Why would you think anyone would wallin with a tower? What could possibly be the most rational explanation to this fucking oddity in war2 strategy?

only thing i can think of is being in an extreme hurry for wall in asap; maybe the players who were watched by SYL performing this "wall in with towers" can give their word here.

Wow, is the concept of 'defence' for a dualer that hard for you to comprehend?

wall in with a guard tower can be effective, ok, but i think (i may be wrong of course) it is better wall in with a farm (for example) and build your guard tower inside your base.
anyway, maybe SYL was referring when a rusher break into his enemy´s base and he tries to re-wallin as he can.

wouldn't you rather protect your guard tower behind farms or something rather than have them at your wall ...

For example, I draw 9 on GoW and decide to dual 9/11. I would wall in with my rax @ 9 + mill @ 11. Instead of walling in with 3 farms (2 at 9, 1 more completing the wallin at 11) I would wall 9 in with 2 farms (I wouldn't wallin with a gt @ 9 b/c that leaves 3 spaces for his grunts to attack it, compared to only 2 at 11). Wall 11 in with a tower instead of another farm (which isn't needed that early and you could use the res to pump peons + up your gt's quicker, instead of waiting on that farm). When you get the res, start building grunts (no smith, mind you. I'm lusting at this point) and chop out + scout for OT's / Enemy)
It's just a faster dual which saves you a few seconds instead of being behind on res that early having too many farms. And Vio, if he attacks your gt, just rep it w/ 1-2 peons. He's not going to waste grunts hitting a dualer's gt anyway ..and if he does, Gg.
*It's just better resource management for the early game. Your not putting yourself too far ahead on farms you don't need.*

you should ask less about how to dual and more about how to stop them because dualing is so common now on f.

Genocide is horrible. I was smurfing under Dark[Link] and raped him badly. He was using his poser name PCSpeaker. It's funny because he isn't even half as good as Viperblade was. I have no clue why you'd want to pose as him anyways. When the game was over and done with he proceeded to bitch about his "New mouse and keyboard" that his girlfriend got him. He really is pathetic and should calm the fuck down with his arrogance. I bet his GF is a whore as well. gg thanks.
