TvZ General Tips part 1 and 2 are up!
This is a new kind of VOD where I go through general tips on Terran vs Zerg. It doesn't include a real game or a special buildorder or anything like that. Its just me sitting on singleplayer and giving tips while i try my best to demonstrate visually.
Many of the tips are pretty basic, meant for beginners but there are also alot useful things for the veteran.
You can find it under "extras".

The VOD ended up being almost 1 hour and 20 minutes so I've devided it into part 1 and 2.
It might not be the most fun thing to watch, but if you want to learn I think it can be very useful.
As I said earlier, I'm also saving my season 8 iccup reps from now on and will try to execute the strategies I've put up in VODs and then release reppacks for each Build.

Buildorders and replays for march 2 updates will be up soon
Enjoy!.

TvZ 8Rax Mech Bo-VOD and TvZ 2Port Bo-VOD is up!!

Note that to get the best coverage of a Build and how to execute it you should watch both the Bo-vods and the game-vods. THere are some things that I have left out for the gamevods. But since Iccup is down I haven't been able to record those yet.

I will be adding a new feature aswell. I will not only upload the replays of the VODs but also a reppack to each strategy of games that I've played using those strategies on Iccup.

After armory is finished make 1 or 2 goliaths depending on if you lost marines in the start. Right before all facts are up make sure you have two scvs making supplies constantly. Move out when your first round of vultures are out (5 vults) and make another round and rally point them to where you will push. Small tip in the beginning, when siege mode is upgraded take 2 tanks and 4 marines and move to your main, leave 1 tank at the expansion. Mines+tank will usually be enough to have time to react and move there with the rest and its very good to have 4 marines+2tanks in your main to defend vs DTdrop or Reaverdrop since your whole base isn't going to be covered with turrets.

Pull two scvs off gas once you've reached 100. Never stop scv production in the beginning, if u have not enough minerals for both scv and marine, make scv unless you notice that the protoss is making an early zealot.
Scout pretty late, usually as the barrack finnishes.
When factory is finnished, pull back scvs to gas and take 2 off again once the first tank has started building. Then put back scvs on gas again when you have started making the cc.
Make 8 marines total, 2 tanks, 2 vultures rallypointed. Research mines after you've started making your second tank, you should have 200 gas after the first tank is finnished.

This build will give you a low eco, strong 2factory push with scan and turrets when you arive at his main. After the initial 3 tanks, make vultures only and attack when you have 3tanks 1marine and 4 vultures, rallypoint your vultures to his base after that. Be sure to bring 3+ scvs aswell, bring more if you want to really go all in.
You will have about 85 energy for your first push, when scan effect is gone it will be close to 100 so basically you will have 2 scans and he cannot defeat this with darktemplar.
Ebay is finnished when you arrive at his natural. Make turrets there but remember to make a turret or two at home vs reaverdrop. If he decides to drop you, keep attacking, if he doesn't go back to defend he will lose.

There are other versions of this strategy where you skip the marine and add the academy at 21 suply. I think 1 marine is crucial vs early probeharass and i dont think you need that fast academy because that will give you 100 energy when you move out and after the first scan effect is finnished you will have like 60-65 energy left which is not needed. Its better to keep mining with the scvs for a while.

If you scout him doing something like 14CC or 1Gate expo and you get enough information that you know he won't use dark templars, ofcourse you wont need to make the academy, same goes if he doesnt make robotics, then you won't need the ebay. The build I described here is the safest version but you can adjust it to what the protoss is doing. No academy leads to more marines or scvs, same goes for no ebay.

Enjoy!

This strategy counter 3hatch muta into 3rd exp and hive.
If he hasn't started upgrading to hive when you scan before you move out, add another vessel instead of dropship and move out when vessel is finnished. But before that scan again, if he still hasn't started hive wait for the 2-1 upgrade and move out with a huge army towards his natural. Hotkey 1 2 3 4 5 and use the rest manually.

