Terran Nerf Patch

What is blizzard thinking?
I mean, changing the Barracks requirement from Command Center to Supply Depot? I can not longer rush to my Flying Barracks because of this stupid prerequisite.
My favorite tactic has just been nerfed. I really hate this patch.
Just a rant guys. Looks like I need to learn how to use Thors, Corruptors and [...]

new maps

After a day’s work, I would login to my StarCraft 2 account and play my usual games before going to bed. I was expecting the usual stuff of rushing in to my opponent’s base and killing workers.
But hell no, this time it is different.
I just noticed that I am playing in a relatively new map [...]

Flying Barracks

It is impossible to hurt a turtle if it hides inside its shell.
A Terran player who hides behind his supply depots would be on turtle mode, making it impossible for its opponent to go in for the kill. Higher ground would also work for the defending Terran’s advantage.
How do you overcome higher ground? You use [...]

And so, the curse ended

We were vindicated.
The reason why we lost multiple times the past few days was because we were being matched up with higher ranking players. We reviewed our matches and some of them are ranked diamond.
We executed a very good TossTossTerran play against a ZergTossToss team. The zerg rush was no match and the early colossus [...]

The curse continues

We lost 6 games the other day. With our 4 losses last night, we got a total of 10 consecutive losses. A very bad curse is upon us.
Nothing is going right. Our triple 6-pool rush is not working. Our Pylon Cannon Rush is useless. Mass hydralisks is no match against a very fast mass marines.
Nothing [...]

six straight loss

Our team’s tactics aren’t working out too well. We have played six games and lost all of these games. Morale is very low.
We played 6-pool rush to make a comeback only to discover a new tactic that would defeat the 6-pool.
Let me call it a mineral line pseudo-bunker technique. (MLPBT)
The standard way of preventing the [...]

Too Many Walls

Too many walls have been built in between us
Too many dreams have been shattered around us
If I seem to give up they’ll still never win
Deep in my heart I know the strength is within

After being promoted to the Silver League, I once again played 1v1 quick matches. It is time to test my talents [...]

3v3 Zergling Rush Fail

In order for us to win 3v3 Quick Matches; Valentine, Boytigas and I would always use the Zergling Rush Technique. It is very useful and very efficient. At pool 6, we would already morph the 7th drone to Spawning Pool, and rush into 6 zerglings while our overlords would scan the terrain.
We were doing this [...]

Defend and Expand

I am a defensive player. I seldom rush my opponents because when I fail, my game hangs and I will surely lose. Because of this, I devised a way to increase my winning rate big time.
An early forge and photon cannon on my mineral line is my trick, whether I face Protoss or Zerg, my [...]

TossToss vs anytwo else

When I am online at night, I usually see my teammates online as well. That would make us create a party and do quick matches.
Last night was a 4-0 win/loss record night. My teammate was Valentine (because boytigas is nowhere to be found). We played 4 games of unstopable Protoss pair and had a battle [...]
