Analysis
-The goal is to get five Reapers and three Hellions to make a push at your opponents base.
-Before the push, keep your units on your ramp so you can quickly access your main base if your opponent comes in with Reapers.
-The good thing about this push is it happens a little late. So most of the poke has already been done by your opponent. This way you're not leaving your base unattended for an attack.
-Back up if your opponent has a Siege Tank.
-After your initial push has taken place, you transition into a normal TvT setup: Two Raven's, Tanks, Marines, Vikings. But you can transition into Mech if it suits your playstyle.
-If you move into getting Vikings, get your third Command Center down first. Vikings are really expensive.
-A good move-out timing is 6:20 with two Raven's and two Tanks.