Take in concideration that i kill my own scv, marine and the vultures+dropship after doing the drop to get these suplycounts. They should be accurate for any real game scenario. After taking gas in your expansion add 2 more factories. From here do a 4 factory 1-1 timing push add another expansion and then make 2 more factories. Once the expansion is running add another 2 more facts to make a total of 8 factories. I talk abit more about ebay and academytimings in the build and gamevod of this strategy.

Take the scv making the second suply and scout with him at 18/18 to make sure if he 9pools or 12hatches. Use 2 or 3 vults to harass his expantion while rallying the first two wraiths to his natural. Rally 3rd and 4th wraith to your natural to snipe his overlord. Make a total of 6 wraiths before making a controltower. Be sure to not only attack his drones but also scout if he moves out and his tech with the wraiths. If he 2hatch muta you must add Ebay pretty early and then follow up with aca and rax, if hydra second rax when you can and then academy+ebay and then third rax to follow up with m%m preassure.
Be ready to bring scvs and repair wall if he attacks with lings. 3 scvs is enough but take a 4th just to be sure.

2 marines from the rax + scouting scv makes it 18/18 but but they will die so don't stop at 16/18 before they're dead to make the factory. If they are still alive, make fact at 18/18 but be sure they die in time for the fact to finnish since you need 16/18 to make the first vulture. If he goes speedlings stay in base until speed is finnished otherwise rally them outside his base directly, forcing him to spend cash on sunkens. From here make CC when you feel safe and then another 2 factory to do a 4factory push later on while taking a CC, or make 4 factories to do a 6factory push without taking a third. If you do the 6fact push be sure to stop producing scvs before macroing from all factories.

vs 9pool attack when you have 8 marines. 9pool speed with 10 marines. 12hatch with 6 marines. At any case rally point the rest to his expansion. Attack sunkns that are finnished with scvs, and lings/drones with marines. Keep marines out of sunkenfire and use scvs as good as you can to block drones/lings from attacking your marines. Works best at closepos but also viable on farpos, there will be reps of this.

B. Discussion, tips and pointers: + Show Spoiler +
First off all I wanna say sorry for not being able to record a VOD of this yet. I don't know how to do it in Vista...

Ok so this is the recent strategy flash has been used as his standard strat vs 3 hatch zergs for a while now. Its safe and based on preassure to minimize mutaliskharass and to take out zergs third base.

Scouting:
+ Show Spoiler +
When you do this on a 4player map its a good idea to use doublescout. That means that after the first barracks is finnished, you take that scv to scout the remaining location.

If you don't find him on the first try you should make another marine and then still pull an scv when the first marine is about to finnish because you will be able to scout a second location with the first scv in time to see a 12hatch and then cancel the second marine and place the CC on 18, or he will build a bunker there if the zerg did a 9pool without gas. Then just make the CC with him after the bunk is finnished while you block the ramp with 2-3 scvs.

If you don't find him in the first two tries, the scv making the barracks will scout him and that will be after your second marine is out so then you'll have to place the CC on 20. Remember to pull back one SCV as soon as possible so he can make a suply at 22 in the natural.

This build is designed for 3 hatch muta, there is ofcourse adjustements that will work vs 2hatch muta but I will not discuss them here, thats for later.

Its important that you use your initial buildings to make it harder for zerg to lingrush you. The most important building here is the third suply placed on 22suply. This is best placed in the natural to make a small choke 2-3 marines wide so that you don't need a bunker unless he's really making alot of zergslings. Remember that skipping an early bunker means a faster second rax or refinary or whatever.

Here is two examples of how you should place the third suply in order to survive early lings easily. And if he has too many lings you can simply block with an scv or two and start making a bunker in front of them.

For other buildingplacement tips you can check out my other thread or just watch progamers TvZ games to see where they put their buildings. Such as Flash.

