I, too, don't see the necessity of an urgent rush in 2v2. I'm speaking as a masters 2v2 player, but then again that doesn't say much.

And besides, why are you getting bronze teammates anyway?

well im sure you know that once the player leaves that player left is now getting double minerals which he can use to jump to 2nd-3rd teir units/ mass them up asap and get upgrades within minutes and or he could mass 1 first tier unit that could overwhelm your base withing minutes of the game starting ie: Mass Rines Mass, Mass Speed Lings, Mass Lots

just play the extra base


I used to 1v2 for fun, and I can tell you that rushing against competent opponents won't work. Better off out-multitasking them


ofc if you play in gold league then just rush, sure



But 1v2 I can have 8g 2base blink stalker by 6:30 ish

if you 2v1 rush them your bound to pick off 1 of there 2-3 bases plus if there's two people rushing in one can deal with the army the other can pick off harvesters

and if you went to try to mass counter, you run the risk of losing both your armys ( even if you take out most his army he will regenerate it much faster then you)

rushing in 2v2 is more than viable... almost required in some of the matchups... usually pvz mirror = rush lings and bstalkers for example. going macro = you die.


certain matchups certainly require not rushing though...but i see team games as games that require early pressure.

you blame your teammate for everything when you're probably pretty bad yourself.

when i played fresh mmr 2s with newbs, i just killed the other team 2v1 easily. after about 7 games, im no longer playing with shitters...usually with high diamond at least. usually end up carrying that person anyway.




playing 1s makes you far more dangerous in 2s tbh... actually 1s are really the only thing that actually improve your skills in this game.
