I think the only time the terran will make only a single marine is if you go gas first reactor hellion, which you can't even really afford to expand very fast behind. You always get at least 2 marines, and then either make a third or wait for 50 gas to tick over.


I think iaguz makes the third marine there, and I've fallen in love with doing it as with 3 marines you can push out and easily clean up 4 lings... on big maps you will often even deny drone scouting, so just seeing 3 marines pushing out and deny lings seeing the reactor/factory can throw zergs off.


kinda off-topic with regards to ZvT, but there should always be more than one marine out there.
