You gotta stop building marauders in TvT. Unless you play someone who refused to build bio for some crazy reason they are just worse marines.

Have you watch any bronzer to gm Guide on youtube

GG well played . . . Atleast everything after that 1st push. He went 2Rax 1st before CC2, after U losing those workers Ur basically even (Pumping 2 workers at a time against only one makes all the difference). The issue was U didn't finish your Buildings. That was already 1000+ minerals before you started barracks 4th & 5th. Basically U delayed your Production giving him the upper hand. Tip: "Stabilization" Against Aggressive Players what U do is STABILIZATION similar to OPTIMIZATION, but rather than sorting the build properly, it's more like getting that Production & Economy ready for the Next Stage No matter what the arrangement of the Build. Stage1: 2-Base Saturation • Required Bldg Production: = 3Rax or 1-1-1 or 2-1-1 • Worker Count : = approximately 44 Stage2: 3-Base Saturation • Required Bldg Production: = 5-1-1(Bio) or 1-5-1(Mech) • Worker Count : = approximately 60 Stage3: 5-Base Expanded • Required Bldg Production: = Bio: 8-1-1 or 8-2-1 or 8-1-2 = Mech: 1-6-1 or 1-7-1 • Worker Count : = 66+ (some goes 80+)

For your defense after the failed push. Either stim and dive on the sieging tank, or pull the SUVs and then stim in with the bio. All easier said than done in the pressurized real time of this.

When you get supply blocked, think depots first, then thing Upgrades (like stim or an ebay), or production. You got the starport going, but missed stim.

Super well played mate. As a Zerg main myself can confirm that his defence of that drop was less then perfect to say the least 😅. You mentioned in your replay analysis that getting between the bases is a good option and that’s exactly what I would have suggested when you did shove in. Only piece of advice I’ll offer is trying to incorporate a macro cycle into your games. Trying to look back at your base every 30ish seconds to build depots, scvs, start upgrades, build add ons etc. incorporating this was a huge game changer for me and helped me feel more in control of my mid to late game, as I was doing all of my macro at once rather then trying to flit back and forth constantly. I’m super impressed at your willingness to look back at your base while the fighting is happening

GG Well Played . . . that Drop-Defence was a Huge Blunder from him LoL. @4:18 "Still hasnt got my build sorted...", I believe what your looking for is Optimization. U seldom notice it if opponent is being aggressive but when his being too Economic like this one, U can tell that there are some stuff that gets delayed. As long as U don't skip or delay that SCV producton (even by a bit), we can slowly figure out where that delay is. Tip: "Engibay Optimization" Upgrades has No purpose in the openner, its Not even needed during the 1st drop harass. Its only essential during that 1st-Push. So having Engibay early delays everything else, it could have been a depot to lessen the chances of SUPPLYBLOCK or that delayed Tank in the production. STANDARD TIMING FOR ENGIBAY IS AFTER 3-1-1. However, Engibay is required for MissileTorrets. So thats the ONE AND ONLY TIME you may need to get the Engibay Early, after you scouted that opponent is doing something that may require MissileTorrets of course. Such openners are Muta, Stargate & Cloak Units (Banshee/DT). Also if you think opponent is doing Proxy stuff U can blindly start an engibay & MissileTorrets.

It would of probably been better to run some or all of your SCV's away when the dark templar first showed up, and saved the scan until your army was actually in position to take advantage of it. Thanks for the video in any case!

Clean win, and absolutely deserved. He should've gotten his 3rd a lot earlier.

Look up the 2 1 1 it a esay build to try

Not a bad game indeed:). Sure at 8:43 you got lucky with him stuck, but if you havent taken the initative to drop, you wouldnt have created this opportunity for him to mess up...

Great game! Good saving the drop and then winning on both fronts!

Once the first legionary reaches the wall , all the backers can be order to be placed on the wall ensuring a continuous stream of support for the brave first

That Protoss is not a good player, anyone can cheese your way with Protoss to get to platinum or diamond

Yeah i do something similar , if somebody trash talks me, and wins, he can expact hunting pylons in corners of the map for the next few minutes. Well sometimes, when somebody really acts like a d*ck, most of the time i cant be bothered. To me that guy looked like a higher level smurf, who used all the low level Protoss cheese tropes, just for trolling. So basicly a standard Sc2 a-hole, who thinks he is so cool. I think i already said that in the past, f*ck those guys.

GG. Becoming quite the TvZ expert. Great video. Keep it going.

GG Ollie even though the opponent has suppressed emotional issues. As a Protoss player myself I can tell you that rushing 4 stalkers vs Terran is hard to hold. I personally find bunkers is a good defense. Put it slightly back close to the expansion so the stalker doesn’t just run by. Note that four stalkers will 1 shot marines and SCV. When chrono boosted, the stalkers will get there by 3:00 sharp so be ready.

