I think I can...I think I can... Anyone want to try with me?

your style definitely stops your opponent from going for the mobi rush but not getting your wit space early on puts you at a disadvantage on later turns. nice try though. if you have a different strategy against P1 adorables i would love to test it with you if it works.

Losing one wit is much better than losing to the rush. I played game_taker with this defense and the turn 2 opening immediately puts a kink in the rush. Most other defenses cause other wit inefficiencies like moving your bonus wit runner and/or sniper toward your spawn and heavy. Losing 1 wit doesn't seem so bad. It's like p2 started with 7 wits instead of 8. I think the biggest downside is that it gives away your exact position for turn 2 and 4.
