I present to you ling-proof walls at naturals on Heartbreak Ridge:

[image loading]


I played some games using this setup and people almost always mass up lings and try to overwhelm me.

One guy tried to drone drill me in a regame after he lost the first one.

Anyway, note that 3 oclock position allows for much smoother gameplay as the marines are spawned inside the wall as well as factory units.

Some reps again if someone is interested:
The first game against that guy who drone drilled in the second.

I hope you can use what you learned and pwn zergs.

for the current TvZ trends, especially if you go for 2port wraiths, factory wallin is the way to go imo.

You save up extra minerals because you get to build your 1st supply near your minerals.

That's a really weird wall in. Pretty useful and cool. If I were zerg I'd be confused.

Blog delivers, that is very cool, you'd expect to able to fit through there easy, graphically there is a massive whole.

This is why SC remains cool, all these little unexpected tricks.

I was kinda wondering wether to post it in strategy, but decided to put it in blog instead, coz I didn feel like typing it out according to the standards of those threads.

Maybe I'll repost it when I get back from uni later.

Yea, this blog delivers big time..

I knew about the rax+fact combo being lingproof, I just didn't know what exactly the building placement needed to be. IIRC, you can put rax on top and be safe too.. though I am unsure.

The only problem with this type of wall is that you cannot have it until a bit later.. so it won't save you from fast pool strategies.

5/5 anyway.

5/5, although if they're committed they'll attack the temples and go round the back.

Go ahead, but this will be out of top5 blogs soon, so if you too think I should post it in Strategy, give me a standardized name to use and I'll repost it.

"[G] Ling-tight walls on Heartbreak Ridge" should be ok?

100% sure it doesn't work for barracks, 99% sure about Ebay.

The moment your rax is finished, you start the factory - you are safe. Remember, buildings don't have to be finished for the wall to work properly.

I'd say this is fine vs normal ling strategies(9 pool).
4/5 pools will get there before you're done.
6 pool not sure (is 6 pool even used?)

Yes.
Refinery + any early building besides supply depot blocks everything.

Plus it only works if the supply is to the left or right of the refinery.

So, if there was a supply next to the refinery, a zerg could bring a drone with his lings and fuck you over.
