    How to not be really, really bad at StarCraft II (with tutorial videos)

    Below are some basic, but very helpful starting strats/build orders for the 3 races, from Husky. They've proven a great foundation for me. For other tutorial videos from him, make sure you check out his tutorial section on YouTube: YouTube - HuskyStarcraft's Channel

    If you're not even up to understanding build orders in their entirety, scroll down to the second post for some fundamentals.

    Medivacs can be gotten so early, and allow terrans crazy mobility in the early game, not to mention reapers, who are pretty much the best unit mobilty wise early game....

    Yeah D may have gone down the wrong path trying to categorise the races by mobility.
