Even if you could figure out how to make it work what fun would it be? Sure you'd win a few games, but you'd never really play the game. It wouldn't be something to do all the time. Just something to do once and a while to throw someone completely off their rocker. I mean, how well are you going to play in a second game if you just lost your first one to a worker rush? There's gotta be some psychological impact there. | ||

This definitely would not work versus the Terran SCV 100%, and it would definitely would not work versus another Protoss Probe since they will always have more probe than you do. Not sure about versus Zerg Drone though. | ||

Not sure about versus Zerg Drone though. Okay, it will not work vs Protoss. But against Z or T, you could kill all their workers? In any case, they cannot mine or build since that would require them to stay still. You can eventually kill them all, or kill his CC before he can get yours, because you are already in position. I might be wrong though. Question: is it true Zerg heals faster on creep? Edit: after some searching, I am almost positive they do not. Can't see for myself though, uninstalled  | ||

Not sure about versus Zerg Drone though. Moving injured probes to recover shields sounds like a doable strategy if your micro is good enough. Doesn't sound 100% impossible. You should really get your facts right. It would work against Z too because shield recovery is much stronger than Z HP recovery | ||

So if you rush with the initial 6 SCVs, you have 50 minerals worth of repairing (how much HP does that equal?). On super close rush distance maps, this MIGHT work TvP | ||

It's not a particularly reliable strategy though. More funny than anything. | ||
