Description

This build order is pretty easy to execute. The most important part is not dying to allins or widowmine drops.

Going for a timing with 6 carriers with storm is very effective against bio mine and mass vikings. I don't recommend going for a timing vs mech since bcs crush carriers and at that point you need to go full macro and make mass tempests. Don't follow the times and the supplies of the build order exaclty it always wary from game to game. just make sure to get your stargate and the oracle before mothership core while chronoboosting adepts.

Analysis

The 1st important thing about this build is not losing your oracle and scouting with it. In this particular game i scout a widowmine drop so i dropped a forge and some cannon delaying my carriers, if you feel safe skip them.When terran is going for big marine pressure make sure to chrono out your adepts and get a pylon at your ramp. Make sure to place your pylons well so the can cover you from liberators.

Getting a 3rd is hard sometime but with this build you can stay on 2 bases very long if terran is hyper aggressive on 2 bases. Getting attack upgrades on your air and glaves is very important. Usually make your gateways before establishing the 3rd base. While defending any kind of strong marine medivac aggression make sure to pull back the hurt carriers back and abuse the interceptor mechanic(sometimes its better to sack your 3rd and save the carriers staying long on 2bases is not a big deal since your army will get very strong with storm.

Once your 3rd base is secure and you have 6-8 carriers with hts attack the terran for the victory! Make sure to storm the vikings don't lose all your interceptors to the mines but feel free to detonate some of them over terran marines if you are running out of interceptors pull back and remake them. Remember to leave some HTs in your base and make carriers behind from 2 star gates. Don't add more until you have your 4th base assuming you haven't win yet ;). Good luck!
