there's not a lot of 2v2 strats or discussion usually. Even great 1v1 players can't play 2v2 worth a lick. i find 2v2 more exciting because units that aren't viable to be used in a 1v1 are much more viable sometimes in 2v2.

so what you guys think best combo is.

My 2v2 partner and I play dual Terran, and we hate to go up against the Terran/Zerg combination most of all =p

T/P works best imo, just ledge ur opponents, and use tanks to expo toss and terran. Then carriers/BC or goon/Tank etc easily overwhelm opponents.

2z VS 2p, the zerg fucking owns usually. Its so hard for 1 toss to defend 2 players worth of mutas.

But I like going terran/zerg vs anything.

Hmm, a good strat for 2z players is...

Well this is what Cory (Commmander[SB]) and I tend to do.
Both of us will 12 pool one player, while teching to lair and pumping lings out of 2 hatches. I usually go for hydra while Cory goes for muta. (Note: this is not against people with Z on there team). Harrass harrass yadda yadda.

Edit: Pumping speedlings ;D

Against people with one or 2 zergs I feel it necesary to go muta ling 90% of the time.

this double 9pool z combo is very strong against every other combo with a z involved imo

since 99% of bnet plays LT-only(yuk) and im sure most of you consider a '2v2' as on LT, then duel Zerg is the strongest.

Hunters ( quality map

) - Kor-style duo toss. As underated as Hunters is, ive played many proffesional koreans on Hunters since koreans see it as a 'training' map for 'micro and macro'. Since their are no ramps or ledges, its purely micro+macro that wins.

I could go on defining quality matchups for each map, but that could take hours T_T;.

me and my partner usually go pz with the z going speedling to muta or lurker and rush with the toss..
but we have trouble doing the terran/zerg combination, should the terran send initial first marine/scvs to help the zerg rush? or stay at base until good number of rines? the only thing i know how to do well with terran/zerg is to cliff with muta/tank.

Just like 1v1, 2v2 has the same set of limitations and differences based on what races the other guys are, like 2 Zs are strongest early game with zerg double speed rushing, but it's not going to do crap against a good terran d. TZ and TP are the best combos, ZP works well if you and your part can communicate REALLY well

Toss//Terran best 2v2 combo, however I'm Z user ^^. Rine > any units held on ramp, and when they fall back z's move up and own. GG

zz is the best 2v2 combo. Theres a reason it's forbidden to choose double z in korean pro tournies. Its the same reason that almost every 2v2 team picks zerg/random, hoping to double z.
