Well, the most common worker rushes are the double extractor trick with 12 drones or double chronoboosting out 13-14 probes.

None of the 6 worker rushes actually work, unless you're so much better than your opponent.

I find it hard to believe you can still catch people that arent low diamond with this


Cella did the double extractor, worker rush strategy a couple of weeks ago against a progamer (who bad mannered ragequit) who had games casted at the Dallas MLG. There's a replay on Cella's mediafire page. This is the link: http://www.mediafire.com/?zz19441rhaa8eb1

Looking closely at that, it was 12 workers vs 12 by the time his drones arrived, the advantage then comes from getting the first few hits in and INSANE MICRO.

This reminds me of a high Diamond who 6pooled me. Now when you're that high up, you're not expecting a 6pool. I fended him off, and my 4gate rolled him despite constant ling harass and a failed baneling bust. Kid was pissed.
Whats a 4pool?

hrmm
auto-repair does wonders,
is worker rush the hard counter to worker rush?
and is that the only BO (if it counts as that) whose counter is itself?

You really wanted to tell someone about that didn't you? Even if it didn't relate too much to the topic.

Anyways, the rush Catz does with 3 drones is not to end the game... it is to steal mining time and slow down the other player initially. He makes sure he doesn't lose any drones, so that if he kills 1-2 scvs he has accomplished his mission.
Can you ever argue in favor of something without first proving it?

If you throw one marine into your worker rush you have a GSL finalist strategy.... ;-)
