Question
I am a Terran silver league player in the top 25. In my current TvZ games I get attacked by mutas very quickly, normally in the first 7 minutes. I normally try and go mass marine while tech switching to thors, but as thors are late game tech I never have enough to hold off an attack. What would be the best early game unit to combat mutas?
Answer
Since you mention the 7 minute mark, even without scouting, you should be able to find a way to put down an engineering bay about 5 minutes in and that will give you plenty of time to get up a few turrets up around the 7 minute mark.
Turrets are very good versus a low number of mutas (which they will have around the 7 minute mark, 5-7 max).
With the early engineering bay you can easily drop 100 minerals and gas for a quick +1 attack upgrade which will help versus zerg.
Of course you should always scout and not spend needless minerals on the turrets if they are not going mutas. The engineering bay is still helpful for the upgrades.
