Didn't stop people from trying. Even though they lost to almost everything all the time. Bbyong's crowning mech achievement was beating Classic on Outboxer after hiding it was mech long enough that Classic ran out of time to react properly. But to contrast that I could also find games of mech players losing blink stalkers, immortal drops or even carriers. | ||

Obviously YoDa didn't have liberators but it sounds similar. | ||

Yes, they're really strong against mech. But in HotS carriers were a meme more so than an actual unit people had to take seriously. | ||

But: 1) that guy probably off-raced 2) muta-ling vs. bio is much easier for the Z at low skill brackets | ||

DARKING was counting on you man. ByuL just made the late HotS anti-mech army and surprisingly, it still works. | ||
