At first, I thought that this was a silly, funny troll thread. But then I watched some Koreans getting a macro third-wall nexus and expanding like crazy... And then the irony hit me like a giant wrecking ball to the balls.

If you aren't a troll (which I doubt), there are some big problems, the first is an extra 20 probes is 1000 minerals + 2 pylons. The second is probes can't leave to go to your third base. The third is that if you have good macro, those 400 minerals are a warp prism with zealots, or another base. It also lets your opponent go for droning like crazy, because all he has to do is have vision of the wall and occasional scouting to know when you're pushing, and on a map like Antiga that will be plenty of time to prepare.
If you did something like a successful cannon rush and you suspect your opponent is going for an all in, than this could be effective, but having sentries/building more cannons will usually be enough.
Also, if you want to use it with a normal nexus in your natural, for either fast probes or chronoboosts, you could, but you would need to destroy the gateway/forge when you want to move out unless you're void ray rushing/all inning. I'll leave you with this quote. "It's better to go for a strategy that loses to cheese and is good in the late game then to preemptively prepare for cheese"
And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee!

That's pretty cool, but this is the walloff that I use, it's fairly baneling tight if I do say so myself

I usually like to transition to warp prism secret expand into 5star carrier.

I've been doing macro town hall (partial) wall with all races for a long time, in some situations and maps. I enjoy it a lot, and always thought it's underused, especially in specific base races and base snipes. Glad to see it more established now.

I've also seen it in ZvZ in BW game recently, where they use macro hatch to help block ramp and mine gas from the expo almost as fast as from a real expo, then win the muta-muta phase with more muta, because of the extra gas.

Therefore, i would suggest this brilliant new Ramp wall-offs.

Not sure if you can call any of this "new" or accredit it to any particular individual. No offence "Bibbit", I've just never heard of you. Walling location is always player preference.

Naturally, a ramp wall is slightly harder to hold and takes slightly longer to build, but once erected, it facilitates easier defence of the third base, while leaving more room in your natural for buildings or army movement, etc. Personally, I don't care much for the ramp wall on Antiga. I feel it's risky and harder to defend against someone who's trying to metagame you by doing a fast pool.

Also, in the screenshot of the ramp-nexus wall, why is the wall not a wall? Is this intentional? It seems as if the pylon and cannon could be back more and the gateway could actually be adjacent to the nexus, making a proper wall-off. Perhaps you were just trying to explain the concept without actually doing it properly? I don't know.

Ramp wall version 2 ft. Artosis pylon is very cute. I wonder how badly behind the 3rd nexus puts you?

The third screenshot was obviously a joke, which is why I didn't mention it. I also don't wall ramps in PvZ. Was that not the point I made?

I can see the merit of 14 nexus in their natural and start mining their minerals.

Thank you Cokefreak but I'm just about certain that this duttroach character is trolling. Obviously he won't admit to it since it would defeat the purpose but you get it.

And if he's not, he's not worth your time. >_>
