it's a waste to get robos out early. much better to get double forge and faster too instead of such an early robo

Observers are everything. This build is a million times safer and more flexible with a robo. What if your opponent goes mech? You're screwed without a robo. What if he does a weird ghost cloak build? Screwed. What if there's banshees? What if he drops everywhere? You'll never react to every drop in time unless you have observers placed in key locations.

The 1 gate expand robo isn't specific to this build, it's just the way you open in PvT.

Yes it is.


There are some maps where you just can not prevent drops from happening like crazy, for example star station. If you avoid the obvious drop spot (high ground near third) you will always get in and you can even win the game with the frist medivac timing, because the protoss just has no units beside the MSC and some zealots...

the amount of warp prisms in the picture on the frontpage is slightly misleading xD

Btw: If you let your observers that are positioned to detect incoming drops (i.e. on the sides of the map) patrol a small area you can detect even a wider area. The area the obs patrols has of course to be small enough not to miss a passing medivac (like 4-5 fields on the grid)

Yeah and it would have been better if you hadn't quoted that either

Anyway, i'm glad you guys enjoy the guide. Bring on the terran tears!

This is great. I remember in WoL I used to love early templar plays because the majority of Terrans I came across didn't know how to handle it very well having automatically assumed colossi first, sometimes even faking out with a robo forcing a bunch of vikings. And then it became a question of whether my opponent could get enough ghosts fast enough and then my micro vs theirs. But I never had a proper build for it I'd just wing the whole thing and hope.

Great to have a proper build order.

This is a great style, but be careful that if the Terran knows how to scout it and goes for ghosts and has good EMP micro, you better have your transition into colossi ready. Unless you're a pro at splitting your templars and/or flanking
