Does it have to be 6-pool? Can it be 7-pool? I have a build for 7-pools.
does it have to be the exact build in liquipedia? can i make OL at 8 and keep streaming lings in if the situation calls for it?

I think baneling bust is a more effective all-in for Zerg.

i think 6 pooling is one of the biggest coin-flip cheeses in this game... i've stopped this strat 99% of the time and the only time i recall losing to this was actually on a four player map cus i scouted using the scv after building my rax instead of scouting right after finishing the depot.

so yeah, i approve of this thread =P

well it's viable against zerg and protoss on certain maps


Meh, really easy to scout and defend so I hope people don't rage too hard in this thread. I wonder if anyone will gain significantly.



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.

u just build a forge and cannon your mineral line.. same thing in broodwar. and on 4 player maps its more solid to go forge first on 12 anyway cos 6/7/8 pools are actually pretty strong zvp on 4 player maps. they suck on 2 player maps obviously cos toss sees it coming

You just block with forge Then get a pylon to block if necessary, and a cannon behind wall. Then some sort of 4 gate thing will generally punish drones.

How can you "have a build" for 7 pool and not 6 pool? Care to elaborate?

This should be pretty funny to see who wins, although I'll admit I think it's got less merit than the 4gate as 4gate is actually a viable strategy at all levels, especially if you understand the timings in your matchup.

6 pool, notso much. (maybe steppes or jb ;D!)

That's why I want to see someone do 100 6pools, so see what kind of score they got. Hell someone may even be demoted haha.

Also sup, I know GWen, played some of your maps, good stuff bud.

No, bad, 6 pool is terrible, the game doesn't need more cheese shit, especially cheese challenges like this =/. It's just dumb, and like someone said earlier, baneling bust is a lot more efficient of an all-in for zerg. 6 pool just to easy to scout and stop so, just no T_T

I can honestly see 6 pool having success in mid-high diamond...
but its even harder to transition out of 6 pool into a normal macro game then it is for the most aggressive four gates... so doing this is a bad idea imo
If you can't find it within yourself to stand up and tell the truth-- you don't deserve to wear that uniform
