That crushing feeling you get when no korean has ever cheered for you ;_;

Would love a recent analysis on some TvT if at all possible, no recent games come to mind however

yes, yes, i agree the matchup is quite stale right now. I also have only been working with mech in my tvt's as well so my motivation to cover a bio tank vs bio tank game is little to none right now


Would love to watch a mech analysis, especially regarding how they open into it safely, again I can't think of any recent games that illustrate it well, maybe in the future


Whatever is done by ForGG, that should do it

hmm i dont agree with some of what he does, but if he plays any tvts recently like for wcs i think sure why not

For maps that are less favorable for CC first on the low-ground, would you suggest using it to wall with your barracks, similarly to how people CC first-ed at the start of HotS TvZ?

no, if you scv scout you can generally see a 15 pool on 2 player maps and make a bunker in time, otherwise just pull a couple scvs and you shouldn't lose one.

Not really any benefits of walling off with cc that you don't have by putting it on the low ground, it is a very adaptable build similar to zerg's hatch first it can be done almost every game without fail except against like 10 pools

Awesome, also I take he is cutting x2 more hellions to get his infrastructure up at a better time, but is this not pretty dangerous? Was it a map based thing or from what he scouted?

not dangerous when you are getting banshees, not map based and don't need to scout anything, first banshee and hellion poke should confirm if its roach bane allin or not (in this game, he saw the crawler), if you sniff something fishy going on just leave the banshees at home

Part 1 of Innovation vs Flash goes over a little bit about openers in the early-mid game part of a game plan.


Part 2 consists of some intricacies between unit compositions (sky army vs ground army)

Thanks for the videos, I didn't know about these before today but you've put together lots of helpful information.

One of the biggest problems I have (and I'm sure a lot of other Terrans have) is how to deal with DTs in TvP. Say you scout an early twilight but don't know if it's blink or DT, when's the best time to built a turret? If you have an ebay and no turret, what's the best way to respond once DT reach your mineral lines, and if they have a warp prism. Is it worth building a bunker with turret just to be safe in the lategame?

against dt expand after FE, turret needs to start around 6:50, a little before 7 mins. Vs dt drops, you need a blind turret in your main by about 8:15 i believe is the time, or if its after blink you cand elay it for about 30 seconds i think.
If a dt reaches your mineral lines, it depends what you have available. If you have a scan or almost a scan you can box them in and surround them but if you don't have any detection, your jsut fucked
