I tried your build and there are many things that can be improved imo. First I would try to finish the wall before the probe comes, so that the P player can't see your going gasless fast expand. It avoids a lot of all-inish strategies by the P player. In your games, your harass is quiete limited imo, you're a little too passive and doing only macro. I think it's possible to harass more with hellion's mobility / banshee without committing too much. I feel constant harassing / scouting with helion gives precious information about what the protoss is doing and makes him uncomfortable to leave his base. Thanks to you I rediscovered how 250mm cannons were insane vs immortal. I also feel that upgrading armor is better than upgrading weapons. I'm not sure how non upgraded marines help after 13 min game... Maybe tech-labbed rax with 2 3 ghost is better in case of storm / archon. This delays your push for sure... Not sure what is the most efficient... | ||

Also, your replays use a lot of different compositions and different attack timings with little explanation of your reasoning for making these changes (except for the main 2 base timing you focus on in the OP). Right now, you have proven that you can beat master level protoss, and if the point of the thread is for you to convince people that you can do that, well done. But if you actually want people to be able to learn and give constructive criticism (hell, maybe even figure out ways to make your build better) you need to put in some work. Here are a couple of examples of guides that are better formatted. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=308972 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=241247 I like the idea and I would like to see it tested, but right now I think a lot of the people that would have good input won't read it, because the OP is so gross to read. | ||

I think most of guides are made too simple or too title-ish. Sort of like an easy look-in guide to use when in game. If you are used to reading books it takes a quick blink of an eye to read it. But if you would want the guide to be top notch, as Mr. Black said. You should work on it, just a little. | ||

Still not convinced of this build, seems like most competent Protoss' would just build cannons and high templar then win. The way you come out seems like it is a personal thing. And especially the caps on "really". It makes it harder to take you seriously. Although I took you seriously the whole way through this thread. If you play Toss can you show some replays when you beat this build? I play random. And I want to see some good strategies to beat this build because ironically I am actually losing a lot of toss games vs this strat lately. ![]() (I am master league Europe. If my knowledge sounds limited. I can tell you that my macro/mechanics is by far my strength. And my strategy/decision are my worst by far) | ||

The only mech builds i know of are sea and gorapadong (beautiful timing attack). Sorry for being slightly off topic, but it would be nice if people would experiment more with actual "mech" instead of just massing thors. | ||
