11/11 proxy rax == "The metagame revolution!"

Somehow I doubt. Sure it's good for a few cheesy wins, but you can't wall off, so a good toss will see the difference between an 11 rax with scv cutting vs a 12rax with 15OC.
Theory is when you know everything but nothing works. Practice is when everything works but no one knows why. In our lab, theory and practice are combined: nothing works and no one knows why.

While the idea of 11/11 is not new, this is a very well written guide explaining the step by step execution and reasoning behind why it works. It is not simply "hurr durr build 2 rax and a-move", but tricking your opponent into assuming you are 1-rax expoing and punishing them for assuming too much.

Due to heavy emphasis on TL,net that 'macro' is better, I find that I don't actually know how to cheese without a starport when I play terran (cloaked banshee rush).

Thanks OP

Came in thinking it would be a cheap guide without much detail......

Left with a powerful TvP build to use in BoX's.
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Metagame revolution? The -only- thing widespread use of this build will do is train Protosses to analyse the SCV count properly to accurately discern when a cheese is coming. Basically the same effect any half decent cheese build does. So while the people using this build arent really getting any better, they are training their opponents to play a tighter, more informed game. Basically all you will get is minor micro practice and a few cheap wins (if that). Have fun.

...

I don't even...

Why do you fail at reading (or even looking at gigantic pictures!) the part of the OP where he made GM and is top masters with this build.

I just tried this build tvp, tvt AND tvz. Got me 5 free wins in under 30 minutes. Problem? I think not.

Thanks for the detailed execution.

What? Why so much hate? If this build has a 90% winrate it means one of two things. Either The OP is very good at the game or the build itself is really good. I'm guessing the latter since its a rush and he says himself that it's quite easy to execute. Who cares what it is. If it has a better winrate than playing standard then why not do it?

And if you say it takes no skill etc etc, it's still a good tournament build for sure, especially if you know your opponent is better than you. Thanks for putting in the effort OP. Wish I played terran so I could try it myself.

I don't really see any way in which this is preferable to a 3rax. :/ And when you say that sentries are the worst thing to make against this build, you're clearly wrong, because he can just forcefield the ramp to keep you out, which means he's mining and making units and you aren't.

Did someone mentionned BitByBit yet ?

It was already said but saying one will revolutionnize TvP metagame by presenting a cheese build is .... misleading at least. Plus I personnally dislike Guide on all-ins build, as it does not help me grow as a (gold) player.

Seems like an effective way of cheesing, similar to Geiko's build. I commend you for that.
However, it is what it is - a good build for ladder wins, but neither "ultimate" nor "revolution". I doubt we'll be seeing half the TvPs in pro competitions boil down to it (which is what I would expect out of ultimate / revolution / etc ).

Aw poo I thought this was an actual guide to macro play, not a cheese. Nice write up regardless, though a bit misleading.

Im high master protoss myself, and I experienced this BO on ladder once. This build is pretty good but any smart protoss would look at your scv count and from there deduct its an all-in. He just walls in with 2 gates while he keeps chrononing his normal gates, and eventually pull all his probes for a fight aswell and win the game. This isn't ultimate, it's just some kind of undiscovered cheese.

I've just noticed the following sentry analysis:

Sentry is anyway the worst thing to do against this build. They deal almost no damage. The building time of a sentry (42 seconds, 21 with chronoboost) lasts more time than one force field (15 seconds). That’s wasted time on a gate. Stalker is a much preferred unit (more damage, faster).


Since patch 1.3.3 sentries take 37s to build instead of 42. Also, when chronoboosting something the total time doesn't get cut in half, but rather reduced by (at most) 50%.

if you think that a marine scv in 'will change the meta game' you are sadly mistaken my friend, should be easy enough to hold

Sadly I have to agree with this.

Offal, you're the guy that plays random and cheeses every game right ? I think I haven't lost a single time to you out of the 4 of 5 games we've played

Nice guide but "metagame revolution" is pushing it a bit However I do appreciate the amount of details you give. Good job.
