If 6 pool is your only strategy I think by game 2 they will be ready for it :p. Pretty funny how successful you were though. In ZvZ 6 pool is so easy to hold off for me unless I don't see the drone building the spine. It should really only win you the game vs hatch first players which I don't think is very good zvz anyway.

Since proxy gateways don't work that well on ladder because of the 4-player maps... I'd say 4/5-Gate. It's only my opinion though. | ||

						 My problem with cheese is that it is based off blind counters, and that is why it is very unreliable. For example, i was playing as toss and i decided to open with an eco 2 gate, and the zerg tried to 6 pool me. The zerg got stomped based off a blind counter. When running something standard like 2 base colossus, or marine-tank, the player has control over the game whether his comp is scouted or not. There is no worse feeling than having some weird cheese scouted, or walking into a hard counter. I'm against cheese, because it is too luck-based, and therefore inconsistent. | ||

						 I got promotion like 3 hours after. Was like "wtf diamond". 2 months after, i was demoted to Platinum, where i'm stuck now, playing standard games, mainly pushing macro to improve as Zerg. Yeah 6-pool works. Really well. | ||
