QUOTE(KepalaRadio @ Aug 30 2010, 12:16 AM) A problem i commonly face is when your initial MMM ball fails to do sufficient damage and Protoss players start pumping out Immortals like there's no tomorrow. What are the standard counters for Immortals? More MMM. Immortals still fail hard against Infantry.

QUOTE(roronoa_zorro @ Aug 31 2010, 02:00 PM) marauder as a tanker only their fire power half of marrine Dude, marauders literally rips through equivalent Tier 1 units of the other races. (Roaches and Stalkers). That and together with Marines, they can rip any Tier 1 army to shreds. Yeah, even as a T player I consider them somewhat OP.

I would recommend a couple of vikings over marines actually. VR can kite marines pretty easily. But all you have are a couple of raxes and maybe a factory, go marines 1st.

Not to mention Hydra pretty insane DPS which pretty much kills your Marines and Marauders if you don't outnumber them.

Any of you guys tried mixing hellions with bio army? They melt zealots and zerglings np, but they seriously are fragile.

QUOTE(wu ming @ Sep 23 2010, 06:42 PM) How to deal with mass mutalisk? They fly here & there harassing. Even the viking is no match for them. Too slow. Mass turrets own muta pretty badly. Massed thors as well, but that's more expensive and only marginally more mobile. Koreans use marines to counter mutalisk though.

So I hear. But on the lower leagues, Thors still work pretty well for most part. Still, I don't really get em nowadays as I find their slow-ass speed too annoying to deal with.

QUOTE(thejols @ Sep 25 2010, 02:40 PM) u know whats the main problem with mutalisk? MAP CONTROL. he contain u, make u spend more and more mineral and gas for turret, while he expand whole map. gain control = win. b.lord + corupter + muta gonna rape everything later on.. ya, i need help for this combo. any advise? yo mister Jin. ultralisk immune to stun right? but i get ur idea/advise generaly. p/s am i lucky or i find NA kinda easy abit than SEA. i can easily go gold, should be platinum if not my house blackout during placement match. in SEA im struggle to get past over silver.. (where i lost mostly on zerg. lol) Why would he make you spend more on minerals? At most, you invest 200 minerals on turrets and they hold off up to 6-8 mutas per turret. (with repairs). Meanwhile your MM ball can roflstomp their way to his base which probably only has speedlings.

Liberal scanning. Or ravens. Infestors are incredibly fragile and a bunch of MM will take care of the infested marines.

QUOTE(smartleader @ Oct 18 2010, 02:31 PM) Am still new here and still in the beginning league which is the 1st 50 unranked matches. Anyone out there would like to figure out how to deal with Protoss? Everytime they just turtled up ad what they do is just mass blink stalker and colossi. At the time when I can get to their base with destroying 2 rocks, its already too late. Had tried almost everything, MMM drops, Hellion drops and Banshee harass but it seems like it just won't work out. Mass stalkers? Counter with mass rauders with vikings or Thors. Add medivacs to suport and you're good to go. (which also goes without saying when you see him turtle, expand like rabbits and use PFs to hold expos and delay his push.)

QUOTE(smartleader @ Oct 18 2010, 02:44 PM) I actually did fast expand when he turtled, although am at 2 bases building my army but it seems like it still not enough. Oh ya, most of them ad in chargelots with the blink stalkers as well, making my Marauders extremely vulnerable although with Stim and Shell upgrades. As you mention Viking, yes I did get couple of em to counter the colossi but the mass stalkers just push them back everytime I try to shoot em as colossi is far more behind everytime. Actually that am wondering, whether this will happen in normal games? You can actually scout earlier and harass them earlier without those Destructible Rocks blocking the way. Typically yeah. In normal games, you can get your scout in by the 5 minute mark. If you see mass gateways and any of the sort, you can opt for a timing push to decimate his army/base before he gets his collosi out. Harass is also easier, but not much, since most toss will still wall/FF you out.

Shoulda known was a bad idea.
