I seem to recall someone else doing a mothership rush.



1) YOu didnt make cannons
2) You didn't tell your opponent is was coming
3) You didnt bitch about how slow the thing was
4) all before winning anyway

clearly yours was worse

edit: [/sarcasm]

No worries, KHB. You will always be remembered as the first epic motherf..rusher.

Boxer never used motherships... and @KHB.. I would say your mothership was pure win, but then again you're on my xfire and you are always on WoW T.T

That game was freaking sweet. Anyone who incorporates a mother ship into strategy is pure win.

Edit 2: Now I'm really glad we have Motherships instead of Arbiters. Imagine having more than one of those capable or recalling Void Rays or Immortals to raze a base. And keep an extra at home to recall you back if you need it.


OTHER MASSIVE BRAINWAVE

Is it possible to get 2 recalls on 2 different motherships and recall to enemy main base and recall back home. Just jumping from spot to spot recalling

Limit of 1 Mothership. Otherwise that would be totally imbalanced. I still find the Mothership to be a far better defensive unit than an offensive one, but this rush is too great!


I don't think it would be TOTALLY imbalanced. I mean in SC1 BW you could recall arbiters but then again the recall radius was smaller. But then again it wasn't game breaking. Funny comments from huk though ahah made my day (:

Would not be imba at all, Brood War had Arbiters and they weren't limited to one. They could even nerf the health and stuff a bit, but I really think P should be able to make more than one, at 400/400 it's not like anyone can mass them too much, and even if they did Motherships in their current state are really easy to deal with.

If you're gonna keep idra's typo, you gotta keep HuK's typo.

Since nobody else seemed to notice: he misspelled suspicious.

I used to dislike HuKs play (getting caught in the "LOLOL ONLY 4GATE", after actually seeing more of his games I seem to enjoy his attitude more than anyone's. Not a lot of folks could pull this off, too awesome.

lol just tried this rush strat in 2v2, both me and my parter were able to mass up big ground armies and i tried to mass recall our combined armies into their base (after all it is MASS recall right? wrong... mass recall only works on your own units *sniff*.
