i can theoretically see T being strong on BB but i don't know the strats to really take advantage of this. i'd like to know how to lose with T less, specifically with openers and what kinds of things force a T reaction. people say BB is simple with no strategy so hopefully people can post this kind of thing.

Hi, I was wondering how T>All on BB? Like, what build should terran do, how is it > All? I assume something like 8 rax rax depot and a timed attack with scvs against zerg or what? For T>All on BB should T kill zerg before they get lurkers? and against protoss what does T do on BB? just 2 rax with a better economy and get tanks to control the middle?

because you can't attack or expand after a T gets defense and tanks

Its easy to push with T. Basically you just have to tech to tanks without dying. vs zerg u do mmtank and vs toss its vult/tank.

you just have to counter their build in order to survive long enough to tech. If the zerg fast lurkers you can just bunk/turrent at your choke move out with mm/tank/vessal.


If protoss 2 gates before gas then u go 2 racks, make sure u dont die to zeal/cannon, and make sure u get tanks before he gets goons. this means u need to scout well to see if he goes core or forge.
I want something good to die for, to make it beautiful to live.

Can T build wallin on BB? If not P could proxy zealots and delay terran dramatically with his tech.

lol proxy?? maybe if you scout him fast and make ur gates in his base, otherwise make them just insude your choke. either way though fi your rush doesnt work you're pretty much dead.
gate in his base into ranged goon might work well. even better if you hide it and go 1 gate 1 forge zeal/cannon. once the first cannon warps in its almost GG.

One advantage for protoss vs terran is that you can't build turrets in the middle. So if toss has more DT than the terran has scan you can see why tank push isnt that good of an idea. mines will rape his own troops as well and cannons can protect from vulture raids. I'm not saying that p>t but I don't think its all that easy for terran.

mines wont rape his own troops if you place them in front. especially ez to push horizontally or vertically.

just do a 2 rax rine pump (you can do 8rax x2, 8depot), and scout well.

if he doesnt rush, right away then u bunker at choke while getting gas. pump as many rines as possible without falling behind his tech. you want your first tank very soon after his first goons finish.

while hes zealot only you should be able to scout his tech progression no problem.
if he gasses get ur fact up asap.
if he doesnt gas just make sure u can hold an all out zealot attack if you need to, pump rines from both racks according, and only tech to fact when its safe.

gas timing is the best indication of hsi tech level. u need to watch out for hidden core/archieves/robotics/citadel.

the dangerous rush is zeal/cannon, which is why u have to pump from 2 racks early and be ready to use some scvs.

P > T on BB
zeal cannon rush is unstoppable.

T > Z by 8 rax (or whatever build best counters 4 pool, not sure exactly how quick you have to rax, but u can figure that out urself). if hes massing lings, get a bunk then gas and another rax, and fast mm. if hes doing like a 1 hatch lurker/ling just build constant rines out of 1 rax, keep rines inside of SCV's so u dont lose to a few speedlings, and get fast acad and another rax when u have the money. you should kill zerg with MM before they get lurks.

and T > T with 4 SCV rush

games on BB for me usually last less then 5 minutes. the reason why T>all on bb is simple.. scv's atck stronger then drones/probes.

T v P & Z-- send 1 scv to search, atck probe warping/drone morphing things in.. or just follow it around so the gateway/pool is really late. do a 7 or 8 rack build. then rally rines to his base. while sending 3-4 scv's; one building a bunker and the other 3 just protecting the building scv.

With the correct combination of fast rax builds + scv/bunker rush or fast 2 rax builds based on what you scout it should be very very difficult to lose. Vs Toss use BBS and attack with scvs for an all in bunker build at his pylons, he should not be able to stop it if you have strong micro. Vs Zerg do a fast rax at 6 or so then send scvs with first marine and micro. Obviously vs T it is balanced.
