The Terran 3 RAX is called a 3 RAX because you throw down three barracks. The Terran 3 RAX is very strong against all match ups, even if scouted this build can still be deadly.
However the 3 RAX I'm going to be touching on is the 3 RAX that is most effected against Zerg, so I would not recommend doing this build order against any other class - I will post other 3 RAX's that is effective against the rest of the match ups.
The build order goes like this:
1. At 10 supply get a supply depot at the chock.
2. At 11 supply get your first Barracks at the chock (make sure you place carefully because an addon needs to fit)
3. At 13 get refinery
4. At 15 supply get a orbital command, also build 1 or 2 marines.
5. At 16 supply build a supply depot to finish of the wall.
6. Build a engineering bay
7. Build a reactor on the first RAX
8. Build a second RAX, then third RAX
9. Research +1 weapons.
10. Build your third supply depot
11. Build a Tech-Lab in the second RAX
12. Get a reactor on the third RAX
13. Mass marines and marauder then push.
Team Liquids recommendations to transition out of this build is :
"After the 3 rax push it is common to expand, upgrade Stimpacks, tech to Starports and start supporting your units with Medicas. However, if your opponent defends the push but loses a large number of units, you are slightly behind and your position will depend on how well you defend your expansion from the Mutalisks harass. If the zerg opts for Infestors with fungal growth, consider switching to Mech play, focusing on a mix of Thors, Hellions, and Siege Tanks. Alternatively you can continue to go Bio units after you reduce his Mutalisk count, utilizing Medivac drops and mobility, preventing your opponent from securing more expansions. In this case, opt for fast upgrades and a few Siege Tanks for support."
This Build is really effective against Zerg however this build can be hard counted by banelings, and lack of micro by the Terran.
I hope this build helps some Terrans own Zergs..
I will be posting more builds soon, stay up to date!!!! (:
Keep 'em coming!
