It doesn't. It's such a rare thing to face, that it was okay to take a blind loss here and there from proxy marauder from the abusive gay cheese that is this build.
Unbiased biased terran abuser Jeffrey. Sorry for the rage, friend!

Soooo... sure this build works if your terran opponent goes one of the listed openings. But I get owned on the ladder every time a terran just goes one base bio. He get's three rax and pushes with a handful of units. If I follow this build I only have two marines and maybe three helions at that point. GG. Even if you scout it coming, not a hell of a lot you can do about it.


Sad stuff.
Whoever said "winning isn't everything" probably lost.

this build isn't really relevant anymore with the BFH nerf, and yes you will always lose to early bio

He plays MMOs. I played with him and Psy in Rift for awhile wouldn't be suprised to see him in Swtor now.

I was wondering, how do you break tank contains with this build? Marines safely positioned behind tanks would kill your banshees, and tanks would kill the hellions that are supposed to kill the marines. I haven't read all the comments, and I was just wondering what you'd do vs a 200/200 Marine/Tank composition that is well spread out and is slow pushing you?

I dont think this BO works today with hellion nerf,and vs 200 Marine/Tank/Medivac comp there is nothing to do,but try to catch him off position and kill him sieging before enemy.TvT is so sad and boring.No real good alternative BO.Marine tank medivac,just cover it all,and u dont need anything more,and there is nothing to do.

This build is pretty bad nowadays. Loses to both straight up bio and straight up mech.

Builds these days are more well tuned and are better at defending against banshees in general, which this build revolves around. Fast thors from a mech player as pokebunny said just murder it no problem. In the early game there just aren't enough banshees to out dps a thor with a few scvs repairing

Hi, bumping this because MaruPrime brought skyterran back pretty successfully against Alive last night. Here is the VOD http://www.gomtv.net/2012gsls3/vod/67538/?set=6 (It's Group B set 6 Up and Down).

Alive scouted the fusion core during construction, and scouted with banshee harass. Maru starts off with 3OC in his base, and keeps them all above the ramp until its safe to expand, and I think that he believed his tanks marines and pulling SCV's would be enough to stop early aggression or banshee aggression, combined with really fast replenishment of SCV's and mules. Maybe Maru pulled this build up because Alive doesn't often go straight up bio or mech (or possibly he can defend against non all-in aggression from bio or mech)?

Edit: In the midgame Maru was very very patient and slowly turret pushed in two locations (first at the central xel naga tower, then near his opponents base) and made a ton of OC's. His strategy was to contain Alive on 3 base, and it worked out really well.

I tried to watch the vs. marine/tank push (vs. sixto) replay but the replay doesn't work for the China version of SC2.

Can someone explain to me how he holds it off? How many marines, tanks and medivacs arrive at his ramp at what time?

I tried to execute the build, but I just died to a 10 marine/1 tank/1 medivac push that arrive at my ramp super early at 6:30.

Does anyone still use this build? If so, how does it work with the new patches and maps?

Is there a safe transition into this build from Marine tank? or at least 1 rax FE into this.

Not really all that viable anymore, since it relies on a few gimmicky things to do dmg, banshees and blueflame hellion drops. People now recognize that and do better vs that. The unit composition early game is good vs any tank hellion marine marauder mixture, with proper micro.

I'm not a Terran player, but he told me the nutshell was that it is super vulnerable to a thor transition, if you try to transition to it you will be behind the opponent. The more common transition was BC, which absolutely destroys thor. The problem is it takes longer to transition to that, so terrans would see the build, and hit a timing with thors that this build simply can't handle.

If people wanna tell me im wrong, go ahead cuz I dont know but that seemed like it made sense to me when I was told that.
