I really wonder why carriers actually need to be viable, with how absolutely devoid of micro or any thought they are

Because it's an iconic unit. The problem is that it doesn't work nearly as well as in bw

and what kind of reason is that? "oh, we need it, it was cool 10 years ago", like what?

Why not try to make it work? Don't see the issue tbh, units which are iconic for starcraft should be playable in starcraft

no, every unit should be playable in some situations, and that's always been the case with carriers. I don't see a way to make them actually a good unit for the game, they're possibly the most a-move and mindless unit in Starcraft


its gonna take more than that to beat wol colossi or hots SHs as most amove

SH's actually took skill, aside from games on Overgrowth, it was always the better playing winning. SH turtle was the hardest ZvP style to play, while mass carrier is the easiest PvZ. pretty big difference if you ask me


i thought we were talking micro wise

when you went SH's, you had to also make queen/viper/corruptor/infestor

and also, there's much more to the game than micro, carriers are just very basic in every fundamental part of Starcraft - basic macro, basic micro, basic positioning, basic composition

Snute's mistake was therefore that he didn't neural a probe to tech to his own carriers.

back in the SH era I played a game against a zerg who neuraled my scv and teched up to mass raven himself
-then he lost horribly because he had no experience how to play with mass raven.
