We've all seen units survive longer than they should because of high ground, and it's significant in some outcomes. Are there any games you can think of where a unit has just gotten lucky and survived absurd amounts of firepower? I can't think of any specific instances myself. I'm really curious about this. The most insanely enduring unit in a pro game is an interesting record. This has to have happened sometime, right?  | ||

Kind of neat, and was cool to occasionally see progamers deliberately siege near them and stuff | ||
