Bisu vs. sAviOr MSL Finals - I believe it's the reason why Bisu is called The Revolutionist (or one of them?). Day[9] and NonY commentating. Actually I only now noticed it's Day[9] there, it was the first game of BW I ever watched before I even knew Day[9] or TL.

Spoiler alert: You'll know the results of the games before they even begin.

Learning terran is like smashing your head against a brick wall in hopes that the wall will crumble. About a month in your head will harden ever so slightly. A year in, you develop a helmet. But the pain.... the pain is always present. *Flashback to all those DT drops*

Seriously though, build refinement is absolutely key. Executing a simple build order is going to be harder then you first anticipate. Terran at low ranks is all about defending the gimmick whether it be bulldog, DT drop, or 2 hatch lurkers.


Any gimmicks to fear from my fellow Terrans?

BBS and wraith builds mainly, maybe 14 CC, but it's not that bad. Terran cheese kinda sucks....

In TvT it's proxy 1-2 rax and 2 port wraith you need to look out for. 2 Fact can also be tough to deal with, but with a good early game macro you should be able to deal with it. I think it's worth it to delay your CC to get 3-4 early marines. It helps protect against 2 fac, but proxy rax especially.
