tbh i dont get mad when i lose to 6pool because you could of always played better otherwise you would of won the drone version of 6pool + all drones can be frustrating cus its even harder but as long as this guy is one of the few who does it ladder is fine. if theres more than 30-50people who do this and are as good as him then ladder will become a waste of time ^- ^ | ||

You're usually on two base with solid tech, as long as it wasn't a donate your army for free sort of thing you aren't out.Mass marine builds can also be expanded behind, what's your point? Just because you can behind behind it doesn't mean its not cheese, because if your 3 gate immortal or blink stalker push fails, you pretty much lose. My point is you listed STANDARD protoss play as OMG CHEESE!!!1!. Stop that shit, its annoying. | ||

 White-ra took that better than anyone I've ever seen take a 6-pool/drone rush. More reason to love the guy | ||

Nice stuff. Can you give some tips on how to hold 6 pool, better, when going hatch first? Do you think it's better for the person to run away or just a-move with their drones (micro of course helps, just saying) in the open? What about spines? Should a hatch first player try to built spines, and how should they deal with a morphing spine? Also, wtf is a tower? I have tried figuring out through context clues but can't. Some of your english is kind of hard to get through, but tower is really confusing o_O | ||

Stop that shit, its annoying. Do you even play the game?? The 3 gate immortal and blink stalker builds are definitly NOT standard play, they are ALL-IN's. You don't expand when going for an immortal all-in vs Terran... It's all on 1 base, and you WILL be behind if you don't kill them. Seriously??? Void ray all-ins, 3 gate immortal, and blink stalkers are NOT standard at all. They are CHEESE. You obvioulsy know nothing about the game. | ||

Should have chrono'd out workers, and tried to pick off drones while they hit his nexus. Should have enough money to make enough to win, plus have to use regen shield micro. Nice stuff.

Some of your english is kind of hard to get through, but tower is really confusing o_O by tower i mean bunker, spine, or cannon. sorry im used to simply the word tower because of wc3^^ ill write something about how to counter it decent taday in the evening. basicly the best thing you can do is moving ur drones to a mineralpatch that is inbetween 2 other mineralpatches. keep spamming move command (right click) on this mineralpatch. by this he cant do anything because as soon as he wants to fight there u attackmove out of this and will oneshot a ling because all the drones will attack even tho they are in exactly the same spot. its basicly what you see in the video below only for defense purpose if someone knows what i mean i would appreciate it if he could play a game against a friend and does this and makes a vod out of it so i can use it in the mainpost. | ||
