I've lost every single time I've tried it, so I don't even bother with it anymore. You should try it against me then. I've lost every game i've ever played against it. I almost successfully defended against it the last game i played until he came back a minute and a half later with mass lings/blings. I chuckled at the 100 4gate thread (i myself am not participating), so i guess it's only fair that a thread like this would pop up. Coming soon: The 100 2rax Challenge! | ||

If you don't double rax on small maps you lose to stupid shit like 6 pools. 6pooling is complete cheese, that sadly works. i loled so hard talking about 2rax but 6pool is terrible cheese. 2rax of course is high level play! | ||

Never lost to a 6 pool before. You see it's coming, and you finish your wall off, lol. Replay packs will probably be embarrassing. 20% win rates anyone? | ||

Idk, just seems a tad hum-drum. I agree with the others, bling bust or roach rush (not necessarily limited to just or as many as 7) sounds way more exciting, they don't punish you as bad for failure, and they give a little more variation than 6pool. In any case though, good idea, but I'm gonna pass this time. | ||

I don't think this follows the same spirit as the 100 four-gate thread, which at least requires elementary school level skills to pull off. A better thread would be a 100-baneling bust challenge or a 100 7RR all-in challenge as someone mentioned above. The point of the last thread wasn't to refine your 4gate build. IT was to collect data on someones rise or fall through the ranks while executing one strategy well. | ||

You realize that protoss doesn't scout until 9/12 so there isn't a really good way to block it unless you chrono units out from the start which most of us dont like to do because we use chronos for workers. | ||

6-pool is just too easy to defend, even without scouting. | ||
