In other news, the poll this morn was like 20/7/10, people REALLY hate probes today O.o
Haha yeah I guess that's because, like I said in my first post, they can make multiple buildings at a very short timespan (1-10 seconds) with only 1 probe. Also you just have to take 1 probe with you to cannon rush, while if Terran wants to bunker rush, they have to take multiple SCVs to build multiple bunkers at the same time while trying to not get killed, if they do get killed, they have to be replaced by another SCV. Zerg has to take a lot of Drones if they want to Spine Crawler rush in ZvZ, luckily the Drones are not vulnerable to attack while morphing into a Spine.

Just my 2 cents.

Guys stop mindlessly voting scv and probe. You must watch the white ra vid, then you will be converted to the power of drone. If whitera says they are imba, it must be so.

To be real frank, each Worker has their own pros and cons.

SCV
Pros: Survivability due to Mass Repair any mech friendly, including fellow SCVs. Essential in Mech Armies. If have Orbital Command, should SCVs be destroyed, Free MULES can speed up the work.
Cons: Slowest Acceleration, SCV exposed while building because he needs to be there.

Drone
Pros: Health Regen, Mass Droning for mass economy.
Cons: Sacrifices a drone to mutate into a structure, but in a way, it's hard to stop a drone from rushing an extractor in an enemy base.

Probe
Pros: Fast Acceleration. Needs only a probe to "Summon" or "Warp In" a base FAST! Choice for Proxy Cheesing.
Cons: Only shield regen and can't replenish loss health if damaged.

Quick Comments
 faithHunter:  
All 3 workers have equal acceleration, but nevertheless, nice analysis

head on 1v1, drone wins due to it regenerating.. if you consider real game factors like for scouting, harass, etc, the probe will be the best as it can recharge shields.

I guess it depends on the situation, but I always assumed this argument to be directed at a "A group vs B group" so my answer would be drones, seeing as with proper micro it seems impossible to lose. ( They regen HP ).

However in usefulness in attacks it would be the SCV (I mean attacks with the army, seeing as it can repair), and lastly for harass I would say the probe is the best seeing as it can drop proxy pylons and such while still being mobile.

So really they all are the best, just in different ways, and that's why I love SC2

Probe!

Will always win vs another worker if used correctly, and that ability to end games with cannon rushes. Not to mention that one sneaky probe that hides that one pylon which warps in their whole army nearby.

What worker do you fear the most when you see one of them sneaking around? Probe!

Motherflipping SCVs. They always manage to move into an unattackable position whilst setting up a bunker in my mineral line, finishing it with 5 health or something retarded like that.

Drones are annoying to kill when being harassed while making rax cos of the regen during fights! And then they just up and leave the scv alone and make a gas so I can't kill it
