The one thing that's disappointing me is the number "you're copying baller" accusations. I suppose I was just unaware that "joking" and "impersonating baller" were the same thing. T_T

I think it's mostly based off the "hydraroach" thing (which I concede in a heartbeat is a ton better than this ) but idk. His was a unit creation and mine was a sc2 tactic, I don't really see the comparison.

I think they just equate baller with really funny + fake seriousness. Since OP is this as well, and hydroach came first, they assume its a ripoff. *shrug* I'd take it as praise, that hydroach post is epic beyond belief. Not your fault the people calling it a ripoff live in tiny worlds.

How does this fair in PvP against a triple nexus counter wall-in?

I don't understand how this is going to keep you much safer than a normal wall which shouldn't have any pylons in the front (because that makes your wall weak) and sentries will usually be able to Force Field enough to stop all-ins at even the wide-ramp on Antiga Ship-yard.

IMO it's probably not worth it for the lost mining time and need to build extra drones for saturation.

It's going to put you severely behind every game and a Zerg just sitting back will crush you on your 2 base. It's like preparing for something that doesn't always happen. I don't think its a good idea...

Well why not double nexus wallin? You'd have double the chrono and probe production than normal! And a single cannon makes you nigh unto invulnerable! It's also harder to scout because you wouldn't have to make the forge part of the wall so you don't need the forward pylon! (Nexi don't need pylons)

Now you're just being crazy. A third Nexus would completely offset the precision and skill involved in this build. I mean, if you're in lower level play, sure, but when GM players come in with 50 mutas at the 6 minute mark, you're pretty boned.

Hahha this thread is a joke or what ? , not offence to author. But for sure you are not even a diamond player.
For one stupid example , 8-10 can easyli kill your nexus , and you cant do anything because your uniots will be block behind it..
So gg , next try pls :D

True. Still, I'd like to see how it plays out, it might have a spot in the metagame.

In all seriousness, though, I don't think two Nexi would actually fit in that space

Edit: to poster above, it actually is a joke.

Nexus is all that matters, they dont need to be powered by pylon.

Hi guys I am rank 6 GM Terran Xenocider, I don't think I'm the first one to say this BUT THIS ALSO WORKS VERSUS TERRAN. My marauders were just not able to penetrate the heavy defenses of the Nexus. I think as Terran the proper response is to immediately throw down 4-5 starports upon seeing the Nexus wall and going mass medivac to lift your units over.

the pic just got me an idea ... if a single pylon powers 4 production buildings or more at once that aren't powered by other pylons, the crystal in the middle of the pylon should turn into a crystal statue of artosis. I am not good at sculpting 3d models though, but it should be easy to script for custom maps.

This sounds AMAZING, the only problem i see is the infestor using emp on the shields and making your chrono energy too vulnerable.

This is the counter to a 15 hatch in your natural expansion because of no economic damage to you as you don't lose nexus time~!

The only thing I can think of wrong with this is the fact that you would have to over saturate ur second and 3rd, losing minerals overall. Would be good for like a 2 base timing attack I suppose, but if gets into the late game I think you would be at a disadvantage economically. Would be nice to see some numbers as far as time/amount mined compared to the traditional expo 3 probes on each gas and 16 on line.

Try another route paperboy.
