is it just me, or are people getting easier to rush?

whoever you were playing does not know how to play. XD
who goes all miners on short maps?
i would suggest miner arch btw if your opponent garrisons those miners and or manages to buy CA youll be slightly behind in eco. seeing as you wasted 425 over his 300 and stay for tower if you do this regardless also helps.
sword meatshield if you see the CA to harass. tech to spear to win being careful not to let the spear die when you have 3 archers and a spear.
statue+CA> spear+ 3 archers (if not stomping out unprotected miners). remember to micro

still, you shouldn't give up on the rush, it can be pretty good.

So, I started watching, then realised it was sword/archer vs miner/miner/miner and quit. Sorry, I can't watch a game like that...
Also, it's not people getting easier to rush; miner/miner/miner is what, 1600 or something? At 1800+, archer/miner and sword/archer will be the dominant starts - that's not a rush, that's supposed to happen. Also, sword/archer beats him even with CA. So, you'll end up with sword/sword/archer when he gets the CA. If he doesn't get the CA by then, well, he's screwed. If he *does* get the CA, you'd have seen it, and had your 3rd miner out already - you *should* be getting that out. Tower gives you 4.5 miners, so you actually have an equal economy (not behind - pum, because he garrisoned miners so he couldn't stream miners), and have another miner coming out. So you'll actually be somewhat ahead in a way, with an army.
