I assure you the wall is completely tight. | ||

Doing the math now.... A nexus is 1000/1000 and takes 100 seconds to build, giving us 10/10 per second, with a width of 4 squares, yielding us 2.5/2.5 health per square x 4 squares at the cost of 400 minerals. The only other way to fill up 4 squares exactly is either 2 pylons or 2 cannons. We all know pylons got more health, so lets figure them out: A Pylon is 200/200 and takes 25 seconds to build, giving us a mere 8/8 per second, and a width of 2 squares, at a cost of 100 minerals, giving us 4/4 health per square x 2 squares at the cost of 100 minerals. Now wait caradoc, you might say, this means pylons are stronger in the wall. You would be right, but pylons can't CHRONOBOOST or BUILD PROBES. With chrono boost and building probes, you get more probes. and more probes = more things to kill the lings when they break you down = more chances to win. And this is why this build will forever change the future of PvZ. | ||

Edit: You don't even need pylons to build the nexii, so that's 100 minerals saved there. 2 probes. | ||

I dunno, seems like if you had more security at your natural and also your 3rd would be more cost efficient. you got me thinking, sure a walled 3rd is good. but what about my 4th, the gold.... hmm http://imgur.com/0quJR All credit goes to Bibbit for the original idea. im just a stealing his brilliant work. | ||

The best part of that (pretty epic) image is the 'rich mineral fields have been exhausted' message on the gold nexus | ||
