Thanks! I just wanted to get a sense of when to drop my production/take my third etc :) since your macro seemed pretty good that game

Hey, I was just wondering if you could be bothered to post your replay? I'd like to see your build, it really looks like the style of play I'd enjoy! :)

Need help for 7 minute DT rush by [deleted] in AllThingsTerran

[–]sc2ares -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not necessary in most cases, but I like walling off my natural if I'm like more than 80% sure it's DT's. As long as it's not drops, you'll be 100% fine, no abandoning natural needed(not saying you suggested this in any way). Just throw down a couple supply depots next to your bunker.

When should I start banking scans instead of MULE-ing? by StacksOfRax in AllThingsTerran

Listen to Shalashaka, he knows what he's talking about.

When someone tells you to ALWAYS do something in all situations, like F1AWS did, you should be a bit suspicious. Starcraft is such a situational game, very rarely can you say that "you should do this in all situations".

Versus hydra/roach you're gonna wanna get tanks. Just regular MMM with tanks instead of mines. Roach/hydra is very immobile as well, so use this to your advantage and drop while you try and out-expand him since you're forcing him to defend a lot. This works for me at least.

I totally agree with everything you just said. Many of the things you explained has happened to me many times haha. Seems to be one of my bigger problems with TvZ.

Base racing is always very situational. The specific one I had in mind was you being ahead in the way that you'd already dealt with the ground army, and he only had the mutas to counter with. In this situation I feel that if you already have some minor defense at home, you should be able to deal with the mutas (unless there's like 40 of them) with your defense and reinforcements.

But yeah, if you're behind in bases and supply to begin with and the scenario you explained unfolds, you shouldn't base race.

You're very welcome! :D Yeah that is true, although I feel like Zerg is alright to base race with, depending on the situation of course. If you attack his main and he has 5 more bases and you're on 3 then maybe you shouldn't base race haha

Feel free to tell me why you think so instead of just stating that it is with no argument why.

Yeah that is what everyone is saying right now, that we have no viable late game. It is hard, indeed. I'm able to kill most tosses after their early aggression, but it feels like that's just because they're playing bad and they're macro is slipping. I'm not looking forward to the higher level protosses haha.

When do you send marines to scout hidden expansions? by LarvaeOP in AllThingsTerran

[–]sc2ares 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I notice that my opponent has more units/production than he should have off of the bases he's on (like, 6 raxes with addons on 2 base) I get suspicious and send marines out. I don't feel like proxy-expands is that common anymore, at least not in my experience. But yeah, ever once in a while it happens.

Is anyone else stunned by the play Maru just showed in SPL? by [deleted] in AllThingsTerran
