ProxY, I think your strategy just makes your opponent expand and out-macro you but since I'm not a terran player at all(played 2 games on multiplayer as terran, both I cheesed in, one I lost) I'm probably not the person to comment on it.

PvP: Make a citadel while your opponent's probe is still in your base to trick him into thinking DTs so that they'll get fast obs or expand with cannons, but try to make it seem like you don't want him to see it (make it in a corner or something while chasing his probe). Get speed and range, push out with speedlots and ranged goons. (I think maybe about 6-8 speedlots and about 4-5 goons would be good but I don't know exact timings/unit compositions as I've never seen this) off of 3 (2?) gates.

TvT Fast Nukes
After 2-3 (if the map is flat obviuosly more) rine+1 tank+mine upgrade on way, get your exp, then pump vults. (e-bay in case you scouted SP`s or possible Wraith action/ wasn`t able to scout SP`s) Make up to 4 facts, Gain mapcontrol with mines and vultures (when he will have scans, all the energy will probably be used to scout mines), research siege only if it`s necesarry. After 4 facts go for the nukes, and a dropship, 2-3 silos (really fast 3rd cc if you can afford it). Destroy mineral lines and supply depots with Nukes, then finish up with 4 fac tank.

That sounds quite impossilbe considering the heavy amount of gas needed to work. (4-5 gas bases..) facts, sps, 2 sci facs, addons, upgrades, the bcs and ghosts themselfs lots of gas, not considering the units needed in order just for survival.

ZvP

Please try this build against higher C levels or B levels. It works against players C- and below.

4 pool (hopefully they go FE)
make hatchery inside base but outside of scout range
while hatchery is making, get gas and upgrade ling speed
100% hatchery, make sunkens and kill his base with them

I didn't see this trick get any D or D+ player down.

I am sorry, but why would you open 4pool? The exact order of this isn't specific, you should just 9hatch in their base then 9pool 9 overlord and begin sunken pushing. With that build hatch/pool finish at the same time, so you can start immediately. 4 drones can't support a sunken push the way you said, or at least in an effective manner.

Mmm I'd like to see 3 hatch muta ZvP tried at higher levels; I've only played against C- protosses. I've never seen a pro gamer do this for some reason but it works so well, much better than a hydra opening, so I'm wondering if there's some weakness I'm missing. In small numbers muta/scourge rape corsair/cannons, and archons get stuck on the mineral line so often that they're rather useless if you micro around them.

Open standard 3 hatch muta ZvT style but put third hatchery at third base.
Get a fourth hatch at your nat after spire when minerals allow.
Put down third gas somewhere after this.
Get a sunken at your nat and third.
Get 8 mutas and 1 pair of scourge.
Make 2 more mutas and a pair of scourge.
Put down 5th hatch at your third, wall your nat and third with hydra den and evo to defend against zealot counterattacks. Add one more sunken at each if he has a lot of them, which means less cannons so if you survive his speedlots he's screwed.
At this point I like to rally my main hatchery over and just make scourge while the rest of my hatches make drones/hydras and upgrade.
Push out when overspeed finishes with hydras. Also I like to take my 4th at this time while I attack his nat.

one of my friends pointed project 32 out to me. Pretty cool to see this build - I think it's sc2 bringing out non-optimal play innovations in sc1.


A few koreans on BrainClan used it. One used it in almost all of his zvz games with me (about 5), 2 hatch, +1 melee and spores. And that was back when we were allowed to play there, about a year plus ago.

idea TvP:

go 1 rax into expand followed up with fast academy 3 raxes get dropships drop firebats in main/natural /wherever is not defended transition into 6 rax pump with fast battlecruisers put pressure on him and take third with bunkers if push dies your bunekrs should be enough to hold third and your antural mghit need more if it doesnt have tanks defending it already

should be really strong on map with island expansions gl hf

How about trying this TvT Strategy:

1) You apply a proxy 2 starport build.
2) You harass him so badly, that your opponent won't be able to recover from the damage.
3) Whatever you do from here on, you will have HUGE advantage.
4) But try this:

Take your natural command center, and if you want double expand in a hidden expo.

Go Bio, +1 upgrade (I don't care which you choose) and with the remaining wraiths clean up the vultures and tanks

And later you keep humiliating him with dropping M&M in your opponent's main.

You sure gotta save your opponent's ranting. GG :D

I'm impressed with your dedication to this project. I love it!

Here's my recommendation:

PvZ Only use higher-tech Gateway units (meaning, no zealots/dragoons, only use HT's, DT's, Archons and Dark Archons). Must use Maelstrom at least once, and also hallucination at least once. You can use zealots/goons until you get to Templar tech, but after that you cannot make anymore zealots/goons

Today I encountered a guy doing a 2 stargate scout build in PvZ, but scouting revealed it.
Lots of bases and hatches and hive tech killed it*.
