Do you mean what units should you go?? Well, if you mean that there are lots to make.. Goons are good but suck againts tanks. Goons i also think beat the noob mass bcs. You could also go mass archons which can beat basically all zerg.10 Archons could probably beat 40 or so multas. Also mass Carriers is very very very good. People may say that mass carriers is noob but they should know better.First, noobs CANT GO MASS CARRIERS. Know why? ITs cuz noobs make like 1-2 assimaltors and maybe 10 workers. And if you want to be able to get 24 carriers and 8 inter. for each that will cost about 12,000 or more minerals plus v. gas. Now a noob cant even mine 12k with 10 workers..lol it would take hours. Plus a noob wouldn't upgrade from 4 to 8 inter. And 24 times 8 is 192. So that means you got 192 Interctors! And if you get about 30 carriers (which i think is almost all you can get) then you will have 240 Interceptors!! Thats a lot!

I'd like to point out that if you are playing ladder, money is quite hard to overcome and going for mass carriers may be near hard to get, not impossible though.
I recommend you do a drop of 8-12 dts on a money patch, but make sure you get a High Templer that knows Hullucination, and double the shuttles. Cuz you never know if theres defense in the enemy's patch if your toss....

I automatically start making lots and lots of photon cannons when i get the ability to. then i slowly build up an army of dark templar, with carriers an scouts to provide air support. Archons and Dark Archons are sometimes added to provide stronger ground cover. i usually just camp the templar in an area that is being fought over and attack survivors of the attacks. when the enemy has wasted all of their resources and units, i go in for the kill. another strategy is to try as hard as you can to mind control either a drone or an SCV. then you can build other units to help(hoards of marines, mutalisks, hydralisks, and a few battlecruisers really make a difference in a battle).

my strategy is to make lots of reavers, and then make arbiters, then after that,i do a arbiter recall and i recall them to the opponents money, or i used dragoons too! its fairly ez, although time consuming! JSUT DO IT FAST AND BE SURE TO GATHER ALL THE UNITS! in a big pack! so it will be ez to do big fat pack rush.

For a 1Pv1P game, I like to make mass zealots and just go for it. It works quite well when its done correctly.

if im playing a game where there is no rush for a while, i like to build a lot of cannons right in there base enterance but just out of range. then I like to drop mabey 6 reavers in front and have my cannons cover them while the reavers blast away!

Reavers suck and are for...well..Noobs. I don't find much use for reavers. They are ok againts hydras but are too slow and are useless againts air. Reavers suck againts goons since they aren't bunched up together. Plus if you are terran make a few tanks and missle turrets on the side(so no drop ships can drop off reavers) and then reavers are useless agiants you. Since tanks can own the pure noob reavers..

For me, i start by building a solid defense with a few cannons and zealot/goons. Then i dont plan my attack. I prefer to wait to see what the enemy is planning and spy on them before selecting a plan. I believe in counter strategy rather then having a set strategy. I do have a set build order tho.  I just neer have a planned attack. I always make a few observers to look around at the enemy base.

Trust me, i'll be ready.  In PvP, i havent lost many games. Right now im just getting used to BW again (3-0 right now). I build faster then you might expect  I scout the enemy a lot to see what the are going for and my defense consider of units as well as buildings. Depending on the map, my defense changes (ie, a money map, more defense, a non-money map, less defense and a lot more units)

Paigne- you are quite are an artist! you know what to do and everything, but maybe you shouldt scout out, because more likely when you scout, people will think your ready to attack and rush the crap out of you, happens to alot of my freinds and sometimes to me, now i have no scouting instincs
