You have to identify weaknesses at different times of the game and see how they can be addressed. If you can make a change with Scouts that smooths out the issue that is great. Just don't be a slave to fixing a unit that has a clear role. Scouts are hard counters to Devourers, Battlecruisers, Carriers, and Wraiths without cloak protection. Each unit has very restrictive reasons to be fielded against Protoss, so Scouts don't become necessary. While scouts may be useful against some air units, pretty much anything a scout can do in a useful manner, a corsair can do better. Scouts are useless because the corsair is significantly more efficient and effective than a scout. Corsair improves on speed, cost, and damage. Scouts are just useless unless your playing air wars, then a scout corsair mix could be decent. Scouts only real purpose is humiliation. EDIT: Typo | ||

Still it will be used mainly for BM'ing players like Fantasy who got terrible GG timing. | ||

 . I also used dark archons in almost every pvz that hits late game. feedback vs defilers and maelstrom vs ultra ling is amazingly cost effective, and because of the range of these spells the darchon rarely dies. | ||

What if you try to mind control your opponents probe (any other unit for that matter) when you have 200/200 psi? I'm not suggesting that would somehow allow you to get 400/400 but it would be interesting to see what would happen. | ||

Somewhat expected I suppose. But at least it would make it possible for 400/400 and more, albeit a bit more difficult. | ||

Has this been tested? I thought it would become 1/200 next to the 200/200 like it would with MC'ed Z or T units. | ||

How would that make it any possible for 400/400? It's not like you can build a pylon and increase your food at that point. It would make as much sense for a Zerg to use the extractor trick, get an extra drone, make a hatchery, and somehow end up with a higher maximum food count. Regardless of whose it was, when you mind control a probe then it's a probe, no different from any other probe. | ||

If Mind Controlled units could be added to your army even if its maxed-out then you could, provided you have a lot of DA's and/or patience keep mind controlling ad infinitum.
