1. Noticed this thread bumped
2. Launch SC2 ladder
3. Pick terran
4. Build rax on low ground, give no fuck on scouting
5. Take rines and scv's to enemy base
6. Kill the dude, get bm'd
7. Laugh, close SC2
8. Write a post

This stuff still works somehow XD

I just wanted to say, I dubbed this "the baguette" because the op is french.
It´s like a hilarious insider joke thats kills the opponent.

Greatest cheese to date.

Hi guys,

I'm here to discuss with you something that I came up with while using this on the ladder. Note that I'm currently top 10 diamond in EU server and I got there just by doing this (my version of it) and some cannon rushing as well.

First of all, when I use this BO I tend to build my depot and first rax in the upper part of the ramp, because I consider that if the other guy sees it on the low ground, he must think I'm cheesing and will react correctly. I try to mindtrick my opponent into thinking that I'm going for something more standard, at least, than walling in in low ground.

So what I have been doing recently is to start a depot when my barracks is being built (at 12 supply, @100 min after 11 rax and SCV) and right after send the SCV back to mining, letting the depot at like 70 health or so so that it won't die to a few scout attacks. When the rax is finished, I let that SCV around until the first marine comes out to clean the scouting worker, and when that happens, I cancel the depot and proceed normally. If the enemy's scout pokes in in the time period between the rax being finished and the marine already out, I put the worker to build the depot, never letting it finish, pretending to finish the wall off.

What are your thoughts about that? Do you think that it is worth to delay the all in for some time to try to trick your opponent? I try to leave my base at 4:30 too with everything and the difference is like 2 marines or something.

Please let me hear your thoughts!

And also any grammar mistakes or anything like that would be great. Thank you!

I think you can get the same result by just proxying the other 2 rax and not bothering with the fake suply. If he is persistent, just send a scv to the natural to fake a low-ground CC. By that time you should have 1 marine out and deal with the scout. Also, if you dont want to proxy, you can use the SCV you sent to the natural to build a rax right there Still, on this new larger ladder maps it's not as efficient of a build it once was.

Funny to see this thread. I made it to platinum without knowing anything about mid/late game using 3 rax proxy over and over.

EDIT: sorry for the bump, I just saw the age of this thread. I'm surprised this strategy is still viable today!

You could probably make masters with builds like these. Not that it takes much skill.

I've been facing a lot of 9 depot 10 rax 10 rax 12 rax proxies, insanely hard to hold as a protoss even when scouted

Now this build is done with all the 3 rax proxied and no OC. There are a few players who got GM EU using only this build in all matchups.

Pretty sure I'm the one that created this build... Rank #1 in SC2 Beta using 3 racks 12 rine all in. I would usually float my CC over their base during my rush to provide vision if they tried to wall off.

Blizz changed how the build works when they made you supply depot before building a barracks.
