Today i checked out ur build and been very succesfull with it so far 12:4 in my last tvps also tryin ur ForGG Tvz build but only had 1 vz since i red ur threads there i had the common insta gg as the banshee cloaks xD 1st time my opponnent actually did go dt's never seen such failed dt's =) I had a game whre i couldn see a real windo in atacking and he delayed hes expansion hardly so i expanded quit fast and kept on harrassing with hellions got additonal raven and use the one with energy for additional harras worked out quite well P could never establish 2 base eco and i got the game completly in my hands. He made a push after my harrasments startetd with 3 immortals and a bunch of gateways units thx to bunker banshee and pdd not a problem at all thx alot for u work ! | ||

When you do the drop before the large push, should you try and kill as many probes as possible, or try and keep your hellions alive? I remember Day9 doing a daily on MMA (or was it MVP?)'s style, where you would harass with drops/hellions, but the objective was NOT to do damage, but to take NO damage. Similar reasoning here? Poke at probes, but load up and run before the stalkers kill any hellions? Or suicide the hellions or for maximum damage? | ||

My main question is, after the gas steal, how would you know whether he is 4-gateing or early expanding? If he contains you at the bottom of your ramp with stalkers, do you just scan for the expo, and if you don't see it, throw down two more bunkers? Not going to post the replay unless requested (because I played terribly), but suffice to say that the 4-gate hit me right as my medivac was going into his base, and I didn't pull SCV's fast enough to repair the bunker. | ||

Like 5 more wins TvP... this build is a miracle... Also to people who think collo will counter this build: your hellion drop will be able to spot the robo or bay most likely and if you do you can just hit a quick timing and your banshees will be able to deal with the collo nicely. | ||
