hmm.. I though you discussed what units sucked, not your heritage... well well, now when where at it, iam from Sweden ^.^

 

can't believe there are people who think the vulture and the dragoon sucks...

 

Wonder if it's too early to put the cobra up here...

Reading back, I can't believe I took the time to post some of these... :no: I'm surprise nobody expressed hatred toward me for my text walls lol.

I kinda miss PowerkickasS going "do you have a source for that?" everytime after I give huge ass explanations on something. LOL, good times.

 

just put ur works cited at the bottom remy

make sure they are hyperlinks so we can correct u ezer.
lol

 

Heheh, 'sup Tweak, good to see you around. I missed all the old timers.

 

yeah im around just not posting as much. only like 3 or 4 times a day.

*power to the zerg!*

 

YEAH, YOU GOT THAT RIGHT BABY~!! *WOOT*

It's good to see that you still know what's goin' on Tweak, you still got it.

 

Just looking at the size of the first post gave me the envy to :toilet:

 

Queens have a use: ensnare cloaked units.

 

have´nt we only discussed ZERG units that sucked? or did i just miss a part? Otherwise, tell me the terran and protoss units that sucked.

 

The vulture is only useful at the early games.. I like it's booster, zerglings golt no chance against it.

 

lol, the early micro with a Vulture is awsome!
well, now that Terran dont have the Vulture, they will micro with another early unit,
and i guess its the Reaper.

 

Everything has a use, but even it the case you suggested, the queen really isn't useful. Under most scenarios, Zerg wouldn't worry about cloaked units anyway. But anyway, it's been talked about here.

@ Gasmaskguy, we've kinda talked about Terran and Protoss through discussions. I've just didn't do a write up on them like the opening post with Zerg.

 

ok, thanx. i will be searching for those posts... *searching*

 

Dragoons aren't bad... they just need backup.

 

Wow, suprised this old post is active. Well since it is I'll make one comment about Hyrads that you left out which is an addition advantage of range over melee that you did not mention. This may have been mentioned earlier, I don't feel like reading the whole ten pages to find out so if it has been discussed I'm sorry.

One huge advantage of range over melee is the ability for units in the rear ranks to also attack, whereas with melee units, only the front rank can attack. Lets examine some hypotheticals. Lets say you have 4 dozen lings and you meet 1 dozen gooms in a completely open area. Your lings are going to smash the goons. Now lets add a bottleneck to this senario. Now send your 4 dozen lings at 1 dozen goons on a hill guarding the ramp. Now only your front few lings can attack only the front few goons while the goons can attack. Now the 1 or 2 free shots the ranged units get that you talked about is amplified greatly. The front few goons may only get 1 or 2 free shots but the rest will get many. I don't know if the goons will win this battle, they might but if worst comes to worst they are going to kill most of the lings

Now if you have hydras the situation changes radically. The ranged advantage of the goons disappears. The hydros don't have any addition advantages, they just neutralize the goon's advantage. If we reverse the situation and have hydras guarding a bottleneck and have lots attack the hydras have a great ranged advantage.

 

Actually, if you face off range upgrade Hydras and ranged Dragoons, the Dragoons have a huge advantage. Not only is their HP and damage output higher, but the second row will fire too because of the longer range. With the hydras, the first rank will stop once in range.
