Ofcourse you can go 1-1-1 opening before expansion but those are essentially all-in / very gamblish or you can go minedrop after expansion but thats basically a scout nowadays. We saw Terrans earlier go for minedrop with 4 marines but since that does nothing really they nowadays drop either 1 mine or 2 mines and try to get scouting off. Aggression early on (no medivacs) is basically shut down due to photon overcharge and other builds (1-1-1) if they don't flat out kill Protoss will potentially leave you in a economic disadvantage. Not saying it never works, but it does rarely enough and its very specialized to punish certain builds and is terrible against pretty much all other builds so its not worth approaching the game that way. Yeah, that seems to be what a lot of terrans are feeling. I know I watched a WCS NA game earlier this week were a terran went full man mode and just tanked the cannon and sniped the nexus. I think folks are going to figure a way around it or find that exact number of units that can get the job done even with the cannon blazing. | ||

The general timing of the 1 gate expand build is 2 more gates at 8 mins, 3-4 more gates at 9 mins and this is enough to hold all the timings up to the 2 medivac timing. I think Stardust lost in the game because he went for double forge too fast and so did not have enough gas to build units. | ||

If you scout it you at least can't go that much tech off one gate On September 19 2013 02:20 Swiipii wrote: My toughts.

It's a macro build with 2 rax instead of 3 but with fast stim and earlier marauders. Lots of potential to punish greedy protoss builds imo or at least force overcharge and keep them from being too greedy. Innovation vs HerO game 1 from Dreamhack is a good example. Innovation didn't do damage but he forced overcharge so HerO had to play safer. | ||
