I started doing this cheese today. I've won 5 or 6 times in a row, NO loss.
I went from silver league to gold one.
Thank you, this cheese worked vs all silver and gold players that I played against.

surprisingly, this is probably a syndrome of the AI being too good in SC2, not marines or zealots or what not being OP =/

and @ people saying koreans are sad for abusing the best builds, guess you've never played games early beta/or new RTS games - that is literally all you are supposed to do find the best cheese builds, and abuse it, and then a counter is found, and it turns into a pure build order game where you have to accept slight advantages/disadvantages

which is very sad. But as all the optimists say..."this is just beta!"
and all the cynicists know better.

koreans are so sad, they will do anything for a win LOL it doesnt make you a better player to scv rush, anyway most people play super greedy early game ( zergs going 13hatch expo for instance, you can send the scv that built your 11rax and rally rines to z and bunker him before his pool is done ) so maybe this can be dealt with faster scouting and chrono boosting zeals? T_T i dno i havent seen it.. maybe if i lose to cheese and get mad today i will use this strat lol

Yeah, koreans are playing to win and that's why they were so weak in SC1.

You clearly do NOT understand how games evolve - people always play the best strategies over and over, until someone finds counter to that strategy.

Imagine that if Koreans didn't use carriers on katrina "BECAUSE THEY ARE OP111!111!" there would be no Flash build. That's a sad thought

Ok, I played several test games and I totally disagree it cannot be defended 100% of the time. 2 gate (even late second gate, with cyber/gas canceled) is playable counter. Zealots + probes are doing just fine.

Best thing anyone can do at the moment is to abuse this build to the brim till blizzard realize how op it is hopefully give a better balance next patch. Unfortunately for me, most Terran I play against are idiots so I'm still able to claw my way back up after the disadvantage.

Please give a replay, because I'm 99% sure the terran you played against was terrribad or something.

Your zealots and probes shouldn't ever be able to get to the marines if the terran is microing correctly, and scvs (esp with marines behind) always beat probes in fights (by a huge margin)

Of course, he determined it was unstoppable after not scouting and losing to it in one game.

lol, ya, that guy is the biggest cry baby ever. I cant stand watching his stream anymore because all he does is whine and complain when he loses.

To be honest, it IS the beta, Blizz isn't automatically going to see corellations like, stop warpgate rush in PvP --> Everyone goes BBS in TvP.

@-orb-

I played several games in a row vs Tarson just to see if it's really 100% uncounterable. He's top6 in his platinum div (2077 ranking), I'm top4 in mine (2046 ranking). And damn, I'm not even a P user (I played P, Tarson used T).

The only case you have absolutely zero chance is when you force to keep mining gas and making gas units and/or using no probes for defense (you should use at least the same amount than T got the scvs) . Zealots are cutting the scvs and probe's damage is just fine to support to make it effective counter.

Please show me unbeatable rush played on top level, so far I saw no single replay of this here and yet everyone got convinced it's true. After having it played it does not really feel like "90% win ratio opening" when used by top players, but I'd love to change my mind if I see the 100% proven, unbeatable varation of this opening and play another series to make the final statement.

Can someone please post a replay? Everytime these threads pop up there are no replays to look at.

Also would be easy to fix by lowering scv healt to 50 or 40. Would also not change any of the other matchups or PvT mid to lategame.

haha I it's funny to see so many people whose first response to a thread like this is defending the balance like it's something that comes ingrained in Blizzards games without any effort.

This is beta, of course there are going to be things like this. It'll get fixed and the game will move on.
Until then, abuse it so it gets fixed faster.

(somehow I have a feeling that most fun and creative play will happen in Beta.. once the launch is official and the balance changes become minimal, the Korean era starts)

Then make SCVs untargetable when building, because 60 hp is what compensates for this

Another bullshit thread about a new "ultimate" strategy but not a single replay to show for it.

Post a few replays of this beating good protoss players.
Replay or GTFO

ever played t in sc1? most of the times the scv even doesnt slide wide enough out of the building to get attacked. i think probes lost range too.

I can attest to this firsthand. =P He gets all bent out of shape and hostile against anyone who complains about imbalances except when it hurts his own race choice. I've personally been BM'ed by him twice now, in game. =P

O.O
Are you serious? I have to pull a scv to deal with probe/drone harass 90% of my games (in sc1).
