how fast zerg can come out 5 RR push?
*
i didnt usually follow the timer but if u start a roach warren not so long after ur pool is done u should get it out pretty fast (since u'll skip the speedling upgrade)
i think around 20food or so?

some ppl have the perception that zergling rush is considered cheesing...so weird while marine and zealot rush is nothing.
dunno where they get the idea from,

they thot u 6pooled LOL...

anyways i jz played zerg jz now...
the 5RR is insanely powerful...
if ur opponent goes anyhting other than a marauder, he is dead (even tank cant do much from jz now's gomtv invitationals... fruity's roach deal so much damage with tank shooting)...
4 range let u micro from marine's fire pretty easily...

prepare to see low league players spamming roach is imba threads (just like beta)

i have been losing like crazy today as protoss.
1. Almost all the Terrans i was playing with are using proxy 3 rack marine rush now. Damn hard to counter.

2. Almost all the Zerg player are spamming roach to wipe my stalkers.

My WLR now so low.. So sad.. Feel like killing myself now.

I was bored with terran. Warping in units seems so cool and after watch Regin's replays i decided to switch to a race i have never play b4. Seems like a good  idea at the time, i dunno what was i drinking..

Like what Aeco said, if you've live long enough to get it, that is. And you have to micro your HTs well, can't keep them in the same group or else they'll run ahead in front of everyone else. And it's not like they can do anything in front. >.>'

pls dont  icon_question.gif

should not same price with marauder...  sad.gif

why not be the same price as marauder?
it has more life, the same 1 armored, have speed/ burrow upgrades and higher damage vs non-armored...
the old 3 range was balanced around that price...

they are not underpowered as koreans used it alot...

Yes, it is pretty easy to with MMM on NA server. Even their best T player on NA server couldn't beat SEA's Protoss player nIrVana. You can always watch replays on youtube on SeLecT v nIrVaNa.

hmmm SeleCT jz beat NonY, Kiwikakii and HuK yesterday with MMM spam...
his MMM improved a lot especially his control and constant pressure...
i think if nirvana would to faced him again, select would roflstomp him...

no idea. hes been copy pastaing the same shit for 2 threads (possibly more? lol) already is all i know

hmmm i did heard my frens talking about it on skype quite a while back...
though they didnt mention any tournament (and i deleted the replay they sent to me)

but it seems that select only know MMM only to get roflstomped by idra with ease when he cant MMM against zerg...
no doubt his MMM sense and control is among the best i've seen with 3pronged drops (think ITR styled but better than ITR), army trading and constant pressure...
watching MLG DC loser's bracket to see him MMM like 9 games in a row vs nony (3-1), kiwi (2-1) and HuK (2-0) is really boring...
thank god HuK did the mothership rush (which is ruined by the retarded crowd for select to scan it before atking)...

An excerpt from Duskbin.Marksman's article on his views of the patch.

I personally play quite a bit of 2v2s with my friend, and the reapers were a big factor/strategy in terms of early game aggression. After the patch it's pretty much just mass marines or die to early aggression, without the capability of using reapers to harass while expanding early ourselves.

Though actually I think it's a welcoming patch to buff Zerg so we Terrans don't get yelled imba/OP all the time.
*
watch select's MLG DC vs toss (nony kiwi and huk)...
aggressive or not depends on how u play...
u dun need to proxy to be aggressive or during the 3-4 minute mark...

Didn't say I proxy right. I rarely proxy or I would've compained a lot about the supply depot before barracks. 11rax 12gas into reapers used to be good harassment without being too cheesy.

Early aggression can still be done very well with marines, but essentially removing reaper speed early on takes away a big part of Terran's early aggression play. Imagine speedlings requiring Lair.
*
the reaper speed is the problem, not the supply before rax (which i think should be reverted with the supply change as factory before speed is lame)...
u can see qxc vs idra where qxc still open with reapers and even bunkers etc which actually do deal damage...
the supply requirements does not kill off aggression as many claimed...
it does make it slower since u cant go 9gas 10rax 11supply anymore but that was insanely fast wit the proxy (faster than the first stalker, faster than the first set of lings)...

wut i said was "u dun need to proxy to be aggressive or during the 3-4 minute mark..."
which is the only thing affected by the supply before rax...
as we can see from MLG DC and day9's discussions with the pro players+wheat, the supply before rax doesnt really affect high lvl games...
even in gomtv team invi, clide did an early proxy rax as well (or was it clide's opponent... it was a TvT) even with the supply requirements...


Added on October 18, 2010, 1:26 pmbtw i think this change is due to the korean BaracksBunkerSupply build (double rax-> supply as well as artosis said in SOTG) where the faster OC can get mules to cover up on the lack of SCV...

uhhh dude I think we have a misunderstanding here lol. The early reaper that was taken away which I've mentioned is due to the speed upgrading being a factory requirement, not the supply depot before barracks change.

Speedless reapers is shit.
*
as i said tell that to QXC which opened with reapers (1-2 vs idra if u haven watch)...
early reapers without speed still deal damage to zerg's FE forcing commitment of larvae into lings...
people are still using reapers as we can see in MLG DC which is just yesterday...
people are not getting to abuse it unlike the past (speed reapers > roaches) etc...

thought they on headphones and shouldnt hear the crowd? lol

noise canceling was not that good...
u cant hear wut they say but u can definitely hear roars ETC...
refer to the video i posted...
even though HuK lost the game, he won so many frens (the HuK chanting when he was leaving the area etc)...

i honestly think the mothership rush is a good build for that map...
jinro lost in the GSL2 qualifiers to a toss that does that build...
wut more HuK chose such a map...

@ chiam
i still use reapers for 2v2, dun see wut is wrong wit it as u have ur partner to threaten the front while ur reaper(s) can sneak through the back...
reaper openings can allow u to transition to MM pretty smoothly for a timing push...
