This is the stupidest advice you will ever hear TvT, I hate to say T_T.

Sorry GroT but seriously, not making Battle Cruisers when you can TvT is just fucking stupid.

yeah, if i have the advantage in tvt, i almost always try to work up to bcs instead of trying to finish him off with tank gol drops.
one mistake in a big dropship fight can really change the game completely, battlecruisers are so much safer.

U should've gotten plague to plague his wraiths and then used ultralisks to tear up his tanks. FOllow this up with some dark templars and some Dark archons to mind control his men.

Finally, attack with BC but yamato his scv's so he can't get minerals ahahah. GL next game.

nukes are very usefull for pushes too. set it up so he cant reach ghost easily and nuke would get half oh its range in his defense line, scan, if you see him running away -> cancel nuke and take his position.

if you cancel nuke, you will still lose it, so its better to nuke anyways, well, its better to not nuke at all i think, doesnt tank outrange ghost?
and id rather use my gas on something else then ghosts and nukes.

well, if you force push, you sure are gonna lose quiete a bit to siege, so wasting nuke is not that bad, suply it takes might be problematic. Nothing can outranges nukes, ghost+sight upgrade+setting nuke so it gets only ~40% of its blast in their army... Nuke advancing is probably as close to finger of god as you cen get with terran.

Pure Bcs protected by some turrets.Yamato him to death.1BC>3wraiths and is the same limit and about same cost.If he is persistant about his wraiths ,make like 5-6 valks, give them hold(cause they're quite stupid.. ) close to your BCs and don't stop yamatoing..And btw,if you have the map, you should be able to just walk trough him with mass Bcs+some valks...

cant use valks late game. they dont shoot due to sprite bug. it happened to me recently. ;(

oh and 3/3 wraiths really do well vs valks. the up'ed armor really reduces the splash.

that's your opinion but i still think BC's suck, when you have an opportunity to make them and win you should have just already won anyway

i've seen some very rare situations where they are actually good though, but people build them every game for god's sake

Dearest Grot,

I'm sure you know the virtues of terran defense. How do you win without battlecruisers if your enemy sits on resources and makes his own cruisers until he reaches 200/200 and moves out with tank/BC force you are unable to stop? Difficult. Because you see terran's are a hard lot to just kill if they play defense.

because they are fun ^^. Its like making ultralisks to a certain extent. They dont need much micro and just plow their way through most defences.

You are less prone to screw up and lose the advantage when you go for capital units. Like if you keep going for hyra/lurk all through the game they can get blasted by tons of tanks if you screw up your micro. But with ultras, you cant really screw up the micro, same goes with bcs.
