I might stick with Terran for now then...Seeing as how this got 13 pages within the first day of posting, it seems that many people have noticed it and will exploit it. Most methods of dealing with 6 pool do not involve relying on the zealot block because the zerglings get there before you could possibely have a zealot out. Usually it involves building + cannon or building into zealots blocks. | ||

It is however a matchup changing/breaking bug. I play zerg, but i really dont want a bug like this around. Goodbye protoss tech plays. | ||

It's not like you out-played your opponent.. | ||

Please share if it is something we can all use I'm pretty sure that if you just spam hold and/or stop you should/might be okay. The game engine puts your unit onto some sort of stopped attack, which you can interrupt by spamming stop/hold | ||

There are ways around that and no wall should be foolproof anyways, and vs a normal 14 gas/14 pool build you have at least 1 sentry out anyway, so unless you get early pooled it doesnt matter at all. and if he sacs econ in favour of trying to get through, you can always place an additional pylon at your ramp. edit: and i have yet to see any good player using this. Its known for a while, but most of the time not worth it. are u a kid or something? toss are SUPPOSE to be able to zealot wall off and defend if not speedlings will be just overpowering, coming in and killing probes leaving unharm while the toss is moving towards ur base.... i suspect you try to do 9 pool every game and lose due to wall in... | ||
