Terran relies primarily on its ability to put up rock-solid defenses. They're very immobile, but once set up (seiged tanks, mines, turrents, a few goliaths), almost impossible to penetrate.

The key to breaking a decent-level Terran player is to search for holes in his wall of defense while massively out-expanding him. Your macro must be really up to snuff (unless you get away with great harassment early game). When you clash with a Terran army of the same size, he'll win a lot of the time--you need to be able to resupply asap.

Late game, recalls are the scariest thing for a Terran. They'll have vessels to EMP and turrets all over the place--but if you can sneak in a recall to one location, followed by a 2nd recall at another base, you'll do massive damage. Very difficult to recover from often.

Utilize stasis well--try to stasis the tanks in the back, along with vessels if possible. Use storms on clumps of tanks--2-3 storms should kill a nice big clump of tanks and really help your cause. Get a good mixture of zealots and goons in there. Zealots draw tank fire (a good Terran will manually target the dragoons when in battle) which usually confers splash damage to his own units.

Other than that, I'd say just practice. Really work on doing more things in the same amount of time. Call it APM if you want, but really, don't relax the whole game--constantly be moving around, doing as much as possible. Get that expo up, put your pylons up, make gateways, check your tech researches, harass, etc.

#3 thanks for the tips ill try ,but i still don't know how to deal vs a vast terran army at other situations such as we're meeting each other on the battlefiend in suprise :/ observers are fine but sometimes i just meet the terran suddenly and he crashes me :/.

And my APM is high- someone i have 300+ - 400+ , but...70% is spam XD

then don't fight him if you meet him unprepared and you think you will loss, run away, since he will most likely siege, then kill some vults with your goons and make him siege so that he cannot follow you fast enough. Use that time to make units yourself.

PvT is actually a really easy MU since Protoss Macro is easy as hell compared to the other races Oo

#7, not with the way quicker building vultures, you have to make 2vults/fax each time to keep it the same as tanks, and as most of the Protoss units (unlike quicker building zealots).

Yet, Protoss has it harder on higher levels, since mistakes are more cruical.
Terran? wall, 10scv's and a tank hold the counterpush of the surviving opponent if you forgot to macro, Zerg just uses its 20larvas and Protoss is kinda fucked.

Have to say that i agree with NexCa that zerg is the hardest race to macro perfect due many things. Though everything is relavant, for a newbie, toss is by far the easist race to macro, but when u have played every race a long time i guess every race is as hard as the other.
