How is it that I can be cutter and the unsc take map control all nodes everything, by 6 minutes with air, and infantry units and lose to a colony player with his captain and his super unit with skitters… don’t understand… build scarab and you win with that shield y ability.
Scarab at 6:00? Shouldn’t you have scouted that? Also isn’t that impossible?

I’ve never seen one at 6 either. People who complain sure love to exaggerate.
I’m guessing this is the game.
The scarab popped up at almost 10 minute mark. He had nothing but a few grunts and skitterers, don’t really know what you were doing that whole game.
Sounds like instead of going for map control, you should have just scouted and killed off his base for the win.

Those kind of players get rushed then come here to complain lol.

Not if you’re in skirmish.
I’ve never built a Scarab outside of 9999 starting supply and power skirmish within the first few minutes, though.
That’s probably impossible.

Scout, counter, then pressure. Especially if he’s putting all of those early game resources into a single unit the victory should be EZ.
like how this forum has gotten so positive. i took map control at 6 his scarab was at 8 which is possible because iv done it. and i am not complaining about getting rushed. i have no problem countering rushes just not a scarab at 8. i guess your right should have scouted more and should have attacked earlier. but still scarab at 8 mins is really hard to beat after its dropped.

ops guess you were right at 9:45 or whatever. like i said took map control. could be that i took a second base instead of pressing him. i wasnt asking for negative comments, more like suggestions. but i didnt realize the time he produced it on my original post

To be fair your original post seemed more like a rant than asking for advice.
But anyways, I’d just suggest what e everyone else said, if you scout his base and see he has little to no units, I’d push in to flatten him.

Learn Scouting! Someone who wants to build a Scarab at the 8min mark has no units and many supply pads and generators (3x). Destroy his war council before the 8min mark is reached. He will be easy to destroy, as he has almost no units.
I’m guessing you let the hunter captain taunt all your units, which would explain why your air lost to such few units.

Wasn’t trying to be negative about it, just wanted to be clear on the specifics of the match. I can gladly help you if you need help with a particular topic.
When I see a guy locking himself up I’ll try to hit him up with rush units (jump brutes or flamers) before he builds a third turret. And I’m talking double rax or camp, if he has more than two turrets it’s going to be a bit more difficult.

I played with a guy who got a scarab in 8:00 minutes, but that is because i was covering him most of the time. I have never heard of someone getting it at 6:00 minutes, that is insane.

Don’t really think it’s possible in 1v1…but you never know
