If you played the SC1/SC2 Conversion mod, units like medics, dragoons, vultures utterly dominate everything. However, Starcraft 2 macro mechanics > Starcraft 1 macro mechanics. Sure Starcraft 1 units are stronger, but starcraft 2 will have more units in the same amount of time. | ||

It's like a ridiculously powerful version of FG, except you have to wait 'til tier 3. i meant like i didn't know there was actually a limit on it because i'm so used to just seeing everything be at 1 health  | ||

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. It's not quite that clear cut - SC2 tanks shoot more quickly than BW tanks, I think they actually have higher dps in the end, especially considering they do the same damage to "light" (35). SC2 Battlecruisers have 3 base armour too. I think BW units would win though, 'cause the SC2 units would all clump up like they do and get murdered by the BW splash. | ||

Surprisingly, I think immortals would help a ton, as they're pretty proof against all of Protoss's heavy hitters from BW save the Carrier. | ||

Skill in the game and skill to make up for the short falls and pathing issues that were in the game? That makes no sense. That comparison bluntly is retarded, if you compared any game in it's current state to it's previous or older one you would always choose the older one cause it's harder. At this point, it's like asking what is a better fruit, wine or potatoes. edit, let me spell it out for the people saying "HERP DERP BW WILL ALWAYS BE BETTER" and the other kids saying "NUUU SC2 IS BETTER YOU OLD GEEZER" Everyone loves potatoes, you can say it two different ways. Find me someone who hates potatoes and i'll find you a liar. Wine gets better with age. Guess which one is the wine and which one the potatoes. | ||
