goliath = robocop

Ohh yes That robot was so nice.

I must say that I have never been a big fan of the hellion, for it's worker killing caperbilitys and speed. But I must say I do like the battle hellion and how it can work as support unit.

As for on-topic, how effective are Swarm Hosts and Nydus Worms used together?

Very. I can't post them because I can't remember the precise MUs, but HD and Husky each have at least one video on their youtube channels showing a well-fortified base suddenly becoming not so well fortified with worms placement creating mutli-pronged assaults.

I'll need to check his vids.

The question was brought up in a day9 vid I saw yesterday. Guess I'll go look for it.

I don't care about the inefficiency of using a mech design over a tank. Titans are awesomely cool.

Look, only GDI mechs get the pass for me due to having the childhood protection clause.

I'm all for Fatboys, Bolos, Manta gunships, and other such proper vehicles in other fictions.

I don't mind some mechs. But there are just so many. Giant treads can also look awsome.

Shadow, Husky posted this one recently. INVJakeBake vs WhiteRA. JakeBake nydus's swarm hosts into WhiteRa's base, which disappears. But this was not the end, oh no.

Thanks! Was having trouble sifting through them.

Kept coming across Swarm Host/Queen cheese

Yeah that isa common thing so far. The video i put up is a queen/swarm host combo play, but isn't straight cheese. I also give mad props for how white-ra responded.

To be honest that guy could've won that game quite easily. I mean, he let the White-Ra come in his base and destroy the Nydus Network without even sending back his units, he didn't even control the Xel'Naga Towers and the map is pretty big, distance is huge between those bases. That is the point of Nydus, you got the mobility... and those units were mostly Sentries, he could've sent about 5-6 Swarm Hosts, and would've defended his base easily since White-Ra didn't have Observers there and didn't have enough firepower.

But what was really good is how White-Ra destroyed Zerg's army bit by bit after he destroyed Zerg's bases. In those situations, blink Stalkers really shine. ^^
