Experience Played since Starcraft Original. Seasoned player. Seen all sorts of tactics played and counters. I've played with people at the top level and also entered different competitions, winning prizes as well. My speciality is more in the 1vs1 area, though I've participated in 2v2 and also 3v3 competitions before. I have also officiated the 1st World Cyber Games Competition (Singapore) in 2001.
Question Mech. is so prevent with terran but even i seem to be doing fine with a mech strat i would like to be faster. I have played many people and when i do i always go mech with terran i get 8 scvs then the supply then keeeeeep building scvs then go for barracks and refinery at the same time then go immediatly afterwards and build a factory then pump out vultures. From here i need some help about what to get vs. toss zerg and terran ive been getting about a hotkey of vultures and 2 for tanks and around 2 for goliaths and THOUGHTS?
Answer It really depends what your enemy throws at you. Scout him often. Starcraft is about knowing what your enemy is doing.
Terran vs Terran is about tank wars. Get tanks, and goliaths to support them against wraiths or air units if enemy has them. Get air units (or even flying engineering bay) to scout for tank. Mass tanks....
Terran vs Zerg
Pure Mech is not advisable against zerg. Gets owned REAL fast. I usually go for infantry, with comsat support. Get tanks and slowly push the tanks in with M&M (marine and medic) support. If seeing too many zerglings, get a firebat or 2. stimpack own zerg. Tanks own lurkers, or whatever other crap. GEt comsat, and if enemy uses tons of lurkers, get Science vessel ASAP....
Terran Vs Toss
Pure Mech. Vultures are good if you try to mine and rush the enemy. Not always necessary, but good for harressing. Without lag, you can do hit and run on zealots well, and take them all out without losing a single vulture. Mines do well against Dark Templars also, till you get detection. However, if enemy goes dragoons (most often they do), tanks will do better. Support with goliaths in late game, for anti air, and tank support even against land units. Pure Mech wil own. Get SVs for detection.
