this is SEA /sigh
u should see 2s 3s and 4s there's proxies all over the map...
*
What does 2s 3s 4s means?

Proxy means easy game and it's tempting to do it.. I tried won a few games within 5 mins with cannon rush

I think without a 2nd or 3rd base it's impossible to support that high production of raven anyway

The time to build reactor is rather long, sometimes I rather triple barrack just pump in pure marines...

Well, I mixed abit of marauder so the reactor was important. Though I do find myself defenseless for the first 4-5 mins
*
Marauder is from tech lab =), usually terran are quite defenseless at initial stage, once they have like 1 or 2 marauders and few marines they are good to go, sometimes pure marine do wonder too (not 1v1 game)


QUOTE(ROTiJOHN @ Sep 7 2010, 11:14 AM)
the best to counter banshee is to constantly scan enemy base. if there is less building there, then it is very suspicious wahah
*
A scan = a mule = 300+ mineral harvested with it
Use it wisely, you can scout by other method I think, and it's wisely to save it for some unexpected invisible unit harass.

Terran being defenseless at initial stage? I dont think so. The ability to barricade their ramp is sufficient time to wait for marines to come out. The ability to repair their structures to buy time is another huge advantage to terrans. 2 marines shooting behind a wall will stop a bunch of zerglings and zealots from initial attack.

Its worth while to invest the 1st scan into your opponents base to find out what their plan exactly is. constantly watching them is good because you need to understand that the mule is added advantage in economy where they are still going at normal mining rate (protoss n zerg). Knowing their move and countering is deadlier. For example an early fast expansion scouted, send your marines and marauders in and head for it. Let it construct and then proceed to take it out. You have set them back 300-400minerals and that's worth 1 mule as well.

Engineering bay is something people often neglect, but its a +1 for marines and if you are massing marines and marauders, the value of +1atk upgrade increases significantly. Its also good to place a turret or two around your mineral line to prevent such harass by banshees or dark templar warp ins. And if you have used scan on opponents aggressively you would have spotted a banshee or mutalisk or void rays build early in which 2 turrets + couple of marines will be sufficient for early air harass.
*
1st scan always into enemy's base for me, because you wont wanna getting hellion tank rush while getting muta-ed

Engineering bay is a must for MM ball, marine as a good dps +1 is a lot..

last night played 1 game in desert oasis map. i play terran and my opponent is protoss. he drop a pylon down my mineral(because im at high hill) then come to my mineral field there drop another gateway and took both of my gas. i quickly build 2 barrack and build a bunker  near my mineral field after my barrack is done. spending a hard time to destroy his building and his zealot but he build few canon at my enterence. once i cleared all the cannon and pylon, i start rebuild my economy and army. when i have enough army(MMM+1tank), i scanned his base and saw the enterence full of cannon, i went to his mineral field and siege up my tank to atk his Assimilator. but after awhile, his dark templar reach my base and kill all my scv and my army is too far away from my base. then gg

question:anyone face this b4? is it correct for build 2 barrack to counter his gateway rush?i should no send all my army out? instead of atk, shud i better expand? thx
*
is dropping viable? Since terran has so much mobility using MMM

2 cannon at his mineral field, and field stalker and zealot moving around. and i have 2 Medivec in that time. with my skill, i think drop is not that usefull cause 8marine and 4 marauder cant do much dmg.. and the center the xelnaga is took over by his probe... but this strategy very impress me.. i ever see cannon rush but nvr see gateway rush like this one.. >.<

I'm interested to see the replay if you have it =)

crota maybe a little boring at first (my first time impression of him back then) but his cast is really high quality with all the info u need...
not to mention he cast A LOT of games...
*
His tone is not as interesting as Husky but he got many unique replay which many dont prossess

+2 for crota
