mid diamond level TvP game, with my 1st time trying out this build. ![[image loading]](http://www.gamereplays.org/community/uploads/repimgs/repimg-33-145445.jpg) On maps with close air rush distance, this build is SO strong. But on maps with close rush distance, i think it may be better to do an early poke instead of hellion drop. ie, use this build here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=149215 Tricks i did this game: Scroll camera to find the standing OBSERVER :D http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=149641 THANK YOU MEMBERS OF TL !!! :D I played pretty badly this game, a lot of sloppy play left and right but the strength of the build carried me THROUGH. it wasnt even fair.... i wish i had a PDD at the battle, it wouldve been SLAUGHTER. | ||

I roasted like 12+ probes too. But even so, that just seemed to put us on even footing. He consistently had an equal army to mine. I guess the only thing I coulda done really is gotten more marauders instead of marines. | ||

the hellion drop didnt do too much damage, but gave me a lot of info on his unit composition vs protoss FE, with mass warp gates. ![[image loading]](http://www.gamereplays.org/community/uploads/repimgs/repimg-33-145634.jpg) | ||

After the first hellion harass, I siwtch Barracks to reactor, starport to tech lab, and begin next expansion. During that time, I get a tech lab on factory and put down 2 more barracks (one with tech lab, one with reactor). End the game with a stim MM, tank, and raven push. | ||

Has anyone tried making a single raven with your banshees for PDD mineral line harass? That was the idea that was in my head the whole time watching these replays. Looks very versatile, looking forward to trying it out. | ||

ive been trying to familiarise myself with this, so Ive used it against AI only. Up to hard its really easy, bot just harrases a bit then its fun time. In very hard however, bot rushed a robo facility without obs just immortals. I had a bunker set already and 4 marines(maybe could have poped 1-2 more but they wouldnt have helped that much), but by the time my medivac was just outside his base(and when I switched second starport onto factory's starport), he rushed me with 2 immortals 4 zealots, 1 sentry and a stalker. I didnt micro well cause lets face it, I panicked a bit  , and it was gg for me. In hard AI the very same part was easily defended(1 immortal and a couple zealots less). I could probably time it a bit better(even though it was executed OK and I wasnt supply blocked for more than a couple of seconds, constantly training scv as well). At the current time mark I dont think any opponents at my level would even consider harrassing like that ignoring the observer(had it produced an observer I would have dropped hellions and have produced 2 bansh myself), but, say some1 is idd rushing that soon, how should we counter it with some excess minerals that we have? Building a second barrackes, tech to maurad insteed of just marines, or just make a second bunker at the time you check robo, just in care to be sure? | ||

is this viable? are those 20secs vital? maybe that 50gas expended its too necesary or will delay the banshees? (watching ur replays i've seen that u reac 1 barrack and leave ur factory idle, so with this u just do a swap) | ||

A little consumer feedback, I've used this build in every tvp for the past several days and I haven't lost a SINGLE one! Love it, now if iEchoic could just release his super secret tvz strategies I'd be set. On that subject btw, gratz on beating Phoenix in the GGI man, game 2 was awesome. I'm rooting for you. | ||
