hoping I won't see. I go to their base, build an assimilator and then run the probes in a circle, mining their minerals, then going into geyser to recyle to gas, then back to the mineral, rinse and repeat.

and you are actually proud of that?? it's not a strat, it's praying that your enemy is an absolute retard, and decides to leave probably thinking due to lack of experience that you proxy gated him. wtf are you doing. seriously so tilted at this, it's unbelievable. edit: this has to be an alt used for trolling. i refuse to believe you are an actual person. | ||

Seriously, I do not understand how you won that game, you stole his gas, had no probs mining and you kept stealing his gas and his minerals. You could've died to one probe killing your nexus. Honestly, I have noooo clue how anyone could ever think of this strat, I agree with Etherone. | ||

I merely find it amusing that 2 out of 5 times I have done this, the people have left the game, "giving" me the win. Most people simply laugh when they see what I'm doing and of course as soon as they kill my probes I leave the game. I can't understand why someone who is switching races at the last second to trick someone into starting off wrong in order to get easy wins, would leave the game when five probes are just mining in their bases not attacking anything, just mining from their minerals. | ||

I'm not sure this is something you would want to be bragging about. Why not just actually pay attention to the race they are switching to and change BO's accordingly? Wouldn't that be more of an accomplishment then wasting your own apm and ragequitting when your probe dies? Just a thought though. | ||

There is no laughing, gloating, or braggin going on, and definitely no raging here, merely confusion. It was a shitty OP, whatever. Essentially I was baffled why someone who is trying to get wins by race switching (you can't tell me that someone who makes a TvP game title and switches to Zerg at the last second isn't trying to just get free points), would leave the game. They are getting their free win, and getting it even faster than in a normal game when they kill the protoss that has just 12 nex'd/1 gate core with their firsr six or eight lings. I thought it was an amusing way to present my confusion, but it was poorly worded and didn't come across that way, like I said, shitty OP. Nothing more to add here so we can just move on. | ||

Unless of course, you build a CC somewhere... hmm.... | ||
