MC's 1 gate FE shouldn't lose the expo to a 2 rax unless the guy pulls 12 scvs or something. | ||

Also you shouldn't have 2 stalkers and 2 sentries only. Assuming you warped in the 2 sentries, you should have one more gateway ready for an extra zealot. That force can easily clean up that bio army. The replay vs mvp in monk's thread is very, very good to study early game defense. | ||

Colo die so fast to the Corruptors and then the roaches tear up your stalker/immortal. If you go Templar, roaches just laugh and kill all your stuff anyway. I'm a bit frustrated about this. Top 8 Diamond Toss and just can't seem to beat this composition no matter what. You should post a replay. If you have stalkers and immortals, with good forcefields, and blink you should not lose to roaches unless you are super behind in upgrades or get majorly flanked. . | ||

Top 8 Diamond Toss and just can't seem to beat this composition no matter what. Why do you need AOE to kill roaches? Just about anything kills roaches as long as you forcefield decently. If he maxes on pure roach corruptor, you should thank him profusely and then run him over. | ||

Like it was said above, you should post a replay. | ||

I've heard that quite often now but somehow it never really works for me. Because somehow I always get completely obliterated by mass marines/stim.. even if I have +1/+2 etc.. I'm bronze btw. | ||

On the other hand, this doesn't mean you shouldn't practice builds at all. Following some basic guideline is important (for example, in PvT you should fast expand and then get some AoE up vs his bio). | ||

I mean, you're not gonna win a game with mass zealots vs banshees, lol. But I could veeeeery likely beat any bronze terran with only zealots if he goes for standard MMM. And I don't consider myself to be very good  | ||

Any of this executed by a Master's player would beat anything up to Gold consistently. | ||
