FFs easily separate SCVs from the rest of your army and they don't last long against Zealots anyway—and Zealots with +1 armor and Guardian Shield take only 2 damage from Marines on their armor. When executed correctly this Immortal bust is way scarier than what Tails did. I remember the times when this build was popular on ladder, there were so many posts in the Terran Help Me Thread asking for how to deal with it. People were losing even if they had 6 bunkers ready, etc. | ||

Gumiho retreats but scouts the third Nexus with a SCV Gumiho builds a Factory and adds a few Hellions while also building the Starport and Medivacs. Gumiho also builds a Bunker on top of his main ramp. 10:00min Seed goes for additional Gates and a Twilight Council with Blink research while Gumiho tries to drop 3 Helllions into Seed's main but gets scouted by a lucky Probe and that proxy Pylon. Gumiho also sets up an attack at Seeds third base. Seed defends the Hellions with Stalker warpins and pulls all his Probes at the third. He loses his third Nexus but cuts off Gumiho's army and kills all the units. | ||
