INnoVation's Gas First Banshee Raven (TvT Timing Attack)
Description
This is an economic TvT opener that opens with a banshee to harass. Back at your base you have a raven a widow and 6 marines to defend against any counter banshees or drops.
This build is not by any means easy to execute, but it is effective! Goodluck! :)
Note: When using this build you may find it hard to play against the 2 reaper cyclone build. The solution to holding the attack is to usually understand what they open with. Putting the widow at the ramp can usually fend off the attack if you have marines focus fire.

Analysis
Tips when using the build
Don't lose Banshee for free
Don't lose Raven (Repair it if necessary)
When you start the initial push make sure your stim is finished and only fight the other dude with your tanks. The marines are only there to buffer. As long as you have air control your tanks can kill the other guy w/o losing any units. Of course, it will take time and it will be a slow push but TvT is a match-up that requires patience.
Furthermore, if anyone would like help with the build please leave a comment and ill get back to you as quickly as I can

Missing the 4th supply depot at 34 before the banshee starts. The 42 supply depot is number 5
You can see innovation throw down the 4th depot by the 3rd next to his mineral line when Jjakji's reaper gets into innovation's base. Innovation actually uses the depot to block the reaper's path and force the reaper to go up by the refinery. The detour let's innovation's marines catch the reaper before it gets away

Shouldn't this build be labeled as "Timing Attack" rather than economic? This builds opens with a 1-1-1, and the nat and 3rd CC are both significantly late. Additionally, this build requires the 1-1-1 to deal damage.
