Any determined player should be able to crush you if you only defend with mines.

Example: Jangbi vs Fantasy

If you're moving away from both scarabs and mines you can dodge the majority of the damage and only take the splash damage if you're quick and lucky. 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 don't think they dud like scarabs but they often lift up and then pop back down again.

Mines do dud, it's rare but on certain positions around ramps/edges it does happen.

BW is an art. A sometimes frustrating and infuriating art. If you want to put the square peg in the square hole and have life make sense, we have SC2.

Edit: I do not condone playing SC2 under any circumstances.


I heavily approve of this post.

Does that only work if the DT has vision of the mines? I cant imagine someone using that in a real game without knowing where any of the mines are.(and slowly stuttering everywhere) I know u can kill the mine as its being laid and stuff, or with that shuttle trick drop, mine pops pick up as it explodes and take no damage.
But that video seems to rely on seeing the mine and then getting into a nice distance to run up and kill it before it explodes.

I'm pretty sure you are right as it seems the Protoss player controlling the DT's has complete vision of the Terrans base.

You can do it without vision but you need to know where the mines are roughly.

Dts have a slightly longer attack length then most melee units(firebat excluded). If you time it right with the hold button when the mine is 1 step away the dt can one hit the mine and take no damage. Much more reliable then randomly getting it out of main blast radius.
Limited Edition, lets do some simple addition, $50 for a T-Shirt is just some ignorant bitch shit.

I was playing a standard FD expand. Opponent opens DT rush. I get suspicious by the lack of expansion, zealot first, and ramp blocking so I lay defense mines. I even try and position units to prevent zealot/dragoons from clearing mines. 1st DT is killed by mines. I have two mines laid for the 2nd, so I figure I'm in the clear. He eats the 1st mine in the face and then much to my dismay triggers the 2nd mine and survives! I might have been able to recover from here, but I was too surprised and confused to mount a solid defense.

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?
