Although, if you know your opponent doesn't wall in, you could also try a proxy 2gate | ||

I would still be wary, but I'm sure you knew that. As far as builds, I'm a Z, no help here, sorry :b | ||

Mcs gas first 4 gate void ray all in is strong once you practice the proxy stargate timings. He used this versus MKP in the gsl world championship on crevasse. | ||

Depends on their composition. If there are banshees, I would use stalkers. If there are tanks, I would have more lots. If it's a ton of marines, I would throw in sentries. But yes, constant VR production with the gas is needed (unless there is a banshee rush, then chrono out pheonix) | ||

So play your standard game and see how you match up, how you need to improve, etc. Even as Masters, knowing the rank of my opponent basically dictates whether I marine/scv all-in or play standard. Against a diamond I don't want to spend 15 minutes and then crush him, just get through to the next round quickly. I suggest proxy 2 gate because he will most likely all-in you himself with superior micro. | ||

So play your standard game and see how you match up, how you need to improve, etc. I feel relatively well with my macro, however early game timings are my weakest point in pvt. I currently have a 76% win vs terran, and all those losses are pre-10 minute timings. Essentially I plan on playing standard g1, but if I lose, hell why not bust out a cheese? ![]() ALSO - does anyone remember a game recently where a EU toss played a EU terran in a bo3 and did proxy voids both games? (one game was on shakuras, other was on shattered temple) I want to say it was naniwa,,,, | ||

10 Gate 2 Probes w/ 1 Chrono 12 Gate 2 Probes w/o Chrono 14 Pylon Zealots! When your first Zealot gets there, see if he walls. If so, you need to gas immediately, stop zealots momentarily, and make a CyberCore. From here, you can start making Chronoed Stalkers (throw down a third gate at some point) or go into 3G blink play, probably not what you want to do. If not, throw down a third gate and keep rallying Zealots to ze minerals. | ||

Also, void ray rushing, even by proxy, may not work if he opens 2rax MM or 3rax cheese. I'd be really cautious about that one. | ||
