I'm in masters if thats relevant at all. And no, I really don't feel this push is strong. Without stim or blue flame it's just gonna die to zerglings. If I know its coming i can deny it pretty easily. Of course if you don't see it coming, you can be in trouble, but that can be said of basically all terran aggresion | ||

The first push basically needs to do a ton of damage, and the rest of it is just formality at that point. | ||

I don't understand why he wouldn't know a thing or 2 about BC rushes. I've been getting kind of bored picking the same race every game and if I ever consider playing terran doing these kinds of things seem like they would be fun  Unless the guy opens tank viking and doesn't die to the inital harass it seems like this could be pretty potent with the speed increase. I've seen terrible people in master's. That proves nothing, and this seems like just another "Oh god, i hope he doesn't scout this!" tactics Still, respect for making it work and i hope it grants you more wins against unsuspecting zergs. | ||

What do you usually win with? How often to the BCs actually change the game? Do you usually win or lose the game after the drop or banshee harass? | ||

Don't get me wrong, I really like the idea of using flying units in tvz (at least it isn't marine/tank), I would love to see some replays! Sunstrider | ||

I went for mutas and that was a huge mistake as they deal zero damage to battle cruisers. Fast hydras is probably the right answer, even though I don´t really like that you need such a long time to get up mutas if he decides to expo instead of allinning. The 'right' answer is a quick lair with immediate infestation pit after lair, followed by neural parasite to steal the BC and fungal growth to deal with the marines. This is quite rare, and it's probably too late by the time you scout the core. User was warned for this post | ||

As for the build its self i think it is a very cool build for the reason zerg does not have very powerful anti-air early on, around what time does this build hit and is there any follow ups? Have you tried taking an early expo and then continuing this build? | ||

top 200 with 70% success? sounds great :D I've seen terrible people in master's. That proves nothing, and this seems like just another "Oh god, i hope he doesn't scout this!" tactics uhh, that's how tvz works? if the z scouts something then he's in advantage, if t denies it then he's in advantage; there isn't much of a middle ground | ||

I will say pre patch ( assuming this is post patch which it looked like from the replay )... the correct response to this build is mass queens since you can kite the BCs really really easy... obviously not the case post patch... still it doesnt take many hydras or corruptors to shut down this rush... I'd even do as far just massing roaches as soon as I seen the fusion core... if I scout double starport tech labs I ALWAYS go hydra den and skip spire because 2 port banshee is so annoying and easy to shut down with Hydras... Again never played this build post patch but pre patch this was easy to deal with... I sat in the high 3k area of masters last season. | ||

In order for your BC antics to do anything you need a very successful harass. But then again with a very successful harass you can win with just about anything. This thread should be renamed to something along the lines of "kill someone with marine/helion harass and finish them off with BC's cuz BC's are cool". | ||
