Do you have a similar recommendation for Terran players as to what a great starting build to learn would be? I had a very similar idea that I wanted to focus on 1 BO only per matchup so I could focus on macro/mechanics. Thanks! | ||

If so: I've been trying to improve in this way, albeit in a way less refined form, but have recently hit a brick wall of sorts. Specifically, once I finally got over my denial of getting placed in Bronze League and made it my goal to take a game off a Master League, I chose MarineKing's 2 Rax FE as the single build I would work on as I improve my macro, micro, and mechanics. I had the most fun watching MKP in the GSL, knew it worked in many situations at a high level of play, and found it fun to play as well once I got started. But then as I started getting a little bit better and got promoted to Silver, and now to Gold, I've entered the territory of players who, at least in my experience, love to 4-Gate or Baneling Bust, or Cloaked Banshee Rush, and can actually execute the builds reasonably well compared to the Bronzes. At first, I was randomly matched against Terran and Protoss only, so at that point I told myself that I would just make the build work. And eventually I learned how to stop them, even though a lot of those games just felt weird for whatever reason. But once I finally started getting matched against Zergs, I've lost all but one game to Baneling-based play, since they always seem to hit me during that very vulnerable moment when my expo has just gotten up. Should I still try to make the build work, or should I add a second build? That one win against a Zerg was actually using MKP's Mech-based play instead... And how will I know when I am ready for additional builds? Thanks again! I am not sure exactly, but MKP's 2 rax expand might be either outdated, relies on doing damage to zerg early game, or works only on specific maps. I would not ever recommend expanding against zerg without getting siege tanks. The safer build is probably 2 rax harass, add 2 gas, get a factory and then move out. Or maybe you can do something else that transitions into siege tanks and then expand. | ||

This is the only thing that struck me as odd in the writeup that hasn't been addressed since my last read through. It feels weird while reading to say that you're going to quote something later. Quote it now, and reference it later as already having been quoted. | ||

They mentioned it while they were casting the GSL finals and then Tasteless linked it on his twitter account. By the way really like the guide, good read with some great info. Im taking my time reading parts of it at a time and trying to start working on them. | ||