Rough game with a bad mannered toss. He's the noob sitting on 2 bases and a corner base 15 minutes into the game massing Void Rays cause he has no idea how to actually play Starcraft. He only wins with cheesy garbage. Most cheesy toss players stick to the 3 pillars of cheese: cannon rush, DTs ,and Void Rays.

GG Well Played . . . To be frank he was the Noob. Really Mass VoidRay? Mass Void is the basically the peak of Gold League. I honestly believe you shouldn't be able to get out of Gold League if that is your core Strategy (Luck was on his side). Morally speaking, He is NOT allowed to be mad at all with that strategy. Tip: "TvP Bunker-1st vs Factory-1st" Protoss is such an advanced race that Most of its Units are Mechanical(Stalkers are basically Tanks). There are 2-Options for the 1-1-1 Build: Standard Openner with "Bunker-1st" or 2-Gas Openner with "Factory-1st" "Bunker-1st" is to rush the bunker early enough for the 1st-Stalker to pop-out from a gate which is after the 1st CC starts. FOR PROXY WITH NOTHING AT HIS BASE, YOU HAVE TO RUSH BUNKER WAY MORE EARLY. "Factory-1st" is the META these days using a Double-Gas Openner and by getting that Factory before the 1st CC you should be able to defend anything with quick Cyclones & Tanks. HOWEVER if your opponent is a MACRO player Ur forced to be aggressive and do damage 1st, all because you delayed that 1st CC which gets you behind in economy.

gg, noob. ha!

Brutal... brutal game. I feel your pain Ollie. Of course this cheeser follows up with DTs and Void rays.

Six minutes in this has already been pretty crazy. Consider pulling your SUVs en mass when you see the first stalker that early. It might have been the wrong call, but the snowball effect of a proxy gate (I'm assuming at this point) this chap could have potentially finished you off if he did not pull back. The other item is I almost always build a bunker a head of my factory versus protoss becauses marines (un upgraded) are SO bad against stalkers.

Ollie! I've started watching my own replays more often because I was going to comment about your crazy supply block one game... and the amount of times I barely win or lose a game because I get supplied blocked for minutes is still very frequent.

bro, turn off the error messages, this fucking "need more minerals" is annoying as hell.

GG Well played . . . Near Perfect Timing Harass (Standard@6:00) & Timing Push (standard @12:00) Tip: "Zerg 3rd Hatch Timing" That 3rd Hatch is what you look for if Zerg is going aggressive or greedy, fortunately he didn't do it right & went greedy without trying to do damage using an aggressive openner "Tech 1st" is getting Roach/Bane/Lair first before the 3rd Hatch it's an aggressive openner that gets him ahead after getting damage. (THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN HIS STRATEGY SEEING THAT ROACH TIMING 😂 ) • Roach = RavagerBust • Bane = BaneBust • Lair = Muta/SwarmHost/Nydus "Hatch 1st" is the standard Macro Openner with having 3rd Hatch with only SpawningPool for Tech. So careful not to be too Aggressive against this that may with you getting behind in the macrogame

GG. Nice win. Good macro. A little heavy on production buildings early but much much better to go that way than to not be able to spend. You may want to learn those upgrade costs. Stim is 100/100. You kept trying to start it, but then going somewhere else, spending your money, then coming back with less than you had before... Very nice game.

Nice dominating win.

Validation

Maybe another thing I'd recommend, when you see a bunch of tanks, try and skip up to BCs, I'm a big fan of BCs in TvT... but you can't lose them and vikings are scary.

A couple tricks I use when playing more defensively. Siege a tank in your main, keep your vikings to the right of your base to fend off medivacs (vikings are a better investment than turrets). Spotters are very important, as everyone has mentioned. One Marine parked outside his natural to see move outs is very important. Although an early tank would have been much better than an early viking, if he was rushing BCs, you'd be happy for the chance a viking gives you. If you are going for a doom drop, hit the main and crush the production. Great work dropping the tanks coming in on the first attack and same for the second attack too. If I am on two bases and my opponent is on one, I always use my second orbitals first energy to scan their main base to see what attack is coming. Usually a strong push (tank and marine), a drop (only marines), banshees with cloak, or BCs... granted you might run into Thor drops which are also super annoying.

GG . . . The only thing missing here is spotters & good siege positions (which also best with spotters 😊) 1. A marine spotter could have prevented him for sieging at your second expansion. Once the marine spotter engage his 2-tank push you could have send your army (even include SCVs) to catch him while he still moving. 2. He was so Hyper Active with Drops the best way counter it is to catch his incoming drops everytime he moves in. And to figure out if his coming is to have spotters around. Imagine if there was a viking or two as his drop enters the edge of your base, it will die before it can even drop anything😂 Note: everytime he lose a drop gets him more behind making him have less stuff as you do the TIMING-PUSH Tip: "Depot-Spotters vs Depot-Walls" "Depot-Spotters" is best on TvT, walls are useless because everything shoots. Just have a mindset everytime you put another depot, instead of putting it anywhere try putting it outside your base which can give you vision in the mini-map "Depot-Walls" is best on TvZ and TvP because of very fast melee units. But even against Protoss U can put Depot-Spotters due to every unit costs so much, It's a bad idea to do busts with Protoss.

