I wouldn't consider Starcraft a "rush based" game.

Depends how he defines "rush"

By "rush", you're thinking a sacrificial opening manouver that sacrifice development to build early units to try and surprise the enemy and hope for an early win.

By "rush", he may just means a fast paced game...

Most RTS are rather slow, and some, it takes like at least 1/2hr until you're in any position to attack at all. Compared to them, starcraft in a whole, is a rush. (I personally hate really slow RTS... i will never want to play a game that takes like 5hrs... what a waste of time + i generally have to leave before finishing + what's the fun of sitting there watching nothing happening...)


ZiNgA BuRgA Wrote:Sure, you generally should attack early, but if you commit all your efforts early on, you'll definitely loose to a more experienced player.  Since the 1.09 patch, the famous 6 zergling rush is also much more difficult to do...

Depends on how early u class early.

If u try to 4pool someone, then yeah, if you do not succeed the rush, then you'll be severely under-developed, and any counterattack will most likely finish the game.

But if you use a "safer" rush, that does not leave you too behind... and if it's not high level play, u can easily recover.
