4 real carriers, 8 hallucinations, sent them in against a T who had no anti-air and typed GG (I know, bad manner, but it was just a huge bluff), guy said GG and quit, I felt like a champion. I wonder if that dude ever watched the replay of that game... hahaha... | ||

Not to mention the waste of energy. 2 extra obs arent even very hard to snipe | ||

But having a couple thousand HP worth of tanking units is pretty useful in PvT. Question is whether storm would be better suited. I imagine there exist timing windows where a mass hallucination zeal goon break against a terran would work. Hallucinations take extra damage from everything. They just melt away to mines and don't really tank much imo | ||

he hallucinated arbiters so it looked like he had 8-10 when he really had 2 and split them into 2 groups (the fake ones going north end of terran base, real ones going a little to the south) the terran player overreacted and sent his whole force over to the group with fake arbs and left the 2 real arbs free to recall. so pvt hallucinate arbs= good | ||

^^^ Jangbi vs. Flash Flash gg's like literally 2 secs after he see's the carriers... and Jangbi only had 4... Even if those had been hallucinations he would have won  so I'm sure it's been done before even at the pro level. I mean those carriers didn't even kill anything... | ||

He gg'd at his entire army getting raped by storm. | ||

Not really. Hallucinated observers and dark templar don't cloak. It should have been utterly obvious to the opponent that there were hallucinated observers, because there is no other way to see them uncloaked. | ||

It should have been utterly obvious to the opponent that there were hallucinated observers, because there is no other way to see them uncloaked. I'm assuming that they would probably have overlords and scourge/hydra to support the lurkers anyway, since there would be no other reason to hallucinate the observer in the first place if you can just make it sit there while your other units kill the lurkers, in which case, it doesn't even matter whether they can see them or not. >___> | ||
