what i got from what they explained to me is that in a lot of cases the connection goes like CHILE to USA to KR which causes bad tr, or even more stupid the connection goes like...

Im a Terran player and im back to the game after many years. ¿What would be the most basic build orders for TvP TvZ and TvT? I want to learn and practice one good build order for each of those matches. Thank you. | ||

I want to learn and practice one good build order for each of those matches. Thank you. The game has changed substantially, particularly in the last 2-3 years, for a few reasons:
Aside from these broad-scale changes to the game, there have been several meta-game shifts (note that these are just generalizations):
Probably there are dozens of other changes to the meta-game. These are the main ones I can think of. Some other players might disagree with me on certain points, and again, these are just generalizations. Here is a link to the most recent build orders compilation. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1O0XEPA9ZxqkMsul7UjEt1wotvkBE1drB/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=113235138643928805516&rtpof=true&sd=true (source) glhf | ||

I want to learn and practice one good build order for each of those matches. Thank you. TvP: +1 5 Factory. General concept is getting vultures early for mines while you expand, then transition into a defensive setup while getting up early armory for +1, then additional factories for vultures. Forces protoss to make a lot of gateways and prevents them from just mass expanding. Can either attack with the timing or pivot into 3rd base and more factories. TvZ: 2 rax academy. Zergs these days almost always go 2 hatch muta. 2 rax academy has a stim timing and then can transition into either more rax or faster tech. TvT: 3 fact vultures is probably the standard these days, but 2 fact tank/goliath is also a fine opener. Pick either one and stick to it until you master it, then learn the other one. | ||

I have thought of it as a zerg player to find the ideal workers to minerals ratio and have noticed some odd balance that is very elegant regarding how many workers you have per mineral patch, 1:1, 2:1, or 3:1. It was difficult to associate the exact number since zerg doesn't have exact multiples of these numbers, so I just counted workers from how many overlords, 1, 2, or 3. You have +1 command coming from the hatchery, so 9, 17, or 25 workers - which plot exactly on ideal mining thread's findings, if you plot how much 9, 17 and 25 SCV's mine - that is 528/m, 800/m, 1064 minerals per minute. It got difficult getting that part since the OP plots the harvesting logarithmically which screws up all arithmetic and only expresses linearly as to how much it costs to build said SCV's and supply depots - luckily that total sum is expressed fully. From that, I deduce it has to be a multiple of 8 since that is what workers harvest in Starcraft. The big revelation here is that there is almost no difference in how long it takes to recoup the cost. 9 drones harvest their cost - plus 1 hatchery and drone to make it and an overlord - in 102 seconds. 17 drones 105 seconds, 25 drones 107 seconds. I think that means, at high saturation, the game balances mining rate quite well. | ||

For example, hydralisk does 10 explosive damage. If it's shooting at a marine it'll do 5 damage. If it gets a +1 upgrade it would do 11 explosive damage, or 5.5 damage to a marine. Does that get rounded up to 6? (i.e. +1 is effectively a 20% upgrade?) or does it stay at 5 (no effect), or is it like half the time it'll do 5 and half the time it'll do 6 (cumulative 10%)? Or, is it that the base damage gets the damage multiplier, and then the upgrade is just a straight addition on top of that? (e.g. it's 5/6/7/8 damage for 0/+1/+2/+3 upgrades)? Part of the reason why this is interesting is it might affect the relative usefulness of various different upgrade threshholds. (e.g. if the round-down version is correct technically a hydralisk would get no benefit until +2. Conversely, if the round-up version is correct then +2 provides no benefit. | ||

It's (base + attack modifier - armor modifier)*damage type modifier. I think tec247 worked out the full mechanics on the rounding a few years ago but I don't recall where. But rounded to .1s. You can test this yourself though by attacking a tank with a ghost and watching the damage ticks. | ||

I don't know what TTR is, but it isn't about skill, rather it is about finesse. You cannot do 180 degree turns, you need to do 11 o'clock turns(that is the term that was used in jaedong game aftermath the first time I read it). That keeps mutas moving instead of stopping and turning. | ||
