Oooh. Time to try it out.
But think I'll most probably lose those stalkers when I try to do something at base and look back to them.
Either I lose them or I'll lost my void rays. tongue.gif

I'm still kinda slow at my micro and macro...

u dun really need high apm to do it...
i'm a 50-70apm average player and i can do it...

Mine is probably at 20-30. tongue.gif
I better open back a replay to see my average apm.
The only time I get to 60-80 is when I'm on high I think, that is when I feel a lot of blood pumping and my heart starts to beat real fast.
Don't really like the feeling, my hands are shaking after the game when that happens.

Hmm. I'm good at using the waypoint. Seldom use follow though. I'll try it out.
Hold position never used before for attacking. I only used it to lock my zealot in place not to let their zealots or zerglings in. tongue.gif
Probably going to lose all of them while I try this out haha.
But better to lose and learn.

You can try a few things out like click on probe, then B E for pylon, left click to place it then, shift right click back on your minerals.
That way your probe will go there place pylon and straight away go back to the mineral patch.

Can also just waypoint your scouting probe to all the starting locations.
Find the opponent already, waypoint your probe in circles and lastly back to base while you continue your macro at base. tongue.gif

Oh cool! gonna try that out. smile.gif
So basically that zealot would be just to eat damage until low on shield then swap with another to look up the ramp and snipe the wall.

Wow. Haha. Nice thing to try also. But its like suicide to warp in over the wall. Sounds dangerous.
Would be nice to warp in on the mineral line though. tongue.gif

Haha sounds good.
Hmm I'll try it out by building a pylon in front, then poke his back with void rays. If he go there to stop my void rays, I'll warp em in. biggrin.gif

Action Per Minute. It's how many clicks and commands you issue in a minute. Basically, the higher your APM = the more commands/orders you can issue out. Though SC2 is not really APM based compared to SC1

Just hotkey your voids and stalkers seperately. I always have my Nexus on 1, army on 2 and voids on 3. Move the void in, when they run back, tab to stalkers and harass buildings. Likely they won't repair. If they do, snipe the SCV and repeat. Its alright to lose 1 stalker now and then especially when you have your 2 base and colossi tech going. After that just amplify to 6 gate 1 robo 1 stargate. Feel free to throw down some voids to catch their buildings that try to run.

You can even stop production for voids after the first one. ALL you need is that void to pressure them cause if they pull back their army the front will push through. Smart players will divide the marines from the marauders and leave like 5 or 6 at the back.

VR does a great job to contain the terran and create some form of 'fear'...
but usually u can win right on the spot when u have the 2nd VR in ur army and u do a 2 pronged attack off 2 gate...
