however, i really dont think this should work with good unit positioning (unless the p is behind early). | ||

If toss tries to expo far away, it gets eaten up. I've seen similar versions on nostalgia (where there is no gas at the natural expo), and the toss ends up separating his units and loses an expo or two to mass vults. The key to beating it is photons, not making stray expos, and taking good care of your units, which includes good obs control. | ||

when you have exp, you must have 6 factories, 2 with addon, and 1 starport make tanks only from those 2 factories spare gas will make stopping carriers easy watch korean tvp reps, they do this on every map because it works no matter if you have a gas exp obviously your vulture+drop micro must not suck | ||

they only cost 75 minerals. thats really good. if you use them correctly you can just rush into a whole group of goons place a lot of mines and run away and see like 30 goons die. the only real good way to beat this imo is good storm useage or something like carriers  . reavers could work also. | ||

Only works if you've got a good start... T early expo, P counter double expo, loses some goons early cheap, then gets done for the rest. | ||
