EPTHmm, I can't judge whether this is true, but his TvZ really shines against his opponents so far. I think we would have to see how he performs vs guys like Ret, Mondragon and so on. However, the replays are great except for one or two games where he's a bit careless with his MMF.

I'm saving the recordings though and will upload them as "freestyle tvz" where i basically don't follow any strict build but rather just react to what the zerg does and counter it or just play around. I guess you could watch reps of it but FPVODs are more fun i guess. I will do commentary for the good games, but not for all freestyle-games. Might use my mixerskills instead^^ Anyway Zoler im sorry i dont know if i'll be able to put the VOD up in time. I'll try though. Aplexnd: Is that a proposition? i dont understand^^ you want me to do it or are you willing to do it for me? Would be great though, coz ansdwering same questions over and over is not saving time! Anyway thnx for the support!! | ||

Stylish is known by the ones that know him to be one of the top foreigner TvZ, you can ask ToT)Naugrim( and many more ^^ it's just that he doesn't play in a good clan or in tournaments so he's just not that known to the crowd. | ||

Well, if Naugrim says so, there must be some truth in it. Maybe TL should get Stylish to push F91 down from the Liquibition throne?  | ||

I can only give tips and buildorders the rest you have to practice. Even if you listen to all i have to say you will lose alot of game during practice. However I will answer this. Nowadays I use the strong FD opening on most maps. If you aren't able to cause enough damage with the attack, or aren't able to scout properly what he does, feel comfort in that with this strategy, if he's opening preassure goons, you will have the earlier expansion. While laying mines with the second vulture, add Ebay and reserch siegemode and take a defensive position. If he does any sort of 2 gate preassure build, you will notice it. Just attack with marines and tanks as normal, but be more causius and use the vultures to lay mines outside your natural and in the middle of the map. Do some damage but try not to lose the tanks, micro them carefully, pull them back as soon as goons start to fire on them. From here you can add armory and go for a 2-1 upgrade attack and take a third or you can switch into 5fact push or something like that. If you do enough damage, if he's doing 14cc or 1gate exp or 1gate tech, you will be able to scout his tech and can play accordingly. If he's expanding alot and making observers you can do the 5fact attack followup like I did in the VOD and alot of other things that doesn't include being so careful. So basically it depends on the damage you can do to him and what information you can gather with the attack. If no damage, defensive mines, play defensively + vults as scouts after mines are layed. If much damage, offensive mines, scout and play greedy, as in my VOD. Alexpnd that would be great then, please PM me | ||

Ling all-ins and runby's is really not a problem on longinus. | ||

Ayumi build is good for pos 11. I will do a VOD of a great 14cc build for longinus. Today hopefully. I've had great success with this build! | ||

I woudln't suggest it, but its very doable. Specially mech builds. But since Longinus is pretty good for standard TvZ Bio you should't complicate things. I'm going to try to record a VOD now. | ||

Also, on another note, what are your opinions on old school builds like the 2Fact Rush, (2 Add-ons with Speed and Mines) where you push with 4 vults and a tank? I saw TheMarine demonstrate it on a FPVOD in a KTF tutorial vid. It seems old school, but why is it not really seen a lot anymore? | ||

I heard the most viable is Siege Expand, but what is your opinion on openings such as a normal FD, or strong FD on this map?

I saw TheMarine demonstrate it on a FPVOD in a KTF tutorial vid. It seems old school, but why is it not really seen a lot anymore? Destination is hard TvP imo. I wouldn't suggest any sort of "Flashbuild". Strong FD is doable on this map. 5factpush is also good but sometimes its hard to break out of the bridges when you do the 5factpush, so generally i like to open Strong FD and have 2 vultures roaming map so he defend rather than hold pos outside your base. Dropstrat also works here, but sometimes wall can be risky since he might block pylon with probe. With the dropstrat you can abuse the area behind his expansion. Also in lategame, while pushing, take 1 tank and move via the side of the map behind his natural to abuse that area, like SkyHigh did vs BeSt. 2fact is doable, but risky. If you do it, be sure to open up the mineralpatch in your base so you can come from behind with vultures if he holds ground outside your bridges with goons. | ||

You have to take the third slower and make some rounds of vults first, coz its really hard to defend any kind of attack. But sure, if you can get a third up safe, i would suggest adding it later than in my vod and be really causius, then ofcourse its really good in lategame. | ||
