Watching the replay the DT changes direction just as the mine triggers causing it to only deliver splash damage, letting him survive with 3hp. Has anyone else seen this happen before? Was it just a fluke or was my opponent actively microing to try and dodge? Replay: http://repdepot.net/replay.php?id=54407 Action at 5:30 | ||

Also if you manage to run away from a mine long enough, just like a scarab it will dud. I've never seen a spider mine dud. | ||

I thought that if you ran away from a spider mine long enough it will just burrow back in the ground, instead of being a dud (I could be wrong though). | ||

That depends on strange and unknown factors... usually somehow something to do with arbiter cloaking as far as I've observed, even though mines detect. Might be some strange discrepancy between their detection range, their trigger distance, and their movement speed. I would love to know the answer. | ||

Neither have I... :\ the closest thing I've seen to a dud is the drop-diffuse thing where you drop a unit the mine runs at it and you pick up as it explodes, if that counts as "dud"ing | ||

What if the unit that gets targeted by a mine gets recalled  I feel like the mine in both cases would just burrow again | ||

However, it's a frustration and fury directed towards the fact that people exist that are stupid enough to play it rather than for the game itself. | ||

Yes, and you could also detonate a mine using this method with any other unit in a shuttle. One danger of dropping dt's out of a shuttle is, sometimes the dt is visible to the terran for a moment when it unloads from a shuttle, even if there is no detection present. Now what is up with THAT? | ||
