I don't know why people hate the marauder, it's just an extension of the marine to make bio work against more unit compositions, you still need to mix in marines.

The warhound is nothing like the marauder, people should not compare them. The warhound is more like a caricature of what the community says the marauder is. (boring a-move unit)

Well, you need units that are exciting and units that make match-ups work. The marine is the former and the marauder is the latter, but the existence of the marauder is one of the reasons you can make marines to begin with. As long as pure marauder strategies do not become prevalent there is nothing wrong with the design imo.

The marauder is totally functional and does a job. I don't see the reason people hate it, but yet have not problem with the marine. People claim the marauder is "boring", yet every unit in the game can't be some crazy, super fast, glass cannon that needs amazing micro to make good. Some units just need to stand there, shoot and back up when told.

I like how quickly they can snipe buildings in drops. That can make them exciting.

What is more exciting is tactical or strategic play to make sniping a building a real treat to watch pulled off, rather than a few seconds of carelessness or poor postioning that gets punished as hard as loosing and expansion instantaneously...

the reason tvz is amazing in broodwar is because literally every unit used except for the ultralisk and goliath (only in mech) is a crazy superfast glass cannon that requires amazing micro

The tempest range looked absurd in the Battle Report. Really want to try myself soon.

You can at anytime. Look up HOTS custom game in the arcade. It's usually on top of the list, and it's even available in 4v4 format.
