c. Air units visually outside the shield, but shadow is inside the guardian shield

I took this to mean the unit's projection on the ground (like the helper circle) rather than the actual shadow (which is displaced by the angle of the light).

b



I'm pretty sure this is c, right? I've actually (somehow) ran into this in a real game.

Just tested this, and damn, it turns out that it's b. I guess I fail.

I feel pretty good about how many of these I got right, but I was shocked at the guardian shield low/high ground stuff. I can't even think of the number of games I've pushed up a Terran's ramp with a sentry on the low ground throwing up guardian shield for attacking zealots. Oh, the shame!

while they're in melee range, yes. that's kinda logical.


Nvm, I read it as roaches or hydras attacking with melee animation instead of roaches or hydras attacking with melee animation

64 >.> Despite playing Protoss, I'm pretty baffled that I get full refund if pylon is destroyed.
Oh well, it's not like I play much :p Still, this quiz is about some factoids so what if a progamer did get less than 60?
Just do it.

Got 70, though it's mostly because I've tested similar things myself. Lots of funny things to know
Note that in the campaign, medics can heal units inside bunkers or transports, too. I didn't know that guardian shield didn't apply for ground units on lower/higher ground.

66 =/

Most of the stuff I was wrong on was T/Z stuff.

Difficult quiz.

This post is completely awesome! Learned a few things.

I had so many misconceptions about Q.17...

I now realize how much attention and energy (irl energy) I have wasted on cancelling training units..

Btw, when you kill a pylon warping in stuff not only do you get your money back, but the cooldown time on the warpgates reset.
