The only reason you would ever build a nuke is too win with more flair... you already have the game won when you use a nuke. Boxer says you're wrong. | ||

Didn't you read the Official Prima's Starcraft Strategy Guide? Everybody uses broodlings as a way to get a quick attack force deep behind enemy lines! Just be quiet newb. | ||

PvP: 1.Vs Carriers, possible the best counter to a carrier, maybe following mind control or stasis 2.When a protoss is trying to harass you with a speed shuttle the entire game and you get very frustrated I have actually made a couple scouts to deal with this and would do it again. PvZ: 1. If your opponet opens with 12hat in main gets enough lings than expands try going scout some time instead of sair, also scouts are much better to use in general vs overlrods because they kill them so much quicker, downside is though they cost more and build slower than sair. 2. Scouts+dweb can harass better than one might think. PvT: 1. Scouts work about the same vs Battlecruisers as they do carriers 2. Opening with a stargate build will often times confuse a terran player 3. Same properties as when someone is harassing you with dropships make a few scouts i guarantee they will stop trying to drop you as soon as you scare the piss out of them with your scouts although carriers are probably a much better idea i have used scouts too when i diddnt think carriers were logical. In FFA's, Scouts are the best unit in large numbers they will rape any ground attack force and eat air units in no time although i would definitely get a few sair for dweb sair + dweb are the best unit combination in ffa's. | ||

on the other hand, I'm certain I've built more infested terrans than anyone else on this forum. they're horrible and they have hardly ever been cost effective. if they were like templars and had 0 attack however their explosion was a spell, they would be awesome though. I mean, you can very occasionally pull off some cute stuff. e.g. drop 2 infesteds next to a cc and infest it or defending against drops with them or dropping in peonlines but unless the game is already over you're always best off avoiding building them. the nuke is definitely better. and ghosts are awesome in the right scenarios. | ||

Here's what I propose: MC is a broken spell. Make it any better and it might be too good. Same with broodling. A 1 hit kill anything spell is always a problem in games like this. I'd suggest make it a lot better, BUT, put a duration on it. Make it so that MC'd units revert back to player control after 10-20 seconds or something. Then make it cost like 125 mana and not rape the da's shields. Then, it would have a tangible use, especially vs units like lurkers and ultras that can change a pvz battle even in relatively small numbers. Also, maelstrom is too weak for 100 mana. Make it 75 or increase it's duration. Feedback is fine at 50, but it's impractical for most people to use the spell. They just aren't fast enough. It would be far far better if DA's were flying units, so that they could move quickly and easily enough to actually be able to hunt down enemy spell casters. As it is, you can almost never effectively feedback the other guy's casters before they've already casted their spells, because DA's get stuck behind their own units and etc. So, maybe increase the range of the spell to like, more than yamato range? That might actually make it usable by the general bw playing public. And by the general bw playing public, I mean the good players, like us. Scouts should be considered a compliment to corsairs, not carriers. There's very little that scouts do that carriers can't do a lot better. However, they do have an air to ground attack which sairs do not. Therefore, make scouts, like sairs, a stargate only unit. Screw upgrading them at fleet beacons. Scouts should be upgradeable at the cyber core, or preferably, for that price, come with their upgrades. If you still want to force them to get speed, make it cheap, fast, and available at the core, and make scouts cheaper too. Increase their armour and air to ground. You might actually see scouts get used occasionally, though it wouldn't change too too much because both zerg and terran already have to get anti air vs protoss already for other reasons. Turrets to defend against drops and dts, and in zergs case defense against sairs killing overlords. With sairs still requiring a beacon to get dweb, you wouldn't see toss's overpowering the other races with huge air forces early in the game. But, it might be a legitimate option for toss to hold his cliffs with scouts, for example. | ||

I'd rather have 1 DA with mael, 1 archon and 1 templar than 2 archons and 2 templars when fighting against mutas. I bet anyone who thinks DA's suck just haven't made any effort at incorporating them in their play. I have. mael is useful and I get it quite often. and I've won multiple games with it, too. | ||
