Yep, BB is *th*e gayest map. But my friends who play BW suck bad, and that is the only map that they play (other than ums stuff). I could just scv rush, but that beats them EVERY SINGLE TIME (literally), so I try to do something else. I'll do 8rax 9depot with bunker. Thanks!

I just realized how gay this whole thing is... I don't attack early on *so* I won't win every time, which let's him win. I don't even want to play them... so I'll scv rush. Fuck them.

He's right for the most part, bunker by cc is not as safe but slightly better, I think just scout early, if he say 8/9/10 or 8/8/9 then you should just play defensively until you can tech and then win. Early game is the only time he can really kill you, once you get say like siege tank, you basically have entire map control XD

Do not play zvt on bloodbath
too easy

make a sort of wallin with depot and two barracks (if you consider going bio, which isnt that stupid)
then you can lift the barracks and place a bunker (dont forget marine range if you are teching to tank fast)
generally you can make that broken wallin, which helps you to defend vs zealot+cannon cheese

generally you can either go 8depot 9rax 10rax
or 8rax 9depot 11rax
academy when you have around 10marines (no bunkers), gas when you have around 12
2medics, slowly stim (or range if he is going mass goons), firebats if needed
3rax (you may skip)
factory

usually you dont need a bunker, however it may be useful

going 1barack->fact probably cant be done without some sort of wall (you can micro 2racks marines vs 2 gate zeals for some time, but not 1rax vs 2gate)+bunker (range? if he isnt stupid he will make goon range, so you need marine range and it means that you should have gone bio anyway)

Ill search for some replays to see how my opponents play (I play random on blood bath)

play like you feel, not like others tell you, or you see in replays -_-
maybe it wont be the best method, but it will be a bit creative
I have returned

Bunker at cc is worse u can do . Protos get canons faster they u get tank so don't bunker at cc, u can try some wall, but whit bunker (u can't make valid wall on bb).

8brax/9 depot/10 brax and micro like mad against the zeals

If you do any sort of tech or bunker build you will lose to any halfway decent toss who makes cannons.
All I want is a kind word, a warm bed, and unlimited power.

8 rax 9 supply You dont need a bunker if you micro perfectly.Carefully form a line with scvs and attack if he tries to make cannons.If he doesnt tech to stim and medics ,but not too soon.You gotta have like 15 marines or so.Well, I suppose a very well timed marine/scv rush will be best.
MadFrog : In my opinion, the biggest reason why WC3 is dying is because it is not such a great game as Brood War is.

8 rax, supply at 9 blablabla.

I usually try to "Wall off" my mineral line with the rax and suppy depot so my marines pop out on the inside with the scv's. Of course there's a big enough hole for the rines to get out and the zeals to get out. Usually this is enough since it forces the zealots to figth inside a field of scv's under marine fire and that doesn't work to well. If you micro a bit the zealots die. If he tries to cannon you collect all scv's, lift rax and kill it. If he doesn't mass marines from 2 barracks for a while and continue to mass as many scv's as possible. Then before he can't get goons take everything and use your scv's (your going to have a bundle) to kill him. If he tries to cannon up to prevent this then don't attack, instead stop scv production, get gas and bunker up untill you have siege tank. Your siege tank plus the biomech (you allready have rines so only add medics) will kill him since there's no room to really do anything.

While on the topic: Is there any way to really win vs toss when your zerg? I tried 5 pool and that didn't help. I haven't tried 4 pool, it migth be fast enough but on the other hand they see it coming from miles away. I can win vs idiot tosses who goes fast forge because then I just get another hatch and power like crazy untill I have lurkers. (Still pool before the hatch tho.)

ya if you scout zeal cannon u have to 2 racks, but id still bunk by cc to defend against the 1st zeal, not have to take scvs off mins to defend. and if u try to zeal/cannon vs 2 racks ill rape u with rine/scv. Try me ^^

whats the standard b/o for zeal cannon ive never done it..
must be pylon, gate forge pylon cannon while pumping zeals?

ur gonna end up with 2/3 zeal vs 5 rine and 10 scv, so.. ur not gonna get a cannon in.
