Well this attack is supposed to be fast to work, just as many posters said before. So the point is to do enough damage before toss gets enough templars, I guess

Dropships seem to work very nicely with infantry because you can put in so many of them.

You can dedicate one dropship to stopping expos in progress, or just simply destroying them. Marines destroy buildings at such amazing speed.

Another to harass base, another to be gay on cliffs.

What I do on cliffs is unload 7 rines 1 medic, don't let toss know they are there. And drop 2 tanks there later and take his expo without him being able to do much.

The idea is to separate his army and gain an economical advantage.

There's no way a 2 base terran who is not being harassed as much can be beaten by a toss that is having trouble exanding.

Then again, I'm only a D noob in PGT :-/

The highest I've beaten is a C- with this strat.

another good build is rax make 4 marine fact --- tank -- seige--- cc ---then add 2 more rax + another fact and hit him while he takes his 2nd nat. Of coure you make an acad in there for fast double scan to protect from dt, its kinda risky but with proper scouting is pretty damn solid.

Its a bit of a one-shot thing. You would generally stop doing it after toss gets storm going and switch to mech. Ideally you would win the game before he gets a counter or set him back enough to win anyway.

TreK vs Testie F2F on Nostalgia is a good game showing how infantry can be effective and how it can also be owned. Testie starts mech then drops ~10 barracks though, instead of the other way around. TreK mass expansions and storm won in the end.

hellghost did that? Pretty cool for a build that i found on my own to be used by him (not saying i used it first just never saw it used in a rep before because i dont watch all that many reps).

Infantry can be very strong vs toss if used right.

basically bio is strong until protoss charges enough storm to cast multiple storms on your mandm. So the key obviously is to mass just enough very quickly to quickly push out and win. Vs most strong protoss you wont be able to do this. From here you need to get a group of vultures to vaid vs temps and to keep him from going pure mass speed zeal templar which is unstopabble mid game by a biomech army. You can keep making marines but vultures become more cost efective. Your bio at this point should be completely behind your thanks and should up to target zeals and then quickly move back until you can target and kill his temps.

loads of progamers have won with bacanic terran vs other progamers in pro matches. It's not reliable, but it's viable. thus it gets used occasionally.

It's like going reaver PvT, it's not reliable so it doesn't get used a lot.

IMO it's a viable cheese opening against a range goon build if you can come out after he expanded with some timing and luck


might wonna do it if you're not feeling confident in a real game

Bio is usually something ppl do after getting gas rushed in my experience, still it's very good against 1gate if you have the element of surprise.

Nazgul vs Hellghost, where hellghost does exactly what you described And the game has an awesome ending... It may be broken though.

Anyway, it's not so much that you discovered something that works, it's that hellghost was able to make it work. Some other players would too, some wouldn't. So many things aren't used though they work; just that metal is easiest to execute
