Okay. Most of the dts come up a little bit later in the game, or at least the last few I've played. I'll just get up spine crawlers and a spore crawlers faster than usual then.

I tend to stick to lower tech, such as ling bling muta and roach hydra. In some circumstances I'll get brood lords, but sometimes I just forget to get hive tech, so that's part of the problem. I'll work on remembering to get hive tech lol

What do you do to harass protoss? I have trouble doing that, which is a lot of the problem. The only thing I can really do is attack their front and try to kill off some of his units and buildings.

Rank in a division is based on points. Just win more. I'm rank 4 Plat last time I was on this morning, it's only because I've played (and won) more games than other people.

Question: Do spore crawlers actually still work as detectors while crawling around?

I moved up to diamond in all team leagues and ffs, people in master league keep owning me.
I liked when I was in the platinum league because you don't really play against Masters.

So yeah, diamond league FTL :(

I can't stand playing the same race over and over again, eventhough im much much better with terran.

Im good with zerg too, but I kinda suck when im toss.

Oh and hellions are overrated, it can easily be countered with a maurauder or two, canons or spore crawlers.

What's really OP is the god damn infestors... They need to be nerfed imo.

Yea and then 4 of them are dropped in your mineral line for the 6th time, making all previously failed attempts instantly worth it..

ghosts and hts rape infestors, if you're paying attention. You can kill a whole mineral line with a 4 flame drop before you can kill all 4 hellions with 4 marauders/cannons/spines, they outrun marauders so easily it's not even funny. Well ok, it's a little funny.

Re: [Official] SRF Starcraft II Thread

ugh, I'm getting frustrated D:
How do I beat the Farking protoss deathball?! I have my MMM's but it's never good enough, they get mowed down.
What are my priority targets?? DO I have to focus down the collosi first? or leave them for last, as they don't do much to my marauders? I've tried adding in thors to absorb damage.

Around when Should one be expanding, I ussually have my expansion around the 8-9 mark.

I know my biggest mistake is letting the protoss expand a lot, that's just stupid on my part, but how can I deal with them after they've grown powerful :[

ghosts, emp does more dmg than storm, is instant, and is much easier to chain than storm. Late game terran has the advantage, not toss.

somehow my emp's never seem to help me much, even though I get maximum amounts of targets.
A while Ago I noticed my real error though :[
I had no vikings. he had up 7 collosi at some point and I hadn't made a single viking, bet that could've saved me D:

I don't know why, but I always restrain myself from making starports. I feel like air units take up supply that I could be spending on units I can use more actively >.<. I usually just make one reactor starport for medivacs and that's it. until I decide to get bc's :/. then I put down 2~3 more.

don't get BC's against toss.

Go MMM + ghost + viking and you win 100% of the time. With snipe and EMP it's pretty much unbeatable. Of course you don't need vikings if they don't go colossi/air...

Always get ghosts though. Best unit in the game.

^ the bc's weren't toss specific. I just hate making starports in general. And somehow I always forget the ghost exist. I even lost vs vhAI toss just now, cus he got out HT and I didn't have ghosts yet D;

I Really hate protoss :banghead: aaaaugggghhhhhh

I have one starport only for medivacs. But I generally just forget to make vikings out of it. Most of the time however I try to go marine-tank with some thors and although I have loads of marines in there I just never bother making the starports for the medivacs.

I instinctively forget to make the two most important units I need to fight protoss: Medivacs en Ghosts D:
I know, fail :P
