EPTBCS, a thor or two... and ghosts/nukes .... since basically no one gets ravens in TvT and have to spend like 95% of all scans to scout tank positions ghosts are super good

Edit: ah i misread , well yeah well BC's is possible but well you'd need some serious economy to do that. BCs are terrible unless you're already winning by a good amount in which case they can be used to just end the game a bit quicker and look flashy. If you're about even then your opponent gets to crush you whilst you're trying to make an air force. Marine/Tank is really popular because it's the best composition in TvT. | ||

Both players were trying to push into each others siege lines and drop each other all game long, but each one failed over and over, so it extended each game into 20-30 mins. If one of them played pure defensive while teching to BC behind a siege line, it might of worked out well. | ||

If you have seen QXC play TvT he transitions into harassment units when the game gets stale with Tank/marines. You will often see him go for a few reapers/banshees | ||

No reason to give your opponent a timing where you're weak if you can stay ahead the whole time. Alive at no point had an economy that could support BCs. I should say that I think there are other things for players to do - late game banshees, ghosts, reapers - but in terms of your actual "army", marine/tank is best. | ||
