I lost to a person whos rank is very very low. I was Sapiens, they were Krahleans. It was a small map. They completely destroyed me, with a few swarmers and a wyrm. I had a lot of copters taken out. How do I effectively beat krahls? Strategy? All advice is greatly appreciated!

What was the map? More info could be useful.
Spam marines and get them onto favorable terrain. Use them on terrain to knock down swarmers. Try and run a Marauder around to knock the Wyrm down cheaply.
Use a chopper behind your marines to take out swarmers but keep it completly out of Wyrm range.
Choppers as your main unit wont beat Krals or Titans. Too easier to counter with cheaper units.

Also concentrate your marauder power on the wyrm

Try to protect your marauders from swarmers, they can be really painful

I played vs Sharola on the map Snowstorm (Author: TomGear) I felt I did nothing wrong in the beginning, but Sharola was easily able to counter. He/She had two wyrms and a lot of swarmers with me having marines and helis. They were easily picked off. Now it might also have to do with my skill, I'm still learning.

Maybe try countering with alot of Marauders is terrain is more benefecial to Heavy ground. Cycle them in and out with Engineers in back to heal.

When you use marines against swarmers, never advance a single marine to fight swarmer 1 vs 1.
Then swarmer will shoot use marine first. And it will be crippled before counterattack.
Collect marines until you have 3 of them or more.
Then march them altogether toward the enemy's swarmers.
Remember you need to march at least 2 marines against 1 swarmer.
Doing that your enemy won't send their swarmers to cripple your marines.
Since their swarmers will be killed by your remaining healthy marines.
Then they have to fly their swarmers out of there.
However, this trick can be countered by pinzer/infector/wrym.
That why you should have some jeep/copter behind the marine line.
