a huge part of how you play is based on how well you know your opponent. it only takes 1 game against someone to know what kind of style the opponent likes to play, but when they switch races you have to start over. thats probably the only reason i can think of | ||

switching races only works against bad players who have particularly weak matchups. at the highest level no matter how good you are with all 3 races, you wont beat a guy whos mastered 1 race and knows how to play all 3 matchups | ||

In the Julia situation it sounds more like he is just exploiting the map imbalances. | ||

It's got to be more than the low marine hp. Zerg units also have low hp, and Terran doesn't usually go mech against them. | ||

Zerg units also have low hp, and Terran doesn't usually go mech against them. zerg have ultras and defilers which help to absorb damage and let cracklings do the job, not to mention lings are melee. M&M dont have the same things. (and btw terrans go for mech ALOT in lategame TvZ, M&M SK style is very difficult and mechanic intensive so few would only do that) M&M needs stim+amove while lings only need amove. so marines only have <30 hp by the time they hit the mech units also very clunky especially if your apm/mechanics isn't great. while controlling similar groups of vults/tanks is much easier | ||

All of this + the fact that even goliaths destroy them pretty badly. | ||
