It didn't work on Xel'naga, but it did work on Steppes of War. So maybe it works for other maps with similar main base architecture. | ||

Either way this trick is a fair response being cannoned and should probably stay in the game. | ||

I don't think this will last | ||

About 20% of my losses come from bunker and cannon wallins so this is like christmas and eastern together. ;D | ||

I seem to remember that the other half of why the depots were placed was to keep (usually Terrans') two-building walloff from being possible on the low ground. Prevents early game scouting because a player couldn't get a worker there fast enough on big maps if they guessed wrong once. That is quite the cool trick, though. +1 for you, sir. | ||

can't believe haven't seen people do this? This is epic way so that now these cheesy wall offs won't be too strong anymore, imo it is good for the game. Now we don't need neutral depots all the time :D | ||

Unfortunatly, I don't think it does anything VS a well placed cannon behind your natural mineral line (the one blocked by pylons). I would still 15 pool ZvP because of that. | ||
