I tried to do it and did it like 6 times. But I can't get the technique right and have to try a lot before I can get it :/

it really doesnt help you get across the map faster because your wasting so much time stuck behind the object, your essentially covering the same amount of ground in the same amount of time

How can it happen to you all the time... I've must have played and watched thousands of games and I've only seen it ONCE.

There was my topic about it. Link to rep doesn't work so nevermind.

Because it doesn't happen to him all the time, he just said it did for no reason, or maybe some sort of petty bragging, I don't know. It obviously can't happen to anyone all the time unless he can somehow duplicate it.

I've seen it happen a fair few times but probably not for a few years now. I think it pretty much always happened when units got stuck on each other trying to pass and then hit the NOS.

Firstly this bug has been here forever and secondly its probably the least gamechanging bug ever because it cant be reproduced

and its just like one already said to resync the game, the units seem to be stuck at your client but not on the other player/players, they are just as long sped up unit they are at the position they are on the other player

I've seen this happen in a pro-game with Savior.

Also happens quite often in UMS maps.

There wa a UMS map specifically designed to recreate the "tango" bug with most any units. basically you get the 2 units to run into each other and "tango" or "dance" back and forth trying to get passed each other. But they end up shooting off at high speed.

A couple other related glitches are when this happens on a ramp and the units just get stuck on the ramp in an infinite jumble trying to escape.

Another bug I had with lurkers a few times when I burrow them they half burrow or just hold position above ground and fire as if they were fully under ground. The shitty thing though is that you don't need detection to hit them.

Is there a list of bugs somewhere that everyone can send to blizzard to fix?

Specifically the download ## glitch, and the black game join list hang screen, and the glitch that makes units freeze when you issue to many commands (this glitch happens to me like every game that I use lings and try to surround units).

Bug duplicated with success. A simple map. Look on minimap. When you see a green dot shoots up/down, those are the insane zealots.
