@Jared Krensel I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your incredible content. As I go along this series, I'm reminded time and time again how critically important and valuable a solid coach/teacher is. How on earth could I have learned to practice Terran without this series? Slowly... I guess. PAINFULLY slowly. There's a 100% chance I wouldn't be able to scale my knowledge this quickly without you. I know this is just a video game but the lessons about discipline, timing, strategy, tactics all while keeping a keen and religious eye on the fundamentals will strike true everywhere in life. Kudos my man, this content is absolute fire. 10/10 - you deserve 1M+ subs, without question. Bravo.
Really enjoying these. I've been messing around off-racing with Terran using your advice from this series and it's been a super fun mix-up. Excited to practice all these builds.
I have not played since Wings of Liberty about 13 years ago. Was getting pretty good at Terran before I quit gaming for a long time. Everything changed so I'm glad I came across this on my first search because the detailed explanations during the matches are on point. Good job! Thank you sharing all this and even the attached build steps list. 😂 This video is a one stop shop to get jump started or get serious with Terran!
actually I'm in the same situation ^^ I don't know why I quit playing but I started watching sc2 matches a few years later and had no idea what all those units were like liberators and those mines and stuff. 'That ain't my Starcraft anymore, back in my days we didn't need fancy stuff like that. It's was bio and tanks and 45 minutes of turtle'. Now I come back 10 years later and the game changed very drastically. And I'm going to get into it again.
I've played around 100 games with the BO from episode 1 and 2 and it brought me to 2500mmr. I lost and won an equal amount of games, but I feel it's really important that you do quite a lot of games with the same BO just to get the hang of the macro - especially after 10 minutes on 3 or more bases - it get's kinda crazy and I feel overwhelmed a lot of times, but practice does make it less "hectic" in a sense. I still have plenty of buildings that I forgot to hotkey and therefore never use, or have bases with way to many or way to little amount of workers on them, but I honestly think those issues going to resolve themselfs once you get more and more comfortable with what you are doing. I basically feel like time slows down in a sense if you do something over and over again. 10 minute matches felt super fast at the beginning for me, now not so much anymore. I'm now gonna try to move on to those new 3 BO and go from there. It's so much fun playing this game again. Loosing, is fun, too.
I like your video soooo much, TVP are always the stressful match I play with, but you describe it so detail and play with relax. you really give me a new perspective for TVP style.
That first game was so satisfying. Im just barely starting to get my TvZ down where I can calmly push and somewhat do some spreadies when I need to, but I"m obsessed with this siege/slow push style. Games where I manage to pull it off make me feel so in control.
Pig thanks for all these B2GM's. I enjoy playing all 3 races and watched all your series last year! I would love to send you a few replays of me smashing some people with all these builds you taught. Ones that work best for me TvP-3hellion 6marine drop. TvZ-4hellion 1 lib opener into mech. PvT-fast disruptor prism with observers.
Hello, i have almost seen every video from your tutorials on terran and i managed to start playing starcraft 2! Without any experience i managed to defeat gold players by your tactics in a week. Will you be doing protoss tutorials? Thank you so much for help
i love how Terran macro works. Just infrastructure laid out, workers building/laying various buildings, production buildings pumping out units in streams. I'm a Zerg main but i've been playing just Terran for the last few months and its been hard to learn but an awesome time.
3:57 man that was some quick reaction to grab the scvs and mineral click them to the natural, if that was even what my eyes managed to make out :D Edit: lol should have watched 3 more seconds before pressing space to write this comment haha :p then I would have heard him confirm it!
Beautiful!!! Much better than vibes B2GM Plat and this diamond lvl tips are extremely helpful I've been besting masters with these tips in 2v2 and 1v1 custom it all makes sense now Pig 🐖is top dawg with the coaching
It's always really hard for me to say someone is definitively smurfing unless they're just really strong in most facets of the game because lower level players have wildly different strengths and weaknesses.
