Following forces with similar speed, when does it fall down? 1. It will still go there (As a small tip: activate the option to show Experience Points during the game. It will show those XP even in the fog of war, when enemy units die.). You just need vision when the HSM is launched. You can run your Ravens away then. 2. When the HSM is launched, it will hover in the same place for 5 seconds. During that phase a unit can run away. If it gets away far enough (range 13 from the HSM), the HSM will drop. As soon the HSM starts following a unit, it will always catch that and never fall down. | ||

Select your whole army then shiftclick every medivac and your troops will automaticly load up in their own seat. Kind of if you shift click on a bunker then on another place of the map you'll notice only 4 supply will run towards the bunker while the rest goes to your last click. | ||

Seiging the natural? What makes a good macro marine/tank style? I assume you're talking about TvT? Well TvT is, as many people call it, a game of positioning. Siege tanks have incredible defensive potential, but are immobile. By being active you get dibs on the map, you can call the shots. Say the map is Sejong, u spawn south he spawns north and both are on 3 base econ. It's really hard (imo) for Terran to adequately defend the third and the natural simultaneously. If you are threatening the third, he has to fortify that area, and if he puts a lot of power there it opens him up elsewhere. You can move and poke the natural, if he fortifies that you can siege the main from the lowground on the far side. Basically if you are proactive you force your opponent to play reactively. If he mis-positions or doesn't adequately respond to your army you have the opportunity to capitalize. That's basically TvT: look for weaknesses, cracks in his defense, and then exploit them to gain an advantage. Additionally, if you are forcing your opponent to play defensively you can secure more bases without having to worry about him attacking them with his main army. | ||

Gotta specify that for shift clicking medivacs to work you need to only have the army selected, not the medivacs | ||

This is the best way, I would like to add that if your units are blocked or surrounded by lings or something they won't load into the medivacs. I shiftclick the medivacs then ctrlclick the medivacs and fly over my army to make sure the pick up all the units, even those who are blocked | ||

Bad unit control really. For instance you keep stimming your entire army in situations where you should only stim small groups of units, and then you amove your entire army after that which destroys your split. Then you try and split after that, but they are not that good. Then also note that while you may be up in bases at some point in time, there is no reason in hell why you should be it as you do not drop or do anything from keeping your opponent to take outer bases. Also note that during battles your mines aren't being a part of the battle. I suggest you simply focus on moving mines forward faster and and stiming smaller groups of Marines. When you have improved that part, you should consider dropping a lot more in situations where your opponent could take bases fore free otherwise. | ||

I quit sc2 along time ago to play diablo 3. I know :/ but i'm back! My only problem is, I always played zerg. Never touched terran before. With this 'comeback' I also want to change race... After playing some protoss and terran vs ai, i decided to play terran (for some reason, i just really don't like to play protoss). Since I'm pretty new to terran I was hoping to find stuff here, but when i was looking at the OP it said Q. What are the standard recommended strategies per match-up? [Updated as of 26/11/2013.] Is this stuff still (pretty) valid or do I have to look somewhere else for a solid BO for TvT, TvZ and TvP (I'm looking for something macro-wise, nothing fancy timing push or all in... I really wanna learn terran and am not afraid of losing a lot of games because i'm trying to macro and not cheese/all in my way to high ranks) | ||
