Then you can place two pylons at his ramp to prevent any retaliation while you build gates at your main. Now you've successfully stop your enemy from mining with 2~3 cannons. I don't even know why I'm sharing this. I'm having trouble with successful cannon rushes too, but this seems to work well. Cannon rushes are extremely map specific in it's execution. On LT you can also hide a pylon very well at the natural and then cannon on the high ground | ||

Building no defenses so you can get four warp gates up, having no probes in gas after 50, building a bunch of proxy pylons in your opponents base, saving all chronoboosts for one building, and warping zealots into their mineral line isn't cheese? REALLY? | ||

10 depot 12 rax 15 OC 15 depot to finish wallin 15 marine(keep pumping) keep pumping scvs until you have close to 750 minerals, then make 5 rax at once hotkey all raxes and rally to one point and then spam "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" go to opponent and win especially powerful in 3v3 etc, since no single guy can defend vs one guy controlling like the first 30 marines, while the 2nd player gets to control a 2nd group of 30 marines and so on... | ||

Much easier to get your second gas for fast cloak in this variation too. If you wall with the rax and factory and build the starport in the middle of your base, you can prevent scouting that way I suppose. | ||

Proxy reaper Proxy gates 6 pool seems to work well in 3v3/4v4 through gold , assuming good micro on the reapers However I would recommend the fourth person does something less all-iny (void-rays?) because it is hard to hit everyone with cheese in 4v4. | ||

You could also think of that as: 11 factory @ 100% factory, starport @ 100% starport, tech lab 11 banshee | ||

If you 13 gated, your chances of stopping the rush sit at around 5%. Even if you save all chronoboost for warpgate, the opponent can just CB his probes and come out even or ahead in economy. | ||

It was game 1 on Lost Temple, he put two cannons down to wall off the bottom of the ramp to stop the FE and contain the lings. Not sure I would call it cheese but it was brilliant either way. In game 2 he went forge first on Scrap Station but that was just to set up a wall for his expo, I don't think he built any cannons near Idra but it's been a while since I saw that game so I could be wrong. | ||

well, build pool at 7, two drones till 8, extractor trick to get 6 zerglings out Very small time difference and much better econ  cannon rush: 9 pylon, send that probe to a good location where the enemy is I like 11/12 forge build cannons, while at the same time pumping out more probes and building cannons to d base if need be obv doesn't work very well vs Z with the whole creep thing There's also the DT/Voidray rush, I'm gonna test it to see what gets them out the fastest Here's what I do: 9 pylon 13 gate 14 gas 15 gas 17 pylon 17 cybernetics core (might want to make a zealot if you need to, I was vs terran and scouted so I didn't) 20 twilight council (stargate here if void ray) 21 gate keep pumping probes and fill both gas' up with 3 probes once they finish while twilight council is being made (or if you have 50 extra gas before hand) research warpgates | ||
