When just moving around they behave exactly the same (moving a group of different workers will have them all move in perfect parallel). To clarify trying to attack move a worker is like this: Drone: go-spit-go-spit-go-spit-go-spit-go-spit-go-spit-go... Probe: go-slizlezlezlezle-go-slizlezlezlezle-go-slizlezlezlezle-go-slizlezlezlezle-go-slizlezlezlezle-go-slizlezlezlezle-go... SCV: go-bump unto target and stop-try to attack-hmm...target got out of nonexistent attack range-accelerate to go after target-damn, seems like target gotaway-I guess I'll stroll back to my minerals then... It's the bump into unit and stop part, due to the short attack range, that makes SCVs lose ground. Ahh, so with a range of 1 SCVs too could do moving shots? I was never quite sure if that was an inherent movement difference or just the range difference, thanks for letting me know | ||

I mean they already can do it, just pretty shittily, sometimes very rarely you see it used against Mutas (atleast thats the only time it happens at any non 0 frequency), to maybe get just a little more damage on them, its pretty cool actually! | ||

btw can someone confirm this two things to me please, and sorry for my extrene ignorance: 1) Diagonal Carriers = Carriers on pvt when crossed positions (only) on 4 player map, right? if so, does it has to be from 2 bases? 2) Barrack Double is...? At first i thought 2 barracks but I don't see that making any sense giving the context | ||

At first i thought 2 barracks but I don't see that making any sense giving the context 1) I don't know exactly what he meant, but cross position Carriers can be deadly on any map, even when not a 2-base timing. Actually, I think Carriers tend to work much better these days with a better economy than with the earliest possible timing. 2) Usually called Rax CC by foreigners. | ||

Their last tournament had a tiny live crowd, but the conditions for a live audience were kinda bad, and the youtube videos have quite a few views, so I am hoping it was still overall successfull enough? | ||

Or just that they shouldn't switch? I would think it would be an advantage for pros to practice in 16: 9 as early as possible since tournaments will be switching to Remastered ASAP. | ||

And can you stop trying to bash SC2 all the time, that makes you sound entitled and whiny... | ||
