How many SCV should i sacrifice for every additional OC in the Lategame?

How many SCV should i have at least?



after a little bit research i can answer my own question:

70-(4*OC)

Is the formula right?


That's pretty reasonable. Try not to fall below a certain critical mass of scvs, though-- you need some for repairs, building construction, and gas mining, even in the late game.

Stalker is between 4:05-4:15 ish usually.
620 just happens to be when you get energy on a normal OC timing.

Patrol split doesn't work in a real game scenario, as lings are so fast and close in you won't actually split. Learn to split by mouse and boxing, it's effective.

Stutter step -- I do attack right click attack right click etc etc

Scan protoss depends on gasses, how many, and expo timing if they do. I scan around 730-830 if I saw them FE, 6 if I didn't.

Then it's 1 base. 1 base roach = bunker? Get tech lab down, start mara + stim. If you see roaches, get shells first. SCV scout should see gas, and no expo.

If they roach after FE, it's simple. Won't be lings on the field, and they will have mined more than 100 gas. Also, if you hold and get a banshee out, you practically win. Just delay their 3rd, snipe a queen and some drones, get siege + stim and CS and push on 2-3 tanks and win.

The problem is how to scout it and how to defend with ONLY 4 hellions, 2 marines and 1 madauder.

Is anyone struggling with ling infestor TvZ still? I got quite a few reps of a demuslim like timing push that just destroys ling infestor. I'm finding MKP style mara/marine/BFhellion to be just so disgustingly good against zerg.

You can put on constant aggression, and no fear of mass lings. They 1a lings? Sac your army, and micro the hellions to clear them all out.

I'm doing this +1 stim CS marine marauder hellion push, into 5 rax 2 fac fast third, delayed starport to put on constant pressure on the ground and deny the third and heavy droning.

It's quite nice.


thanks for the replays

Bunker on top of your ramp should hold this pretty easy. Constantly repair your bunker with scvs on auto-repair. Maybe keep the second banshee at you base to help. Hellions do pretty well against roaches actually if they are all in a clump on your ramp. If you are scared and think you can't hold with one bunker, get a second one, better save then sorry.
Production should go on as normal, constant scvs, marauder out of the rax and more production/tanks. (ofc everything is delayed due to bunker production and micro.

What opening did you do again? Scouting roaches is simple...hold map control until the zerglings make you leave. Note when he got gas, most times same time or before pool. Note the fact ling speed ISN'T done when he takes map control. Harass with hellions outside his base. See the roaches. Threaten to bypass and run in, try and buy time. Make a bunker. If you already have a wall started, as you should, try and finish it, or at least finish more of it, and the bunker. From there, just get a marauder in the bunker, repair it, and attack move the roaches.

Here's a game I played on EU where a zerg went roach ling -> roach ling bane -> roach bane over and over. Easily stopped by scouting, and a wall.

http://drop.sc/158117


Not the exact same as what you're asking, but shows good principles on how to defend. Roach after FE is very common, as it 'checks' reactor hellion to see if you went double reactor hellion / banshee off hellions with no marauder/bunker, 3 CC reactor hellions, gasless FE -> hellions. It's a great 'check' and doesn't put the Z behind much at all. For me, I take map control very early against Z, and try to hold it as long as possible. You can see the roaches coming if you have your hellions placed right, out on the map. A bunker can usually always get up in time. If not, use SCVs. Attack move, and then surround, hold position. Hellions + marines + marauders all outrange roaches. Force him to target fire the scvs, then attack with them again, and hold position again. Keep messing up the AI as best you can.
