Robo after proxy cyclones

I'm wondering what is the best course after a toss got robo and 1 immortal when you try to proxy cyclone them, it holds it way too effectively and really leaves you behind, I haven't had any succes.

Or if theres other type of proxy/all in that works in TvP (besides 2 base 5 rax), I'm thinking banshees but those too are too easy to hold it seems, what is the current strongest one?.

Post a replay of your loss doing this strategy. What's your build? What's the protoss build? Does P gate expand?

I do double gas proxy reactor cyclones, my problem is when the protoss goes gate->nexus-> core and then goes for a robo and cronos an immortal and gets 1 SB. I don't get enough time before the immortal is out to deal damage, I try to pull SCVs and continue cyclone production but I can't deal with the immortals.

I don't have replays here because I don't have my old PC now but I will do another thread when I play some more games.

again, replay would be helpful to follow everything.

here is a replay of me doing a proxy factory vs a dt follow up.

1 immortal dies to 2 cyclones with just 2 SCVs repairing. Focus fire and have the SCVs on auto repair. Stay clear of shield batteries and focus pylons.

Once your 3rd and 4th cyclone comes out, rally 2 workers to your aggression along with the added cyclones and win.

That's called a build order loss. If you proxy cyclone and he goes robo... gg

Attack before the robo is down? The second your two cyclones finish you should be attacking.
