Thors are really bad, but they look so cool. The only use of a Thor I've seen so far is put it in medivac send it in their base if they got no turrets and shoot. Load up fly away and fly back. Repeat.

Quite effective.

In my match while you guys had yours.. I managed to lose my base but rebuild on gold minerals and build up a few banshees and Valkyries(Think that's what they're called? Lazy to check) and sent them in and managed to destroy a base. Sadly the other guy had defense so I couldn't bother, but he ended up ragequitting lol

Again another 1vs1 I ended up building a few banshees sent them in cloaked to kill the turrets and kill his workers. Flew out then back in repeated til he had no units. He had like 10 thors(I lol'd) and a detector. Funny thing is maxed attack on air units = nice. Needless to say 5 banshees killed 4 or 5 of his thors. He sent the rest to my base and I had 4 bunkers and a few tanks set up. Nothing of mine died.. all his thors did.

He never built a second base.. I was working on a 3rd and 4th when I was attacking him for more vespene gas lol.

Thors are terrabad.

Thors are actually pretty good tbh.
Their special skill work very well vs collosus, other thors, brutalisks.
And they have a good anti air.
You just need to mix them up with other units, like some MMM, or maybe even just MM without the marines.

lol ravens are one of the best units..

MMM ball? Who gives a shit, we got ravens.

Hydra mass? Ravens.

Ling mass? Ravens.

anything mass? Raveeeens.

That missile is so funny, and it's hard to notice in big fights.

Ultralisks on the other hand..they just suck.

I saw on a YouTube video that you can actually launch a Nuke from the Ghost Academy itself,how can I do that? :) Atm I have to get a Ghost,research Arm Silo & Stealth,bring my Ghost to ennemy base and call for the Nuke hoping I won't get detected.

Wow, how many games do you tech up so much?
I'm a zerg player, and i barely get to the hive tech. (Unless i have the spare minerals and gas to upgrade to broodlord). But most of the time I end the game with roaches/hydras/zerglings/mutas(whatever is most usefull in that situation). Terran and prottos never get the chance to tech up to carriers/mothership or battlecruisers.

But i guess, as a zerg player, i need to end the game that fast. Cant afford protoss or terran to tech up and macro alot.

Zerg has always been bad at the end of the match. They need to rush and finish or damage their workers and that's pretty much it from what I see. Tanks rape the ground units and vikings rape the air and for protoss against zerg I dunno.

Apparently division means nothing. They just group players by 100's (roughly) so division 3 is no better than division 4000 =\

Only copper/bronze/silver/gold/plat matters
