Well, i think that this will be interesting for somebody.
So, when different units are selected and given orders - for example marine and medic, we see the medic's pictire and hear the medic's voice - because the medic has higher rank than a marine.
I made an experiment to see the ranks of all units, incl. heroes from all races (for example, what happens, when you select a zealot, a hydralisk and a firebat).
There are some units with equal ranks - if they are selected one by one, we see the picture of the first selected unit. If you drag a rectangle around such units, a random unit is chosen.

So, the ranks are: (from lower to higher, units with equal ranks are on the same line)
1. Probe, Civilian, Larva
2. SCV, Interceptor, Lurker Egg
3. Marine, Observer, Cocoon
4. Medic, Zealot, Broodling
5. Firebat, Drone, Dragoon
6. Ghost, Zergling, Reaver
7. Vulture, Scourge, High Templar
8. Goliath, Infested Terran, Shuttle
9. Siege Tank, Overlord, Scout, Corsair
10. Dropship, Hydralisk, Archon, Dark Archon
11. Wraith, Mutalisk, Lurker, Arbiter
12. Science Vessel, Guardian, Carrier
13. Devourer, Defiler, Dark Templar, Gui Montag (FB hero), Mojo, Artanis (Scout heroes), Warbringer (Reaver), Danimoth (Arbiter)
14. Queen, Alan Schezar (Goliath), Fenix (Zealot)
15. Ultralisk, Tom Kazansky (Wraith), Fenix (Goon)
16. Battlecruiser, Magellan (Vessel) and all zerg heroes but Infested Kerrigan
17. Valkyrie, Infested Kerrigan, Tassadar (HT)
18. Jim Raynor (Marine and Vulture), Tassadar/Zeratul (Archon), Ganthritor (Carrier)
19. Sarah Kerrigan, Samir Duran (ghosts)
20. Edmund Duke (Tank)
21. Hyperion (BC)
22. Norad II (BC)
23. Alexei Stukov (Ghost)

Totally random, but interesting, like you said.


and weird that Alexei Stukov is the #1 in all of SC.

When I first saw this thread I thought you were going to compile what should be given priority on the battlefield.

I'm fairly sure someone already did this in another thread somewhere

Because they wanted everyone to hear that cool valk voice. Seriously though, zergling should be the highest.

(blizzard probaly just entered some kind-of-random value for the valk, they were quite lazy when they made bw, for example the bw tilesets have properties (not very obvious unless you are into mapping) that show how lazy they were)
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Medic being below Firebat doesnt make any sense..especially since the Terran units usually go by rank pretty well (tanks being higher than vultures and what have you)
