| Carriers piss me off to no end. I remember a ladder game on temple where I had 4-5 expansions and the toss had 2. The bastard made about 8 carriers and 8 corsairs and went around wiping out all my expansions, losing practically nothing. He then ended up killing me after an hour and a half passed. The thing was, this guy sucked. I should have finished him earlier is what I learned from that. |

| Carrier/Corsair is a dumb strat that works. You absolutely must kill the Toss beforehand or you're just dead. It's like mass scouts vs. Terran in SC. Gotta kill the Toss beforehand or you're dead. Good thing people like carriers in SC. *lockdown rocket sound* :) |

| I dont think u have to kill toss b4 sairs and carriers. If u comstat and see a fleet beacon, the answer is: 12-24 ghosts, 12-24 wraiths (depends on toss fleet size). After this, u have a nonexistent toss fleet =) |

It's not as easy as you make it sound. If the Toss brings 6 observers (smart) then there's no way your wraiths can kill them all before they get slaughtered by the corsairs. Wraiths are designed to take out carriers, but corsairs are designed to take down wraiths. Maybe you can lockdown all the carriers with those ghosts, but then you have nothing to kill them with.
Carrier/Corsair is so stupid because it requires no skill. Like Johnny said above, he lost to a guy not because he was good, but because this unit combo is way overpowered, especially when you throw Dweb into the mix. Dweb is such a stupid, unnecessary spell. I think they put it in there just so Toss players can say "haha, look what we can do." |

| My 2 cents on dweb is Blizz answer to BGH turtle people. Ever use a bunch of carriers take on a TON of cannons? You have to constantly build interceptors. Now throw in some corsairs and you lose less interceptors. In all reality though, besides hydra and in some instances gols, what is dweb really needed for? |

Well uh....I had 16 lings and fended off the first wave of lings and was run over when the second wave of lings was accomonies by a small wave of marines.
Never mind though....this was the night we took the fizzle from the sodas