yeah general rule if you feel "damn this opponent is good at X" is assume they're messing up elsewhere and if you push on through and fight hard you still have a good shot!
im maxing by 12-13 minutes with 3-3 finishing and still cant seem to figure out how im losing so badly to zergs. Can't WAIT for your new upcoming Terran bronze to gm on your stream! (no that this one is bad ofc, but im always down for new terran b2gm content!)
I'd definitely advise hitting timing attacks rather than just maxxing out and taking too long to fight. Clearing creep and keeping the Zerg from having too much time macroing up can massively up your winrates in that matchup. Terran B2GM should be starting in about 1.5 months so see you there!
Need help. What can i do in tvt when opponent turtle up and mass bc? I go your build tvt I massed vikings. That worked ab bit. Then he swiched in mass banshee with speed. Vikings cant reach them... Bio cant kill is Basis with pf and tanks. I walk out. Bc or banshee go in my Basis.turrets they ignore
Why do Jared's games in Diamond 3 look easier than my plat 3 games? Where is my guy doing 12 hatch into double overlord followed by no queens, 13 minute slow banes! 🤣.
The real tragedy here is that you may not realize that your opponent named himself after Trogdor the Burninator of Strong Bad Email #58. th-cam.com/video/90X5NJleYJQ/w-d-xo.html
Question: Can't you just drop a Ghost Academy when you scout lurkers instead of more factories for tanks? Or is this considered too advanced ? (Also, Thank you for the guides man!)
Nothing's too advanced! You can always get good at any style you're motivated to improve at. It definitely does require more practice than siege tanks, but the ghosts also can EMP the energy off spellcasters so it is a fantasticly well rounded lategame counter. If you're motivated go straight to start learning ghosts. My general advice is tanks are easier so just rely on them until masters+ but of course each player can make their own decisions on this
If anyone, like me, used this b2gm guide (which was pretty awesome), can’t figure out how this guy breezed through diamond, while you use his strats, and struggle, send me your replays and I’ll help you out, I can translate from this ridiculous apm gm player to the plebeians in the metal leagues, I figured it out.
Have a question. Midgame, sometimes minerals pull way ahead even with really good production. Was wondering, is it viable to build 2 orbitals for supply instead of supply depots? I figure the mules can help pay for themselves, and later they can fly in as full bases. Is the reason this isn't done just due to the time delay of needing supply?
lost two games vs zerg tonight. killed some drones with hellion drop and pushed with marine tank but my macro sucked. watching the build order again and making sure i follow the fundamentals again, because i feel like i've devolved into just doing random shit again and its hurting me
Gotta say, Trogdor was really good for a first fight. That guy was impressive but he may have needed to transition earlier to win air superiority... but fuck my opinion cause I ain't as good (though having BLs just harrass split Terran units and push them into lurker camps would be tasty). Regardless, other than that he creep spreaded and macroed like a champ
bad luck mate! Make sure you watch your replays and just focus on what you can do better in your build and macro cycles and you can still progress even whilst losing. Once stim and shields is done with some medivacs you can usually stim out and surprise the stalkers and kill a bunch of them if they don't react super fast
so its not normal to see two gates at the start of a tvp with their cyber core on the way ? lol that would be why ive been taking damage from toss when i scout that :P thought that was a normal P opener >:P
also, do you have a series where you explain how to react to common cheeses when you scout them from each race? like double or tripple proxy-rax, blink stalker all-ins, nydus swarm host rushes etc?
Around the 15 or 16 minute mark is when your main completely mined out. I think it's more worthwhile to build a new CC for the added protection of being able to morph it into a Planetary. However, if you're in a money starve situation, you can do it to save money. The Orbital in the main is still contributing with scans and MULES drops, so it's not like it's a useless building.
Its a good tutorial until he INSTANTLY REACTS to harassments. Like nah mate, I can't do that. lol good watch though. Pretty much confirmed I will never leave Silver/Gold tho.

