As mentioned, im a master level terran that has no problem with what one would call the "standard" protoss play : 3 gate expand , 1 gate expand, 1 gate 1 robo expand , with the final unit composition being the "standard" death ball : gateway units with colossus.
However recently, i believe i got 0-3ed by aLTtagan who 6 gated me every game.
For each of these games i went my standard opener because i felt comfortable with it and i havent lost to a 4 gate or 1stargate+2 gate opening or immortal push [the last 2 hit at 7 minutes+++]
My opener : Get 2 marines, Fast CC [around 3:15 - 3:30] in base,
Get 2 more Raxes up and bunker at the front so a stalker poke doesnt do as much damage.
Around 5:00 my Second CC is up and running so i send a marine down to scout and i see tagan with a 1 gate expand (i believe)
So i macro up, get upgrades get 2 eng bays 3 bunkers at the front,
Than around 9:30 the push hits,
Having never seen a six gate push (as terran) i was amazed that he had more units than me with my unspent resources being constantly below 200 at the end of the game and his around 700.
Needless to say i got completely crushed by the FF's and zealots even though i stim kited a few forcefields outside my base and my bunkers were completely useless seeing as a few well placed FF will negate repair.
So anyone that knows how to deal with this as terran can give a few solutions?
[his six gate is definitely a response to my FE because if i try cloaked banshee he'll just get a few obs and go 5gate 1 robo and do the same strat anyway]
