I 6 scout so that
1) My opponent thinks I'm proxy-ing
2) I scout in time to choose to wall off/ take gas

Don't care about my econ

Similar to IrisAnother, against a random, I find that safe openers are the best bet.
I usually go for a standard opener with 2 or 3 gates all close by my nexus to reduce travelling time and get the few extra minerals.
Scout off the 9 pylon, and react from there depending on race. The 2nd pylon is best near your ramp in case you scout a rush so you can block the ramp easier.

9 scout,

Vs Terran, 4 gate blink robo
Vs Protoss 4 gate
Vs Zerg, Pylon block > 4 gate

Problem?

Nope no problem at all !

[SLCN.CautioN]

Kill them.

[TheGentleman]

I scout on 9!

[QEDbourkes]

I go either 1 gate robo into 3 gate robo or 1 gate (9 scout) into either 1 gate tech, 3 gate tech, 1 gate fe or 3 gate expand depending what i scout

[FsDronesInJail]

Half the time I'm jst cbf and do ling bling roach all-in. No joke lol
I probably win 3/4 games vs random with this except protoss,,,, forcefield good unit QQ
DEM BANELINGS DONT STAND A CHANCE

[Fourby]

cRFourby has left the game!

[Ghosty]

I generally send out a worker scout at 10 supply on 4p maps, 12 supply on 2p maps

[breadfan]

1 rax FE, with CC inside my main to help wall off vs cheese.

[syfChadMann]

I like all the Terran and zerg comments - "oh I just do a safe opening I can do against all races and react after I scout"
... Protoss "oh, I just leave the game cause what ever I do is a coin flip and I'm usually fucked" OR "I just cheese him"

Quick Comments

	TAEdgE:	just proves you are complainers :)
	Ruski:	So true

14/14 vs terran isn't exactly viable.

plus protoss can just open forge.

1 gate opening with the ability to either expand or transition into 3 gate robo after scouting seems pretty versatile to me. Less than ideal against Zerg, but still safe and flexible, no? Of course this doesn't apply on maps like TDA where you can't hold a lot of builds, but in that circumstance you can pretty much get away with opening defensive 4 gate.

I could be totally wrong about all of this - it's just my limited understanding.

Quick Comments

syfChadMann:

yeah I agree - and that is what I do.. but I was simply commenting on all the protoss complaining about PvR.

[VB_Rhuubarb]

The worst when I was Protoss was vs Random on TDA... I just learnt to veto that...

As Terran I go 12 rax 13 gas in vT/P anyway, so if it's a Zerg I just go reactor hellion expand instead of 1 rax expand. I'll always scout with SCV that built the depot (at the wall).

[TN.Fitz]

I just 11/11 as Terran

[Fenner]

I leave the game instantly... Pointless playing vs random, never meet any in tournaments and you can't do any normal opener vs them.

Quick Comments

	Dox:	:(
	ProAnnn:	but but you are zerg! Pool hatch is always good!

[Zombie.]

I open with 1 Rax FE, and scouting after rax (if a two player map) or after depot (4 player map) then if zerg or terran I play with lots of marines and make them regret plauing radom, if protoss I hope/pray it's there off race otherwise it's GG WP :]

Quick Comments

ETL.ViTaL:

Same 1 Rax FE with quick scouting

[Zealo]

leave the game instantly is definitely best. i need those ladder points please.

[FaDe'Shampoo]

I usually scout a tiny bit earlier, dependin on the map ofcourse
