SC BW hands down. Had a lot of OP but awesome units. Made BW fun :D
Would be fun to see how they combat FFs though. Still would see BW maul Sc2 to death.

SC2 Units win hands down. Mostly because brood war units AI is rediculous. Reaver scarabs dancing in the mineral unable to figure out which worker it wants to hit. Or retarded dragoons with their pathing.

It depends on who's controlling them. The more skilled the person, the more powerful BW units are.

BW has stronger spells but has terrible AI, which isn't that big an issue when controlled by top players. SC2 has easier to use, dumbed down a-move units. But you can't do anything special with them.

BW has tons of units with moving shot. SC2 doesn't. The muta stacking and wraith stacking would also murder SC2 units (Thor's the only exception) with their hit and run attacks.

BW would rip everything in starcraft 2 just because the design and pathfinding is much better in sc2. In other words BW ling > SC2 ling (technically).

I think 3g blink stalkers would beat everything in BW, late game BW would win hard but early rushes are more potent in SC2.

one-on-one is pretty unimportant, as an army the BW units will definetly win

4 Warp Gate all in.

Crushes.

Attack at (SC2 timer here) 5:35 with 4 gates, 6 Stalkers and 1 Zealot. Would easily crush.

Basically its overpowered macro vs. overpowered units if it were 1v1. If 1v1, then overpowered macro. Mules, larva, and warp in/chrono basically means that early rushes are unstoppable for BW.

In terms of units/army compositions, brood war hands down. Every unit was so crazy.

combine plague + psi storm... if that doesn't do the trick, throw in your dark swarm/cracklings... that don't work? Protoss death ball with full arbiter or carrier support... That don't work? Terran Mech with full 3-3 upgrades... that don't work? Send in Flash... period.

Screw it, instead of nerfing units for balance, lets just make everything ridiculously overpowered. BUFFS FOR EVERYONE.

Just the sound effects alone of BW units should be enough to know BW units > ScII units

Also, I'd love to see a custom map of BW vs ScII

Perhaps we should persuade Maverck to set something like this up. Maybe a simple unit tester map except one side is all of the SC2 units and structures and the opposite are all the SC2BW units.

It wouldn't account for AI movement, especially in narrow passages and the lot, but a field test would still be fun xD
