Zerg are goat, but nothing compares to the necrons of dawn of war.

it's too much fun to play with and even more fun with pylon spams in UA

>tyranid rip off

The best RTS faction is NOD and that is a fact, if you disagree you are probably fat and a kissless virgin
>>
>>340011937
Terrans best race
You can't prove me wrong

I like Protoss
NOD is faction of the year all years though. Yuri gets an honorable mention

Imo the Zerg in broodwar I like better than the tyranid. They felt more terrifying,, but they fuck that all up with sc2.

Is there an RTS where the lowest unit in the tech tree is still as useful as the higest?

play terran in starcraft 2 and go mass marines until gold league
>>
>>340018567
Not in RA Alert 2, you dont
>>
>>340018510
>lowest unit in the tech tree
so basicly every single RTS that uses workers?
if we ignore workers, marines are ALWAYS useful in starcraft atleast.
and like >>340018642 said
you gotta use those tier 1 units well or you gonna lose the late game.
>>
>>340013476
Cybran and UD sucked but I love 'em.
>>
>>340011937
Zergs are pretty good.
Except when the mineral patch is located in the north.

>>340019314
What is sucky about Cybran?

Their low hp and focus on stealth?

I guess if the enemy has omnisensors that's a shitton of units that are rendered useless

As for undead, it depends a lot of the game you are using them in, Hoae and warlords battlecry could have some stupid op undead
>>
Is it too soon?

>>340015225
Tyranids have really ugly design. Zerg look much better.

Well, you can't play as Bene Gesserit...

SC1 or SC2?

SC1 Terran was OP and actually fun

SC2 Terran is shit

Thanks David Kim for continuously nerfing Terran into the ground

I mean hey, let's nerf the only unit the counters Zerg's mass corruptors. And then let's "buff" the Cyclone by reducing it's gas cost a little but raising it's supply cost to the same as a fucking Tempest.

I miss SC1 where Terran ripped through hordes of enemies with firebats, medics and marines, mech was not only viable but was badass, and Battlecruisers were a unit that could actually kill things. It's hilarious watching a Battlecruiser try and fight an 8 armor Ultralisk and do 1 damage per shot. The most technologicaly advanced hardware the Terran's have simply tickles a biological unit with concentrated laser blasts

ooooooh shit. I go waaaaay back with dune. Probably more nostalgic then starcraft.

>>340015225
This I always felt the zerg had better design, but they mess them up in SC2
>>
>>340019756
cybran's uac, bread and butter t1/3 assault bots, special units like t1 gunship/stealth systems/mobile bomb, and shield generators aren't very good

all they have is a good t2 tank (t2 is useless) and rushing monkeylord

Zerg require a ton of micro to effectively surround, etc.
