Analysis

Goal @ 7:15 - 64 Probes, 3 Colossi, 18 Stalkers, 5 Zealots, 1 Sentry, 3 Obs; Prism building (135/157 supply)

Adjustments based on opponent:

  • Gateway 2 and 3 wall if gas first, can build on high ground if rax first

  • First obs scouts at about 4:05. If you spot some sort of tank move-out/all-in, do not make robo bay. Instead start immortals and warp in units. Otherwise (e.g. 3 rax, mine drop, etc.) make robo bay. Note mine drop can hit around 4:40 if rax first, 4:20 if gas first

  • Upgrades: Tanks --> Armor, Charge. Mines --> Attack, Blink.

  • If Raven, get Templar Archives immediately after starting second Colossus and keep a Templar available for feedback.
