I go guardians in my D+ level games all the time vs. Protoss if it turns into a long macro game. Then the only way most people fight it off is with storms, so then I push with mass cracklings with defilers after lots of storms used. People rarely have reavers for that long at D and it hits before mass archon with reaver support tech transition.

Wow, people didn't know how to use scouts before? Thats sad. I was taught by my bro who did the exact same thing ur doing. He can beat me and I never use scouts versus him just to try to prove that scouts suck. I just make 1 corsair and scout where his stargates are and then push into wtf base he has/ doom drops him(I love proxying robotics facilities). On b.net I use scouts every chance I get.

Guardians and devourers occasionally show up in pro ZvP matches - Devourers to counter corsairs, if Protoss is using more than one hotkey of corsairs, and guardians to harass expansions while hiding over cliffs, if the Protoss doesn't have a stack of corsairs.
My strategy is to fork people.

I don't know why people don't use Guardians more often. They rape so hard. If you have the money to get them, why not? 2 or 3 can really screw up a Protoss who has only ground army.

Yeah I played the campaign non stop back when starcraft was new. It's definitely a solid way of familiarizing yourself with the game and learning hte basics. you need to relearn strategy to play online though...

I still find Broodwar Zerg mission 8 and/or 9 pretty tough. Especially if you want to finish 9 under 25? minutes to unlock the secret mission.

Zerg mission 9 is easy. Just go hydralurk, keep making hydras and lurkers, get both upgrades for hydras, and push into Protoss by 12:00 and you should win. I can even do it and my macro is a piece of shit.

Zerg mission 8 is very challenging, I admit, and I haven't yet beat it short of a maxed out ground army or a Guardevourer 18/18 with DT's coming in at the last second. I'll beat it with something smaller when I stop hating the mission.

The only reason I'm good at campaign is because I'm a minimalist. When Prima told me "Make 3 groups: 12 Zealots, 12 Goons, and 12 Scouts", I'm like "Fuck it. I don't need 12 of each. I can do it with 6 and micro."

any tips on how to play campaign to make it fun. I play on my mac with shit connections so i play campaign while handicaping myself.

I've beat all protoss levels with only scouts on offence and cannons on defense (for maps i can make scouts). I've beaten all terran with wraiths on offence and bunkered rines on defense. I've beat all zerg with mutalisk on offence and sunken/spore on defense.

All doing this w/o a mouse and just that mousepad shit mac has. I've gotten quite good at it =).

Anything else i should try?
i type teamliquid into the url subconsciously... all...the...time...

Try winning all the Zerg missions with Cracklings. Only cracklings. And spore colonies, of course.
