fuck those are some advanced tactics. i suggest making a pylon prison along your entire mineral line to block him

It's map and position-dependent, because workers can pass between adjacent pylons. (But NOT supply depots... wtf terran imba.) But on maps like python with a short air distance, shuttle w/speed will greatly reduce your probes' traveling time. (And you can cycle damaged probes in/out in case of harass!)

The multitasking is a bitch, though... does anyone have a shuttle/worker practice map?

guys I have been testing this out on iccup on players around the C level. The problem is everytime I start owning him with this strategy, he uses it against me as well! what can I do to stop him from evening the playing field?

Yeah, experienced players will know what to do straight away.. this is the problem with higher level play.

Well, logic suggests that adding more nexuses and massing workers - so that you can mine his minerals faster than he can mine yours - should do the trick.. though I guess manner pylons in your own mineral line might work as well, as suggested by Duke. Maybe the two combined is the answer?

I totally agree. sucks when you can't let a good joke end that way, instead of dragging it on until its pointless and no longer funny.

If you want to steal his resources you gotta do it like this (from a ladder game):

Take the mins, take the gas, much less mining distance so about 300% more effective than your superstrat.

WeSt, what program did you use to make that gif?

camtasia 4

Actually I lied about the replay... if you watch the end of the gif you can see that ir was Sutur Brood and not Garm Brood.

This only works if you send your starting drone to their gas.

Nah, it's not really a hard counter to my strat (I don't think there will ever be), but it's great to see how BW is still being innovated.
