Adel's No Gas PvP SC2 Build Order


Description: This build capitalizes on the mineral advantage you will have over your opponent and allows you to safely expand against a four gate, which is an extremely popular build in PvP. You can find more information about this build and the inner workings of it at the source link below.

Strengths:
  • Sets you up for a macro game
  • Early aggression allows you to keep tabs on your opponent

Weaknesses:
  • Requires some sort of damage with your initial push
  • Wide naturals make using this build very difficult (Xel Naga Caverns)
  • Long rush distances weaken the initial push (Shakuras Plateau)
Build Order:

  • Use first three Chronoboost on probes
  • 9 Pylon
  • 13 Gateway
  • 14 Pylon
  • 16 Gateway
  • 17 Zealot
  • 20 Assimilator
  • 21 Pylon
  • 21 Zealot
  • 24 Cybernetics Core
  • 26 Zealot
  • 28 Zealot
  • Attack with four Zealots at about 4:45-4:50
  • Chronoboost on Probes
  • Pylon (about when Cybernetics finishes)
  • 2 Stalkers (Chronoboosted) -> Rally onto your Zealots or enemy base

Terran Build Order: Korean 2-Rax Marine SCV Rush



Description: The 2 Barracks Marine and SCV rush is a build that has been around for some time, but has seen an incredible amount of success in GSL 3 from a professional player named Boxer (aka Foxer). The build can be effective against all three match-ups, but is most effective against Terran, Zerg, and is incredibly aggressive. Depending on the amount of SCVs pulled off the mineral line, a player may or may not be able to transition into other builds.

SC2 Zerg Build Order: The Five Roach Rush

Description: The goal of the five roach rush zerg build order is to put pressure as early as possible on your opponent and give you an opportunity to safely expand. I should stress that this build is not meant to win you the game outright, but instead give you an opportunity to safely expand, thus gaining a decent advantage over your opponent.

If you arrive as their base and they have walled off very well, either because of supply depots or forcefields, remember not to stand their and take hits. Back off, keep your roaches at the entrance of their base, and harass intermittently while droning up.

The biggest mistake players make is committing to the attack and consequently losing the game. Don't make the same mistake.
