It might work in bronze, silver and maybe even gold, but higher than that every player knows how to scout and detect your proxy before it can do any damage. This is why most good players don't even try it. The players you beat with that are the players you would kill easily anyways. | |

I imagine when I get reranked that I'll be in Gold or hopefully Platinum soon. It works because by the time the enemy realizes what's happening, it's often too late (I can use the back door, so guarding the front entrance isn't good enough). In one game my opponent just scouted the back door when my zealots were munching on it - but it was too late for him to build defenses. I want to see a good replay of this strategy beaten. | |

Every at least decent player will scout for proxys in every possible location and immedatly build a lot of defense if he doesn't see a warpgate in your base around 13 food or if he sees you cutting workers. | |
