Introduction

TvT is a very interesting match-up because it combines several styles of gameplay in one match-up. You can find opposites in the same game with a very aggressive player focused on multitask by playing bioball against a player who plays very defensively by starting with mech. With the 1/1/1 the "mid-game" style doesn't matter. You are looking to be aggressive early in the game and your First Gas will allow this. ALive popularized this very "Korean" style of play that allows you to develop your multitasking and your micro-management in a match-up where positioning and decision making are kings.

Remember to continue the production of your SCVs while establishing your build order.

Note that you will have the choice between starting a Tech Lab or a Reactor on your Barracks depending on how you choose to start. You can go with a Banshee with the Tech Lab, and go with a 1/1/1 opening based on Hellions, Marines and a Banshee, or build a Reactor to go with a 1/1/1 opening based on Hellions, Marines and a Medivac.

This is an example of the perfect building positions for your aggressive strategy.
