Hi guys, I'm a usual guy who asks lots of tips for terran because I obviously started at a very awkward spot for SC, with no past experirence of Broodwar or WC3 (only playing DotA) so to me, macro has been a tough thing to go with.
So heading on to the topic that I want to ask you successful terrans out there. What's the mindset when you approach a game. My mindset is always, cheese first 7 mins to gain some huge advantage and win. (Obviously this has only taken me to diamond as I am finding it harder and harder to cheese in higher leagues) Right now I'm always practicing my macro game. But the thing is I can't open a very solid way. So what is the mindset for a Terran against zergs, protoss's or even itself? How do you guys open up a game? And what should be the mindset of a good terran? Cause for zerg, I'm always feeling I gotta do some cheesey harass so I won't stay behind since zergs can drone up so fast. I really wanna find out a good way to play Terran the correct style!!!! :P
For me, when I play zerg and let them macro, I automatically lose. Because I find that it's so hard to secure an expansion solidly, so that's why I always open with hellions or 2rax.
Against Toss, its a 50-50... Sometimes I macro, but sometimes I have to do really early pressure against them. Because i feel like if I hit him at 200-200, there is such a big chance I'd lose compared to the toss.
Against Terran, I feel like I absolutely HAVE to harass at the beginning. But even when I get the harass done, I still fall behind quick because I don't know how to keep the pressure on the Terran.
Ofc, I'm not perfect at either cheese or macro yet, But i hope you guys can help me out
