Personally I'm not very good at Heartbreak Ridge (in fact I'm terrible) TvP. Whenever I play I either end the game early or get stuck on 3 bases and mine out -> lose. I was thinking, how could I get a 4th base?

In a replay I saw recently someone floated their barracks over to block the small choke in the corner expo on heartbreak. If Terran did this and dropped several tanks to secure the expo quickly, I guess it would be a way to get a free walled off expansion?

Thoughts..? e.e

I think it's a cool idea, would probably work well with a 1 fac expo -> port harass build. You'd be less mobile and have to put a good amount of resources into defending the isolated expo, though.

I love how easy it is to pylon off the corner expos on HBR, seems like this could be a good way for terran to do a similar move.

I think the best way to play HR is to take the center. It may sound stupid because toss can just "run around" but if you defend your main with a mine line and like 3-4 tanks while taking the mid you can get a free expo with 2 gas.

Fixed.

it sounds like a decent idea to me if you can pull it off, but it's not really my style. I would probably take 7, then 6 o clock for my 3rd and 4th, then go for the center and deny toss expos afterwards. Then again, I usually die in the first 5 minutes on that map for various reasons, so maybe it wouldn't be that easy.

I hate that map so much. Even taking the third feels like shit half the time.

2base 6fact timing push like every game. Unless I kill the P with it I just gg pretty much. If it has to go to 4bases it's just a joke.

I rape lastshadow on that map btw.

oh get on osu more noob I miss u.
