    Why the hell would they have roach against Terran bio? I get so many easy wins because low level players just play standard instead of adapting to the right unit composition to beat me. And if they do get the right units, its always too late. You have to scout well to determine what unit composition before hand.

    Roaches own marines, especially with burrow, the zerglings are there to absorb marauder damage while roaches do I think its aprox 24 damage a hit or something ridic before armor...

    Not really. Roaches do a lot, but marines do a lot of DPS. Not to mention, marines are a lot more cost efficient. You can get a lot of marines quickly and cheaply, but roaches, not so much. As a terran, you can do well trading your mineral intensive units, especially marines, for zerg gas heavy units.

    a roach can take out 3-4 marines if microed backwards, more with burrow, more with armor upgrades, so thats aprox 150 minerals for 75 mins 25 gas, i dunno i guess its preference. the food cost of roaches is high, but you need to max out your supply as zerg pretty fast anyways.

    Fully upgraded marines can do a lot. You'd be surprised. Oh, and 4 marines would be 200 minerals.

    Lol, I know. The only time I have problems with terran is when I fast expand as zerg and they go like 3 racks, that can be tough...

    I don't know but I would imagine that with enough skill it's possible to hack pretty much anything.

    No prob, no prob. My family does stuff like this to each other :p I once convinced my brothers friend on his AIM that I was coming out to him over like an hour when I was bored. Lost track of time, he walked in, before he could even say anything I ran out the door :p Good times!