Thanks for saying this man. I feel the same way. Top tier content that somehow feels like advice for life as well as for a game.
Woah dozing his name pretty hard there!!
Really enjoying these. I've been messing around off-racing with Terran using your advice from this series and it's been a super fun mix-up. Excited to practice all these builds.
Off racing...Just start playing Random on the ladder. You'll get used to all 3 races quick enough =)
@@Gossettc68 but my protoss is illegitimate
Your B2GM series is awesome! The focus on learning the fundamentals is already starting to pay off for me :)
@2:36:48: this is a map where reaper harass is really powerful

00:27:46 😮No way this is Gary! Gary supposed to be life-long depo builder!
2:51:17 PiG is trying so hard not to laugh at the poor Zerg player.
1:24:50 lmao! When you were microing the tank marine army by his third base you qued the rax to land there with a reactor >.
LOL
PiG: "just to see..."
SCV: "What's goin' on?"
PiG: "...what's going on."
Game 2 is so helpful for holding these 1 base roach pressures. Find myself running into those often in lowly plat now
love this series
Best B2GM series out there. Without doubt. Thanks for that PiG
I tried the build from Game 7, it works super well, again great content.

Possibly!

I go your build tvt

Weeoooo thanks bro!!
good job pig! thx for the tips n tricks very helpful !!!
Great content! I had a question. In TVP, is it worth prioritize on destroying pylons (such as Artosis pylon) and shut down there building?
people still watching and appreciating!
you made it look so easy but i'm sweating just trying to do half of what youre doing haha
takes practice! good on you for giving it a go
"What is stopping you from doing that is not mechanical skill, its your inability to make a decisions" :)
Gosh I'm just at the first game of this video and I'm kind of intimidated by how the level of play got up quite a lot in one swoop 😅

15 supply, makes a good wall, mules pay for themselves. maru does it. that's good enough for me

"Terran of course have an I.W.I.N. button but they're a little difficult to control so we'll find perfectly viable ways to win without them"
lost two games vs zerg tonight. killed some drones with hellion drop and pushed with marine tank but my macro sucked. watching the build order again and making sure i follow the fundamentals again, because i feel like i've devolved into just doing random shit again and its hurting me
That's a constant battle - keeping those systems in place so we don't become too chaotic. gl mate!
Gotta say, Trogdor was really good for a first fight. That guy was impressive but he may have needed to transition earlier to win air superiority... but fuck my opinion cause I ain't as good (though having BLs just harrass split Terran units and push them into lurker camps would be tasty).
Regardless, other than that he creep spreaded and macroed like a champ
Can I make it to diamond doing the 3 rax build you did in your previous videos?
Hey PiG love the content, awesome to learn new things everyday! How come you prefer widow mines over tanks vs zerg? Thanks!
I’ve lost to every Protoss I played tonight in plat 1 😂 I believe 4 losses in a row. Keep dying to being contained by blink stalkers early in the game
bad luck mate! Make sure you watch your replays and just focus on what you can do better in your build and macro cycles and you can still progress even whilst losing.
Once stim and shields is done with some medivacs you can usually stim out and surprise the stalkers and kill a bunch of them if they don't react super fast
Pig why when you select the army you can see the movments camands and when i select the army i just see the steampack comand?
Go to options and deselect the simple command box
Oof this is so much harder, im closing to diamond 3 with the silver league build now feeling a bit lazy about switching so much stuff :d
so its not normal to see two gates at the start of a tvp with their cyber core on the way ? lol that would be why ive been taking damage from toss when i scout that :P thought that was a normal P opener >:P
also, do you have a series where you explain how to react to common cheeses when you scout them from each race? like double or tripple proxy-rax, blink stalker all-ins, nydus swarm host rushes etc?
Question:
Do you float out the command center on your main if you mine it out?
If no, why keep it in the main?
Around the 15 or 16 minute mark is when your main completely mined out. I think it's more worthwhile to build a new CC for the added protection of being able to morph it into a Planetary. However, if you're in a money starve situation, you can do it to save money.
The Orbital in the main is still contributing with scans and MULES drops, so it's not like it's a useless building.
I miss FilterSC
apparently everyone is watching these and getting better thats the reason I still cannot win.
Its seems easy on the NA server, diamond on NA is mid master on EU
cool bra
Its a good tutorial until he INSTANTLY REACTS to harassments. Like nah mate, I can't do that. lol good watch though. Pretty much confirmed I will never leave Silver/Gold tho.
Your face is literally screaming "punch me" but your guides are usefull
yo the rimworld music! respect haha i had to check i hadnt opened the game accidentally lol
