Starcraftgamers.com download section has a replay pack of Satanik[pG] games, almost all of the TvZ he goes 3 rax and attack sunkens successfully using more or less the same timing and build.

I've tried looking for the Stinger replay but sucked and did not find it (damn spent awhile searching too). Could anyone post up a basic 3 rax replay please. Thanks. BTW, thank u SpiriT-DemoN- for suggesting [Oops]Cloud's TvZ.


i told you go look for replays of ToT)Spawn(

I usually 3 rax when I see a 3rd hatch. I go rax,rax, gas at 1-2 marines, ebay, quick +1 anything, academy, 3rd rax. By the time my 4rd rax comes up, I have about 12 rines, so I make 6 medics, 6 firebats and go. If the foe goes spire, I win, if lurkers...

Lets talk about sunkens breakthrough, can someone specifically describe the BO in more detail.

Also, if you have reps with a successful 3 rax opening please post it up and describe the situation. I'm very tired of the 2 rax tech to tank and science vessel build before expo.

This is also my weakest matchup by far. Any help is appreciated. Thanks guys.

3 rax if ur confident at micro

another successful rep is joyo vs twisted i believe, the liquibition on LT. since twisted had to go 3 hatch being at 12, joyo took advantage and went 3 rax.
Joyo vs Tomson.
Tomson had 27 drones and 1 sunk :D

Personally, being a Terran player I've never actually succeeded on a 3 Rax game. I never have enough minerals to get my tanks or Sci quick enough to counter the lurks. Thats why I use 2 rax, though my micro is good enough to kill lurkers... I just always die.

Twisted - why don't you go pro?

And how do you prevent this strategy from working (against a skilled terran)?

Ps there was some guy in WGT named "MUFO", who always made 1 rax, gas, bay and +1upgrade, rax, acad, rax.
He'd do this vs ANY race, and if they didnt knew him already from previous games, kill any guy.
I saw guys like Hovz, ovi, and others losing to this 2-0, 2-1, and many other better players.
