Marine.king-

Merc marines-

+30% spell resist, +10% per ability level.

Reasoning: Merc marines make up a large part of marinking's DPS, and it's very easy for any hero with an aoe ability to kill them instantly. Early game especially, this drains marine king's energy and makes him very tough to use

i have only tested it on queen, but i believe its the same thing with marine king and unix marines. basically that 60% damage resistance that towers have, it doesnt affect the ultralisk from the queen. it might not even work with marine king marines or unix marines. other then that marine king is op. so easy to kill if u take out his army first.

I've actually experimented with a Star Fury MK build that takes advantage of pseudo-tanking based on reducing the enemy's damage with Q repeatedly and taking advantage of the SF procs. It lets you do surprising amounts of damage even after the marines bit the dust.

 

Most everyone else I've seen builds primarily STR with CoA and FoE, but then again I don't see too many MKs so my build might actually be the standard.

I have yet to see a marine.king out push me when I am unix. Queen with new baneling buff has pulled it off, and I hvae battled to a standstill against good mules, but never have I been unable to beat down a king.

 

And as for this "push two lanes" thing...if marine king is build tough enough to fight without his army, then his army will be weak. If his army is baller, king is weak. Therefore, kill whichever group is weaker...two lanes don't fall at once.

 

King can threaten multiple areas better, and may well support his team better, but in a solo lane contest, unix will win.

I somewhat agree with queen, but not bio. Queen would be better if the tower didnt randomly start attacking Timmay. MK can melt creep waves and towers with rines and firebats insanely fast. I think the top pushers are:

1. MK

2. Queen

3. Unix/Garamond

4. Bio

 

Bio isn't a very good pusher IMO. He just has some AoE.

I have to agree. But add Alpha Crackling on that list. He is a very good pusher and tower pusher. He is superior at Backdooring than any hero tho. If you don't believe me, I'll state why.

#1 He can have up to 11 Lings which will deal 165% Additional Weapon damage every second or so.

#Vicious Bite effects tower, meaning that he is the only hero who can actually LEECH off a tower, not to mention all his lings will do that 30% his weap damage. I was successfully able to solo every single tower without creep, in test mode, with the super high dps items (Like 2 masamunes, a pyre, time splitter, and one other DPS item). Of course, with the slight nerf to vicious bite, it isn't as strong, but it still is a very capable backdoorer. 500 AA ling means he will heal 1000 HP, and deal about a bonus 4.3 extra hits on it (counted lings). Yeah... Cracking owns towers... Late game that is.

Yep but his minions have very decent damage each, so you can spawn them into the tower, and specially in late game, they will survive 2-3 shots and melting down that tower.

Anyway compared with unix, mk or queen... it's not the same imo.
