Two VERY different situations in those 2 replays, you'll understand when you give them a look .
I'm starting to feel it's either my opponents are doing it wrong (paired with mistakes), or this is actually a good build to do.

Game 1 - Backwater Gulch
Your opponent 6-pooled you. You defended it, and won. His micro wasn't great, but your defense was good. Pretty standard, nothing much to see here.

Game 2 - Shakuras Plateau
Your opponent went 7 Pool Proxy Hatch Spine Crawler Rush into 1 Base Roach/Hydra with +1 Armour.

WHAT.

While 6 pool is a viable build on a lot of maps, whatever the hell this dude calls his build is - in my Platinum level opinion - not viable, at all, ever, on any map, unless his opponent is a blind Somalian child with polio. And no arms.
