I prefer a ratio of 3:4, zealot:goon. there's no reason a terran should beat u with his push if u are out-resourcing him by at least 1.5:1, just macro like a motherfucker | ||

It seems like when they take control of a main things get so much harder. for every 2 crystals, you can support non stop production from 1 gateway, so for every main that contains 8 nodes, u can support nonstop production from 4 gates...of course there are other obvious things to factor in such as, if u have like 10k in the bank and u havent been spending, then make like a LOT more gates to make up for not spending...but if u are playing efficiently, then 4 gates per 8 crystals, and for 2nd naturals with only 6, then 3 gates is efficent you only need arbiters if hes able to secure a 3rd or more vespenes, cuz then simple ground units like zeal goon will just get outright romped by fully upgraded tank vult goliath, or if u get a 3rd vespene, then it's usually good to get one or two to secure the win and about the point you made about needing to wear him down...ya that is right because he is only going to attack you in a push fashion which means that u have no other way of destroying the push other than attacking it straight up...and dont go carrier tech unless u are maxed, thats how ppl lose games they should have won cuz a good terran will scan it then push right away | ||

some of these strats would include dt drop (or proxy dt rush / proxy dt drop), expoing fast to the 9 o clock main, and proxy reaver | ||

Each time he tries to take his mineral only, mass him. It will kill his second nat, your entire army, and his entire army. Both of you rebuild, and do it again until he runs out of money. you obviously haven't played any defensive terrans, in which case "killing his 2nd nat then rebuild and repeat" usually goes more along the lines of "attempt to kill his 2nd nat...lose everything while only killing a few tanks and a turret..and then losing to a, now unstoppable, tank push" | ||

This is too true. The only thing you can do if you remember is sci. But the problem with that is most late game terrans never have enough gas to pull it off. | ||

AS far as i see it, Protoss cannot beat terran with a 200/200 supply with science vessel support. Not even temps can save them. every1 is saying use temps. It's not easy securing your gas expos. GOod terrans will hit it hard, vulture harassment tanks drops. It's very hard being toss. My suggestion is to harass early on and keep harassing with drops. Try not to let the game get too long or u're fuked basically. Look at NTT for example, after a certain time frame, he is unstoppable. Not even temps can save toss. Stasis field can though. Disruption web can as well, but that's risky to even try. | ||

You stupid? Mass gay cannons? Would be better to spend those on gateways and more exp. 80% of the map would win you a game or you should just die. | ||

'u cant beat a 200/200 tank gol 3-3-3.' Yes u can this is absolutely bs. And some people already mentioned how to do it. 4/5 cars zeal/goon/temp, storm raids, add some arbitter. recall a small unit group to rape some exps. If u have really mass amount of money u could go and sacfricice most probes to get suply for more units. Dont go to heavy on expanding. Stay 1/2 expand ahead in mid game. Once u reach 200/200 yea well then u have to take the remaining expands. In other words dont be to greedy or u will be overrun. | ||

If you really have unlimited money, arbiter/carrier is the premier endgame force, add sairs if has wraiths. Nothing terran has can match that. Just make like 4 or 5 stargates with your 12+ gateways, attack him with the ground forces that you have, replenish them (make lots of dts in the following waves since they will help lots if he unseiges and attacks outside of the protection of his turrets) and gradually build up your fleet as supply allows. Sacrifice probes to keep supply up for your ground force while you do this. Once you get 2 or 3 arbs and 8 or so carriers, it won't matter what he has. Recall to break second mains if he manages to snatch one while your ground force is falling, stasis to own masses of goliaths or enemy air forces, it's pretty easy if you really do have practically unlimited money. | ||

try to not fight an all-out war unless u have 2 more bases than the terran... even so... try to keep the war from coming, keep the ran on edge of his seat my main problem with PvT is that i die to their first push, u know, they go fast expo, 4-5 facts, attack and i die.. i can't rev or dt cuz they have 3-4 turrets by each mineral line, and temps die from 2 tanks sieged by each cc ... PvT is gay | ||
