You could try turtling with mass planetary fortresses and missile turrets, moving out with 200 scvs, building 40 barracks and 20 orbital commands, drop about 40 mules on the gold minerals, and build 80 marines at a time until he runs out of resources (http://screplays.com/system/files/replays/1230/%5Bscr1230%5D(P)IamBrown_(P)Owain_vs_(P)cheng_(T)fatduck.SC2Replay)

A really fun 2v2 strat is mass infestors + mass high templars - fungal growth + psi storm is ridiculous.
good sir, you appear to be somewhat lacking in intelligence. please refrain from posting until this is remedied, since it renders your opinions slightly less than correct and has a tendency to irritate more informed forum-goers

You can actually get nukes out really fast .. I saw a game once where the player used nukes to kill a spire which was building.

Pretty slow spire, but I do agree that fast ghost play is very under-rated.

mass ravens is fun against anything. lay down a bunch of turrets behind them, so when you HSM they run into the turrets.

i managed to pull this off ONCE in a custom game, against a silver level player :\

Now im not to amazing at sc2. I wouldnt say im bad, but im not great either. More high level silver/low gold.


So i sorta have something else in mind.

If ANYONE at all wants to help out with this experiment, please do so.

If you get some nice replays, PM them to me stating what you did and i will add them to the replay pack.

Ghosts would be nice to put them on the defensive while you are building up a bio army.

Terran Mech.

After doing it, I stopped wondering why people were bitching about how bad mech is.
Mech is the only way to go in TvT.

I had a game where at a certain point, 5-6 reapers were able to snipe a few tech buildings really setting me back. It's technically possible if done at the right time.

Im also going to work on using ultraisks, mass ghost, hallucinate, infested terran mineral harass (like steppes of war natural), and i want to experiment a lot with mass reapers. I play protoss and I have used everything even archons vs zerg who go roach hydra.

Actually archons do alright vs roaches, i dont think they splash anything but they do 4 shot roaches at a decent speed and tank a lot of damage. Basically lots of cannons protecting against muta harass (tight sim city) and army of HT, zeaots with charge, archons. I make archons right after HT run out of energy.

I actually barely ever go stargate anymore now that phoenix is popular and countered -_- so i havnt had any use of carriers or mothership except a game or two where i had a huge lead anyways. But its very obvious that battlecruisers > carriers in just about every way.
Don't forget to get everyone you know to play HOTS so this game we love called Starcraft will live on. Every little bit helps. ^^

How does this work? Is there auto-cast/shift-queue to unload nedus?

TvP if Voidray: Marines into Vikings into Ghost / M&M and Medivacs into Tanks / Ghost
