You need the APM of a robot to make Mass Marine work in TvZ against Ultra/Bane/Infestor without Medivacs, Siege Tanks, or Marauders. Even then, Marines doing 2 damage to Ultralisks isn't very good for you. Also read: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=338554 | ||

Personal Medivacs for each of your Marine or even harem Medivacs can also be considered, although due to this game having supply that will reduce the amount of Marines you can make. And obviously kill off all but one of your SCV's at start of the game by making them attack eachother so that you can build more Marines. | ||

I went to blizzcon's multiplayer forum for SC2 (there were maybe barely 20 people in there) where I guess you're supposed to give feedback on multiplayer and balance and all. I'm pretty sure I was the highest ranked person in there, people were saying some really ridiculous stuff... some guy went on for like 10 minutes, and then said "and yea immortals being to be warped in?!" and everyone was just like seriously... we just listened to a guy bitch and he didn't even know immortals aren't warped in anymore. I think I was just broken into masters at the time, but everyone was complaining about how this and that was OP, and how blizzard never listens to them. Then I slowly got the feeling that none of them had ever heard of teamliquid, and were referring to the battlenet forums. So I raised my hand, interuppted, looked the blizzard guy in the face, with everyone quiet and said "please, I really hope you do not listen to a thing on the battle.net forums, because it's all terrible". They were about to kill me when I implied the game was balanced and that there problems were all really low level stuff that goes away soon lol. Turns out the guy had no clue what sc2 was, he was just some intern who worked on WOW. I don't even know what the point of that forum was, I think just a bunch of people whine to some guy who they think is important. Ps I am a 800+ master league terran so have got gosu micro and macro. lol | ||

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. | ||

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! | ||

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. you should be banned | ||

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... | ||

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. | ||

And for the record terran/protoss isn't harder or easier you have be good to play them all they're just different. I play zerg. | ||
