SC/BW Archons would be fun against the crowded Infantry-Blobs you see in SC2 :D.

After reading the thread title. the first thing that came to mind was a PvP with a huge colo/stalker ball on the sc2 side, and reavers on the bw side... and the reavers would shoot, and you would be all like "yeah, this ball is gonna explode", but then the reaver targeted some unit in the middle and the shots were all bouncing around doing nothing

Other than that. i think bw units would win though.. just compare bw siege tanks to sc2 siege tanks... or bw ultras to sc2 ultras...

For the most part sc2 dps > bw dps, but just imagine what a few reaver would do to a terran bio ball. One shooting tons of marauders and marines ^^

The real question that the OP never answered that would make all this arguing more coherent is if the BW units have the BW AI or the SC2 AI and vice versa.

If they both had the same AI (either way, both with BW or both with SC2) then BW would roflstomp SC2 no matter what.

If it was BW ai vs SC2 ai though sc2 would probably come out on top cuz of better pathing, unit/building selection, etc.

Broodwar siege tank fully upgrade rapes all your sc2 ground unit put together even with max upgrade sadly sc2 sucks in term of unit composition and dps.

Depends a lot on the conditions and how you convert mechanics from one game to another. But overall I'd say BW wins if it's "X supply of late game army goes against X supply from the other game" while SC2 wins every real game due to 2 worker advantage at the start and macro mechanics.

Brood Lords launch broodlings, triggering spider mines, which the broodlings lure over to the Terran's Goliaths and Tanks.

Psi storm in bw is just so much stronger. It'd be devastating.

We're assuming that the two races have equal mining capabilities. BW, yes you only have 4 workers, but you also mine 8 minerals per trip and 8 gas per trip.


That would be completely nullified if I send my 6 SC2 workers against your 4 BW workers at the start. But of course, BW SCVs were much beefier.!

SC1 T vs SC2 P will be quite different.

For one,terran will need to invest quite a bit in proper AA now that scouts are gone,and they cant really go for pure vulture/tank and some turrets for like 10 mins

Immortals could be quite devastating early-mid game

Terrans would need to be careful about placing mines near tanks due to zealot charge and blink
etc

higher DPS =/= a win
