Depending on how many ranged units your opponent plays, we recommend pushing Zax Ja’kar up to drop mines while you set up your defense and perimeter in your selected location. This will slow your opponent down and give you more time to create choke points. Don’t push too far with your captain though, as you will need to bring him back once you are set up.
