as you guys all saw in ret's recent courage run, he has become quite the baller @ ZvZ. I sat him down at a PC Bang here in Korea, and had him do a little tutorial on how anyone can become great at Mutalisk Micro.

Youtube is up!:


ret teaches you how to micro mutas!

the map he was using/is talking about can be found here:

Enjoy!

This is all a ruse. He is teaching us the wrong way to micro mutas so that when he plays Castro, Castro will be unable to kill any scourge

thanks dan

I've played the same map quite a bit, and ret is really spot on when he says you learn a lot about scourge movement and timing and stuff like that. Sometimes you can't afford to play around with stuff like that in a real game, because if you mess up your mutas don't just randomly respawn lol. I must have wasted spent tonnes of hours of this map practicing

While looking at the BWAPI videos, there's a way for mutas to shoot backwards with little to no deceleration. Can this be done?

Yes, but you have to actually click on the scourge.Jaedong does it in this video at 8 minutes in, it's 1 muta vs 1 scourge.



Needless to say it's extremely hard.

2 theories/setups on this if you're looking for advice:

0sd9sd8sd - it uses 2 hands, but it allows for you to 1a2a3a with hydra/lings
1sd2sd3sd - lets you patrol with muta and build with 1 hand, can't 1a2a3a.

And youre still using google chrome right? He said that the problem is between korean video sites and google chrome. Nothing he can do about it so I suggest you change browser when watching his vids.

Needless to say it's extremely hard.

I think you guys are speaking of the "chinese triangle". Not that hard to learn but it's not as useful as the "regular" patrol trick because the scourge pretty much need to be alone, or in a very stacked group, for it to work.

If youre interested:

Robinsa:
No, actually look at what Jaedong does in that game then look at the Chinese triangle. His muta literally shoots like a vulture would if it could attack scourge. The Chinese triangle is much easier to do but the muta "circles around" and faces the wrong direction for a relatively long time, so it's just not going to work if the scourge is close.

You can only use this when your muta count is high enough though.

Not really as viable when you have a low muta count since one of your mutas doesn't get to fire.

Wonders: Could you elaborate more on the mechanics behind it? 1 muta vs scourge situations are always so frustrating. -_-

you have to use drone to select either 6 mutas vs 6 scourges (sunken beakon) or 11 mutas vs 11 scourge (spore beakon).

there's a set time in which mutas will decelerate if not moved, lets say it's 1 second. Given that sometimes (ret said always, but it's not completely true :}) mutas will have some delay between patrol click and shooting, which let's say is 0.5s. That means you got 0.5s left to click away and your mutas won't decelerate :}.

Not only 1 of the mutas won't shoot, but the rest of the mutas will de-stack, while increasing posibility that you will get some extra scourge hits.

thanks a bunch

I like how ret is being open about all these things: teaching us newbies how to play, talking about his experiences in korea, streaming (even from a PC bang!! which takes a little effort to set up) etc.

Met him at WCG cologne last year, such a nice guy.

Best of luck in TSL, I'll root for you if you don't play against kolll or mondragon ;-) Little nation pride there sorry...
Oh and during soccer world championship I never said I like you.

not to be a dink (i love your vids), but as r1ch pointed out, chrome doesn't "hate" korean video servers. it's displaying that warning for a reason, somewhere in the interwebs connected to afreeca and sc4all is malicious code

if the mutas are too close, like almost right up your ass, what do you do to get out of that?

I noticed when I tried this map in single player there's like no delay between commands but when I try it in LAN alone there's like a fraction of a second delay. Is there anyway I can fix the delay or is this normal?

Hey guys, i've just spent the night workin on an update for this korean muta micro map ret & artosis recommend. After seeing the video of ret demonstrating his sick skills, i gave the map a whirl my self, i did download it last year when it was first released, i noticed that the leaderboard doesnt reset by it's self, and i thought it was nice the way ret made him self a target of between 30-50.

Reloading the map while online would be tiresome, and i know the latency for single player is much faster then iccup, so i decided to make some changes to the scoreboard, to have it reset to 0 after you lose your group of muta. I also spent quite a bit of time adding a Highest Kills (Record) feature, so that you can see what your previous record is.

It turned out to be alot of laboursome coding and has more then doubled the filesize of the map. I hope you guys enjoy this version, please leave me any comments, thanks.

ah god i can't believe i've been practicing this map in single player for months instead of on LAN, no wonder my muta micro is worse on ICCUP.

thanks to: ret/artosis for the tutorial, stone[MB] for the reset/highscore version

I've also made an edited version of the original map, in which you can stack with burrow, slow overlords, and larvae. It is much easier to stack on this edited version. If you're interested:

Wanted to say thanks too, this map is a lot better from the previous that I had (the one where scourges flies from different angles every time), because the scourge ai here is much better :}. For anyone else who has any other kind of muta vs scourge map, I strongly recommend downloading this one, since it helps so much more. When I started I was getting ~10 kills per 6 mutas constantly, now I do 25-30 kills per 6 mutas constantly :} (record 56 wooO!). Thanks a lot Ret, Artosis and Stone too ;].

I can't fucking get it to work consistantly. I'm currently trying with (2) clicks based on what red said -- patrol behind (the circle labled P), move away (M circle, or, some spot on one of the lines). 95% of the time the patrol doesn't fire. At first, I thought that this was due to me moving away too fast (as ret mentioned),so, I tried not moving afterwards. Result? Mutas just die without shooting.

I've stopped all the way down to slow speed, and, it seems the only way I can get them to shoot with patrol is to face the mutas towards the scourge, then click patrol in front of the muta, then click away.

Most of the time they just de-stack into two groups and act all fucking useless.

Haha, I have been doing the same thing lately. I play Protoss, but for some reason I really enjoy playing ZvZ lol. So maybe I can get my muta vs scourge micro up a little and play ZvZ more now.

This alone will cause a level shift in ZvZ.
So if you were a C- ZvZer before this, and you didn't do extra practice, you can consider yourself a D+ ZvZer now.

He means that everyone is going to practice this and get better. So if you don't, too bad you are only D+ now because everyone can muta micro now.

I can't seem to improve AT ALL doing this. I've been doing it on LAN and I have no idea how and in which directions I'm supposed to micro these things. I've yet to pass 10 kills per group. I've just been getting more frustrated every single time... can anyone give me some idea of what I've been fucking up? I've been letting them get close, moving and hitting patrol in front of them, and no matter how many times I re-watch the video it doesn't get more lucid for me.

I'm completely new to SC and TL, so feel free to harass me for protocol violations... ^^ (I realize this thread is 6 weeks old, but I didn't want to create a new one).

I've DLed the map from scforall.com but I don't think it's the same map Ret uses in the video: Ret is grouping with a ling, and for the life of me, I don't get a ling when I run this map.

Secondly, Ret is not continually having to move his drone to the 6-scourge beacon and the 12-scourge beacon to get new scourges each time. Do you guys just do it by hand? You can't burrow the drone since it's not researched.

It's in the bottom right, also whenever the scourge die, 6 more respond.
