This would be brilliant but I'm pretty sure the wall isn't tight on the right side of the choke, so all the zerglings and marines and zealots can just walk right in and have a nice tea party with the 50 probes mining at your nat far away from all the cannons!

I assure you the wall is completely tight.

Mmmm I don't know, I think something this game-breaking (or map-breaking, rather) needs to be in general.

That's awesome!

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.

You know, this is funny and all, but one day I'm gonna see it in an actual ladder match from someone who took your advice seriously.

And then I will thank you.

I don't understand why you can't just wall with 2 nexus's instead. Macro CC's are all the rage now, why not macro nexii that double as a wall-in?! Then you won't even need cannons to defend early aggression. Just attack with all the extra probes you have. GG!!

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

I love the that it takes only an absolute max of 50 probes to saturate the mineral line. So genius .

why not just try and wall off the low ground so that it covers some of your 3rds ramp? 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

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

This is absolutely incredible. I used to do something similar on Steppes of War which is probably why they removed it from the map pool.
