So ive been playing for a while and have been crawling up the ladder (gold league atm). When i started vs protoss i always used to 15 hatchery into 15 pool and i would get cannonrushed at my natural probably around 70% of the games. I asked on some streams and they told me to go 14 pool into 15 hatch so i do that now and it does seem to work a lot better but i still often have to cancel the hatch. When asking around on streams they all just say to stop being so greedy, but i think they fail to look at it from my level of play.

Any advice? Should i be pulling drones? what are times i should be scouting for it? Any suspicious behavior i can look for?

2 drones is enough to prevent a cannon rush, 1 drone follows the probe, the other one blocks the most obvious spot for the cannon.

If they commit more than 2 buildings then cancelling the hatch is more benificial for you.

A good way of spotting cannon rush is to patrol the overlord across natural exp, that way it covers a larger area but doesnt cost you any additional effort.

if see cannon-rush
cancel hatch at your natural
and build one at protoss 3e, and release da swarmhost from there!

is it worth sending the initial overlord there? Or is the 9 supply ovi fast enough?

can't you just fuck off?

not whit you, only whit women!
ask someone else to bend over for you!

I can imagine how many women have you touched.

stop asking about my love-life.
find your boyfrend somewhere else.

tommy can you write me a sex guide?

9supply overlord is there in time.
send the first one out to his base, keep the second above your nat.
if he cannonrushes, pull probes
