Who would win? You can think of it in terms of mirror matches, such as stalker/colossus going against reaver/dragoon, or just in general, which game had the "superior" units? I think BW would wipe the floor with the SC2 units, Just the idea of reavers, goliaths, and lurkers going up against their sc2 counter parts provokes images of much blood(or blue...goo)

BW just because the units were so OP lol. Reavers would actually murder the entire terran army so fast.

I would have to give it to sc2 units because of AI besides that it would just be sc1 units they are more robust

But on another note this is not worthy of a thread.

Well, depends, all the aoe in BW is far more powerful. They had to nerf it hard in sc2

Well, what games mechanics are you using? Are sc1 units allowed to clump like sc2 units? Are sc2 units having issues with bad pathing?

BW units would win, hands down - anyone claiming that SC2 units would win has not played BW enough.

Cracklings from BW have DPS that would shred any SC2 unit army, except something like mass tanks/colossi. On the same note, the SC2 zergling is pathetic compared to the BW original.

Defilers from BW can cast plague; this spell deals 300 damage to all units in a big AoE cloud.

Siege tanks from BW deal 70 damage (un-upgraded) per shot to large units; this is way more than SC2 tanks.

High templar from BW have psionic storms that can deal 110 total damage (instead of 80 like in SC2), plus they can cast 3 times instead of 2 at full energy.

Carriers from BW have 4 armor, and battlecruisers from BW have 3 armor - these would own SC2 units.


BW units win, no contest.

Reavers alone will murder the entire terran army.

"Only" 300, lol? That's more than most ground units have - the only units that are left with ANY health at all are carriers, battlecruisers, and ultralisks.

It's like a ridiculously powerful version of FG, except you have to wait 'til tier 3.
