My best strat for beating SC's is just right off the bat drop your IP, 2 closest res nodes, an armory, and an obs. Then get motion tracking right away.
You'd be so surprised how well a team does if they get motion tracking at the first possible moment in the game. It gives you a huge advantage and speeds up your marines travel because they dont have to sneak around so often.

I still think MT is the best idea right off the bat. If your marines know theres nothing up ahead, then they dont have to bother be sneaky through hallways, then can run down em full speed, bhop, play with the flashlight, taunt, and no aliens gonna know anything.
Personally though, I almost find it's a better defense againt MC's. When they get silence or go celery skulk, you need to know where they are at all times.

Wanna know how to counter cloaking?
PROPERLY set the gamme according to hte NS manual
THEN, watch for MOVEMENT- yes, running skulks are easily visible, walkers are hard to spot but NOT impossible if you LOOK- look for a slightly moving spot of discolouration!
If u manage it right 2 obs can perma scan thats 30 res for a perfect counter to sc and a good com can do it. Armor 1 counters sc. Really sc sucks i hate the chamber as much as ever.
p.s. I am about 99% sure he was kidding when he made this thread and u guys over react WAY to much.

I agree though sc sucks. It's hardly even used anymore. With the new upgrades everyone thought it was the bee's knees. Now that marines know how to deal with it, aliens just say "Screw it, drop MC's instead"

Church I compete in CAL in d.dozen^ | I've played my fair share of skrims and matches, and I have noticed lately that teams are mostly going towards getting MC's first.
You really need to stop acting like such a high and mighty **** on these boards. Everything I've seen from you on this forum you just act like your better then everyone else, and well, almost all the time you end up sounding like an idiot. You may want to relook the way you post sometime soon, cause you really aint sending out a good vibe.

Step 1) Stack Marines hardcore.
Step 3) There is no Step 3 :O
Step 2) <span style='color:red'>Time Paradox Exception:</span>Hit any key to continue...
Step 4) Win.
P.S.: This may not work for clan matches, but nobody cares about clanners and if you ignore them long enough they'll just go away.

SC is good if used properly.
BUT
Lately a lot of people havnt been using it, and have been using MC as their prefered choice.
Thats what Im saying.
