EPTI've been using all the hellions for the Zerglings obviously.
I've been using the tank and the one ghost that I forgot to mention for the group of banelings.
And the marines and medevac for the mutas.
Challenge mode Tactical command help?

You will lose a few on the muta but just stim once right before they get there and you should do well enough to get gold. No need for ghost. The tank can take all of the banelings and still live. | ||

Mutas: Marines and medivacs. I used stim just before mutas show up. Lost 1 marine. Idk if stim is optimal there though, I had to micro carefully since they all started with low health. Zerglings: Hellions. Just micro them a little and you won't lose any. | ||

It's hard to kill the mutas with zero losses, you need to juggle marines in and out of the medivacs to keep them alive. After you finish all 3 rounds, you are able to go back and replay only the rounds you want to in order to improve your score to get below 10. vs the mutas i took marines + ghost + dropship i let ghost take the initial hits and then i used dropship to lift him @ red/orange HP. after that u may lose 1-2 marines (without micro). | ||

Zerglings - Hellion micro. Reasonably easy. Mutalisks - cloaked ghost snipes six times, then just straight up attacks. Marines stim before mutalisks arrive so you get some healed back up. | ||

vs. Banelings: 1 tank + 2 hellions. siege it close to the dome, far down south. Have the hellions further top. Tanks will fire first, then attack with hellions and just run away, easiest ever. vs. Zerglings: The rest of your hellions, pretty straight-forward, just run n' gun. vs. Mutas: This is the tricky part, you'll usually get 1/2 deaths here unless you have perfect micro, here's how: All marines, 2 medivacs and the ghost. Pre-preparation: Run the ghost up in the middle of the depo and the dome. Spread your marines out as far away from the dome as you can, towards the middle. Put your medivacs slightly infront of the marines. Have 4-5 marines slightly further ahead, so that you know which ones will get hurt. The pull: As soon as the event starts, stim your marines. Now select your ghost, and queue up sniper rounds as fast as you can, then shift-attack him towards the marines. Now, since the marines/medivacs are so far away, the mutas will come in kind of slowly after hitting the depo a bit. Here's the important part: Your medivacs will tank the first couple of hits. The splash will damage the marines up front, so you've gotta pick up all the yellow-ish life marines from the front line, and run the medivacs to the back then unload manually (clicking the portraits, not using the d-button). | ||

For the banelings you can actually get away with just the tank. Even if every single baneling hits the tank it will still live (and all the banelings will have exploded) | ||

The fact that you were able to get through those without a single unit lost makes me cry myself to sleep a little, especially since I'm Korean.  | ||
