This is a Strategy Lair exclusive by me, Z Man. (Fully tested today in diamond ranked games)
As of today, September 1st 2010, this 2v2 build has no counter. BEHOLD!! THE DROP STRAT! (someone PLEASE help me think of a better name!)
Step 1: Player 1 goes Zerg while the partner can choose pretty much any race you want. I recommend Protoss.
Step 2: After entering the game, Player 2 sends all probes to begin collecting minerals. Immediately after this, Player two surrenders from the game! Yes, that's right, player two must surrender.
Step 3: Using Player 2's added resource collection rate and initial 50 mineral balance, Player 1 drops a 25 second early spawning pool.
Step 4: Player 1 sends a massive Zergling rush to opponents base. Even if they have blocked off, which they most likely haven't considering the timing, they stand absolutely no chance.
Now you're probably wondering, "What about the player that dropped? Doesn't he get a loss for the match?" Nope! As long as the match is won, everyone who started the game gets a win.
The only downside to this strategy is that one player has to sit out of the match. Obviously it's not the most fun, but you will rack up the wins and greatly boost your score.
Good luck and let me know how it goes in the comments!
