He did it to me, I BM'd the shit out of him and still won.

Conclusion? BM makes me win. Expect more of it.

Yeah Grim I blame blizzard mostly, as i wrote in the blog

And yeah Chad it works on every single blizzard map even if you pool first. Blizzard decided to nerf the drone stacking to get out of it because they genuinely think that the zerg having to patrol a drone there and lose 100minerals of mining helps balance the game >.<

Tournaments have universally agreed this is stupid, not sure why Blizzard are dragging the chain. Oh wait I know, it's like how they took OVER A YEAR to remove close-spawn shattered and metal.

Bahaha, greenmonkey did it to me too. Personally I don't really have anything against people doing it while the opportunity is there (I may or may not have abused gold bases on ladder myself...) - if you're just laddering for fun, why not? It's a good strategy. It is certainly frustrating if you're trying to use ladder as tournament practice, however.

that's funny, cause all players have a choice to not do it and play a real game instead.

its kinda gay without the pylon block since its easy to 15 hatch if u cant 3 pylon block

Shieldz · Wed, 13th-Jun-2012, 1:39 PM

but some people even do 3 pylon block when people do 14 pool..

Not True, cannon rush behind minerals is arguably just as effective and more effective on some maps vs hatch first.

I just go tgun style and nydus that kids main when someone does it to me, personally.

nvm - Don't be gay protoss brothers..
play a proper game.

Disadvantage of behind-the-minerals cannons is that the zerg can just take two other hatcheries and play (pretty much) as usual... the pylon block forces you to either pull some kind of weird 1base nydus/muta play, or break out immediately.

Go **** yourself Blizz LOL

I rarely vs this on NA, never on SEA but on KR i vs it maybe 1 in 8 games vs protoss, and I only face protoss so this is at LEAST twice a day. It is so obnoxious and stupid, 'zerg is ment to be 1 base ahead' they say, well lets put ******* 600 minerals there and force you to all in or be 2 minutes behind.
