I use this 1/1/1 build: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=253098 Says you should scout with the first hellion. So what i want to know, do P players think its a tell for a 1/1/1 if they see a T player scouting with hellion? | ||

Why do we almost never see mech in TvP? I've been doing the build Day9 showed on one of his dailies (the mech in tvp daily) a few months ago and it has been working out great for me. So yeah, how come we never see pros go mech? | ||

Mech currently has great potential to become a standard way to play but has not been refined so things like mobilty are often abused by protoss players. Thats not to say terrans wont find a way to deal with it but for now people prefer to stick to the proven bio ghost viking composition. | ||

My opponent built a pylon and 2 gates near my base and I had zealots incoming @ 3:33. struggled with that before, too its important to scout it. always check for proxy locations for example on shattered temple at your gold. as soon as you scout it go fpr a second gateway. further imprtant thing. pull probes! your opponent is behind in ways of economy, so you "can" lose some and still are equal economywise afterwards. i kept not pulling probes because i thought i would be too far behind in economy if i pull probes. but its necessary | ||

If you go 14 pool and hatch after 2 sets of lings its not such a problem since the lings will finish the pylon off fairly quickly, if you want to hatch faster than that you can take another base (check for cannons though) and take your natural after that, e.g if you were going quick third counter FFE. | ||

Maybe the hatch cancel roach build where you build a hatchery to fool the protoss, save up larva whilst denying scout with speedlings and then cancelling hatchery to build a bunch of roaches. Works sometimes against FFE. | ||

It's a bit complicated by the fact that the series can go 2-0 in favor of one player, but if we assume they played all 3 games, the expected distribution is: 0-3: 6% 1-2: 29% 2-1: 43% 3-0: 22% So you expect the player with a 60% winrate to take the series 65% of the time. | ||
