Let me try to reformulate: If the pros start training how to execute these attacks, and also how to execute the defense, would it still have an above 50% winrate? If it would, it would force a change in metagame towards more defensive builds that can defend this rush more than 50% of the times. (it would change the Nash equilibrium if you know game theory.  ) That is, if people kept playing the same builds they do now, it would be enough to rush them every game and you would beat them.If it is enough for the pros to learn how to execute the defense (from a normal build) properly, then nothing will change, apart from the pros having to put in some extra training. | ||

So then you say that this will change the ZvZ and ZvT metagame at high level, as most of todays openers lose to your builds (assuming both sides execute well)? | ||

You should get some zerg pro (TLO? ) and teach him all the ins and outs. Even if other players started adapting their openers to the player, that would mean that the usual builds would be more viable, and you could do the rush less often (according to some Nash equilibrium again).If what you say is accurate, the zergs are giving away the advantage of allowing macro-cheese from T and Z almost every game. | ||

I did some mistakes, but won anyway. Here's the rep! http://www.gamereplays.org/starcraft2/replays.php?game=33&show=details&id=242174 Including insults such as "you will never win against me", "pls go play tetris noob" and "u suck" - while he saw himself losing. EDIT: This was done in high masters by the way, so it is very possible to get to grandmaster by 6-7pooling, at least in ZvZ! | ||
