I know the build really isn't anything special but for someone who doesn't want to spend a few hours to learn a build order can just copy this one. fair enough | ||

Yes but the point is that THE TOP SC2 player who happens to play terran. Who with 30% of his wins being offraced with zerg still is #1 GM(when I checked he was 3 points behind #1 but being as he had offraced so much I think it's fair to call him #1  in korea did this. | ||

If you mean proxy third hatch before pool, it's a horrible gimmick which achieves nothing. Someone did it to me yesterday, I simply cancelled my gas to build a second rax, bunk within range of the hatch and SCVs/Marines had no troubles holding his lings/queen/spines agression. | ||

You can't steal the natural. CC first expands at 2'16 - 2'22, you don't have 300 minerals at this time after hatch first to build your third hatch there. | ||

Against CC on the low ground it doesn't work though. | ||

I cant take my third when he send to my natural lots of ling + banes and I dont have enough stuff to don't lose to much :/ Then he is taking third and I'm way behind to win game. Should I need tank or sth else to hold it and safely expand ?
