sorry, counter for P?


Make your own cannons asap or prepare to expo or gg.


Make them in his base with your scouting probe though, preferably with the same design to be super BOSS+1.


Yes preferably.
There's no S in KT. :P

there was a thread about this a few months ago. though it only discussed PvP. Depends on the map, but for the most part this will not pay off PvT. You are forced to cut too many probes to afford all this stuff before the marine comes out.

PvP the only counter is to pull probes behind your mineral line and fight BEFORE the Pylons go up. Yes in other words, you have to know this exist, you have to expect it, and you may have to react blindly. There is no other counter. Throwing down a forge as soon as you scout will not save you. Why? Because this type of rush does not require a hidden pylon+cannon. It hits much earlier than a normal cannon rush.

edit:
the build order discussed (with video) on said thread a few months ago was
10 Pylon
10 Forge
o not make Probes, wait till 275 Minerals*
Make 3 Pylons for wall
Will have exactly 150 Minerals when 1st Pylon finishes.
Make 1 Cannon
*Resume Probe production*

p.s. this is viable in 1v1 maps too, not just teams.

that is just seriously stupid... because an expansion cost 400 for toss and terran, 300 for zerg IF IT'S FINISHED if not you just lose a small amount of minerals... but you spend 750 minerals for that cheese... the result just dont worth the cost of that... because you are just far behind after that
