early marauders, a viable counter? As those early marauders are pretty good for countering a reaper rush... The HP of a handful marauders, may be too much for the ghost to snipe, granted this strat is supreme in most situations.

I feel like TLO tried something similar to this in the IEM against Morrow. It didn't seem like it worked out really well, but I am intrigued.
Give a man a match and hell be warm for a minute, set a man on fire and he will be warm for the rest of his life.

Mm I don't think so. I see what you're saying, that potentially someone who started making maurauders the whole time and never put money into ghosts might be able to just outmass the other, but bare in mind maurauders will only do 10 damage to a ghost (and vice versa), and that snipe is only 25 energy (it does 45 damage). Two ghosts with 3 snipes each have 200 hp (20 maurauder shots) to tank with, and can deal 270 damage very quickly with the snipes alone. And the longer the maurauder player waits, the more energy the ghosts have, and the harder it will be for the maurauder player's maurauders to be able to shoot all at once (thus further downplaying his maurauder count advantage).

I used this against a terran a few days ago who popped up a bunker right away. He was a scrub though so I just went back to my base and waited for my first nuke to pop, then blew open his door with a nuke and a floating barrack as a scout.

A bunker however did negate any early game aggression that I could put on him by protecting his marines.

Any VOD's/replays of this working?

Anybody has any experience of this failing, besides from early bunker to protect marine?

Wow what an innovative build. I'm really looking forward to picking qxc's brain about this one. Where does someone come up with such a unicorn build anyway?

I LOL'd, but I don't think anyone picked up on this yet.

Unfortunately I was unable to watch the beginning or the end (I just caught about 10 minutes in the middle). Since this is a TeamLiquid event, surely there will be a VOD of this, but is there any estimation of when that will be or when it will be posted?

VODs are up, but still processing. They can be found at the teamliquid youtube page, found here

You can also download the torrent, here.

Apologies for the low quality, we didn't have a separate person to record VODs so I had to just take them from my ustream recording.

Thank you sir! No worries about the quality, as they are just fine - if you can see it, it's fine! Thanks again for a very cool episode, and hopefully thank you in advance for the many more to come!

Awesome build and strategy. the key seems to be scouting them and hiding your ghost tech well. a tank or bunker can really mess you up

I just watched the VOD for this and I must say I was very impressed with the format and content. I really hope we see more and more of these in the future. I love the in-deapth two hour long analysis of a single build so I really understand the build, counters and viability.

Tried this a couple of times today

Beat one guy who claimed to be A+ on ICC lol

Second guy I missed EMP on the Banshees and he raped my antiair

Third game I got Proxy Reapered

Fourth I got in-base bunkered.

Need to scout better

I have a question if someone can answer:


What do you do if your opponent walls off? Do you immediately shift into marauders and try to break the wall?
