Expand towards the right. Crawl towards the top right. Some players prefer to send a surveyor towards the top or the bottom left field.

I tend to base crawl with my tech buildings and then sometimes ill expand to the one to the south or sometimes to block my opponent ill expand to the one on their side

mcv move after 2nd pp is the best move in almost all situations. typically you should go to your natural but sometimes i get lazy and go aggressive because i can't be bothered trying to micro my mcv to go through my tib field without glitching out constantly (this is for top position)

Anything other than MCV move to natural after 2nd ref 2nd pp is a big mistake assuming standard play up to that point and that your opponent is not significantly weaker than you are. For Crawling you can get easily punished by bike spam.

It can be standard to go 2 WF's off one field, especially in Nod mirrors.

so youre supposed to move your mcv to your closest expansion and then move it all the way across the map to the other one?

youre not " supposed " to do one thing in every matchup in every situation on that map. The game isnt' that simple. sleep.gif. It depends on the situation and the faction you are playing against.

its not so hard

just don't think about your base, think about your units and your production queues. Worry about attacking and microing, and check your MCV a few times to make sure its not getting sniped on the move or bugging out in your tib field.
