    I like ghosts the best. I use lockdown more than most other abilities, since it can turn the tables in a mech fight.

    And how about nukes? Nothing beats nukes!

    What? You think there will be just one ghost? In just one base?

    How many ghost do you have during a nuke drop sodium. I usually make a couple of reacotrs so I can have ehough for 3-4 nukes to attack the enemy base at different areas. That way, my chances of hitting the target base is greater.

    But you have to find the ghosts before you know where to psi storm.

    And if they have the site upgrade, good luck finding them. Unless you have the observer site upgrade, even they could have trouble finding them.

    Science vessels are my second favorite caster, mostly because of d-matrix. Psionic storms made almost completely useless!

    Best caster in the game was science vessel (D-Matrix, EMP, irradiate, even detection), then ghost (Lockdown, cloack), and then medics (HEAL).

    Queens were my favorite by a long way. Harass with Broodlings, take down Command Centers quicker with Infestation, Uncloak units, slow units, split up attack forces and slow resource line with Ensnare, spy and sometimes make them suicide a unit with Parasite... Perfect.

    My first favorite Spell Caster is the defiler, for plague. I mean, you can plague a protoss army and then rip ot to SHREDS with zerglings and hydralisks. Dark Swarm is also useful against Terran, and Carriers / Battle Cruisers are kinda weak to Plague as well.

    After that it's the queen. You get it early on at Tier 2, and it has a nice spell: Ensnare.

    I kindof like the Dark Archon too. Vs Zerg, you can cast Maelstrom on any of their units to lock them in a kindof golden, brownish cage. While they are stuck you can easily pick them off.

    There was some progamer that did this... I think the clip is on youtube.
    Search for " StarCraft " :)

    Hmmm. Dark Archon because it was a BAMF.
    Science Vessel because I'm a Terran player and use it often.
    Or Arbiter, as god damn expensive as they are.

    Arbiter, because nothing was more fun than seeing an opposing player shit his pants when you recalled your entire army to his front door ;D

    Science Vessel, because Irradiate made units run around like idiots and die.

    Queen, because you could use Spawn Broodling on Seige Tanks (which i still don't understand)
