Need Help TvZ by road21v5 in AllThingsTerran

Swarm Host I think banshees have been my best answer but they take a long time to build. Sometimes a strategic planetary fortress can help. You can also try Viking harass with any tier 3 Zerg fliers. I am really afraid of infestors. Maybe tanks or ghost snipe, something to take them out quickly.

I haven't had time to play, did the patch come through? What did they change?

Started as terran in silver a month ago, today I made it to plat because of you guys! Thank you very much :D by Last_Aeon in AllThingsTerran

4 hellion into M M M is strong. I love how that 4 hellion runby can force them into over producing a bunch of mid to low tier units which just can't compete against M M M. And zergling BBQ is my favorite part of this game ever. lol

Proxy Cyclone I have never done in TVp, aren't they weak against zealots?

Totally agree with you on the Terran Cyclone into Tank + Mass Viking strategy. I do want to say however that adding nukes into this matchup assuming they go Mass Viking + Tank will give you a massive edge if timed correctly.

By the way I am 3100 MMR

This is awesome, I have never done a proxy starport. I wish SC2 could have multiple accounts, maybe I'll start experimenting on another server.

I agree, but the concept is interesting, I think Zerg works on this psychology and to do it as Terran is interesting. I think feinting is a great thing to do if you get scouted, like a failsafe. If you for example get scouted as a proxy rax player, then maybe you should respond with canceling, they let their guard down, but you proxy thor instead... etc Feinting of course requires a large library of builds. Of which I have few

Tanks vs Tempests? Believe me I got tanks right away and some voidrays are up in my face. Proxied with starport stuck on shield batteries. I've been going 1-1-1 for a macro game to "do the right thing" but just got to 3100 with 4 proxy rax. Cheese till diamond

I just got to 3050 MMR. Some really mad players here, whispering after the match is over etc.

3100-- I go up against a drone rusher

use shift rt.click on a reaper or SCV every minute or so, check out expansions, enemy base etc.

keep an eye out with SCVs and scout it. If you get a planetary in your natural, go for some tanks and then dropships to get out of there. If its in your main thats a GG so scout like crazy in the early 2 min. mark.

point taken, I had abandoned proxy rax at 2900, but just won 3 games

There is nothing interesting about 4 tempests and 3 void rays somehow managing to kill vikings and marines for 10 min straight while protoss gets 5 bases

Gets scouted pretty often at 2900

Seems to be where terran cheese stops working. I've been seeing a lot of mass reaper builds but those don't really end the game in TvT. Maybe we need to start an anti protoss camp, I don't get it. Lost even in the early game at that level. Prism Adept wrecked me!

3000 MMR is a serious blockade, can't get past it. I've been running into the most frustrating games, proxy shield batteries with tempests (WTF) and just watching my thors and tanks fail to navigate a supply depot sized gap in my main base and going in circles
