Hello everyone! Starcraft 2 Thursday!

I am getting closer to 50 followers and I am excited about it. I will be sure to make a special milestone post about it. Today I have been thinking about adding more of a gaming aspect to my blog. I am going to try this out, the plan is that every Tuesday and Thursday I will be posting something about gaming, more than likely Starcraft 2.

I have been playing as Zerg a lot as of late but last night I broke down and went down to my Terran roots. I was messing around and I found a nice timing push inspired by EGLZGamer.

The opening is pretty basic

10/11 Supply - Supply Depot
11/19 Supply - Barracks
12/19 Supply - Refinery (3 On Soon As It Is Complete)
15/19 Supply - Orbital Command
15/19 Supply - Reactor Core On Barracks
18/19 Supply - Supply Depot
19/19 Supply - Refinery
19/27 Supply - Factory

25/27 Supply - If you have enough for build a Command Center build one in your base and upgrade it to orbital command.

I wish I had kept track of supply but I will be sure to update.

From here you want to always have SCVs and 2 marines in production. With the first factory build a Hellion then add a tech lab. Do some additional scouting with the Hellion. Add another Factory when you can and attach a reactor core to it. From here you are going to want to have a SCV constantly making supply depots. Research blue flame and pump out tanks and hellions and marines. Around the 8:30 / 9:00 mark you should have a good sized army and 2 tanks. Use your Hellions as your meat shield for marines and tanks. Based on this first push you would want to add another barracks with a techlab and research stim and combat shied. Now this is not a ALL in build. If you noticed you are losing the first push back off and save what you can. Go a head and expand. From here you need to just keep scouting and build your army composition to what you need.

Let me know what you guys think and GOOD LUCK!
