The Dark Templar. An invisible cloaked (as in wears a cloak, not 'invisible' cloaked) assassin with psionic blades? Yes, please.

If we're talking about original StarCraft, and not just appearance, mine would have to be the Terran Marine. You can just build thousands (not really) of them, and it's so much fun to see your enemy be killed by waves and waves of them. :)

Hah, marines owned in teams of 8+. Give me 8 marines with stim packs and I'll take those sunken colonies down for you.

I just love the zeglings<3

Flooding the enemies bases with those little jumpy things, and then see them tremble in despair as their base is ripped to peaces by about 300zerglings:cool:

Indeed. Watch the enemy attempt to destroy a defensive matrixed tank with all his forces, only to miserably fail while his base is being pummeled at. It finally dies, at which point he's more than satisfied (And yells victory!). Problem is, it's way too late.

Great stuff. :)

There is nothing like 4 zergling 3 hydra combo move... both dmg, attack speed, and brutal evasion (with the burrow) Perfect for quick, yet devistating ambush, City disruption or, just plain old rush =]

And when your enemy tries to bring out all those Carriers he's been saving up to attack your base, you use your Ghosts' Lockdown and destroy them with Wraiths. Even more fun :)

P.S. Anyone want to play me on battle.net? PM if you're interested :D

Ghosts are probably my favorite, although I always sucked at starcraft online, war3 is more my game.

I always found tanks with a nice Arbiter guarding them to be super fun. Nothing short of an unforseen nuke will get through that, with some other casters and support!

I'd have to say the Ultralisk. It looks funny having some mammoth thing with a spear run at a big army with rifles...:)

Dark Archons!

Mind Controlling a whole fleet of carriers is probably the most provoking thing I've done.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
