Hm Statix, I hate to sound disparaging, but if your pool goes down at the same time whether you 6 drone scout or not you're definitely doing something wrong >.< 10 drone scout and 14/14 is perfectly normal against random.
ah yeah sorry forgot i was posting on forums, got to say every single word, cant imply that its pretty close to normal not more than 10 seconds difference. The point im trying to make really is that in my league not one single player has constantly probed up and at 8 mins im always ahead on drone count, what the 6 drone does (well its not really 6 cos i make a worker at start, send others to mine and may get another made before i send! . . he may return his 5 minerals) is make sure that you follow ur normal build and its in this us lower players can keep our consistency and our heads in the game.
its pretty poor to open a 15 hatch against a protoss on a gamble, ive been trying to get the 15 hatch lately working against p with different pool times . . .10pool seems to be quickest as for how much this damages econ well, im not noticing any major differences really. so yeah if you want to be sure i go 6-8. Most of the time they scout you anyway . .no need to send a drone 90% of time, ive noticed their scout gets to me before a 14 pool
