Women love to call themselves the "Queen Bitch" (*cough*Lil Kim*cough*). Therefore, I see no reason to find something offensive if the people who are supposed to be offended would actually be flattered by such a statement.

Downloading it now... Can't wait to see more matches later.
will there be!? I just want any game (not BR) in HD to download. I want to put it in fullscreen and see how it looks in details and in movement.Quote:

I said I'm not an expert, so don't take my word for it. I remember reading at the event center hall #3 is dedicated to SC2. I'm just trying to be optimistic :PQuote:

Stim Pack should probably be balanced by increasing the damage Marauder takes per use.
1 Marine (45 HP) = 4 Stims unupgraded, 5 Stims with Combat Shield (55 HP), 10 HP per use.
1 Marauder (120 HP) = 12 Stims per Marauder, if indeed 10 HP per use.
Perhaps either 20 HP per use (6 Stims) or 30 HP per use (4 Stims).

That could work... But it almost seems how the Marauder is built stims don't make sense, seems too much like a mechanical unit. I mean, stim packs for a Marine are logical, seems like Marauder could go either way.Quote:

Like Banshee Cloak is different from Ghost Cloak?

Stim is fine on marauders, and it was used well in that game. Proper counter to marauders is zealots or air, which that P player didn't use at all. Even a Colossus might have helped.
I just get it that he didnt upgrade Hardened shield at all, those in the end Flashy Things on Immortals were Shield Recharging Ability from Obelisk! Take a closer look!Quote:

Same video with a really funny commentary:

That guy pisses me off. Unfunny commentator is unfunny. He needs to get a clue.
No it wasnt, just look at full screen high Quality.Quote:

I actually got a few chuckles out of that commentary. The whole "microing to absorb the most damage possible while dealing none" was pretty funny to me. Also, the "his entire army...which consists of about 3 units. I wonder if he realizes he built gateways" made me laugh.
To each his own.
Well, i said the Marauder was too powerfull for cost right when they introduced the unit... The attack is too heavy if it's going to have that fast cooldown. If it's meant as a support unit, i don't see why it needs 14 base attack + 6 vs Armored. That demolishes most things by itself.
Well it's a counter to Armored units, and they tend to have a lot of HP.
Well if they have 10+10 then they are counter to armored units, but with 14+6 they 3-shot zerglings, Marines and 2/3 Workers... And they have stim pack.Quote:

I'll have to see more than just 1 low quality game before I think Marauders are imba or not.
Right now, I love the Marauder's concept, but that unit is fugly as hell.
Wish it could look less bulky and stuff.
Seriously, there was absolutely no problem with differentiating the firebat from the marine in SC1, pretty sure it's not that hard to make the marauder easily differentiable without making him wider than he is tall.
He's the only unit that is completely unproportional. Honestly, no other unit in the game is as unproportional and ugly as him (cept the lurker who's just plain ugly).
It the matter of opinion. From all Terran army I like Marauder the most, by his look and his purpose! I just like bulky units. And I like Lurker too. Actually there is no units that I hate from that point of view, except, maybe, Brood Lord...
Thank you for this awesome post. I thought I was the only one thinking this. This is what happens when you let Samwise to much freedom, he start making crappy disproportional units like this one. The movement animation is also horrible. Even units in WC3 moved more fluently than him. The worst is that I don't think the model will change since I remember Rob Pardo saying that the marauder is his favorite unit.Quote:

Oh, wait, the wiki also says that they lost the Stimpack capability. Either they added it again, or the build was very old.
Man, that Immortals look slowed to me! Wasn't that supposed to work on Bio units only??
It can't attack air units.Quote:

I know, i was talking about damage output. Sorry for the confusion.Quote:

The stim pack seems OP because he dropped the Marauders behind two defenseless mineral lines, which is the Protoss player's fault (not to mention the lack of effective counters); however, the Marauder might seem a little underpowered if you saw it trying to catch up to marines to engage in battle in the middle of the map, considering they travel at a very, very slow speed without the stim upgrade.
I guess I can see how people might have a problem with the excess of bulky, Terran units, but that's the beauty of the Terran.Quote:

They're humans, therefore technologically inferior to the advanced Protoss, which control the sleek, shiny units; and obsessed with hastily built, powerful machines, which is exactly what the Marauders look like. But that's just my opinion. I actually would prefer a less bulky BC, but the Marauders look fine IMO.
They'd run out of shields by then most likely.Quote:

I think they specifically don't want to do that. If there's a problem, they can just make the Marauder himself slower or make Stim percentage-based.Quote:

I dunno, I kinda love the Marauder's (which doesn't look remotely "WC3-ish" or cartoony...) and Viking's designs.
