I thought Artosis always ranted about mech ZvT??

Thats what 90% of his tweets are about anyways.

What's cheesy about 2 gating or dt dropping? They are openings that leave Protoss with plenty of options even if you don't die to them. This is just a worthless rant.

So did bunker rushing Z in BW, but people still called it cheesy.

For clarification, that is rax, fac, starport into reactor marine/tank/raven then transition into whatever you want

I've been trying that, 2gate seemed to hit before I could begin production but I was making a lot of marauders, I'll definitely try marine/tank/raven from now on. Marauders/reactor medivacs really give you a completely different income. Thanks.


I wouldn't compare bunker rushing to 2 gate, 2 rax (against zerg at least) would be a more apt comparison.

For myself, when I play against P, I scout after depot and spend a lot more care (than I did in SCI) at keeping my scout alive. By the time (if they do) get a stalker to deal with my scv, I usually see an important piece of their tech tree; if I feel they've been trying to trick me or delaying their tech buildings for a surprise switch, I scan shortly afterwards to confirm.

If you're really feeling the rage, try reaper rushing a couple of times. great for blowing off steam


Two rax was standard for so long. There is no way I would consider that cheese.

The traumas he felt in SC1 can't be forgotten...

btw I tried the 1/1/1 reactor marine/tank/raven combo, it's simply amazing. Also thanks a lot for the scouting advice, I could really feel the difference. It's extremely easy to shift-bash right click and it puts the opponent a little under pressure.

if you really want to know what it feels like to play without any pressure on you, just play against a computer, you can play as standard as you want that way. sounds sarcastic but its how i learned to have sik control, just making my build orders tight as a tiger.

just have fun though man.. at first i hated getting 9 pooled on python in broodwar, but then one time i played while stoned and i realized that microing scvs in front of marines and still keeping my base going was actually really good fun. just feel the amazingness that is tiny micro battles, and remember that once you fight it off you're in good shape!

hohoho, a Terran, saying another race is inherently cheesy? oh please. Dont carry any of that pathetic artosis bias over from BW, terran is absolutely the cheesiest and most versatile race.
hi 6-9 rax reaper/maurader +shells, hi banshee rushes + cloak, hi bunker rushes, hi super fast hellion drops.
In fact, if a protoss is winning against you with cheese, you should commend him, since terran with wallin is basically uncheesable. (unless you count hidden void ray is cheese, thats pretty shitty to deal with as all three races)
EDIT: if you mean inbase cheese or something, well thats just something I havent faced with any race since patch 5ish :p
