FUCK! I'm 0-10 or something to the same damn build. I Just cant TvP longinus for shIIIT.

Same build from toss all the time. 2 gate range goon pressure. If they gas steal its almost instant gg even if I try to Bunk + marine range. If not they can pylon the factory and tanks come out late enough they can kill the wall and get in and pick off the tank easy as hell. FUCK this is annoying.

Post a replay or something.

Usually, I can handle the 2 gate goon pressure. Even though I don't play P, I get 1 fact -> siege with 5-6 marines and I'm usually ok. o.o

I do the same thing, but if the probe harrases they have goons breaking down you wall b4 your tank is out/able to drive them away. And once the wall breaks that tank dies in like 2 seconds

Another thing that I hate about longinus is how a 3pylon wall + cannon which is not harrassable by vults and they have 4 gases/3(4) mineral patches which they can simply out macro you.

work on your build timing

if he tries to stop you from building your factory, send out two and feint with one.

you should have marines well before your shop is up, so you should be able to stop him from pyloning your factory. If he does anything like that, just queue up some marines

I usually get to place my factory, But if he pylons where the machine shop goes I have to lift-move-build, Once I lift he can cancel the pylon. All this gives him like 5 more seconds where my tank is slowed, problem is tanks normally come out after range goons any ways, so any slower and he has his 2 back ups making it 5 goons vs wall which dies then 5 goons vs tank + marines which gets owned.

Don't sweat it, even FBH loses to that ( see B.net attack )

I guess the only thing you can do is work on your build timing, fastest factory possible.

Also, you gotta have 2-3 scvs at your bunker ready to repair right? =P

good luck =)

I think Katrina may also be a hard map for TvP, but not now due to Flash's sexy build.

Yes, I play Protoss and I admitted a TvP build was sexy. Hang me

dont try to wall at ur nat, wall at ur choke. if u do a 11 gas/rax, u should be able to repair ur "wall" and get a tank out in time to push out. Play a macro game from there after a fast expo. (or if ur good, go dropship and mines with vults).

but don't try later factories, because then they can harass the shit out of u with 2 gate goons. i usually get my first factory at 16 just to get the tank out faster.

its still a massively hard map, its just 2base carrier doesnt work against flash's build and a bunch of protoss players apparently arent clever enough to do anything else