Main goal with this build:
+ Show Spoiler +
The main goal is to get enough units out early to force zerg into making sunkens before his mutalisks are finnished and then to take out zergs third while you tech fairly fast towards the 3 tank 1 vessel push and be safe from mutalisks.

What to think about and how to follow up:
+ Show Spoiler +
There are some different ways of executing this build. The two main things to talk about is how to react to what the zerg does in the early stages of the game and if you feel that his mutalisks will defend his third or attack your main. This information will be given to you by your scouting scv.

The third barracks:
+ Show Spoiler +
If you see 4 lings being made and then drones, you can cut marines at points of the game to faster build your third barrack and sometimes second aswell.
Thats why i put the third barracks on 34-38 suply which means that if you constantly make units from both barracks and scvs from the commandcenters you will make it at 38 suply and if you skip some scvs to make the third barrack you will make it with the scv just finnishing the second barracks. This you can do if you see no more lings being made from your opponent.

The important thing is that the third barracks is made before the academy is finnished. The faster you make the third barrack the less units you will have when you first move out to force him to make sunkens but the more units for the second moveout where you aim to take his third base.


The factoy:
+ Show Spoiler +
When you first move out, you should wait for 2 medics from the barracks and then 1 marine and one bat. This means two productionrounds after aca is finnished. Then its time to move out. Right before the second round is finnished, start making a bunker for any backstabbing attempt, this is included in the buildorder.

You move out and preassure the zerg. And you take an scv with you to scout for expansions.
Now if you know there is an expansion up already you can just move and take it out because mutalisks wont be finnished just yet and then you can focus everything else on surviving the obvious conunterattack. This means you make the bunker and start making turrets before the factory.
But most of the times you will just preassure him abit and then move back to reinforce the troop with new units made from the 3 barracks and then move out again.
After this your decisions rely on what the zerg will do and how the situation is.

So the factory/turret follow up is basically devided into two parts.

Part one, mutalisks defensive.
+ Show Spoiler +
When you move out with reinforced troops, this will be about 20ish marines 3-4 medics and a bat or two, you will try to force the zerg to be defensive with his mutalisks. You can move in a way towards his main base first so he really needs to be defensive and you'll have more time for unitscount to grow at home and then turn towards his third to kill it. Zerg will only have mutalisks and lings at this point.

If you feel that your tactic is successful and he's trying to save his main/third from your units, you can put up a factory as soon as you have 100 gas after starting to upgrade the +1 attack from the ebay. After you've started making the factory you can also start a refinary and after that you start making the turrets.

This will lead to you making a factory then startport then sciencefacility with the same scv.
Since you made the factory so early you can not afford to add more barracks until after the starport has been started. When its started you can add 2 more barracks. Be sure to make a second ebay when you start making your sciencefacility and upgrade siegemode only after the vessel has been started, both upgrades for marines are started and the third tank has started making.

Now hopefully the zerg has no early third and you will have a 3tank 1vesselpush at about 10min+.

From here, focus on the attack while macroing at home and adding a second startport and 1 or 2 more barracks. More than 7rax 2port from one base is very agressive and won't give you the opportunity to expand so easily.


Part two, mutalisks offensive.
+ Show Spoiler +

This means that he will not try to save his third and you will kill it. If you know this in time by scouting or whatever you can just click on ctrl 1 for group one then shiftclick on 4-5 marine and set the new smaller group to 1 and bring home group 1 2 and 3 as soon as possible. Then 5 marines will take care of his expansion while the rest of your units will go back to defend.

If he is offensive with the mutalisks. You will not make the factory before turrets. This time you make turrets before factory, preferably 2 at the same time on 3 different spots to cover everything. Remember to put 3 or 4 turrets instead of two at the spot he's most likely to attack first.

Since you delayed the factory you will have more scvs at this point and you can afford to put up a 4th barracks at the same time as your factory has just started. From here follow up the same, with 2 more rax being made when the starport is about halfway done. And the refinary a few seconds after you've started making the factory and 4th barracks.

