does this still work in hots? I'd image because of some of the maps
-Newkirk Distrct has pretty decent rush distances)
-so does Korhal City and Star Station close positions
-Neo Planet S
-akilon flats
11rax 11gas reaper shits all over 6pool though! met a couple of 6poolers on the ladder and ive laughed as my reapers kite the lings and drones to eternity.
6pool should work exactly the same vs z and p though?

I like how the OP childishly censored "bad words", yet was fine throwing out "raped". Meh, for what it's worth glad this got bumped, makes me want to make some kids rage  Pretty good tips too.

I don't do this crap but I would say veto:
-Whirlwind
-Star Station
-Korhal City
You can stick with Whirlwind and hope they all go CC/nexus/hatch first, but even then the rush distance is just huge. The other maps are all 2 player which is obviously more reliable, and they all have shorter distances, except for Korhal City and Star Station close positions but that's a 1/3 chance and is just unreliable. With 2 player maps you have a higher chance of being scouted, but I personally (Terran) don't SCV scout against zerg and lots more Protoss I think are opening gate first, which often doesn't probe scout.

Sorry for bumping this classic thread, but I wonder if there are hilarious variations of drone all ins now that we start with even more drones. Also a lot of people seem to nex/cc/hatch first which seems pretty weak against these all ins.

i just watched DRG beat ByuL on stream with a 12/13/14 (? didn't see the start of the game) pool + drone pull, leaving 4 drones at home + double spine, one in main and one at nat + rallied zerglings off 4 drone mining

what i meant is that because i didn't see the start of the game i don't know if the pool was built on 12, 13 or 14, sorry if that was confusing. there was no gas involved

There's a 16 (I think) drone rush on Ulrena that works zvt and zvp, according to ZeRgWaVe (NA GM).

lol yea it could potentially work, is it good or going to help you improve? No.

That felt unnecessarily aggressive, considering this thread is dedicated to 6 pooling and drone rushing.
And it's worth noting that it probably actually does improve your worker combat micro, which is useful for defending cheese.
