[MikhailBortsov]

hey, a note from silver:) if you're about to lose your overlord start building another one;)

[Hunter00Lahti]

platinum is actually the most valuable of them all ya know

[nbapoupas]

This is america ladder right? cuz if this zerg is plat i should be master, i got my promotion to diamond few days ago but when i was in plat there wasn't this kind of play this is so bad playing from both toss and zerg. 11 pool and then no dmg made.

I am Silver, and i am not sure why this is Platnium. I going in with the zerglings and Overlords too. I just choose a other techway, not at infestors just roach or roach hydra. my macro normally is as good as well but my enemies dont let me macroed. Pushed early like 4gate or going on air or somethings else.

I want to be Platnium Bilzzard!!!

@246trinitrotoluene It's an old build, it's an 11 overpool into 18/19 hatch. It could be to scare off an FFE, but it's also a good way to expand without getting blocked by pylons or anything.

[Myoldnamesdontwork]

platinum worth more than silver but a little less than gold to my understanding. if u look at periodic table ag (silver) is definitely a lvl lower while ag (gold) has more mass than platinum. but i was thinking more of jewelry when they say silver, gold, diamond. maybe they should have jade, ruby, sapphire and stuff?

[246trinitrotoluene]

I think the early pool is to scare away FFE builds, as protoss will be more reluctant. Psy starcraft was the first person I saw it from, and I've had decent success with it.

If he still manages to get up his cannons/expo, you'll have earlier queens and map control, so it never hurts... also you wont get cannoned at your natural.
