[@legobil_]

I wonder how many marines Clem or Byun would have lost if they controlled the 1000 marines.

[@LegionL-A]

I mean, let's remember this has no micro and that any attempt to micro the tanks would end up in negative micro. Anyone with at least plat level micro should be able to take out those tanks with probably less than 200 marines with decent pre-splits and a bit of stutter-stepping. The cost would go way down.

[@KhanjoOfEthiopia]

@ar218 i agree except for the specific league, I have 100% seen even diamond players a-move into a tank line and then decide now is the perfect time to look at their base and build a few more buildings

[@hefat5955]

"By the numbers Boys!"

[@pencilnote3923]

I think it doesn't matter if the tanks won that or not. The cost and supply difference between the two is staggeringly wide that it shows how cost efficient tanks are against clumped up infantry.

[@michaelsutherland5848]

Any player with half a brain would have stimmed and run up next to them. I doubt Red would have lost 200 in that scenario.

[@bayanzabihiyan7465]

When it’s 0/0 marines with no stim combat sure. You can show the same story with fully upgraded hellbats against 0/0 zerglings. Or 0/0/0 carriers against 3/3 thors. Upgrades are highly impactful for low damage high attack rate units.

[@bobvandeurzen869]

Killing more than 900 marines with 20 tanks is indeed a big win. Even if the tanks 'lost' this one.

[@Hellafast2uDude]

@@bobvandeurzen869 u blind? if marines came close to the tanks, they would have been destroyed in 10 seconds, losing at best 200. And with steampacks and grades tanks wouldn’t have fired 4 shots

[@albincarle5783]

The marine is such a microable unit though. I known it's not the point of these shorts but if the marines stimed at the first tank fire and didn't start attacking until they touched the tanks. Well the short would have been a hell of a lot shorter

[@Alan-go2gm]

Studder walked n thos tanks would have been toast instantly

[@ninjabreadman22]

You'd be surprised with proper splits and movement... I think it was Byun that I saw demolish an opposing pro terran with pure marines vs. tanks and a few other things.

[@neojack333]

i don't know if your commentary is ironical, but the video shows the reverse : if you want to beat 60 supply of siege tanks with a suicide assault of marines, you need 1000 supply of marines

[@Santisima_Trinidad]

​@@neojack333 *if you want to beat 3/3, siege tanks with 0/0 no stom marines and refuse to micro, you need 1000 supply of marines.

[@nhatho1723]

Someone teach these marines to stutter step.

[@cathulionetharn5139]

I think if the tanks weren't in line it would go better for them since the marines would spread less and there would be more splash damage

[@ObsidianShade]

Or if the ai just made the tanks attack a row or two back into the crowd--- would have turned this around completely... But this way we get a longer confetti party...

[@lagg1e]

@@ObsidianShade If tanks were more intelligent, their damage would be decreased to keep the balance, They have their current damage values to make their current targeting AI work.

[@Durandurandal]

All I've learned from this is to stim up ramps more voluminously

[@zealot1210]

All the tanks needed was more vision to change the outcome, do it again but with a scan for blue

[@thecakeisalie6601]

Marines left standing: GGEZ

[@sulla1537]

If the marines sprinted and clustered around the tanks it would’ve been over much quicker and fewer casualties. The developers should’ve programmed tanks with machine guns for closer range and negated the friendly fire in siege mode but I guess that’d make them overpowered to a certain extent.

[@danielzanotelli5800]

as winter always says: "More shit counter less shit"

[@mute6243]

"Its not about how many marines you have but how many marine u have to replace them with."

[@mickcraftgaming]

Watching these videos has really made me realize how inefficient the siege tank AI is. The tanks always target the CLOSEST enemy, rather than targeting with the goal of causing the most damage. If these tanks were landing their shots on the second marine back, they'd be wrecking significantly more havoc than they already are. Would that be OP? Maybe. But just an interesting thought and something perhaps one of those enhanced AI could factor into their micro.

[@Blitzkit]

When work harder, not smarter was the only choice.

[@m5a1stuart83]

I always use marines in bunkers and siege tanks at the back in case some zerg unit try to put it out. marines gives protections while siege tanks give firepower for defenses.

as the russians would say "acceptable losses"

[@mattb6646]

Well considering 20 tanks is possible in a match and 1k marines isnt... even though the marines needed about all of those 1k to win 😂

[@x8axe8x]

You should make videos like this, put with coop commander units like Tya used to do. I would watch EVERY single one of em

[@handsome410115]

this must be Death Korps of Krieg for the emperor

[@Templarfreak]

this really shows just how important stepping forward and ensuring as many units as possible are in range. this fight would have been over significantly faster and at much less of loss of Marines. if you are going to commit to this attack, *do this.*

[@QuảngTrần-f8y]

By the number, boys !!!

[@NinjaSushi2]

"For the Emperor!" - Kreig army.

[@Ccarnage8]

If you force move the Marines closer they can all shoot. They would win harder. If the tanks didn't focus on the front line the splash damage would be greater. Hitting the front line only splashes one half the direction of the battle line

[@Yeest540]

I think the results may have been different if the tanks were in a ball rather than a line.

[@LovusEternius]

Now that's what I call cost efficiency.

[@Jeed92]

"who wins? 1000 marines..." MARINES

[@xtrplpqtl]

Shoulda made the marines walk into melee range, instead of standing at max getting chunked by the AoE. Then the tanks wouldn't have been able to fire, or get killed by friendly fire from the tanks farther up the line.

[@MateoKim-kk6id]

Korea has a lot of excellent self-propelled guns like the K9 because there are so many marines on the continent.

[@christafarion9]

[@spookyghostwriter3110]

The marines were transported away from the sector, away from this war they were fighting. Unfortunately for the marines, they found themselves in the far future of the 41st millennium.

[@kwanchan6745]

this is the stupidity of the SC2 AI...the front line of marines holds steady once in range, blocking off the ones behind if they closed the range to the siege tanks, a) they won't get hammered as sieged tanks have a min range b) the marines behind could also be inflicting damage on the tanks compare this with how zerglings fight...upfront and personal...I wonder how many zerlings would survive in a similar scenario...

[@Secretsofsociety]

Pretty much proves you aren't getting up the ramp with that poorly timed rush when siege tanks are out.
