Most missed sc1 and most liked sc2 units

[Jabber Wookie]

Simple enough. I would make a poll but I kinda want to ask two questions that have too many possible answers:

What SC1 multiplayer unit do you miss the most?

And... what SC2 multiplayer unit do you like the most? (Can be a unit that existed in SC1 considering most experienced some sort of change between the two games)

So I almost found myself reinstalling SCBW just to do some reaver drops the other day cuz I totally forgot about that unit. I was watching a Tastosis video and they mentioned reaver drops and made me remember how much fun they were to use. So for me, I would say I miss reavers the most. I don't like this in excess in an RTS but I actually enjoyed the "luck" factor these units provided as it made their use so much more suspenseful (Very similar to helions in that sometimes they kill 8 gatherers at once, or just damage 12 and kill none; however, helions are less "luck" based as good players know where to set them up before attacking to optimize damage).

As for new units, I would definitely say the reaper is my favorite new unit to use. I like its mobility and overall feel when using them. Obviously, they have become primarily scouting units at this point in time but I can see them making a return in some future build order as a more worthwhile unit. Setting one or two up behind a mineral line early game and watching gatherers try to surround them while you hover back and forth or up and down cliffs is awesome.

So what about you guys? What SC1 units make you want to reinstall the game just to remember how much fun they were to use? And what SC2 units make you feel like you're playing more than SCBW 3D?

Hated reavers / defilers,

The only unit I miss is goliath, but thor is much more awesome. Oh, and lurkers.

I miss the Corsair

Best new unit has got to be the Sentry. Is there anything that unit can't do?

Yeah the sentry is a pretty versatile, awesome addition to toss. I actually have played them the least as I struggle with the chrono boost macro mechanic so I haven't even ventured to using them that much. The few times I played toss I stuck with zealots and stalkers in beta cuz it was common enough after building dragoon/lot armies in SC1.

Oh, and lurkers.

Yeah, I still think they're guna bring them back in HoTS despite saying they wouldn't hold back any units with intentions to release them in an expansion.

I miss the Medics and Valkyrie and you know why! Hahahaha

[Peanutbutter]

I didn't play much SC1, but i really liked the reaver. I feel like protoss have a hard time harassing in SC2, compared to the other races.

The units i most like though, are hands down immortals and sentries. Oh, and colossus

[Artanis]

Agreed. My most favourite SC2 unit is Raven.

[Arcopix]

I definitely miss the lurkers ...



Medics were quite classy and were not healing from the skies.

SC2 unit I like most - infestor & sentry - pretty good replacement of the defiler and one of the most versatile units in protoss arsenal.

I like all starcraft 2 new units except reapers. (I've never used them good, they were nice in the beginning until everyone knew how to counter them (fast queen, fast stalker etc)
