Are you talking about if T fast exps or P? I find it considerably hard to play against good Terrans who have the FE builds down on this map. They're so close together, with all the ledge for protection. Normally P has to keep up w/ the exps, because if he does something like 2-gate reaver , 1-gate reaver, dt-rush, any of that stuff against FE on this map and fails, he loses. It's so easy for P to Nexus first on this map so T is tempted to FE & double EXP & then mass & push. I mean why go so standard? White-Ra so that push coming from a mile away, lost most of his units to it... and still won. Idk, guess a better execution would make it look sexy. | ||

Idk, guess a better execution would make it look sexy. we were talking about 2fac so obviously the t is not fe'ing he lost most of his units to the followup, he had a massive advantage after the initial 2 fac failed. losing some goons isnt enough to make up for having an expo that much earlier. what do you mean p keeps up with the expos? p always has more expos, especially on collo. the map size and the fact that protoss usually has the econ advantage from a double nexus (and the fact that its fucking impossible for terran to take a 4th) means that the p usually has an econ advantage and terran has to rely on one bigass upgraded push. if protoss does an aggressive build vs a fast expo on any map and fails hes not gonna be in good shape. i dont really see your point. | ||

Orion practices with the B team then? What about nbs, he plays with the A team? Also, have you played both players? and what's your record against them! | ||
