Analysis
Your first scout is the SCV that built your first Barracks.
Then scout with your Reaper.
Follow up by adding 4 Hellions to your scout party, try to deny creep and potentially undermine their economy by finding a breach in their defenses.
Build 6 Medivacs to support your armies.
At the 7:00 minute mark you should have two separate groups on the other side of the map clearing up creep. Backed up by 4 Medivacs.
Then join forces and attack the most vulnerable base your opponent has, it should be the one closer to the middle of the map. Your army should consist of Marines, Widow Mines, and 4 Medivacs.
Don't forget to leave 2 Medivacs at home with a few troops to defend against counterattacks, such as Zergling Run-Bys.
