Ahahaha, fun read. Who knew worker rushes could be so intense
The worker rushes I encounter are typically just people sacking their mmr and they are usually not very exciting since I have apm sufficient enough to deal with them ezpz ;-p

These blogs are constant entertainment.

Surely if they just A-move they'll have more workers by the time you arrive at their base?

edit: which race do you most prefer worker rushing with?


Both of these points are addressed in the nuts and bolts interlude:


Speaking of hit points, Terran are the best race to worker rush with, and the worst to worker rush. Even though they can't regenerate their HP, their 5 extra health makes them better in a stand up fight, which most worker rushes end on.

Just watched the replay...

It was fantastic.

The ring around the rosie part was great and I loved each of you microing your asses off in the end.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Not even thinly veiled brag. Just a straight up brag. "Hey, all you guys losing to worker rushes. I'm way better than you. I figured I'd post that in this blog here on teamliquid, that forum that you people in bronze probably don't read."

The only good thing is, when you'll finally have reached your desired portrait, you'll see that it doesn't matter at all, that it doesn't contribute to your enjoyment of this game. Maybe you'll even realize that you've been a dick to people for nothing and you find a hobby that does not include making other people have less fun in their free time. If not, you could find another way of being a dick. Have you thought about going to schools and punch little kids in the face? I mean, you're much stronger than those kids!

uhhh, your post doesn't make sense. You're just trying to get e-famous off of exploiting people not as good as you at a videogame.

First you say this,

So what happened? I would not attribute it to any improvement in my worker rushing abilities. I've been using the same method since the beginning: Send workers and attack move. If they focus fire a single worker, I move it away, but I generally don't do anything more sophisticated than that. Hell, if I see them attack move, I immediately leave the game, so it's not like I'm somehow forcing victories through dexterous micromanagement where others would fail.


Yet everything in all 4 of your posts suggest otherwise. That you actually do try, and you actually do your best to beat these "bads". I can't believe TL spotlights this garbage.

But it does to him - hence his investment in obtaining it. What he's doing on its own isn't necessarily hilarious, but his write ups certainly are. As far as punching little kids in the face... if it was narrated in a similar manner I'd probably read about it too.

I have made the experience (with all those achievements in video games) that once you complete them, they don't mean shit to you because they don't really add to the game.
