I'm really picking up a newbie trend here. Ok...they rush with lings....it fails...then they go hardcore sunkens. I got some pics last night of the biggest Toss turtle I have ever seen. Trust me they are worth a laugh (I think I'm gonna write a BR on them). If you or anybody wants em...give me your e-mail addy and I'll send em out pronto. I also have another great sunkencraft pic of my own...along with some other funny ones. These BR's rock...I was waiting to see when you were going to write another one. Keep em coming. I think they gave you a 6, because all three games were kinda the same (Different newbies....same logic shared by all of them :) )
THE ONE/TWO PUNCH OF A ZERG NEWBIE:
-6ling rush
-Build sunkens till your main is dry (While not expanding). |

| Hehe, great BR! You're DA MAN!!! I played a turbo zerg too, he tried to contain me with lings, that was funny:) Well anyways I get a bunch of M&Ms and 3 tanx and start to rape his base, he leaves. Today I played a terran/terran on orbital death, he was a newbie too. At the start he told me no rush for 30 minutes, promise me u wont rush. So I say I promise. Anyways I stop his early exp with a tank and 3 wraths, then I expand get nukes/BCs and rape him. Before he leaves he tells me I'm the biggest dick eating asshole he ever played:) |

| Wait a sec, what did Zerg newbies do before 1.04?? When I was a Zerg newbie, I would just Hydra rush...we didn't have these newfangled Sunkens back then. :D |
| #6 GhOsT~lizard[2302] |
|
| Oh yeah in that terran/terran game he told me "you must use a hack to build that fast" when he saw my wraiths. I tell him "just cuz u suck don't mean i hack" he responds by saying "hey you gotta tell me where you got it, I wanna dl it too!" That was hilarious:) |

| People need to learn EVEN an SCV can kill a zergling. The Zergling rush oonly works against guys that suck. I remember the first time I got hurt by it, it was back in vanilla, about 4 days after the game came out. Since then, I have not lost to that trick, most average players don't. Good BR! |

Twip, before 1.04, they just died if their zergling rush failed. :) Back when the 5 minute rule was around they would quit.
The newfangled sunkens might actually be a curse. Sometimes they seem like a Zerg Photon Cannon that doesn't hit air. And we all know how much newbies like Photon Cannons. |

| Yeah, zergling rushes are just meant to see what the opponent's doing and get some peons while they're at it. The only zergling rush that does anything but that against a good player is the 4pool on a small map, but I don't need to tell you that that's cheese. |

Any good player should be able to stop a 4 pool rush, especially if they know its coming (like on blood bath). Anyone who goes down to a 6 pool rush deserves it. Athough you are obviously a decent player Bob, there are to many people who say rushes are 'cheese' just cause they don't know how to defend against them. They are behaving just like 'no rush' newbies. Rushing is a valid tactic. If rushes are 'cheese' then you might as well complain that using a drop to get around defense is 'cheese' too.

| I'm not saying I can't defend a 4pool, I'm saying it can catch you of guard, and even though you can probably put it down, it'll cost you most of your peons. When I join a game on BB (well, if I ever do) I'll sure as hell get some defense up. But if I'm looking foward to a nice game, I'll probably not have defense till the time a 6pool would come. And I never said rushes are cheese. I said 4pool is cheese. I figure that you can tell a strat is cheese if winning with it makes you feel like a jerk (hell, everyone has at least tried the 4pool). |

Aidan, check out my first three newbieland reports - they all had no pics and all got 8's. ;)
It seems the lower my BR ratings get the higher the number of comments I get. Perhaps I shall write a 1.0 battle report. |
