EPTI don't think I've done anything wrong. If I knew he wants to do that, I'd probably have more marauders, but I thought bunkers are enough.
any suggestions?

A safe ZvZ openner is a 14/14 (gas/pool) build where you immediately saturate the gas and remove your drones from gas at 92, 96 and 100 and immediately get speed and lings. If you suspect cheese changing to a 13/13 build will ensure you're safe, but a 14/14 build is generally fine against early pools as well, though you may need to use drones a little in the first engagement. Either allows you to transition in to either a variety of Speedling FE or any combination of pure ling, roach ling, or bling/ling builds safely. Liquipedia has some more specific builds: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Zerg_Strategy#General_Builds | ||

I'd probably have to see a replay to know what exactly happened, but if you're suspecting a 1 base blink allin, you want more bunkers. Did he use an observer or maybe a warp prism to spot up a cliff to blink, or did he just run up your ramp and go for it? If you see your opponent 1 basing, as a general rule, build more barracks and feel OK cutting a couple scvs to get a couple bunkers up if money is tight. A missile turret will also be useful against voidrays/observers/DTs/non-range colossus rush, and will shut down attempts to blink up your ramp using the high-ground sight. | ||

It seems to be some sort of textual glitch and you don't actually have that bonus pool, proven when I had 184 pool, won a game and lowered it to 180. I won a game and it went down proportionally, but I just logged in this afternoon and it's back to normal Next time I'll keep quiet  | ||

I know it really depends on composition, and how many helions, but I wonder if this new patch goes into effect how the ESCGoody's of the world will deal with this. Myself included. Thanks | ||

I just searched "elo" and the Wikipedia entry was the third result. Look it up. It's formally known as the "Elo rating system" and is the premier system used by chess leagues.