So the difference between the two is basically that you get another rax up if you place turrets first, but your vesseltiming is pushed back abit.

Imporrtant: Notice that if you force zerg on the defensive. You might not need all the turrets as his mutalisks will not head for your base. If you can get away with about 4 turrets total, that extra cash could be spent into a 5th barracks when the factory is building to make the push even stronger when the vessel arrives!

Terran vs Terran
+ Show Spoiler +

1. 1 Fact FE (Standard vulture opening)
A. Build Order: + Show Spoiler +
9 suply
12 rax (can be proxied in the middle for faster floatscout)
12 gas
15(late 15) suply
16 fact -> machineshop
16 2 scvs off gas + 1-3 marines.
22 CC
23 suply (scvs back to gas when machineshop finnishes)
26 speed
30 fact
34 suply
35 mines
42 suply
52 suply (6 vults -> move out)
55~ 2 Fact (add machineshop and start making tanks from the first 2 facts)
55 suply
57 gas (expo)
60~+ academy + armory
80 ~ after starting to build 4th and 5th tank upgrade siege mode
90+ After 7 tanks make third expansion, add ebay and after some time add 2 more factories. Totally 6 fact, 2 machineshops. Vults+Tanks and goliaths if needed.

This is a pretty standard TvT build where you open vultures with speed.
Ebay, academy and armory timings are all adjustable ofcourse, since it depends on what the opponent is doing. Same goes for the switch to tanks.
For example if he keeps making vultures, you dont need to add refinary at expansion so fast and you can keep make vultures from 4 fact 1 machineshop. If he adds early port you need faster armory+academy.

The general idea of this build is to gain mapcontrol in the beginning, forcing him to play defensive.
After you get mapcontrol with mines, you add another expansion and goes for a tank contain while you add more factories and get airdefense. From the 3 bases you will most likely be able to have 3 gases, 6+ factories and from there improvise.

I will cover how to adjust this vs different terranbuilds in the [G]Terran FAQ thread ofcourse.

You know a better way of getting an empty game is to kill all but one of a computers buildings and then save game after you get your minerals down to 50 and have killed all but your cc and 4 scvs. You can then save your build at different points and work it out faster.

You do have fewer minerals in your main if you do this though, although you can lift off and go to another main if the map allows it I suppose.

How do you deal with a 9 pool when you make the TvZ 9minPush's build with the second supply at 16? It seems to me that it's pretty much auto-lose to 9pool if you scout the zerg last but I assume it isn't since if it was 14 CC would be a better option.

This is a fantastic tutorial for any Terran between the ranks of D to B. This build order is precise, the timings are perfect, and if you take the time to study and practice it, it can instantly improve your TvZ by a rank or 2.

Great job, Stylish. =) <3

zep - you block your ramp with SCV's. tbh I don't know if rax scouting against zerg is a good idea on a 4 player map, but then I'm not sure about the timings of it.

oh and generally if I depot scout I'll make a second rine and expo on 19 above my ramp with a 3 scv block. This always works.

I can only answer this then i need to go to bed.

If you scout his lings, dont make the CC on the spot, make it in your main and make more marines instead of scvs. If you cancel you scv production you will be able to make 2 more marines right after the first one. However if you scout him on the last position its going to be abit tough, but its also tough if you make the 15 suply and have 2 rines instead of 1 vs 9pool.
1 marine expansion is one of the most standard builds.
If you feel unconfident in your micro you could scout on 11 and also make suply on 15 just in case, the total timings wont differ that much in the end.

May I suggest adding "får jag fresta med ett samlag?" to your swedish vocabulary. A fancy way of asking for sex.

Onto the topic: Really liked the informaitve step by step explanations. I prefer playing lan vs comps and I think if you want to play without any opponent at all you can just remove the comp during countdown and the select "continue play" or whatever it says. Atleast I think that should work, trying it out asap.

EDIT: It worked.
