Good questions. As a terran player, you always have to be harassing or attacking before your opponent. If you want to expand, you put pressure out while you secure your expansion. If your opponent goes the same build, you see what he has then counter it. You should scan like a minute before you attack. If you see that hes going the same build, you check if hes going cloak(if he does get a raven ASAP) if he doesnt, get a viking. Its all about reaction and what need to do against certain things. I usually win more with doing initial damage getting natural and doing a elevator drop to finish with vikings
Thanks for your response. If you have a chance to throw up a few more replays of this build that would be great. Its helpful to see how a better player uses this build against different openings and in different situations, etc.
i've posted one up against me versus viledomorin, a grandmaster... but i messed up in this build and forgot to get my reactor which is a must and please dont forget the reactor on the barracks after u get ur factory! and good luck
Thanks a lot! This build has actually made me stop being scared of TvT on ladder. Working well for me in Plat league. Rush cloak banshees seem like an instant loss against this if u scout it correctly.
Nice post, I'm going to test this on ladder!
ReplyDeletethis is a really good build but it fails sometimes... and its kinda hard to transition after it... should i just send me scvs and make it and all in?
ReplyDeletethis works actually a lot better vs zerg than terran
ReplyDeleteyea, it also works against zerg.
ReplyDeleteBut currently this is my main strat against terranm and its gold to me. My tvt is like atleast 80%
@Dizon - do you usually win on the initial push or are you usually winning in longer, macro style games after doing some damage?
ReplyDeleteTried this two times, worked very well, but what if my opponent goes this same build.
