Masters Terran here.

I had this problem for a little while until I realized that marines can be upgraded with stim packs and combat shield. Now I just roll everyone.

Don't be silly, mining gas cuts into your marine production. Preferably you want 12+ rax on 1 base with 4 orbitals to maximize your mineral intake, then when you're ready to push take all your scvs with you.
Oh and don't worry, if the first attack doesn't work simply use your mules and make a new army!
If your attacks are somehow not working you should work on your micro, but if you are lazy like most terrans you can simply ascend to a higher plane of existence and follow up with two starport cloaked banshee, while landing your orbitals at all of your expansions!

Trust me, I know what I'm talking about, I'm a 850+ points master player on NA!

I'd recommend you start by walling yourself in with 3x 15cc, that way you can get 4x mules super fast, and you don't need to worry about your scvs taking up supply, as you can simply kill them off and let your imba mules do 100% of the mining, allowing you to constantly pump marines out of 40 rax, and max out with 200/200 marines only.

Mass marine strategies must be aggressive, and keep unit counts low. If your opponent can afford an Infestor/Baneling/Ultra composition, you've failed at mass marine.
My strategy is to fork people.

If you can't kill your enemy with marines, then you probably don't have enough marines.

Hi. I have been following strategies in using marines as a counter to all units but have hit a snag. Even though I'm using mass marines I can't seem to counter a massed infestor baneling ultra composition. Marines are clearly underpowered and I suggest a buff in their DPS. Discuss.

Ps I am a 800+ master league terran so have got gosu micro and macro.

Well op, if you can't become pro after massing marines, I hear Walmart is hiring.

Maybe then your sick gosu micro might be put to better use at stacking shelves.

there is one thing i always wonder

http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Ultralisk

it says that ultras are strong against maraudars , but why you always build maraudars to fight ultras then???? change that field to marine please.


Nah ultras melt to marines. They're basically for tanking tank volleys so your banes live long enough to get kited.

If you cannot win with marines you must be playing to many terrans. Who build more marines and a move better than you...

Hey, if you drop a mule, you can get out an extra 5 marines.

Just my 2 cents.

I like this approach alot, however I like to continually build SCV's. Four CC's worth of worker production sets you up nicely to do several marine + scv all ins in every game. I think this is the best way to play.

Actually, every single protoss unit,including mothership, probes, carriers, immortals, or even buildings, are warped in. It is you who are wrong sir.
