build sunken out of range of the defending one and bring some drones to constantly make pools/cancel when nearly done/remake so the your sunken, attacks the sunkens out of range | ||

If you place a Sunken in the correct place, the Starcraft unit attacking AI will do everything for you. Check the replay  You are clearly overestimating them. They probably dont even know that there is a pre-attack frame of animation, just as they dont know that some of things in starcraft are frame dependant. | ||

The interceptors fly through the whole map to return to the carriers, just after the carriers are recalled somewhere else (I think it happened in that TL staff BGH name for example). | ||

In the replay (youtubed above) the Cannon attacks the Hatchery, which is next to the Sunk. So is this purely timing dependent? (You have to time your sunken's attack on the pylon so that the cannon will hit the hatchery at the appropriate time, right?) | ||

I like the writeup, but not the trick itself. Unlike the other tricks in the game, I think this one should be fixed. | ||

I seriously doubt it will ever become a problem. To me, it just seems a bit too luck-dependant to be a reliable trick. | ||
