    you forget unless he has the 50+ energy upgrade his armor which i belive still effects it havn't really cared enough to check and yes emp is a longer range.





    Terran are my favorite and so much fun to micro mange why do you think the top player only plays them.
    Not to mention we are terrans

    Hail to the terran brothas ;D
    Besides they are climatic faction in this game (what is suprising...in other games terrans are just a dumbf***s). Only in SC and Freespace i felt playing as true humans, not a human-like dolls.

    My favorite race has to be Protoss because I play them all the time.. I just like Zealots, Goons, Reavers, Obs, HT, DT, etc.. Ohh and when I play against zergs, I always try to get early corsairs to harass the overlords.. hehe

    but I'm not a fan of the protoss campaigns..

    i would hav to pick the terran
    took me a while to get used to ther strengths and weaknesses, but the dedication paid off
    terran is the only race, in my opinion, that you can come back and win from a very huge disadvantage

    I do not think I've played as terran/protoss except in campaign. Maybe once or twice... nukes >:D

    But seriously, my favorite race is Zerg. They're just so..COOL..

    and who doesn't love a swarm of adrenalized zerglings? :good:

    oh oh! and don't forget the kickass ultralisks.

    plus zerg start with detectors from the VERY beginning. don't have to build shit. i don't think it's possible for zerg players to be hit by dark templar or cloaked wraiths ;D i have overlords whereever i am.

    since you have to pay with a drone for zerg all their buildings cost an extra 50

    Terran are the best if you can micro they are even better

    I got to really say I like all the races, but I'm only good at Zerg, so I went with Zerg. I think each has their specials. The only thing I hate about Zerg is that they are weak on life and they are not that strong. I like Protoss too, but I think they are too expensive. Terran I think take too much time to make a lot of good units I think lol. All three races are balanced so each one is good. When I use Zerg and enemy got carriers and etc. that hit air I bring a whole mass of overlords for distraction either hydras too or mutalisks. Protoss I guess I just go dragoons and zealots in the beginning and carriers if it carries on too far. I use to play Protoss all the time, but for some reason I'm better at Zerg then Protoss lol. Terran I barely play, I'm too slow to play them lol, but they are good. lol This made me want to play I might play Protoss soon haha.

    singuris and zombine this is asking which race you like the most, not which unit. :)

    Darth Verg, It is true that the zerg are least likely to run out of resources. that's why i always use zerg if I'm not playing money map. On money map however we can go carrier-crazy, not as effective on terrans cos of lockdown.

    Zerg can also be very powerful if your playing money map. I often use 36 guardians, 12 devourers and 2 overlords that embark on a trial of mindless destruction. But don't use this against protoss cos they got the psionic storm. It works very very well on terran. :)

    Protoss for me, love micro skillz! ;D. But.. have to say.. that does distract me from the important factor of actually building units, lol. Rarely use carriers, but thats because its very rare for me to either survive to that point or I kill the person/people beforehand. Reaver drops FTW! kills mass workers for very little effort. Against zerg I like to use corsairs to take out overlords and stop their unit production. Prices are a bit expensive I guess, but as long as you have enough probes and enough multi's then its not neccessarily a big problem. Also Protoss are the only team which can build all the units in the whole game in the normal game, granted this has probably happened in less than 0.0000001% of games.

    me i could not pick one race because i love the massing power of the Zerg just sending waves and waves of Zerg to just wipe your enemy from existence or the god like defense of the protoss or offensive possibilities of there air i just love them and then the destructive power of the nukes and siege tanks from Terran to destroy even the amazing defense of the protoss or (as I've seen quite often) the suicidal destruction of your self and the enemy army and oh how many other things for each race there is no way i could pick just one race

    Not to hard to figure out what my fav is, eh? Well, obviously I love the Zerg race out of the three. However, I only play them for fun, and when going against the computer. When faced with human opponents, I prefer to use Protoss, because I am just overall better with them, while I still haven't mastered the art of the Cerebrate. ;)

    It's always good to change around a bit occasionally. Maybe not for me to go terran tho.. I just plain suck at them and it makes me feel sad :mad:
