You can put vultures on the ground to counter lings and go valk/vult, then once you have 5+ valks switch back to tank/golie. I would just go hydras to defiler plague even swarm just as if I would vs. corsair/reaver but it would be 30 times easier. I honestly think mech sucks vs. zerg but if you do it timing will be everything. Timing as in when to attack when opponent is offguard, constant unit check with scan, map control. | ||

Actually, it seems that, excepting those who say "go search it up", most ppl would rather just talk it over again. Who cares if someone said something before. It's a discussion board, lets discuss! | ||

Not to mention that the last thread that discussed this was over a year ago. Since this game evolves, it would make much more sense to bring up a topic after a year instead of re-reading outdated information. | ||

I've usually been expanding right as I send out the vulture armies, and throw down my armories, more facts, and start getting goliaths. I found that valks are so much better than I origionally thought, and just 2-3 can really mess an army of mutas who would usually beat goliaths. Anyway I've been very successful, (probably a 75% win rate at C lvl pgt), on every map except Luna. I can't seem to do my usual strat on this map. The zerg always seems to sunken up more than usual, and then go for expos and macro the crap out of me. People have said that another common mech strat is 1fact into expo. Can someone give a rep, or go into a bit more detail? I think that a fast expo strategy might well be the solution to Luna. | ||

Metal doesn't work so well vs large numbers of muta with armor upgrades, supported by lings with armor. Terran really needs an ultimate unit that can deal with practically anything zerg makes. Something that can handle mutas and lings alright, but still handle lurkers or hydras as well with vessel and tank support. It's called the marine. | ||

I've found a few (2) at the Areola site, but he isn't meching in any of them. Edit: found some more on gg.net, but still no meching action. Does he have any AKAs? | ||

i dont think its so great withot it though. Nada beat Chojja with mech twice in the final(1 game was island though) whatever that retarded 3 player ice map with the natural in yoru base after your ramp, you can go fast cc on that and mech and it works really well. | ||
