I was experimenting with this build earlier with a few teammates, and it's obviously quite strong on short distances, but it is defendable on longer distances, especially if your opponent scouts it. So ya, proxies rock. Anyone have anything, or even better a GM level player doing it? | ||

Faster 3 Rax proxy attacks feel stronger in TvT and the proxy 2 Rax which Boxer has down to an art form feels better in TvZ | ||

Well, since u get an marine out u can deny scouting very easy, and it's very rare for a protoss to just make 2 random cannons.. oO | ||

A few stalkers work just as well and with sentries completely nullifies this. 6 Rax comes out pretty slow compared to other silly stuff. | ||

So ya, proxies rock. Anyone have anything, or even better a GM level player doing it? hmm, i'll have to try it some time, but maybe lifting your racks to the low ground could be good, it'd cut down reinforce time a few seconds and not leave you with barracks too far away from your main, against zerg it'd set you up nicely to expand with a nice wall or barracks... Hmmm, off to ladder, just have to worry about roaches I think... | ||

I guess roaches and banelings would be good, but how do I even know if this kind of thing is coming? Well, the fact that they didn't get gas would stand out to me as a touch fishy. After that... get lucky? | ||

Of course, if you know it's coming, you can use a non-standard build (like forge first) and it will be ok with a wall and 2 cannons, but what can be done after a classic "gate-robo-gate" opening when you were not able to pass the terran wall to scout, and you only guess it's coming after you poke with the first stalker ? I know there are several threads, and advices about this, but is there a replay somewhere where this kind of marine push is defended ? Some people says "don't use sentries, only CB stalkers", some others say "just do some FF", so what ? Could you just show me a demo ? If some Protoss is able to defend this, I'm ok to play as Terran so he can show me ! | ||
