Project 27: TvZ
(Bio) Instead of getting siege upgrade and tanks, get vult upgrades instead (mines and then speed). I'd imagine this would require a much higher micro ability, and would get owned bad if he got ovie speed really fast for no reason, but I'm curious to see what would happen if a player of your ability tried to pull it off.

First Impression: I don't see the point of vultures, since it'd get eaten alive from lurkers. Vultures can't kill lurkers that are burrowed or break sunken lines...
Results pending


Vultures + mines has become pretty standard it TvZ :O

yeah and they are pretty good against lurks actually. theyre cheap as dirt, can get into position (spread around lurks) quickly to avoid heavy splash damage and against medium size lurks their damage is OK given how cheap they are.

I challenge you to play a completely optimal PvT game where you play macro oriented and hit all the timings as professional players, and still win. I have yet seen a foreign player pull this one off, so good luck to you.

I challenge you:

1. SCV Rush
2. Midgame SCV harass a base in a TvT
3. Go carriers in a PvP

Any of the three will do.

Hahaha. Those plays were great!
For the challenge, I challenge you to do 2 port wraith into 2 base BC rush. You may build marines but they must not leave your base so it's for protection only! You may only build 24 wraith in total and rest of offensive units must be BC and SV (D-Matrix only)

Can't believe you won the tvp after fail fbat drops
For pvz you can do 2 robo 1 base with shuttle speed, should try it out, gotta manage well with scouting to not die to two hatch muta
I don't need luck, luck is for noobs, good luck to you though

In a tvz go for a 1 base 2 rax opening with a fast factory and no academy. Proxy one of the rax's and the factory near the zergs base. Build 3 bunkers and some well positioned depots outside of the zergs natural and build just enough marines to fill them. Bank resources, lots of them. As your pushing the zergs natural with a tank, build an ebay, an academy, and a command center not far from your bunkers. When the zergs mutas pop run your scv's out of your main and allow him to kill the few depots, the barracks, and the command center that remain in your base. Expand to the zergs natural with you new command center by pushing back the mutas with bunkers and turrets. Mine from his natural and use the ebay to give you vision of his high ground. Strengthen your contain with a few more bunkers, more turrets, and more tanks. Get range before stim. If the zerg tries to bust dont be afraid to retreat to the 3 initial bunkers ad dthen regain control of the zergs natural once he's wasted most of his army.

Finish him off with hidden 3 port wraith.

EDIT: It might work better with a proxy 8 rax opening. and only one rax total. How you want to do it is up to you.
Why would I play sctoo when I can play BW?

Matchup: ZvZ
Strat: 9h9p9o, hatch being in opponent's natural, follow up with sunken contain, get hydras and spores before he gets mutas, follow up with ensnare and eventually plague and dark swarm.
Effects: The player will BM you, claim that he had sex with your mother and you like dudes, whisper you after the game etc etc.

Sadly it's over, but it would be awesome if you went PvT, MC'd an SCV (make sure he doesn't know you did it) (not sure how to manage this though..), maybe with 2 arbiters (recall a DA with your army into his base, then recall the MC'd scv back?), and put down your own mines right next to his so he goes insane wondering if he put that mine there or not
can i get my estro logo back pls
