Tip of the day: Sometimes your opponent will attack your worker like that, this is most common when against Protoss, what I'd recommend doing is pulling a worker off your mineral line as soon as they start attacking your worker and attack their worker. They might do a few different things, but the main thing is, don't lose a worker, and try to minimize the delay of your barrack. Don't forget you can have your worker stop building without canceling, and then you can have a different worker resume it.
Another tip, as soon as you see banshees and you don't have a lot of marines, get a viking, because vikings are pretty good. Cancel marines if you need more money, because he had too many banshees for you to get enough marines on 2 rax with no reactors
GG . . . "gonna get my defensive marine" - but where's your Defensive Viking, Defensive Tank and Defensive Cyclone, its basically almost required for TvT. Having 1-each should have been enough to defend any early shenanigans'. Also your opponent is using a build that will only do all shenanigans from start to finish (All Banshees and Mines LOL) 2 or 3 Cyclones followed by mass Vikings easily destroys banshee openners Tip: "Aggressive vs Defensive [1-1-1]" Aggressive [1-1-1] is the what your doing getting that 4-8 Harassing-Units to distract enemy while you macro behind it. Such Harassments like Hellions, Drops and Sky Harass keeps enemy from being TOO-GREEDY on the economy. Defensive [1-1-1] on the other hand is response against most enemy aggression (especially double gas openers). Having one for each primary units (1Cyclone,1Tank,1Viking) enables you to at least HOLD-OUT any attack before you can really get those unit-counters out. * A Tank can handle any Early Mass Bio Types (if sieged properly) and also better unsieged against any Mech Types * A Viking is best against any Air Types and especially good for hunting down MEDIVAC-drops, PRISM-drops and Banshees, BC, StargateUnits, ETC. Also you can just land them to help out on ground when there are no longer enemy skies. * A Cyclone is the best early game MARINE. It has bigger damage, faster speed (for kiting and hunting), can both shoot upwards and down, and can be repaired by any SCV. HOWEVER for Midgame & Lategame, they cost too much Micro, Money & Supply that's why their less effective. Unless your going BattleMech style that's a different story for another Tip😊
i've spotted a huge flaw in my plan, which is getting my defensive units out. that and i burned away my entire early force on dead drops with ni scouting :p
One of the faults you do, when outnumbered, is that you keep trickling in your units to engage. Don't do that. Like here, you keep sending in 2 and 2 Marines to their deaths. Wait until you have 6 or 8 instead. Patience. Let him have his little fun, keep your forces safe, and *then* strike when you actually have a chance to do damage. Also ...... Cyclone. 😊

played great
For my opponent 😂

Also ...... Cyclone. 😊
For 6 months people have been telling me to stop building cyclones. I’m so excited to build more
@@Voidspacealpha Yeah well, they are wrong in this situation. Anything that fires up is good here. ☺
Just don't trickle them into combat. 😄
Yeah my bad Jan
