Hey, a lot of your games are on shattered Temple. Can you post some matches on maps like Terminus RE or some bigger than Xelnaga / Shattered. I couldn't imagine to have a Death ball more powerfull than protoss usual DeathBall. Thank you for this guide !

as I mentioned before? how does this fare vs carriers??? after all, we all know vikings wont cut it vs carriers... specially with one reactored port, going carriers with a zealot heavy army and maybe stalkers? or phoenixs?

I have not tried this strategy in big maps such as terminus re, and I would imagine it would not work nearly as well due to immobility of tanks.

This build obviously would not work vs carriers. The key here would be to go for a timing push before he builds too many carriers. You can scout the tech he's going into by harassing/flying around using your banshees, I dont know where you got the idea that vikings won't cut it vs carriers. With sufficient move/attack micro of vikings you can fend off carriers.

I'm a zerg player, and when I offrace as T, vs P, i like to try to use a unit composition like this ^^ its really cool + fun to play with, and is very solid against all protoss styles. Great guide warden! Thanks for putting in the time to introduce many terran players to such a solid strategy!

Also, Gratz on joining 4Kings!

Can't you beat thor rush with DTs ?

You wouldn't be able to tech to DTs in time against thor all ins if you are 1 gate expoing.

How many tanks do you get with this build? In what manner do you use them? Offensively/defensively?

It would really depend on whether you are up against HT or colossus based army. Vs colossus army you would want more vikings and vs HT army you would want more tanks (and only 1 or 2 vking to provide sight for your army).

I also appreciate everyone helping out each other to perfect this build


You may take a bit of econ damage but if you delay it long enough you should be able to get the dts out.

So, I am about to try this, looks very very nice indeed.
1. My question is, is this viable vs Zerg? or maybe some tweaking....to adapt better to Zerg? Or it is just not viable vs them?

I'd like to see a Terran deathball vs Z

2. Why did you not always make a wall? sometimes you do, other times not?

3. Lastly, how do you decide when to make banshee or viking first? I saw your game where he had a void ray, and luckily you had vikings. So which to build first, viking / banshee?
Regarding the imbalance, hilarious to see Zergs defending themselves....

mmm is still what is strongest against toss. it gives harrassment options and rax units own gateway units. to counter the toss tech you either need vikings, ghosts, and at least even with upgrades. bunkers give you the option to taake a fast expand and get an early econ lead. the way i play tvp is the most efficient.

This guide is amazing and comprehensive - thank you for sharing it. Already it has improved my competitiveness against toss. My first game after studying the guide is a case in point. It makes me wonder why I hadn't explored 1:1:1 builds to a greater extent. Thanks also for explaining the various clues regarding protoss builds.

yo by the time your hellion scouts his 1 gate FE wouldnt you have already started your starport - and thus making it impossible to do the thor allin to counter it? Or can you only do thor allin when you see the FE with your scouting scv. Or maybe thor allin is possible with a couple starport units?

its very interresting to use the early hellion to scout again the toss to check what built he plays
the advantage of this built is
that you can adapt to the built of the toss and counter him
the unit combo makes terran army versatile against anything the toss has

the only weakness is

once your deathball is stoped and you lost the shees and raven
you never built them again
from what i saw
because you have only 1 starport and that is busy to built 2x vikings

btw i would to see a T v Z guide as well

If you are going to use korean phrases, at least get it right. A quick google search would show that "ee han timing" is the correct form.

Thank you very much for the correction. I can speak Korean fluently more so than English but I guess you had to let me know I wrote it that way to exaggerate and make the guide fun to read. But I guess you weren't amused Mr.Korean Professor!

Warden
