the probe reach my base before the timing of my supply depot (blistering sands)

be careful for baneling if u use depot on the ramp.

lol toss don't have banelings
i just wanna know how you guys will deal with this kind of situation?

bunkear near my mineral line so he cant move his cannon forward

well, it doesnt hurt to run around the base once after u put ur supply depot. and they can only cheese you in 1v1 map...

after supply depot is up, u will know if they come in onot. and when you scout, if enemy base is lacking of infrastructures, you know something cheesy is up...

cannon rush by hiding probe early in the game?
always use ur scv spin a round near ur base before sending it out to scout. if see pylon building, sent 4 scv to kill the pylon. always aim the pylon asap. if he try another pylon sent another 4 scv to kill it.

If he built it far that u cant see, he will need time to slowly push those cannon to you. Just do the 3 barracks built and by the time you have 2 rauders and few rines you can take out the cannon easily and then charge in and feed the cheese back to him if he didnt leave already.

btw, blistering sand for tvp if you see his base no gateway, must scout the bush near the 2nd entrance for proxy, 2 proxy gateway with zealots if scouted late is deadly >.>

just a 2 cents from noob

well thanks for the advise guys...i guess my flaw here is too slack in the early game (meaning from the first sec till rax....didn't scout enough IN my base....)

Happen to me once, didn't scout my base and learn from that. Get a couple of rax, he would not have much force due to the canon rush, get some Marines and Marauders and get em and your buildings to the toss base, took the toss base and you're good to go again.

for ur addition information, if u vs zerg.

if i am playing as terran in 1v1, i will replace my walling system by barrack & factory.

oh ya, do u know who actually i am?

lol basically that's what i did, only thing is i run my CC to my natural and rebuild from there and have my units defend from his cannon advance and the choke points...then attack when i have enough forces, quite lucky though the opponent isn't that good as well

Added on November 26, 2010, 2:00 pmlol but the early walling definitely needed a depot

hmm....in another forum (cari.com.my) there is a user with a similar name, same person?

remember scout for his base too, if u saw a probe is walking in ur base.
let a scv go after him, at least u will know if he going to plant canon.
or else u may build bunker nearby ur base as wat the frend mentioned in previous post.

ya i have no problem following probes when i saw one, but the one that come from the very first sec, needs extra effort to run around my base (since i am not even starting to build my depot, and the probe already chilling in the corner of my base ==) to spot it...so i guess needs to work on it a bit

ya have to scout every few minutes

Polt timing attack really great. PDD and Banshee is awesome. I guess I need to improve my APM for me to control well marine,tank,banshee and raven.

I'm a bronze player but keep getting platinum and gold player. Luckily I still manage to get winning % more than losing %. Need to thank my 'SIEGE TANK' from keeping me in this game

HT comes out not that late ..but timing I not sure yet..have to figure it out.
I mean whats the timing for normal 2 gateway ..go HT rather than transition to colo. Should not be that far off rite.

Storm is a bonus. HT is to take out the PDD by feedback. Then banshee uncloak dead fish.
If banshee cloaked, then PS should be ready. Just storm the banshees lo..but risky since no obs as robo built is abandoned.
Just theorycrafting... correct me if I am wrong lo.

p.s I dont play toss.

hmm i can't seem to win on Scrap Station lol, mostly due to unsure of whenis the correct timing to attack (long walking distance+scared the drop,air harass)....any tips on this?

Want to read about the emperor of terran aka salyer_boxer?

got this fron battle.net forum

haha..I like Scrap station..cause..I'll just

"long walking distance+scared the drop,air harass" my opponent. The answer my friend is in your question.

Just do what you are scared to face...

Toss: 2gate Robo
Terran:111 quick drop
Zerg: Air harras

my 2 cents

thanks, i am terran, so i guess 111 drop is the way then

by quick drop, meaning only rax unit? follow by tanks and other stuffs? or there's other composition which is more effective?

scrap station is my worst map against zerg. but u almost must do 1-1-1 with drops. what i like recently is to float my factory to the hidden space at his natural expansion, u will noe wat i mean and mass helions there. then mass drop with infantries. marauder to snipe tech structure and rines to kill drone and queen. till he fed up and deadly push you, a few tank + bunker to guard your ramp. but i always lose to an even zerg on scrap station.

something about polt timing is, protoss almost 90% will go gate robo build against terran cuz scared clock banshee. and polt timing rapes gate robo build.

and about the early cannon rush, bro, u send your scv to build supply depot at ramp at 9 food right? den ur 10th food run around ur base once. thats more than enuf. and dun tell me u have other better things to do in the 1st 2 minutes of the game. instead of spamming sssssssss go run 1 round den only go scout enemy.
