thank you, i will try the flash block
|
are the bridge ones in the middle of the map really that practical? it seems hard to get them all built and then they'll just be wiped out by a toss force pretty quickly.
the terran wall-in guide (barracks left supply right, etc) is really the key to knowing how to wall on any map, even if you're not too familiar with the map itself.

cool stuff, i would consider the bridge walls to be useful, when i decide to take that part of the map i send 3-4 scv anyways so i can have it up in no time, and it will bug up units trying to get to the tanks shooting at them, the toss will have to manually target the supply depots and get you at least 2-3 more tank volleys, not to mention that most people will see that wall and just decide to go somewhere else.

All I can really say is watch any game with flash tvping on destination, and you'll see why its so damned effective. A few tanks positioned properly, a turret or two, and some mines, and its impenetrable. Basically, terran can effectively split the map/have more of the map than toss and get away with it.

There have been pro VODs that have shown its use. If protoss decides to attack through the bridge, the wall will buy you more time to move your army into position. On Destination, you often have to defend a variety of areas, and devoting too many units to defend one expansion is not optimal. The walls I've suggested will make the expansions much easier to defend with a lesser amount of units. That's why they're useful.
Also, barracks isn't always to the left of the depot.

Where are my walls with CC, aka FD-walls? sure, the supply and rax is easy, but I never really nkow where to place the factory to protect it properly, should the shit hit the fan.
|
The walls to block the expansions are very good, thanks =D
|
are the natural walls zealot tight? e.g. can the lots move between the left side of the barracks and the cliff in pic 1 of naturals?

interesting. i must try this some time.

does the flash block really work? the gap looks big enough for a probe/zealot to me but this is pretty awesome.
|
It wont stop zealots, but it doesnt need to, its there to stop goons.
|
It does work. Marines and zerglings can move through but not zealots. Try it yourself. If an SCV can't move through then a zealot/probe can't either.
Thanks for the effort OP

Yes, the zealots can get through, but dragoons can't. Usually this won't matter though, since they'll have their zealots in a shuttle. Note that these are the only blocks that are not zealot-tight.

As the caption under the pic says, marines can move in and out, but zealots AND PROBES cannot.

how is it possible that marines can fit through but probes cannot? they are both small units, aren't they? i always thought that if a marine can fit through a probe can definitly do it o_O
