Why you microing and waste time with 4 SCV? Call the guy a noob and leave the game! | ||

I didn't say anything about rines  I Just said firebats vs lurkers I think firebat wins? | ||

Let me try to write... ... The definitive BC rush Build Order The key is pretty tricky for average players: peon stopping, sacrificing econ to get shit faster. 1)build scv until 10/10, build gas, put 5 scv to gas, then wait for 400 min and build a command center at your choke to wall in. The reason for a CC is: - you need the supply for BC that take mucho mucho food - you need gas and CC don't take too much - cc is low tech so you are not giving away your strat (extremely important) - cc has much more hp than supply depot. Don't use supply for wallin; that's what noobs do. 2) stop producing scv (that's the peon stopping i was talking about). Keep making command centers, completing your wallin and getting supply. 3) build barracks, factory, then immediately build 5 starports. The reason is you'll get BC five times faster this way, which is smart. By the time your nerd facility with star trek add-on will finish, you should have the gas to get all 5 BCs (timing is essential in this build) 4) by that time, your opponent may try a risky rush. lift your command centers and micro them back and forth the way you micro goons vs marines, it should buy you enough time to defend with the BCs (in the right hands, 5 BCs own 6 zerglings) 5) research yamato gun 6) start yamato harassing his base. The key is: scan, choose a larva, "y". The BCs will swoop in and anihilate that larva. From my experience, NO amount of micro can save a larva targetted by 5 yamatos. That's what make this build so strong... Retreat immediately to your base or a cliff. 7) rinse and repeat: the reason is, when you have killed all 3 larvae, THEY CANNOT PRODUCE STUFF, meaning you win ! Stuff to watch -scourges: easy counter. Just yamato the buggers -blimps: tricky. Scan and clone-yamato the interceptor. Try not to use more than 2 yamatos on a single interceptor -defilers: they can't hurt you. Scorpions hit with their tail, and you are cruising in hyperspace and shit. -firebats: those bad guys OWN mutas AND BCs because of +1 armor and stim. If he gets firebats, just mass scvs from all your command centers and overwhelm him with sheer number. -sometimes after a few battles your BCs get covered by blue lightning or red goo. That means respectively that there's been a short circuit or too much rust. Time to recycle. Go over a cliff and make them yamato one another so that your opponent don't get the exp. -high templars: those can harm you only if they morph into an archon. Don't mind them. With a little bit of practice, you should get the coveted "5 stars" in you battlenet profile, definitely proving you are not an average player anymore... Hope this helps newbie players out there. | ||

yamato scourges cc wall in 5 yamatos for 1 larva you are truely the best bw player I have ever seen best move ever: -sometimes after a few battles your BCs get covered by blue lightning or red goo.

First of all: Zerg SUX!!! Don't use them. Mass SCVs can kill 2 Zerglings, so clearly TvZ is imbalanced. Next, you need to learn basic build orders. Here's my personal favorite with Protoss: Build 50 probes Mass cannons at your choke point Your opponent will become frustrated because cannons are invincible. He will leave and you will win. If he uses this thing called a "Dropship", then disconnect, because he is clearly hacking. Never expand. Getting multiple bases is dangerous. With 1 base, you're much stronger. Oh and about firebats vs hydras.... You shouldn't ever have to worry about hydras, since Zerg sux and all you have to do to beat them is mass SCVs. The only problem is if the Zerg uses their super cheap flying pigs (they get one at the beginning of each game because Blizzard knew that Zerg were the worst). Your SCVs won't be able to attack them, it's laem. | ||
