They could have done it in via Micro mechanics, but yeah they really didn't know what to do with them. They probably should have made Interceptors pierce through armor upgrades, have +2 armor and always stay out (like fly around the carrier). That'd have made them far more powerful. | ||

Unfixable without completely changing several other units. Corruptors render carriers useless, and marines render carriers useless. Without weakening marines - which would completely change the game - or weakening corruptors (which are only okay anyway), there's no way you can make carriers viable. Make carriers strong enough to beat these two units would likewise unbalance the game irretrievably, as marines are always the backbone of anything but a pure mech army (which doesn't work against Protoss anyway) and Corruptors exist specifically to counter Carriers and Battlecruisers. | ||

Putting numbers up like that convinces no one, there's a reason why no one uses carriers and why they are being removed. Just let it go. You can't kite Carriers though Vikings will take damage from Carriers no matter what. | ||
