for terran only

you must be fast to react in this one,not recommended for pro players.ill list an build order to help you.

Build Order
<---------------------------->
1,SCV
2,SCV
3,SCV
4,supply depot
5,refinery
6,barracks(build right after you start building the refinery)
7,factory(right after barracks if possible)
8,supply depot
9,factory
10,SCV
11,machine shop
12,seigh tank
13,engerneering bay
14,siegh tank
15,seigh mode upgrade
16,SCV
17,seigh tank
18,SCV

ok then keep building SCVs to gain in mining mineral faster.but watch out for if ur fighting zerg or protoss this aint too useful though,its good to fight TvT with this one,you can also fly your barracks right after you build it to your enemys base and fly to the top of your enemys CC and then he will haf difficulties selecting his CC to build SCVs.....block his bases entrance right after you make 3 tanks and select 2 SCVs and make 4 marines to follow the tanks
and block his entrance!

now for some extra strats.....place a mine in each of the places you think he would expand in,but you must expand fast.
try to annoy his and slow him down,you can go early to send a scout to his base and build a refinery on his geyser...lol...dont fully make that refinery bec if he attacks your refinery you can still cancel it(but cancel it when its about to die that will delay him).
you can also build wraiths fast and go to his mining area and kill the workers!run when you get attacked.if ur fighting protoss retreat if he has any cannons there.if his base is on a high cliff you can siegh mode a tank and fly a building into his base and see if your tanks arclite shock cannons can reach it....

That's a bit too early, and I think when your tanks get out you will have poor economy and cannot pump tanks non-stop. If against terran you'll also be forced into defensive position while he expands.
I usually get factory with my 15th SCV, that's the fastest, and also can be used against protoss.

When posting build orders, write the supply you have when you build the building. For example, your BO might be something like
7 supply
7 gas
7 rax.
It is assumed that you keep building SCVs.

You seem to sacrifice a lot of economy in your build order. Try:
9 supply
11 rax
12 gas
15 fact
16 supply
17 rine
18 fact
with a wall.

2 fact is useful against both terran and protoss.

No...Peaches he's not making SCV before that tank comes in first...you can see in his build.

Yes, tanks come extra fast, so does your death.

If you get so little SCVs I'd rush you with SCV.

i didnt quite understand that did you mean that you dont make any scvs after a supply until your factory is ready or just make a basic tech build with refinery before barracks so that you pump scvs all the time.Doing a gas before barracks doesnt slow you a second if you keep making scvs all the time. It will just give you some extra gas so that it is possible to make tanks a little bit longer with 1 gas. But if you try to make it with 7 scvs you will be totally screwed.
