However certain builds require a late scout | ||

On maps with 4 spawns you can delay up to your core; on maps where you can be proxied (anything that doesn't have 4 spawning positions really) i think assim scout is ok as long as you check the proxy locations first. | ||

I'm mid diamond. Any help would be appreciated. From my own experience, once a Terran has stimpack upgrade for their units, you're going to have a hard time forcefielding them in. It's still possible, but if they run away as you go to place your forcefields, you're unlikely to catch them. The best way to catch them is to push forward, they'll run away, then back off, and then when they run at you move back and then try to hit the FF's. | ||

Assuming you want to play macro games, http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=292549 and http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=287970. There's more guides that are worth reading though, the best ones are those written by the blue posters  | ||

I wanted to know if YufFE build (http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Gate_Nexus_YufFE) here is a viable build in people's opinion. Sorry, not sure if this is appropriate to post here or start a thread on but I dont know much about it to start a discussion even. Basically want to know what people think of this build in terms of: 1) Safety compared to 1GFE and FFE 2) Economic advantages compared to 1GFE and FFE 3) Tech advantages compared to 1GFE and FFE 4) Difficulty in execution compared to 1GFE and FFE It sounds really interesting but wanted to see if high master/GM players have tried this out with much success! Thanks a bunch guys | ||

For instance my attack hits around the 8:30 mark assuming zerg gets a third however what I follow up with here is hit or miss, I follow this +1 zealot pressure with robo twilight into dt drop while taking my third. However, it is here where things get wonky sometiems zergs are going infestor ling just as my dts arrive at his base and at this time i try to gain scouting info for their tech assuming i saw no roach. When it is infestor ling i get stomped because of the infested terrans when i try to go high templar it seems difficult to actually control any space with my army because zergs get aggressive before I can get storm/my third up any tips? don't just stick to Hero's ffe. you gotta scout and adjust your unit composition according to their composition. Also, be aggressive first so that they will be defensive. That way you'll have a chance to land your 3rd and have the storm. | ||

I was wondering do we have a guide on 2 base 1/1 sentry-immortal allin? Something like Elfi was using in a game with Stephano in ASUS ROG. | ||

I scout well too, I just don't understand or process the information I get properly. I tend to play safe and afraid of losing, so I don't look at what my opponent has and think I can kill him. | ||

I have a really hard time defending against 2 Rax pushes that slam down 2 Bunkers into my attack-path, which totally screws the Unit-AI. I have a really hard time targeting the constructing SCVs as long as they are "inside" the building. I know the shift-spam trick but it takes a huge amount of APM to prevent my Army attacking the bunkers, order the Probes to attack the SCVs without missclicking and keep warping in. Example Game: http://drop.sc/122224 | ||

When I watch my replays a lot of times I'll have a huge supply advantage and I just macro away and take more bases instead of outright killing my opponent when I have the opportunity. I scout well too, I just don't understand or process the information I get properly. I tend to play safe and afraid of losing, so I don't look at what my opponent has and think I can kill him. I suffer from this problem as well (190 supply vs 100 and thinking I'm behind) and the best way I've found to deal with it is try to estimate supply in the middle of the game - then check the replay afterward to see how close you were. Alternatively, just attack and see what happens. Worst-case - you lose horribly, but you know not to do that in the future. I'm pretty sure I've lost more games due to being ahead and not realizing vs attacking when I'm not actually ahead. | ||

It's worse when you successfully hold off Terran aggression and then either counter-attack late (because you wanted to "get more ahead") or pull out of your counter when the Terran was on the brink of breaking because you thought you weren't doing enough and he had one more bunker left. >< | ||
