Mech works so bad against Zergs these days..... just dont do it.
Just look at Oov, he got PWNed by IXP trying to do mech.[/QUOTE]
What if Oov played MnM and still got "PWNed" by ipx, would you tell us not to do it then?? Why not post the rep/vod or discuss the game and talk about WHY he lost rather than just being useless.

U can stfu I didnt mean it was the worst strat ever and ur gunna get PWNED everytime u use it.... i mean it works a hell of a lot less than mnms do. Do u see Oov getting pwned more when he uses mnm? No. How bout u understand what ur reading b4 u go saying shit that doesnt give the answer.

Goliaths are better versus plague also because they DONT RELY ON MEDICS WHO FUCK UP ON PLAGUE and don't get raped by a couple ling hits after being plagued...


I'm late to this thread but I didnt notice anyone pointing out that Goliaths who get hit by plague get killed in ONE ling hit. How is that any different than marines/medics?? At least with medics you can run them away for a bit and they wont bother using up their juice, then when the plague is over you can restore your whole force.

Im almost amused your considering hydra ling to counter metal. Almost.


Why? Because it is quite good vs metal, particularly early on. You would be surprised. Maybe play some better Zergs, dogg.


And lastly you forgot the importance of having a BILLION MARINES firing at once and how much their upgrades help them rape. +1 weapon for a marine is a 15% increase in attack strength, you also get a ton of them. So its just a huge bonus to have upgrades higher than your opponent. I'm not saying mech is unwinnable but they both have strengths and weaknesses and imo Mech is a little worse in practice because of how much less agressive early on it is.

edit: Fuck I thought this thread was only 2 pages I didnt realize it was 6 and had already run its course: [

Yeah, the advantages and disadvantages of mech are shown clearly in those replays. Night[Mare] was probably directing that to Reason, not you.

How about since your writing in MY LANGUAGE you understand what your writing before you post it.
Speak properly, and in as few words as you can, but always plainly; for the end of speech is not ostentation, but to be understood.

WTF ARE 1-1-1 GOLIATHS?

NEW PATCH CAME OUT?

GOLIATHS HAVE SHIELDS???????????????????????????


Try playing the game you love posting about so much once in a while, when you see goliaths they have 3 upgrade icons in the wireframe.

1-1-1 I write it as I see it, and if you weren't so eager to surf the waves of flame you would have thought about what you said, and not said it.


if you werent a newbie
you would know that you pay for 2 upgrades and get 3!

and no!
goliaths dont use the u-238 upgrades! or infrantry weapons! despite the fact they have dual cannons!
they just use standard mech attack upgrade!







you havent played for a long time!
the game has evolved!
no more chainguns!

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL I KNOW THAT IM NOT SAYING THAT YOU PAY FOR THREE, I said there are three icons, I've said that twice, try learning better English I can't believe your still getting it wrong.

are you really that stupid?
the only people bugging you about the 1-1-1 are just dicking with you and those who are serious are even less intelligent than yourself, and yet you keep replying to them.

boxer used mech cuz it was on nostalgia and zerg only has one gas to start out with. It would not work on any other map between two equally skilled players because zerg will outmass you and goliaths can only attack one thing at a time, etc etc etc. why is there 6 pages

Wow, thanks for bringing so much depth to this discussion with no evidence and even no glimpse of what you were thinking when you wrote that. Nevermind all the problems everyone has mentioned in this thread (of which you refuted none of them), mech's solid!

Mech is a very difficullt build in the wrong hands; it will make your victory much harder than if you just played straight up TvZ.
