Favorite Starcraft units

[JimBob]

When playing Battle net you can see the strategy each players uses and it usually consists of their favorite units. So what are your favorite units and what is their role in your strategy? When using Terrans I usually like to go defense while my brother go offense. In that case I use tanks and marines. I also use Ghost to fire nukes. Those are my favorite units for the Terrans. As for the Protoss, I love going air. Carriers are the best. And I love massing Hydralisk for the Zerg because they can attack air and ground. Plus they look cool.

Zergling NP

Most cost effective unit ever. Fast, massive damage, combined with Dark Swarm = instant death to any ground force. Against air, I love Valkyries. 6 rocket barrage looks so cool! I wish they didn't kill the units so fast just so I could see the rockets fly

Favorite Terran units: Battlecruiser and Marine

When I play Terran I go for early Marines while I build up my bc's. I'm offensive with Terran because of the awesomeness that is 24-36 bc's.


Favorite Protoss units: Zealot and Scout

I play defensively with Protoss. I'm pretty good at mapping out how to make an effective defense with photon cannons. So when playing with friends I do their defense as well as mine. I make zealots to fend off initial attacks by lower rank ground units (zerglings/marines) while the defenses are getting set up.

After the defenses are set and all I have to do is maintain them, I focus on making at least 2-3 groups of scouts.

Favorite Zerg units: Hydralisk

I don't play Zerg very often, but, when I do I've noticed that Hydras are the most cost effective and useful things that the Zerg offers.

Zerglings die way too easily and can't be used against air targets, but Hydralisks can do a substantial amount of damage, target both air and ground, and are relatively inexpensive compared to the rest of the Zerg units.

Watch some Korean replays, and you'll notice something with Zerg very quickly. Hydralisks only remain Hydralisks for a few seconds until they hit the MORPH button. Hydras are worthless compared to Zerglings.

Well, thankfully I don't play much on b.net anymore or play Zerg very often

What? Have you ever played RTS, melee games? players choose what is most powerful and harder to defeat and usually what works best vs all races or one race, same was war3. Not to say a counter of a counter of a counter makes the need to use several types, not what we like the most ...

If your opponent sucks, you'll use your favorite unit to destroy him.

 

[Ham Ham]

Terran: Marines, Goliaths
Zerg: Hydralisk, Ultralisk
Protoss: Carrier

 

[Gilles]

Terran: Firebat or Goliath
Zerg: Zerglings or Defilers
Protoss: Dark Templar or Zealot

 

[Ricardo Irving]

Terran: Goliaths is wonderful against Mutalisks, and general aircraft. Siege Tanks bring lots of fun to Twisted Fate (is that it?) against the Zerg. Firebats are good in numbers against Hydralisks [only with a medic] and Zerglings. MORE COMING SOON

 

[LordDz]

I thought Firebats only were good against Zerglings and Zealots? Like it was one of the most underused units in the game.

 

[Dreadnought[dA]]

Firebats suck against even Zealots. They are mediocre against Zerglings. Lurkers usually eat them up so... Really they are the most worthless unit in the game. The 25 gas is much better spent/saved for Science Vessels with irradiate.
