I thought it was the other way around? It's not a big deal, but I was just wondering if that was right or not. Pretty sure it's a bug. | ||

Thank you. Pretty subjective. "Standard play" doesn't really say much because 1 rax gasless expand is standard, but so is 1-1-1. The replays you want will be of players who you model your own play style after and nobody knows that better than you. MMA is considered by many to have the best TvZ, but his drop heavy marine tank play is difficult to emulate because of his superior multi-task. MVP has some great mech play in TvZ and TvT, but again his style is very difficult to emulate. I've found that its better to look for someone who may not be the "best" but rather someone who is good and has a style that is basic, simple, and easy to execute (like Thorzain's TvT or Bomber's TvZ). | ||

Sometimes i run by a bunch of lings (20+ or whatever) into the enemy base and start attacking the workers. If i find some zelots (for example) in there they'll start attacking them first before the probes, and if there are 3 or 4 zealots it can do almost no damage. I mean, honestly i'm just A-moving lings at this stage while i go do other things, but im just trying to work out what is the most effective method. | ||

Most common way is to move command them into the mineral line then hold position, the lings will only attack units within melee range so as long as you have them reasonably spread out they'll get most of the probes. This also has the added benefit of being able to be queued up before hand even before you can see the probes. | ||

For those of you that naturally use the F-keys, how did you first force yourself to hit them? I know all I need to do is... do it, but any advice/tips that would help me break the habit? Slow mouse scroll to the slowest it can possibly be. I don't use F-keys, but I'm sure that will help you do it. | ||

Specifically he said that I should utilize the strong cheese potential of the protoss race. Question: Where can I find a comprehensive guide/discussion of established Protoss cheeses in PvT/PvZ | ||
