Interesting thread but your BM is appalling. Is it too much to ask to show some of the most esteemed members of our community a bit of respect?

Cheese is powerful stuff. We've seen atleast two threads about mass marines cheeses to get GM. Question is, what can Protoss do?

I totally agree, if you went to a tournament you wouldn't make it past the second round because after destroying your opponents economy and you went back to macro, it was awful, multiple supply blocks. 6 pooling is a strat but not one that can be duplicated time and time again without anonymity, nor is it the only strat you should have ready. Your micro was good but your BM is appalling. I also cheese once in a while, but if I played huk and he did that dancing thing, I would change my strat, you ever feel bad for doing this?

This Thread is amazing im going to get into GM doing this on NA ..... LOL I'm really good at 8 pool all in in ZvZ's i bet i could get GM with this Thank you OP ! :D


I remember you from lzgamer's stream chat. You think 8 pool beats 14 14 "80% of the time" and you're only low low master so you have a long ways to go

haha thanks OP for the very entertaining replays, I especially enjoyed the two against darkforce.

Now I have a link to give people when they deny this is a cheesy game.

nice guide but you should really manner up :/ saying things like "i fucked your mom" and preemptive gging some of the most respected members of the community is pretty sad

I’ve played a ton of 6pools up until now, and I fell in love with the strat. I really enjoy when people flame me and pretend I’m the BM guy just because I played 6pool (how does that make sense? O_O)


Well, it makes sense because you're essentially challenging someone to a race, and only informing them after the race has started that the finish line was actually 20 yards the other direction. Kiinda a dick move :D

I wasn't even cognizant of any problem with the OPs delivery until I read this page :<

Manners khaosis, the world is polite enough to use English on TL. We should be polite enough to not complain at the occasional misstep (Especially factoring in how many native English speakers write poorly :hint hint me




Anyway- lol. So gosu, the king of the fast pool. Cheese master. Lord of the Cheaplings. A very amusing guide and I won't lie I checked the information against my own cheesy pools to compare what I could do better.

Thanks for the guide
