no yenku you just dont understand. 
just because 3 zlots at a choke can kill ~ 20 lings doesn't mean that zergling rushes are easy to defend against.
by the time they get their 6 lings to your base, your zlots will be done and unless they are hella fast and smart (no ling rusher is) they won't get too far or kill more than 1 probe. as you can see, the ling rush is impossible, and therefore toss has a great advantage on island.

You are aware that I was saying that it is easy to defend from ling rushes. The only time it would be remotely hard is on a map like bloodbath. Even on that map, by the time they are in your base you have at least a zealot and you can easily micro with probes to kill lings, then they are farked for a stupid b/o cause then you can pump zeals and press.
I can't believe that you made me have to explain that..

Zergling Rushes are usually very unsuccessful unless your opponent have no units to defend against it. I find Zealot Rushes more reliable and dependable upon.

Your also ignorant of the fact that playing on a non-money map is the way to go and that you can mass any protoss units you want on a money map.
I won using temps and cannons vs 4 people. I needed SOMETHING to destroy the buildings or else the newbs would have stayed and been queers. Hightemps by the way.

F.Y.I, there is only one type of rush that works and this rush only works in a perfect situation...
TvZ
If the Zerg player decides to expand to his natural, get gas and THEN go for a pool (Due to poor scouting, they couldn't see your build order) then a Terran player might be able to squeeze in a bunker rush (Assuming the natural doesn't serve as a choke for your main). This is the only type of rush that actually works against a good player, and it only works in that exact situation. Anyone who loses to another type of rush deserves to be crucified...

if anyone here didnt realize that was sarcasm...>.<
and yes...the last time i saw a successful rush was probably a year or two ago.
and yenku...cannons and temps? i applaud.
i have a rep of me killing my friend with cannons and corsairs. Only. and i told him thats all i'd use before the match, so it's not like he had to 'adapt to a new strategy'.
all he woulda needed was, say, 1 or 2 reavers...
0.
. and the fact that i told myself "aiight...slow as possible this game.....dont even look at ur other expansions".... apm of 71...i still won very very sadly. funny rep. But like i was saying....i didnt mean that seriously...lings....un-upped lings cant kill a damn thing.

hehe...note how i said "un-upped".
3/3 speed adrenaling is like an uber shock troop...
and in ZvZ...muta/speedling is usually doable. Just everyone follows the same gay build order, so I mass hydra and wonder why i lost

Still, Pyscho names his god damned lings.. I cant stop thinking about this one game I think me vs exobyte PvZ and I killed a group of lings and he said some thing like, "OH NO PATRICK FREDDY MIKE AN JULIA" lol, totally just an example, not nearly exact words, although i could find them...
