Currently 5-3, and only at D. Might have some difficulties getting anywhere above C-, unless you suddenly attain nirvana in 5pool micro xD
Same difference is not an oxymoron!

transition into 2hat muta or 3hat hydra. Or you can always take a ninja expo and 3hat allin.

against toss 5pool ---> 2 hat hydra

if that fails just leave. dont try to delay the first cannon if it means losing ur lings. its more important to keep them alive so u can delay mining, kill the pylon/forge at the front, and force him to make multiple cannons in his main

second this....5 pool into 2 hat hydra allin is the best...remember to try to deny scouting
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Lol, there was a guy on my CSL team who had never heard of TL or ICC. I just picked him up because we needed a 4th player. He was not even d- level and was the kind of person who would try to make ultralisks off 1 base.

First game of CSL he beats Saracen with 5 pool looolll. Then wins with another 5 pool in the next match. After that people watch his replays and he loses the rest. But the point is, 5 pool can win you a lot of games even if you're at the level where don't know how to use control groups O_O

I can confirm this. I opened 12pool expand versus an unscouted 5pool and missed my hatch cancel. The pool didn't even finish by the time the lings were up my ramp. Oops. (Fortunately I beat you guys in the ace match, though).

And I like how most of your wins are under 5 minutes, and the losses are like 10.

Why 5 pool when you can 4 pool?

On July 22 2010 11:55 PokePill wrote:
My friend got B- going only 4 pool and he's a 90 apm D+ player normally.

I'm also pretty sure 4 pool is always superior to 5 pool, but it's been a while...


5 pool is used vs P because it is hard to kill the P that way, and people use 5 pool to cripple him and then kill him with a hydra bust

I so hope that's a reference to Morrowind. "Why walk when you can ride." But that's almost certainly me getting WAY too deep.

Also, I voted for B- or higher. A+ in the making? I think we're looking at the next Jaedong here, with his master strategy "the 5 pool"
