This is an extraordinarily greedy build, very vulnerable to any attack that at one point is building 2 Command Centers at a time. However, a singular Battlecruiser is difficult for Zerg to deal with, and two Battlecruisers has the potential to destroy an unsuspecting Zerg opponent. In this game, game 4 of WCS NA Fall qualifiers, when MaSa opens up with this build and teleports into Scarlett's main, she taps out of the game immediately, giving you a sense of just how powerful continued Battlecruiser production with this build can be.
