Okay, so I just played a Terran on this stupid desert map and I decided I'd cheese him with my Protoss. Little did I know there was a Command Centre flying straight over to my base while I was doing this. I built the 2 Rax outside his base(didn't scout with my probe after I made them because I'm an idiot.) I see his 6 SCV's come to my base with a Command centre and I'm like, "Lol. Free win :-)." BUT INSTEAD THE WORST POSSIBLE THING HAPPENS.... HE SITS THE COMMAND CENTRE DOWN NEXT TO MY MAIN AND BUILDS THE TURRENT, SO BASICALLY ALL MY BASE DIES AND I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH GOLD TO EXPO BECAUSE I'M BUSY BUILDING 4 ZEALOTS@HIS BASE TO CHEESE ^^....................... I must be the worst player ever..lol.

MORAL OF THE STORY: DOn'T CHEESE.

What is this I dont even No seriously, what? This is about as incoherent as it gets.
|
rofl, this strategy is so awesome :D Image doesnt work
|
Sir, I've read your post and watched your pic. Though I am still confused as to what has happened here there is no need to further explain things, just stay away from the crack
Best regards

I did something similar against this, except it worked.....
I went for the mass PF rush instead (looks a lot like a 1 rax FE until 4 PFs drop in his base), he went for the fast PF rush. I just had some SCVs walking around, preventing his CC from landing..... I didn't even need my own PFs.....
Seriously, it's not hard to stop..... some micro and you'd be fine.....
|
Moral of the story: Lay off the crack and put 1 probe below the command center, so it can't land.

Truth, planetary fortress rush gets owned by 1 Proberto
|
i guess i came late, the post makes sense to me. i am lucky enough that i can beat that when scout any enemy base and see nothing i assume cheese, even if the main is there.
|
Wish, you and your star-sense.....
1 probe to block the landing, a few to chase around his scvs, and then you rush to mothership and humiliate him..... What's so hard about that?
|
|
come on, this strategy was popular for about a week in early beta then people realized you can put a unit under the cc
|
So you "just played a terran", then you "built 2 rax near his base", then you made "4 zealots".
|
just have a probe sit under the command center and it won't be able to land.
|
lol this story makes no sense.

Wait you didn't know the Terran upgrade that allows barracks to warp in zealots?
Yeah just use probes to prevent the thing from landing
|
This strategy was done early in beta, and isn't done anymore because its so easy to counter. (unless of course you never seen it)

You forgot he didnt have enough gold.. the third resource.

I remember the first time I got planetary fortress rushed...
