Upgrades
- Nitro Pack : The only upgrade available to the reaper from the tech lab,the nitro pack gives a significant speed increase to the reaper.Great upgrade for kiting and escaping oponents,especially deadly to protoss zealots without the charge abilty .
Using Reapers Against The Zerg
Reapers are not a very good ideea against the Zerg.The thing with the zerg is that ,while they are great at killing their workers,zerglings can kill reapers pretty fast especially on creep.The only option against the zerg is to go with a slightly higher number of reapers for your rush and have a pretty good micro ability .
Using Reapers Against The Protoss
Reaper rushes are the nightmare of every protoss player .The only defense against a reaper rush for a protoss is the use of Stalkers,when a stalker is on the field,your rush is over.But untill your enemy gets his first stalker,you basically have free reign over his mineral line,kill as many probes as posibble in that time. If he has zealots in the base you can kite them quite easily while you kill their probes.
When squaring off against other Terran players the role of your Reapers are very simillar as with the Protoss,altough a little bit harder to kite marines,you can kill a good amount of SCV's with good micro.When you see that he has a marauder ready,fall back.
