At close positions push is good.

And what's the problem is Terran is only turtling and trying to harass? PvT is so much easier then.

Macro to 150, get 4 stargate carrier. Macro to 200, get mass arbiters.

Btw, 2 fac vult into expo is really popular still -.-

When i play terran i slow push

its fun


to beat turtle faggot terran you either have to be better overall or abuse the godliness of carriers.

i play pvt vs turtlers like a countdown. I have so much time before the terran can overwhelm me on land. I need to be set up and ready to go with game-ending units like carriers or arbiters before this time runs out. Harassing him buys me more time. Doing heavy damage to his first surge buys me more time.

If you know he wont come out of his base, devote all your resources to expansion and harass protection. You wont be going on the offense for a bit, so take the time to secure your position. Part of securing your position is throwing up 3-4 stargates and a fleet beacon

if you're having trouble with that 200/200 army, bring like 6 templar along with you on your next crusade. Keep obs around his base, and whatever troops you have in position (When they're not preventing harass). when you see him moving out, move in! tanks and vultures that are bunched up (like they are when they're exiting a base..!) are easy to storm.

What i try to do is cover his shit in storm, then back off so I don't lose TOO much.

more often than not what will happen from here is you will weaken his push (a blanket of storm does ALOT of damage, and near-death tanks don't fight well), buying you a liiiiittle more time.

if you luck out, and you stop his push dead (not likely, but hey it can happen), you have a huge advantage. as soon as it looks like your troops are fucked, back off. Carriers should be on the way, and you'll have a much easier time from there on

You won't win a land battle vs a turtle terran unless your micro is far superior to his push abilities, assuming you both have similar macro.


On another note, keep an eye on his base! if you see somewhere you can sneak a shuttle with two templar in, do it! scv loss is devastating to turtle terrans, and will buy you more time.

you guys overestimate the necessity of harass. sure temp drops own bu ttoss macro should rape the shit out of terran macro. you shouldn't be on a countdown unless you have 200 psi, then the countdown starts (if you don't have stargates and 20 gates, if you do, its over)
