Description

Hello, I am Fullmetal: a Grandmaster Terran and Starcraft 2 coach. This guide will teach you Hellion, Liberator: A new build that is extremely reliable in the TvZ meta-game. This build is all about harassing your opponent and doing as much damage as possible whilst also expanding quickly.

Analysis

This success of this build is heavily based off of how you micro your units. You want to use the 6 hellions to do an occasional runby to the third while you use the liberators to siege a mineral line.

Each map has it's own sweets-spots to place liberators. For example, on Orbital Shipyard, you can place 2 liberators behind the airspace of the natural and set the liberator field in a methodical way that makes it so that queens cannot hit the liberators without being in the liberator range.

It's difficult to explain how the micro of this build works, so I suggest you study the replays I have provided below.

Best of luck! and may all of the Zergs be eradicated!!!