GG. You really hung in there a long time against a pretty high activity player. Couple of comments: Scouting & Reacting! This loss definitely started with a non-reaction to the scout. An early wall off and still 1 base when your reaper arrives seems very likely to be aggression. You needed to push that reaper in and scout for more info as well as get ready for an attack coming your way. TvT is all about position and it's almost always a bad trade to push into sieged tanks. You could have had a tank out and ready to defend your natural with a more focused response to the 1 base scout. If your second base is done before theirs is started, you are way ahead on economy...as long as you don't die to the push. That first drop hurt, but you survived. At that point, expect another drop. Keep a siege tank in each base. Get some turrets up at the base corners and get a sensor tower up asap. Whatever you need to do to not get caught off guard again. I prefer turrets and siege tanks, but I know some Terrans get huge value from widow mines taking out full drop ships... After base assaults, fix your eco. Your macro is almost always better than your opponent, especially when it comes to SCV production. It is really solid. However, your base saturation can get really unbalanced, especially if you get a little pressured. Once the fight is over, take a few seconds to organize yourself and make sure you get all your bases with minerals and gas mines optimized. Once they are optimal, oversaturate one mineral line only and rally to it so you know where to pull from once your next base is up and ready. You had long distance mining, gasses with 1 worker, and undersaturated bases all at the same time. 10 seconds of economy clean up will make a big income difference over the next 2 minutes. Some highlights: Your SCV production is better than most of the players in diamond. Keep at it. There is huge improvement in you producing production structures to keep spending your money. It's making a difference. When you max'd around 16:30,, you had come back and put yourself in a position to win the game. That is an impressive comeback. Keep up the good work!

to get to the next level you might need to change how you practice. I’m not sure what your goals are but I can share some things I use

To protect yourself from drops like this, I recommend having a Siege Tank right next to your Command Centers, instead of 4 at the door. It can help and delay a lot of those drops

that went well

Hello my friend, I can relate to that moment deciding to get better at StarCraft 2 and actually putting in the work, so bravo! Your consistency is insane!!! I would like to know how you edit your videos, I’m new to your channel but very impressed by the editing and would like to incorporate it into mine if possible. Thanks and keep up the great work! 🎉

GG! Another great video and I'm glad you're showing wins and loses. The start didn't go too well but by 16:37 game time you were max supply. At this point it's a macro game so instead of sending in that 4 x drop to kill a mineral line (which has less impact now), slow it down and try to take good fights. Build a 2nd factory, 2nd starport, a few turrets, sensor towers, upgrades, and scan ahead. If you have extra money you can always build more production buildings so that after a fight you can remax faster.

What a great game. That was a tough opponent.

Awesome! Keep up the great work

Very nice video. My adventure with sc2 i think is quite atypical. I am mostly a 4x/turn based strategy gamer, and was from childhood (Games like Master of Orion, Master of Orion 2,Warlords,Sword of the Stars..) . What i think made me fall in love with sc2 ladder is the fact you can play a game against a human opponent in 10-15 minutes, with all the thrill and challenge that comes with playing against a human oppoenent. With 4x games it usually take 3 weeks of evenings lol. I have played sc2 before , but mainly camapign, very casual, and started playing ladder for real like 5 years ago maybe, taking long breaks in between. As a direct impulse, i think it was watching a youtube video that got shown to me, Serral playing againt Special in some finals, and it looked so cool.

Nice video production. Thanks for sharing.

Hey Ollie, I'm only slightly better than you sitting in Diamond 3, took me a long time to work out of Platinum. Platinum is a good time, Diamond you need to deal with real rough cheeses, DT rushes and the Roach ravagers. I should send you a vod of the build I am using to crush zergs... usually.

Second I guess! Keep the vids going dude, you’ve got a lot of potential!

Eh, first I guess

you're defo. one to watch potentially. You should be stuck in Platinum for a while, but you can look for ways to make it fun..when cheese fails is always a good watch

Man! I still wish that you could go back and do the Nova Covert Ops campaign. :( You've got planty likes on your other SC2 videoes.

You go Ollie love the content keep it up great job in this one

1:42 my left ear is thanking you rn for such deep massage <:

Awesome video. To be frank, Some of us (specifically me) is on a situation that is basically AFK most of the time these days. Only reached diamond once but don't have enough time to go beyond. However I still love the game so much that I studied it all the way to it's core fundamentals (even made notes) with a hope to reach grandmaster without the need to re-learn from scratch. But I'm glad my notes helped others as well 😊
