I love them guy saying reactors need to be nerfed, when this 'build' doesn't even use gas early. Reactors are the only thing that evens the play field against WARP IN ANYWHERE ON THE MAP, or PRODUCE 6-12 UNITS AT A TIME.. The reason this is unstoppable/unscoutable is the SCVs in tow to help bolster the marine numbers. Isn't it funny though? Every terran opening gets nerfed and zergs say to us 'Hows it feel? Learn to play'. No more 5 rax reaper. No more 3 rax reaper expo. No more reactor hellions. So we're left with the lowley marine, and studder step micro to beat zergs. Now they want marines nerfed, or something else changed, so they can 14 hat safely. Ask any zerg on ladder after they expo, they all agree (as I do too) that you HAVE to expo to have a chance to win most maps vs terran. Just do. The problem is after that expo is up, and our pressure is done and we expand, we're still behind even with double mules. We have to make 2-4 more barracks, 2 factories, 2 ports, whatever that takes time and money -- then put ADD ons on. Then, start researching upgrades and making the unit. You? Build building. Check. Hit hotkey for hatcheries, press Z or R 12 times, spread creep, inject again. Slings counter about every single barracks unit. When more mid - high level zergs start abusing slings more, it makes marine pressure a lot harder, as you have to wait a bit longer and push smarter with walls to your back etc. And, as a mineral only counter to a mineral only unit, it just works hand in hand. Edit - I mean using sling flanks more until you get bling speed --- | ||

I'll just say zerg had a lot of options reduced early on in beta, so don't think you're alone terrans. Calm down and wait for when you can actually see it, because I don't think many of you can even comment on the issue without throwing general arguments out. I'm not worried about it until it transfer over to the us servers, since I'm still having trouble dealing with mass marine. One step at a time. If they think it's a legitimate threat, we shouldn't be so quick to doubt them. But we shouldn't blindly follow. | ||

This basically was a must-have on EU servers already. Watch Darkforce etc. It's easy to hold any little later bio-pushes with some banelings, comes down to micro imo. | ||

Because after all, any tactics that prevent a Zerg from nonstop droning should not be possible. +1... When a Terran win a single game people want Blizzard to nerf them (look at streams on TL...). Most zerg lose to this build because they react badly and go for 14 hatch, whatever is happening... Give zerg 2 hatch at the beginning of the game will prevent them for whining about Terran. | ||
