Best Terran Strategies SC2

Have you ever played Starcraft 2 before? If not, and if you're fond of humans within sci-fi games, the Terrans are the race for you. In theory, Terrans aren't actually human, but they're pretty darned close, and and everything about their culture is recognizable even if you have never played SC2 before.

As it turns out, the best terran strategies sc2 throws at you involve building a lot of buildings, getting a good infantry built up, and spending less on your resources than other races do. For this reason, terran strategies usually involve putting up walls with supply depots and adding in Siege Tanks to protect your defensive units. Ultimately terrans are a heavily defensive race in general.

Another great perk of terrans is that their buildings can fly. Mobile buildings are great because they give you the option of moving your buildings around between the base and other locations when you need to save yourself from an attack. So for this reason, constructing command centers in expansions of the frontier when you aren't sure how safe that location is is made possibly by flying terran building technology.

Of course, there are a few downsides to Terran playing; mainly, you can't just mash buttons to get your units moving like the zerg and protoss can. You have to use tech labs and reactors, which prevents you from using the same button. You have to cycle manually through each building and then build accordingly. The best terran strategies sc2 offers are a little more complex than other races.

However if you get this process down, you will be able to come up with a long term strategy to create new forces without ever having to zoom in on each building. Basically you can work it down to a macro cycle. The thing is, this takes some getting used to, but can be a major benefit to the best starcraft 2 strategies for terran.

The main thing to remember when you attack as Terrans is that you have a lot of different possibilities at hand. The common strategies for low level players are rushes with banshees and/or reapers. Make sure you expand quickly with your flying building strategy or you will end up suffering as you failed to expand quickly enough.

Terrans are a great race for many reasons. They're fun and adaptable and good for the starting player or the experienced SC2 veteran alike. I highly recommend checking out the best starcraft 2 strategies for terran if you are just getting started with this race.
