Default Re: Turtlers and Rushers?

Of course at some point you have to decide when to stop being just defensive. I forgot to mention the mix style I call "bursting dam". Defensive growth of a major army and when the other guy reachs you all worn out from fighting his way to you, then you burst forth like a wave of water going as far and fast as you can before wearing yourself out. Then tax to the max and buildup fast for the return strike from them. Sometimes using heavy purchase of PD near him for a buffer. Its also a favorite tactic for people who consider themselves "defensive but dont piss me off" revenge-style players.
