Theirs so many guides on rushing the poor volunteer titan, might as well make a guide on how to
stomp their fun and increase your ego.
If your not sure they're rushing or not but think they might be go Bubonicus or Glacious.
As Bubonicus:
Get your nuke and WW, very vital since they will probably zerg you in some way with minor hit and runs if you nuke them properly you can get bubonicus's group stun to hit, your disease is enough to do enough minor damage that it would punish their regen, get a minion if you pull your stun off and WW and instantly break it on the weakest builder you see for a crit, resulting in another minion.
If stun is missed go straight for WW and punish weakest member of their team, make sure you have Punishment center ready to punish throught out this entire phase incase you need to punish.
As Glacious: Get either 2 levels in nuke or nuke and WW.
With level 2 nuke: get punishment stick ready, nuke them when their in biggest grouping to punish all their movement as a group, rush up and hit them while ready to punish off any escapes. Your damaging poison and the slow from the nuke should be enough.
one nuke one WW: Nuke the biggest grouping, WW ahead of them, smack the one you expect to be easiest kill.
As any other titan with WW: get WW use it run away from mound, hotkey your punishment stick and wait for them to be brave and proceed with the game, they usually give up or try again and fail since you have took away their surprise.
As Demonicus: Get nuke and heal, if you spawn and see their about to come in on you, make a run AWAY from the mound, so in worst case scenario you can tele out. Hope its night and nuke befor melding, if they stay nearby and keep trying send out another nuke and you should be able to down one, abuse the fact that your nuke doesn't add any delay to your movement and is easy to use while moving resulting in nice kites if it comes to that.
As fossurious: Use the ultimate win tactic, sell ankh skill burrow and AFK at some wierd spot.

The fact that the titan can be rushed and easily killed at the start of the game if he doesnt know what hes doing shows just how weak the titan starts out. |

He just woke up after 500 years, of course he's not going to very powerful just then. As I take it, the titan is not a morning person. |

Any normal titan can't get rushed successfully because it's too easy to windwalk then focus on one person, after one person is down, you basically have x2 dmg and HP.

yep. the advantage of a rush is surprise and capability to disable via stuns. That's why taurens can rush easily. |

How to not get builder rush simplified:
Hit wind walk. If you can't, teleport your titan to the mound and then use it.

Since I'm a pubber, I've seen too many rushs, all failed, and honestly they won't work if the titan understands how to nuke. no one can avoid the first hit in a rush, and if they aren't fast enough they can't avoid the second. At that point they are 1 nuke away from death, which most titans are happy to comply.

I'm glad a joke guide gets another serious discussion.
But yea Bubos the easiest to pull off, crit from WW aoe nuke with no limits and a stun at the end of it.
