Description

This build is an economic build looking to get 3 CCs slightly quicker than usual. Following up with 6 hellions harass and double banshee harass. This nicely leads into the marine drop to continue to harass creep and mineral lines. Maru utilised this build throughout his series against Dark in the GSL Super Tournament. I would highly recommend watching the vod I have linked, but also watch the Maru POV vod as it is very insightful about how to best use your attention when multiprong harassing and to help you develop your understanding of decision making.

Analysis

This build is an economic build that once the initial harass is over, it is about constantly pressuring your opponent with multiple drops. In the VOD linked, Maru utilises his advantage to push earlier and gain a good siege position. Throughout the series against Dark he uses this build order to enable a heavy harass/drop style of play. This is clearly a very difficult build and style of play to master, but I think watching the Maru POV vod below will help you to better understand where your focus should be during the game. I hope this helps!
