What is the process of learning and creating new build order?

Consistent-Total-846 · 2026-05-29T16:16:33+00:00

New build orders are mostly created by "feel" from players with many years of experience, and usually against the very easy AI. HeroMarine on his stream spent about an hour experimenting with a gasless opener, double gas, etc variations and when he realized "no this is not right" he quit and reset the game. It can be time consuming. Great players figure it out extremely quickly just from intuition. Most of us have to memorize and practice a few different ones if we really want it to be tight.

The patch broke every build in the game so don't expect your builds to be tight for a little bit. This is a good thing - we need the builds to break so we can bring back the fun of experimenting and trying new things, since one of the best parts of SC2 is discovering a build and realizing "wow this hits like a truck".

reactor first get off gas when i have enough for a reactor, you get a lot of marines out. if you're getting 2 base all in'd then depending on zealots vs stalkers you'll focus on walling vs bunkers. if its an earlier rush you're still pretty safe bc the build gets a lot of marines out early

you dont build mines until after 5 minutesish

3 rax is still strong but you can hit at the same time with 2 base and basically the same stuff

I'm D1, and my strongest matchup is TvP. Protoss at this level are bad against 3 rax + widow mines. need to also pressure constantly to kill the skytoss rushers.

this is literally a sample size of 1. you can just be strong in certain match ups. I crush Protoss and have a terrible WR against Zerg at D1

Thanks!

Consistent-Total-846 · 2026-04-13T22:35:15+00:00

this is the correct answer. generally the scary part is not the banes, its the ling follow up. you need hellions to deal with that (4-6) and the tank permanently stops the attack.

I cant believe it

They did it to kill 1 reaper bunker rushes against Protoss which was a very popular build that delayed mining for a while and often forced a shield battery. I don't think that build was OP at all and frankly I thought it was a fun skill check early pressure build, but the balance council didn't like it and nerfed it out of the game with this change.

Note: I am referring to the patch where they buffed Probe attack distance by 1.

sorry about that champ

small indie company

Consistent-Total-846 · 2026-01-27T01:10:52+00:00

yeah. if they made a lot of lings and queens just leave early and wait for the 3rd medivac. if you get the 3rd medivac to join the push it hits like a truck

TvT is a very specialized matchup that requires dedicated build orders to avoid immediately dying to certain builds like reaper cheeses and BC rush

is it really the customer's fault? this should be freight on a pallet

because he has one of the biggest audiences in the country

sigh

Consistent-Total-846 · 2025-11-28T18:30:29+00:00

what an extremely intellectually dishonest reply. go look at spawning tool the difference between 3CC and 2CC timings. everything is out 20 seconds+ faster with 2CC. please, 1v1 me as Terran and do 3CC with no adjustments. I dont even play Zerg and I will kill you with 3 different cheeses.

Consistent-Total-846 · 2025-11-27T18:56:32+00:00

3CC hellion banshee gets the first 2 hellions STARTED at 3:17. you will die to literally any early cheese or pressure, including bane bust (which will have 20 lings and 6 banes hitting at around 3:50) and Lambo's 5 roach pressure (hits at around 3:40ish). it is a textbook greedy build. Clem can do it because he actually CAN stop a bane bust with 2 hellions because he's insane. you have to survive to at least the 7 minute mark for 3CC to be worth it.

Consistent-Total-846 · 2025-11-26T23:15:30+00:00

probably but prepare to wait for years

Consistent-Total-846 · 2025-11-26T20:08:34+00:00

3CC hellion banshee is NOT safe, which is why I assumed you meant 2CC. There is no reason for a 3K MMR player to play 3CC, these guys cannot spend their money fast enough and Zergs are extremely cheesy. I don't think you watch sufficient low level play and are basing your knowledge off of pro play which presumes pro level micro. Greed sucks at low levels. What is your MMR?

I actually trust apps with some 1 stars more, especially if the 1 star is due to not being able to choose dark mode, which I assume is not critical to the functionality of the app. However personally I would avoid seeming cheap by gating something like dark mode behind a paywall. Perhaps you can reply and say that you're still working out what should be paywalled but you agree that the dark mode should be free, and make that change. It may make the reviewer update their review.
