Counters? (202 reads, 3 replies)
Hello I'm new at starcraft and have been trying to get better. Right now I'm having trouble because I don't know which units counter other units and i dont know which units are worth making.I play zerg and need help.

zergling - basic unit u will need em in every mu good at harasing and also life shield for more important units like lurkers in tvz, especialy in zvp they get stronger when zealots if u have all upgrades
hydralisk- good vs air also good for hit and run tactic if u are skiled
lurker - great unit in both ofence and defence use em in both tvz and pvz but they are quit useless in zvz matches, lethal lurker+swarm vs terran
mutalisk-mobile fast great at harasing but requires good micro skill, beware of science vesers,high templars,archons....this unit is very often seen in zvz mu
queen- enslare ability might be usefull in big battles especialy
defiler- this unit is rly great vs terran and vs any range unit plague ability is very good vs protoss i think..
ultralisk- is mainly used as a shield for other units as he can take lots of damage works fine with zerling with this combo u can fight any terran or protoss army
guardian- long range good at harasing expansions but in my opinion its too expensive since u can iradiate em or storm em but they can be used vs any ground unit quite decent , weak vs any air
devouler- mainly used vs corsairs, batlecrusiers or cariers adding damage and slowing speed with lots of hp and good armor
scrouge-110 dmg is great but low hp used vs zvz agaits mutas good vs cariers and any air ...extremy weak vs mass anti air splash units like vs 12 corsairs
i hope i didnt forget any

read this. units don't counter each other. in starcraft we use unit mixes and combinations. you will have to watch replays to get the basics, and from there on you can start working on thinking. But first, watch replays. That will get you the general idea of basic playing. Now read the thread. Read it all.

hm i think plague is in zvz and zvt much more useful than in zvp due to the fact that it reduces hitpoints but not shields.
