I have always had a problem with my macro. When expanding I usually am slow to add on the proper production facilities to take advantage of the income boost. Generally I add either too early, when I should still be working on my army, or too late and I have a huge bank and a tiny army. When you guys expand, when do you add on more gateways/robos/forges/etc?

replay for sure. How can we instruct you on how to play better if we haven't seen you play?

Hey, I'd just like to drop by to ask the masters for some build order recommendations that outline a good proactive, aggressive-macro style build with a good midgame timing push idea, that will solve some of the problems P deals with in the current metagame. I really just want a game plan that will make me more aware of good timings to hit, what my opponent is capable of doing, etc.

So maybe one (or branches from one opener) build for each race, maybe with an annotation on what it's good against, what it's bad against, and what important decision making I need to do at what time to make adjustments.

I'd like to break my platinum plateau and find focused game plans that will get me into diamond or even low masters without cheese. After being in plat for a while I feel like that will be all it takes.

Sorry that this probably has been asked countless times

What are you guys doing in PvT against the MKP 2-Medivac timing? I've found that if I try to go to HT/Archon, the push comes before storm finishes and depending on the map and other player's micro, I'll hold about 50% of the time. If I go for Robo bay, they've already got a reactor-starport and can immediately start churning out vikings to stimy colossus production.

Hey i am posting here so that i can maybe dodge having to make a new thread.

I've been thinking of doing a FFE into 1SG and 1robo (with gates ofc) play against zerg because I am very terrible against muta play with HT and blink micro in defending and i can't ever get out of a defensive mindset so the zerg just expands everywhere over the map. i'm thinking/hoping the robo also helps me defend against roaches if he chooses to techswitch so i can have room to switch based on what i see.

Mainly, i just want to be able to defend against mutalisks without having to storm,split and blink stalkers to defend, send zealots to defend against lings, harass with DT, manage warp prisms, and macro at the same time.

If my idea for a build sucks or won't work can anyone point me to a build that i can open with that's not an all-in and gives me to room to wiggle in against mutas so that i dont have to have the APM a pro? Perferably something with SG so i can harass with pheonix and voids. TY

How do you guys adjust in PvZ when you FFE and you see the zerg expand with gas, and then confirm zergling speed? I normally plan to do some sort of +1 pressure after I FFE, and then am unsure of the best path once I see speed research.

3 hatch before gas? Go for stargate.

Where is the best place to download replays of Code S protoss players?

Some of them release replay packs here, but you could just as easily check out the vods at gom.tv.

Regardless, there are much easier replays to find from foreign players, which really probably make a difference if it's code S or NA gm at your level.
