@@darkdimi7928 mmhmm. micro is what wins fights. If the archons attacked, moved, attacked moved so more than the first row was actually fighting, they win EASILY. Likewise, if the mutalisks spread out over the archons, they also win EASILY. The collosus just need to micro up and down cliffs to win more handedly. In the last fight, if they both micro, terran wins the straight up engagement but zerg wins the war. Its hard for any of the races to defeat an army thats slowly weakening yours with fungals, broodlings, infested terran but if you can just straight up fight them with no retreating to recharge another wave, they're defeatable.

[@larkermouse]

The one that surprised me most was the mutas vs archons. The one that surprised me least was voids vs liberators.

[@taragnor]

I got surprised the most from the liberators, mostly because I had no idea what Liberators even do versus air, I don't recall them ever being used in any pro-games I've seen as an anti-air unit, they're always purely used for their air to ground control. Honestly I never even knew they had splash damage.

[@larkermouse]

@@taragnor yeah, the reason you won't see that come up as much in pro games is probably that pros won't group together and clump up all their air units vs liberators, so it's not used much as a strategy. Pro level army control is usually too good for it to be effective.

[@henryharrison5927]

Mutas v Archons didn't surprise me all that much because the Archons are ground units (meaning only the front 10 or so are ever gonna be engaged) whereas mutas not only have the ability to hit >1 unit at a time, but also can stack, which means that after a bit the back mutas will catch up and the mutas will hit a critical mass such that they can disable 1+ archons with each attack

Fight predictions: 1) Colossi, for sure. They are meant to fight lings. This is going to be beautiful. (3 Left? Wow. Dangerously close.) 2) Banelings? But they win if they die... Alright... (More then I expected. I assumed range to give them more benefit.) 3) Voidrays! They can just charge up and melt! (Holy moly liberaters are decent anti-air???) 4) I think DT's? But It could be anybodys game. (Fair enough.) 5) I HOPE THE MUTAS??? I love the protoss more then the next guy, but that's just *too many mutas*. (Let the rain of the chunks of their brethren feed a thousand terrans.) 6) Um? Ultras have splash. This is going to be a slaughter. (Behold the power of my namesake) 7) Deployed swarmhosts vs deployed siege tanks. The fight of the ages. Seeker missile is going to be mvp though. Vs Queen mvp on zerg side. (So uh.... Swarm hosts never deployed.... I was right about the Queens though.)

When Mutalisks reach a critical mass, they are nearly unstoppable. They have low health and the glaive wurm attack deals light damage, but the fact that it jumps between targets means that once the mutas reach sufficient numbers they just melt anything they concentrate on.

Sometimes, I think certain units do not get enough abilities to make them anything like in the cinematics. For example, the Zealots looked like they have a 50% chance instakill bladeskills while in game they just have charge. And Archons, those things single out an Ultralisk and have chain lightning strikes, ingame the Ultralisk shreds them and they have only a single unit attack. Talk about anti-climatic. On other accounts, the Zerg fights reminded me of Artanis and the Templars fending of 18 billion Zerg ( or is it 1.8 billion ) in Shakuras. Purely epic.

You should try campaign and co-op versions of units, and also co-op mutators. One infamous matchup: 1 100-biomass Abathur Devourer vs. 1 Amon Devourer with Life Leech and full Avenger stacks. This one battle will probably take a while, since both units will heal themselves faster than they can do damage to each other.
