If Beta was released today...

Beside being a thread for sharing the frustration of SC2 setbacks, I was more curious about everyone's interest in the current build - specifically tier climbing routes.

Obviously all information concerning builds are subject to change, but at the base, each unit has a defined role in its respective army (unit counters). I think it will be an interesting discussion as we will see the game progress over the next few months and see which unit dynamics will prove effective once the Beta comes out..

I would say this thread is more of a log of everyone's curiosity concerning build mechanics. For example:

[If Beta was out today] I would experiment with a Marine/Reaper build.

[If Beta was out today] I will experiment with a build for Phase Prisms.

Now I know once the Beta is released that it would be redundant to try just one build or unit counter but I'm sure there are some things you really want to see in action via resurrecting a timeless mechanical build order. So share it!

I wouldn't mind to play around with a viking / drop build... seems like a quick way to drop units (via dropships) and have good support with the vikings transforming to walker mode.

I would double gate proxy every single game.

Actually I'm going to do that no matter what build they implement in the beta. Though if it doesnt work I might switch to Phase Prisms.

I'd really like to test the phase prism and the warp in ability, that's all I'm really interested in atm. And maybe some sort of quick colossus build where I just climb the cliff and harass workers.
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

Thats actually a sweet idea. Since you can warp units into pylon power you could virtually reinforce any attack with good timing.

How could you cheese when you don't even know what the standard builds are.

I think I'd try out a Helion opening and try transitioning from there. They seem pretty strong against most tier 1 units and can out run most units atm. From there I could try Viking raids or back to support units like the Marine or Tank
