Yeah Automaton2000 was obviously a program, or how do you move 99 Zergling away from one in a millisec as a human :) .
True. Of course some people can move multiple units separately non-stop, but it really takes skills. The best example I found was with only like 3 units:



And yeah I hate when they go immortals and I got lots of roaches. Roaches are so innefective against them. X.x

the list doesn't have Queen OP. 

Looking at the medivac tank video, it also reminds of this:

Maybe if you send a huge marine ball (with stim) into a collosi ball then attack :P

If you watch my banes vs marines video, one could claim marines counter banelings too. ;D

I think with equal resources huge ball of colossi ball would win xD Unless marines were microed and minimized the damage done to them. I guess that just comes down to: If terran player can micro the marines or not. If they can micro, it's OP against every unit possible xD

Yeah I mean if tthe marines are micro'ed very well and the collosi poorly. However a lot of marines would be lost for sure. Kinda like how when someone doesn't micro his marines vs banelings, he loses them all, while if micro'ed well, it's possible to lose only 2-3 marines vs banes

Everything is OP in SCII when used correctly pretty much.

Marines + SCVs  early game = deathball from the sky

MMM wins me the majority of my ladder games (Then again, I'm only bronze :p), I do make modifications though, such as vikings to fight off Giraffes (Anyone watch Lagtv?).

I myself used to use Colosi against MMM all the time, but as I get better, I am starting to favor HT and Archon a lot more in my PvT and PvZ matchups.  If I go colossi, the terran can easily build vikings and he's good, but if I go HT and Archon, he has to get ghost which require a lot more micro. 

But yeah, in bronze, macro wins every game :]

I had a lot of troubles vs marine tanks personally. In Bronze I did pretty well vs terran (who mostly used marine tank or marine marauder and eventually medievacs, along with zerg unless i waited too late in the game, but I sucked vs protoss 4 gate. In silver my main issue was Terran's 111 build because sometimes you expected early banshee cheese, only to be greeted with an early marine push or helions. In gold my main issue was marine tank and micro'ing against protoss immortals+zealots+stalkers

I'm a high master zerg. and for me, currently against terran, I have a problem against their mech play, with turrets everywhere in their 3 bases to block any drop harassments/muta harassments. Their early mech 3/3 with thors/tanks/hellions are so scary x.x
against marine tank, in current metagame zerg needs to use infestors and very little banelings, and transition fast into broodlords and infestors composition with some ultra and zerglings, and prevent terran from getting their 4th up.

Against protoss, I have no problem early on, but it's when the game gets late game and it becomes blords+infestors vs mothership+archon+ht fight, the only thing that decides who wins is if protoss clicked vortex and did archon toilet well or not. Mothership's vortex mechanics is wayyy too broken, but the problem is, protoss has no other way to win otherwise.

Yeah I hate when they fill their base with turrets. It's annoying if I want to switch to muta to harrass a bit. As for infestors I got a bit better a while ago to use them but I'm still not very comfortable because you really have to be very careful to not lose them.

Also wasn't the archon toilet nerfed? ??? I think the baneling toilet was, too (you could kill 255 marines with two banelings IIRC)

It was nerfed to a certain extent, but the slow units will still die very fast, such as broodlords, and battlecruisers. The units that actually benefited from that "nerf" were roaches, giving them enough time to get into position after coming out of vortex because they're fast enough
