Ahh, compltely forgot about this thanx skyglow ur right. Even hold postioning dt on ramp wouldnt work becuz sooner or later vult/mine would break in. Yea, I can see it being weak agaisnt 2 fact. thanx. But against nowadays "FD'ers" would this build be good? Someone at least look at the replay? I did normal FD.. | ||

Depends really on positioning and scouting, if ya see him tech and go for FD easily use counter-measures. But christ... this build will have some insane macro, will totally rape if it got through without any problems. | ||

I'd say it's less risky than 14 nexus. A good number of builds are done under the assumption that your opponent doesn't use a particular build. It's unfair to say it sucks because 2 fac is good against it. You'll have goons to deal with vultures. A DT with prick-like micro can delay his build or throw him off balance. Most Terrans don't get fast academy. And even if they do, they won't have enough scans to kill your DT. After the initial 2~3 DTs, it'll be all dragoons. You're only relying on the DTs to buy you time. Just like Muta harass buys time in ZvT. Overall, it's a moderately risky build: an aggresive version of double expanding as a counter to FE. | ||

I would say reaver's safer though, since you yourself have somewhat more control. A good terran can do more vs DT than vs reaver, whereas a good protoss can do more with reaver than with DT. Also if you lose your reav you've at least got robo tech for observers, whereas losing DTs gives you HT tech I suppose, but it's not as useful as obs. | ||

So thats your main + 2 expansions. | ||
