Armory expand into quick DC, queued up right after starting starport (around 3:15). WM drop hits around 5:00 with DC lining up decently (earlier drop than version with thor push follow-up)
Alternative to thor play if protoss goes for either robo or twilight (replace tanks by thors if air play from the toss). Tanks fare better against them, esp. if EMPed.
Early bunker for defense. Scout with marine for proxy play. Quick enough siege tank (starts at 4:15 right after loading medivac).
We incorporated a decently fast ebay in case of DTs.
Could incorporate some more scouting, perhaps multi prong with marine just to distract protoss during the drop.
THE PUSH ITSELF
Highly sophisticated 7:00 +1 attack push with a ghost, some hellbats (could be replaced by pure widow mines though), mines, marines if you re down for it, SCVs to build stuff ... sky is the limit in micro potential, but the most basic commands to queue are ...
1. Morph hellbats
2. EMP his ass
3. Siege the tanks
4. Burrow the mines
HOW THE BUILD ACCOUNTS/ADAPTS TO VARIOUS PROTOSS BO
VS cannon rush: it's a gas first, so the quick access to factory should allow you to get fastest possible cyclone which is hard counter to it.
VS DTs: 4:15 ebay will allow to put down the turrets as soon as the shades are spotted if they come.
VS oracle opener: second widow mine should be burrowed in main by 3:45, so you should be protected against it.
VS proxy gate: bunker accounts totally for it (finishes before 2:30).
VS proxy robo: big weakness here. Scout for it with first marine. Cancel armory, get tech lab for tank, add bunker, get starport for viking ASAP.
VS proxy stargate tempest: other weakness. Scout for it with marine. Finish armory and start thors ASAP.
VS blink stalker heavy opener: Tanks are safe behind bunker. Repair bunker quickly when attacked. The tricky part is when moving out: it all comes down to managing to get an EMP down on the mass of stalkers so he can't just keep doing hit-and-run while chipping away your army without losing any stalker in the process. Also he gets the option to try to basetrade with a headstart. Prepare to pull SCVs to repair that bunker and hold it!
