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.

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

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.
