Marine (continued)

atm, the shield gives 15 hp which will make a huge difference with m&m in tvz. if the lurkers remain unimproved then they will get pwned by the new m&m combo unless the person using m&m is really bad at micro.

the firebat cannot be compared against the marine vs ranged units becuase it had to get close to them before it can attack, most of their hp is lost on the way and it's impossible for medics to heal them on the move. plus it's hard for them to focus fire and they did pathetic damage to large units.

the extra 15 hp that the marines get will make them last a lot longer than just 3 more zergling hits because of medics, suken colonies and hydras will stand absolutely no chance against m&m now (they didn't stand much of a chance even without the shield, but with good micro one could focus hydra fire to kill marines individually, it's a lot harder now)

 

All I am going to say is that marine is as good as its gona get people and you all know this so lets drop the arguing and start having smart conversations. I have no idea what that would look like on this thread but yea you already know. peace.

 

if you want a smart conversation, then start it yourself

so uh, who wants to have marines mount med-er...i mean, siege tanks

 

i would like to see marines mounting medi-er... i mean siege tanks

 

I don't mind mounting a medic but a seige tank would be kinda dangerous don't ya think? Isint that why the driver is on the inside and not outside?

 

Now, that is a smart conversation.

 

Mounting medics, lawlz. And so the reign of the marine rapists start again.

 

I thought the neural resocialization was supposed to stop the rape

 

Yeah, I know. But it would be hilarious if a Marine got past all that stuff and found his... er, impulses again.

 

or if the sci vessel EMP could shut them off

 

Please continue this type of discussion in Space Junk.

 

omg what if a zergling started humping a medics leg

 

what if a mutalisk-er, nevermind

 

What if a lurker... Never mind.

 

what if a? oh nvm monsters took down my power lvl..... FIENDS....*runs off mumbling*

 

Marines should have the pile-up effect when they die ..such that they'd form a wall of corpses to protect the backline siege tanks.





Jokes aside..there isn't much you can improve from the marine.. as it's the earliest ranged unit that can be healed. Marines are always down to quantity come late game.

 

Pile of corpses? Now that is one of the few intelligent things in the thread, but of course, maybe not.

 

i'd rather have death explosion, as damaging as a firebat attack. little throwback, y'know?

 

That would be awesome, but it could be a little imba.

 

well, you could have it affect your own units too, if you think it's that strong
