Hi all!

I have finally taken my notebook from service, delete a lot of stupid games, cookies from all browsers, lots of unused software, etc. So, my notebook now works like a rocket. ^^

Gathered some more money to my moneybox for my future i7. =) That was pretty good.
I also have birthday soon, and I think that my friends will present me some pretty nice devices.
And I found out, that my sc2 works much better now (on notebook), and the middle graphics lags much fewer.

Yesterday I played toss as usual, and decided to play fast blink vs terran. Gathered rather normal group of stalkers, researched blink, and just went to the ramp, jumped on the opponent's main and won. TT. Is it really so easy to defeat marines-tanks terran with fast blink?

And also, which build is the best? For example:

1) 3 gates, blink, robo, obs, nexus
2) 3 gates, blink, nexus, robo, obs
3) 2 gates, blink, gate, robo, nexus

What do u think?
And how is better to counter mass marines-marauders push? Mass centries?

Waiting for your answers!

For the builds:

#1 - depending on what you see and what the opponent has, this is a pretty safe option if he goes for an expansion

#2 - same as #1

#3 - very risky as you are very low in gateways to any 3 rax pressure or all-ins, you can't pump many units out while only on 2 gate robo w/ blink researched

I've never really experimented with blink, but given huge maps and easy expansions I would prefer to do them on those types of maps. Otherwise, I stick to very safe play.

Blink can be a double edged sword, and the time it takes to upgrade can be well spent into a collosus which can save you from all-ins and 3 rax pressure.
