Clustered Recall

Someone named Rhyme2 found this and posted to Korean SC discussion website. Apparently you can use archon fusing/probe + mineral then spamming patrol to make the units cluster together in a small area, at which point you click recall and bring 2~3 times the usual army size.

Koreans are going crazy about this. Some are saying this completely changes the TvP paradigm.

Mod Edit:

It's definitely possible in 1.16. Here's a video from 2016 well before Rhyme2's post.
Just a thought.

Woahhhh....

I find it more exciting that no one found this bug in 20 years than how it breaks the game.

Excellent, please cluster them even more so I can blow them all up with 1 mine or tank shot.

Really cool how they're un-clustered after the recall. Should be exciting to see if it appears in ASLs and such in the future, and how they'll use it.
It's ok. I still love you <3

jesus christ this is actually an incredible discovery. Terrans are going to need to spend so much more time respecting recalls now.

If you successfully do one of those recalls into the Terran main, you have literally won the game, because it will take such a long time to clean it up. By the time it is cleared, a new one will come ...
In life you can obtain all sorts of material wealth, but the real treasure is the epic feelings you get while doing something you love.
