Was Terran in Brood War, played predominantly as Protoss in Starcraft II. Mainly did Void Ray cheese in the lower leagues and amazingly it was successful just about every time. I also had a lot of fun with some of the custom games, although it's tough to beat the original SC's games.

Terran in Brood War was all about land units. I think they called it the Terran push but I don't remember. It consisted of Siege Tanks, Ranged Upgraded Goliaths, Vultures (with mines) and Turrets. You basically slowly build your way to the opponent's base laying mines, sieging tanks, advancing the Goliaths, building turrets.

Edit: That's for Terran vs Protoss (which is what I played all the time against my brother)

In SC2 mech isn't viable against Protoss in competitive play. You have to make marines and/or maurauders. So it's not a positional game. I consider TvP to be a weakly designed matchup, it's just not exciting to watch Colossus vs MM ball.

TvT: marine-tank-medivac or tank-hellion-thor (rarely)
TvZ: marine or hellion into marine-tank-medivac vs mutalisk-zergling-baneling or ling-infestor into brood lords
TvP: marine-maurader-medivac (+ghost/viking) vs zealot-stalker-colossus or zealot-storm
ZvZ: ling-baneling into roach into roach-infestor or mutalisk (games end fast, no real lategame)
PvP: blink-observer or immortal or (rarely) phoenix  (games end fast, rare lategame) into mass colossus (rarely)
PvZ: stalker-sentry-immortal into colossus vs mass roach into muta into brood lord
