Starcraft 2

My army wouldn't even be half as hurt as yours, I was talking about me defending and you trying to rush me. Your rush army is obliterated while my defense troops would still have to be up. Some repairs and rebuild here and there and my base is ready for another wave.

As for balance, the races are amazingly balanced until that lame Protoss player gets an SCV or drone with a dark Archon and startes to make his own Terran/Zerg base. I HATED when they did that.

If I were truly rushing, you wouldn't have half the units up that you said you would by the time I was attacking, so it's actually rather moot . No upgraded goliaths and maybe not even siege mode for the tanks, depending on how much time I spend. By the time you get those, I have ultras I'm ready to get in and have a significant army at my disposal.

In either case, I would have done significant damage and had another army at my disposal, they wouldn't have been waves on a rock unless I was stupid and tried to do it with all zerglings or something dumb like that.

With the whole 3 army thing, if they could get the game going long enough to get 3 full-sized army's, then the other players really have failed. It should be really rare to snag those units and have the time to build with them, especially since the zerg creep tends to make everything else difficult when multi-racing units.

The Dark Archon's mind control ability was the biggest redeeming feature for the protoss side. Mind controlling a drone/SCV to build your own 2ndary race army is just awesome. The problem I had with Protoss was they were slow build and expensive units (awesome dmg with Reavers but each bomb cost$). The slow build is what gets ya cuz you can easily get overwhelmed with a larger force that took less time to build.
FOR THE SWARM!
And it looks like Zerg's blitz attacks will even be sweeter with that Dune worm thingy transporting units.

The Nydus worm always existed as the Zerg teleporter. It just has a really neat graphic when you spawn it now instead of just appearing in a burst of blood. Play campaign much? Hard to miss those.
