Because I'm a noob, I have been contained by T a lot. And I finally found a way around it.

Get an obs ASAP. Get a sgate and make one scout (you may begin flaming) and use the two to take out as many mines as you can.

meanwhile get 4-5 gates and make zeals/goons with range, (speed and storm too if you have time)

hit sieged tanks with scout(s). if they retreat then you push. if they dont then you finish blowing one up and then push. if t tries to make turret kill the scv. when you push use your scout too.

There's an answer to breaking terran pushes, but it's not scouts. All the money thrown at the scout which gets hard countered by a goliath could have bought more goons, or gotten templar and storm or something.

This guy is a noob. He gets contained by T a lot, but there's a way around it.
1. Get an obs
2. Make a sgate +1 scout. Use the scout to wipe out Terran minefield
3. Get 4-5 gates and pump out zeals/goons and remember to get range
*optional*speed and storm(only if you have time, depends how fast terran contains you proly)
4. Target fire the tanks with scouts to intimidate Terran into retreating. If they don't retreat, blow one up and then push.
*If T tries to make a turret, kill the scv
5. If scout is still alive keep it as vessel defense
