The Ultimate Nexus Wars BUILD

This is a Terran build, because I find that Terran are very op atm. This build is currently unbeatable.
This is how I execute it:

1. Reaper
2. Marine
3. Hellion
4. 2X Siege Tank
5. Pylon
6. Medivac
7. Dingle
8. 2X Viking
9. Pylon Upgrade
10. 3X Siege Tank
11. Pylon Upgrade
12. 4X Thors
13. 2X Siege Tank
14. 2X Viking
15. Pylon Upgrade
16. 4X Battlecruiser
17. 2X Viking
18. Build 2 Upgrade buildings

Upgrade from now onward. I always upgrade the plating first, rather than the weapons.

If you know there is a push coming then build 2 Chelupa Canons. NEVER nuke in the early game unless its a 'do or die' situation.

The ONLY way you can loose by doing this build is if you have NOOB team mates or you get cheesed.

Does any1 even talk about 1v1 in Nexus Wars? I think its great, and this build order works fine for me.

Note: If you see in the income tab that he does not build pylons but that he builds agressive buildings, go ahead and place one cannon, if the agression increases alot, upgrade your cannon instead of building more of them, chrono boost if needed.

Building, Income,
Pylon - 26
Pylon - 42
Pylon Upgrade - 74
Pylon - 90
Pylon Upgrade - 122
Pylon - 138
Pylon Upgrade - 170
Pylon Upgrade2 - 234
Pylon Upgrade2 - 298

Then after that you have alot of income to do powerful endgame units right away, this will easily break any cannon in a matter of a few minutes and it forces the other player to start playing and not keep upgrading.

There is some special boxing tricks that i might show later.

Im not the best at 1v1 tho, ive only played 20 games, i have 15 wins and 5 losses so far.

OMG a Nexus Wars TL Thread :D

Man I play NW a lot, especially during ladder breaks and it's addictive as hell. Glad to see some discussion here.

Right now I am trying some rushes, especially 30 sec units rush, like this:

Zealot
Zergling
Roach
Sentry
Roach
Sentry
Hydra x5
Stalker.

Very strong, especially if you are synced with your teammate.

BTW, NW community is growing a lot. There are some clans dedicated exclusively to NW. Arcade is in good health I guess.

What's the unit that can do a gigantic storm. I think it's the twilight archon, but I can't seem to get that unit. I make regular archon and then I click the twilight archon but then nothing happens.
