i think it's either: lurker, dt, ghost, carrier, wraith
carrier will beat ghost imho. ghost don't have enough energy to take down a carrier. but wraith imho beats carrier. and wraith can beat any other stuff too.
so i go with wraith.
EDIT: ya... dark archon with mind control but dies to dt.
malestrom + mc =)

umm, even without cloaking, a full energy HT might be able to kill a wraith
|
btw, archon and ultras tie, as the one who hit first wins the battle...

It's DA. consider that the only thing it can't beat right away are cloaked mechanical units. In other words wraith/obs. Obs is an obvious tie.
Now wraith is tricky. it depends how the fight is set. do the units see each other since beginning? if so, assuming no other aids, that means wraith is in range of mind control, meaning DA wins. If not, wraith will have to find the DA then cloak, since wraith can't stay cloaked forever and just look around -- means it has to be visible at least until it sees the DA, meaning the DA sees it and mind controls.
Now let's assume somehow a cloaked wraith got within attacking range of a DA. with wraith's shitty anti-ground attack and da's regenerating shields, it's plausible (anyone wanna test?) that DA can live until wraith runs out at which point it's gg wraith.
so DA even possibly (likely?) beats wraith and ties with obs. we have a winner 
without da, random fun ideas: medic against anything visible can flare and never be found again.. >_> queen can ensnare anything and run around like an idiot (one of the fastest units in the game?) and pretty much tie everything it can't broodling

In contrast, what do you think is the worst 1v1 unit?
I'd have to go with the Dragoon.

I'd have to go with the Dragoon. no its scourge, it dies to everything and even kills itself when it attacks. But since it has less HP than an infested terran it wins.

without micro? dragoon would still be beating shit like vulture/goliath/marine/workers/firebat/hydra etc.
with micro dragoon would do even better vs like adrenaling or ultra or idk

Can we use hero units? I'd say Infested Kerrigan would mop up most units other than say a science vessel or a smart vulture.

this thread has yielded more interesting discussion than i had originally expected... haha, not bad

DA with upgrade is 250 energy right? maelstrom = 100, mindcontrol = 200? shoot, can't maelstrom then mind control. but i guess DA can keep running so it's draw, not loss.
Or we can use mind control for 150. That's what I do.

Archon / Carrier. All other answers are dumb.

Marine / Defiler.

lets just assume cloaking doesnt exist because that doenst define a "strong" 1v1 unit...so i'd probably have to be the battle cruiser or carrier, bc has an edge due to the yamato cannon, but carrier has hella hp and huge upgrades....no other unit compares
|
can cloaked wraith kill DA with 3+shiled before mana is gone?
anyway I think its DA.
