If you fast expand you want a overlord over the morping hatch. If you can be close by air you want to scout this. If you need to know if the toss is 4-gatin you, you want to put the ovi in a position to scout this. In other words, you dont have zatic's back, cause this is a situational question! | ||

How many units(hydras/zealots/zerglings, I know it only hits about 1 on larger units) can a colossi hit per sweep? | ||

To prevent early, early expansion to those locations. In other words, you need a few extra army to break them down before expanding there. I disagree that low level players barely take their natural, unless you are referring only to the absolute bottom of Bronze League. | ||

I am being serious, I have been Silver league since I started playing and it is very rare for my opponents to Fast expand let alone take an early 3rd. | ||

Blizzard put the rocks at expos because they want you to expand to your natural rather than a gold. As far as delta quadrant is concerned I guess they don't want you to be too safe in expanding as far as the early game is concerned. | ||

The reason I do it this way is because I do a 3/3 split (I know it doesn't matter) and if I Send workers, split workers, then make worker the constructing worker is behind by a bit. | ||

Well, now you're saying "Fast expand" whereas I was disagreeing with "barely take their natural". I agree there isn't much fast expanding, but most will expand, maybe a little later than they could, but still not to late they are running out in their main.

It's important when executing build orders to send the worker early so they are on top of the spot to start the building exactly when you have the minerals to make it. | ||

It will begin dropping units one by one. You can change direction and it will continue dropping. Needless to say, applies to overlord and warp prisms as well. | ||
