Notes:

Once hellions are on the way reaper goes to hide near their base: send it in to scout + hit their main mineral line if they attack your front at all (big damage if they tunnel vision)
- Bonus points for picking off scvs on buildings (CC, starport etc)
Early MULES all dropped in main base until 4+ hellions are out - if they go 2-reaper hellion they have a small window to hit your natural mineral ine
Hellions rally on top of your ramp and group up here
Try to hide your count and jump on them if they overcommit
Hit their natural with 6-8 hellions
Learn when to commit and do damage, when to pull back. Defending counter-attacks is hard if you sacrifice all of them for little damage
This build is essentially a 3CC double raven + viking + tank, tech-unit focused build. You want to turtle up initially and only explode into a dynamic game after 3-bases+
Your attack timings are:
- Early reaper backstab
- 6-8 hellion dive on natural
- 2-ravens, 2-4 vikings and 2-3 siege tank “air superiority” push (enemy does this to me and I defend poorly in this replay/video of me doing the build
- 3-base onwards standard marine-tank pushes (or mech if you choose to do that off this opening)
