you don't, that's why it's BOSS
The truth is, Yagami-kun, I suspect that you may in fact be Kira.

What happens when two BOSS cannon rushers meet each other?
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

Possible on Xel Naga also. Great in PvP but any decent toss will drop a forge or build a pylon/gateway in the position of the "boss" cannon rush. protip, dont overreact and try to kill the pylons. re expand or scout early and drop a forge yourself (pvp) or if you are T just lift off, if you Z, lol as he cant cannon your creep.

Because it's too high quality for the SC2 Strategy forum.

This is 100% most definitely a Tasteless build. There is no counter, you just win. Hot_Bid says.

This was an extremely well written article. And I am glad you have taken the time hot bid to post and educate us on the... how you say.... "Cannon Rush". It is very informative, and I indeed have learned a lot. Thank you, maybe next you could teach us the 2 gateway proxy tactic as I believe I am having massive troubles trying to pull that one off.

Thanks

WarChimp.

It's similiar to the irresistable force / immovable object scenario. There cannot be two BOSS cannon rushes in the same game.

If both players try it, one player will succeed. That player executed the BOSS cannon rush. His opponent did not.
