As I said though, bio play has not to my knowledge been cited as a balance issue. The problem is really bad players on this forum see a few threads saying "terran mech is op vs zerg", so they jump on the bandwagon to make excuses for their shitty play by screaming everything they lose to is imba. Really getting tired of every matchup thread devolving into T IS OP LOLOLOLOL within 5 posts. | ||

I used to use Ghosts a lot but recently I realised Zealots - Not very effective Sentries - Usually too far and/or FF start of the battle Stalkers - More marauders do a better job Immortals - Banshee/Marauders/Marines but 90% of time Marines Templars - Maybe but isn't microing your MMM out of storm more important anyway? | ||

I dont find mech all that usefull either because hellions are useless against stalkers, and I find most toss players will have a fair amount of stalkers early. So I usually try to go something like Bio-mech, where I use Marines, Tanks, Thors (and vikings where necessary). But I have also had alot more success lately with Marauder, Tank, Viking. Originally Ghost Marine Medivac was working well for me, but again, toss players now just put down a cannon or two when they see it, and then tech to storm and rape. I play platinum so I'm not a star or anything, but those are just my experiences. | ||

Have been having a lot of trouble with early chargelots though with a lack of marauders, need to work out how to deal with that. | ||

Have you tried integrating a few hellions in when you see them massing lots? | ||

Be nice if I could sneak HTs into their bases and Feedback all of their Orbital Command energy away. In late game, they've always got a shitload of energy spare for COMSAT. Its the same equivalent as fighting those Banshee + Viking builds from back in Beta and they had the common sense to save a COMSAT for the early push. There's just not a damn thing you can do about it, so why bother trying? | ||

The second reason is that to use EMP AND stim you really need 2 control groups and that is just adding a level of complication to a situation where you simply only need 1 control group of units to win the game. Most games all Terran require to win is mass barracks spamming M&M with 1 starport making medevacs then 1a move into the protoss base and press stimpack when you see their army and its gg. Colossus/High Templar would like a word with you. | ||

maybe bio mech using vikings to snipe colossus. if lucky the toss will a-move, target the vikings and you can just micro to point where your bio isnt damaged at all | ||

Forcefield is godly. I win so many games against Terran because they charge up a ramp and let their army get split in two. Almost any bio 1 base-rush cant hurt you if you make good use of sentries and have something of an army. | ||
