Starcraft II is all about letting the other person make a mistake before you do.  If that mistake is not preparing for a rush, you win.  If I rush, see you've prepared for it, and then keep rushing, they win.


What league/rank are you playing on?

I just find what you said kinda... wrong (I thought that way about the game once)

I'm silver (just recently promoted from bronze and ranked 3 in silver actually ) but that came from my diamond buddy.

If you're a better player, the other person will make a mistake first.  When they make that mistake, take advantage of it.

He isn't saying hold of on attacking, he's saying pick and choose your battles and don't be greedy.


Yeah, I think I misunderstood you :P

My former style was waiting until my opponent will attack, I will win against his units (and that happened almost always) and then I move out and win.

However, when I played against pepole who fast expanded, I just lost every game, since I didn't attack.


Yes, mistakes are key. My friend and I have a 2s team, we were rank 8 dia the other day (we haven't played for a week though) and we essentially rely on mistakes. And trust me, even the best players make mistakes.

You should never 'wait' for your opponent to attack. If he's scouting you just chilling, he'll take the whole map. It's not about you letting people FE as much as it is you're letting them macro as much as they want. So while you're building a few units, they're getting 5-6 upgrades, fully teching up, and making 10 units.

You don't have to be aggressive, but you do have to put on pressure, especially if you play Terran.
