Aw..... saw the title and thought it was finally a solution to pvt mid-late game, but i guess the misleading title also makes tongue-in-cheek commentary on the current state

Whow, I'd never thought I'll see someone defending and even forcing an opinion, that some chezzy allin makes you a overall better player.
This is so ridiculous.
What next?
Photon cannon rush standart play?
Planetary fortress into proxy 7 rax?
Please do understand me correctly, this build is good in it's effectiveness, Geiko proved it when he tried his version of this.
I've tried it, and with no understanding of how to play Terran i've still won.
But for god sake do not delude other people that this is good practice strategy or it will get you to better understanding of game. No!
This is a cheesy allin, effective yes, easy yes, but in any other way than giving you some easy wins it's not going to help you.
Thanks.

But it IS going to help you, we need more of this on ladder or P is going to be collecting easy wins through superior economics.

Great guide, I enjoyed the build and especially what's critical to the build are the maps that you've chosen to veto.

Only reason win rates are supposedly even in TvP is because of cheeses like this. If everyone played standard, blizzard might actually fix their fucking game.

I do agree to change the title into "[G] The ultimate TvP all in - metagame exploitation". However, i think only moderation can do so. I've already edited the guide title though. Thanks for guide title proposals. Should be more relevant from now on.

The 12/14 version of this build that many koreans/Demusllim do is a lot better and not allin. This is just another silly build that gives bad players on ladder a bunch of easy wins.

pulling 3scv~ in any kind of push is totally acceptable, they fuck with opp unit ai. Bw terrans have been doing this for ages.

The 12/14 version only pulls 4-5 scvs, and if you feel you won't be able to do damage, you don't have to push and you can cut marines to get your cc faster.

so im about to share my success story today! i've tried this strat for to games now and i am 9/10 vs all races. i have the replays to prove it!

so if u want to see the rest of the replays just pm me. i think it is a viable strategy against all races. i have noticed(clearly) u do have to veto the 4 spawn location maps. but if u scout right it doesnt matter a whole lot. but i went from 53 on my ladder to 11th in the matter of an hour....so I LOVE IT!

This is a nice, detailed guide. I have a few questions/concerns.

What do you do when a protoss walls off his main with 2 gateways?
You also don't take into account the very popular Nexus into forge build that's been popping up lately.
Also, I don't like the misleading ambiguous title.

2 gate is pretty much a hard counter, given that you can easily get 3-4 stalkers and just kill off all the marines with minimal micro. Still, if you wall with them, that actually makes it easier for the terran to depower them before you actually get the stalkers up. I definitely don't recommend walling off like that. The nexus/forge build simply needs 1-2 cannons and all probes pulled, but that entirely depends on how effective the protoss is at scouting, as that build has some trouble in that regard. If they have probes in their main and only 1 cannon it's a free win, of course.

starcraft is also a game which you should enjoy. So the question could also be: Are you less frustrated in TvP now?

Sorry but TvP late game is too hard for (non grandmaster) terrans and really frustrates. I'm not using all-ins ever (seriously) but I can understand people who are just overextended against Protoss.

That's how it is. Remember the good old days where protoss 4 gated every second game...

So this is a good way to deal with Protoss if you face one at ladder. A fast and strong allin and then back to match-ups you enjoy more...

Yeah I've been using the 12/14 old TvZ 2rax Pressure Expand in TvP a while back, while making the rax @ 14 a Makarax (close to base but kinda hidden from normal scouting path), you're screwed if they read you and c/b Stalkers and you don't pull back and put up an expansion/bunkers in time though but it's a really nice build and throws Toss off their game. Plus the 2rax transitions nicely into mass bio.
After expanding you have to be wary of Collossi allins/timings and bunker up/get fast 2 port Viking production (as your tech will be slightly delayed by the 2rax) in time.
3rd edit lol:
This is very VERY strong vs Nexus First, while also doing okay vs 1rax FE if you force at least minimal damage and transitions into a macro game nicely.
"Good luck." "I don't need luck. I have ammo."
