ANALYSIS

The goal with the 2 reapers and 2-3 hellions you make is to kill as many marines as you can and pressure your opponents ramp, utilising the new reaper bomb is key to gaining to positional advantage and knocking your opponent's marines around is key.



This early pressure can transition well into either bio or mech. As it stands, mech is very good on the smaller maps, but on the bigger maps like lerilak bio is significantly favored.

I recomend analysing the replays in the "similar builds" tab for more reference for this build. Good luck on ladder!
