In the current state of StarCraft, it has become hard to learn in a friendly and fun way because many tutorial makers, pros, and casters have turned their backs on the game. Many players that take the game semi-seriously end up hitting a frustrating skill plateau and feel like they have no other skill-improving options. The only real option is to analyze pro replays, but even that has its drawbacks.
For the players who feel like I felt after I started playing, this is for you :)
Tips:
- Rally SCV that builds the barracks to the natural
- Rally 21st SCV to build supply depot, then send it directly to second gas (after it is built, and after there are 2 on it). If timed out correctly, you will have exactly enough gas and more than enough minerals to execute the build perfectly.
- When saving up for the cyclone after the hellion, cut marines NOT SCVs.
- Be active with the reaper and hellion for map control
- 4:40 is a BIG time for you in this build; its time to make a tech lab with your barracks, build 2x barracks with one in the place of the old one by the reactor, get an engineering bay, get a second gas, and a reactor on starport.
- the 2x barracks at 5:30 is situational. If you think you can be greedy, you can expand. e.g. vs an economic raven opener, you can be greedy and expo early.
