All you need are tanks and strelok made a thor which was 1 less tank, then lost a tank so he was down what could have been a couple more tanks which is huge. The reason Idra attacked was strelok took a greedy third and lacked in the tank department (only 2 tanks when he should have had more). | ||

Thors do well against muta, but not really great against lings. He really needed that critical amount of tanks to deal with lings and banelings, especially banelings. He was just being too greedy on tech. | ||

The reason Idra attacked was strelok took a greedy third and lacked in the tank department (only 2 tanks when he should have had more). pretty sure even with 3 extra tanks he would have lost to that push. thats the huge weakpoint that exists when a terran takes a third that fast, and also tried to make turrets around his base for mutas its almost smarter to not build 10 turrets and just make 3 (1 in each mineral line) get faster raxes and put 8 marines in each mineral line so at least those marines can fight in the big battle | ||

Spend 400 on Turrets instead, camp your army at your 3rd, only build turrets for the main/nat | ||
