I know some of these depends on the map, but lets take it on a middle map, where its neither long nor short.
Which is the most ineffective opening strategy?

4 swords or 1 spearton

^Word. 4 Swords waste of Macro, and 1 Spear dies to all of the openings and leave you with one of the worst eco ever.
You might as well start all praying and get a Shadowarth if you get Spear... At least that can kill Archers...

there are even more noob starts, such as early ninja, early wall, and early albowtross

But we dont encounter them as often as the ones listed, right?
And it will take up quite a bit of space to list them all.
I forgot to add an 'other' option.

Even 3 sword start is useless, you know?

I would go for 1 spearton. When you see it, you know you won the game :P

The most ineffective opening would be trying to purchase Blazing Bolts and not training any units. I have yet to witness this level of stupidity.

I'll make a new alt and test it against a noob. It will be hilarious if I win.

I once tried an early magikill with just two miners, It failed horribly because the enemy just kept moving his damn archer out of the way of blast range.

Guys, I don't think the Spearton rush is the worse. Sure, I may have lost every time using the Spearton rush, but I was this close to beating my opponent.
My opinion would be 1 Miner and 1 Archidon. You're basically asking yourself to be put at the defensive position and forced to buy a Castle Archidon, because you have no meatshields.

Hey aiman, i thinks its a little inlogical to put 1 sword 2 miners, 1 archer 1 miner, 2 swords 1 miner as most ineffective
