Its stuff like these that make me love starcraft. Like when swarm made archons do splash now zerg go defiler vs toss. Or when they found out boxes and hotkey overlord with mutas.

I'm not going to bother because I'm rebuilding the Recommended Threads thread from scratch. It'll be in the updated version.

No. As I feel I've stressed multiple times the dark needs to stop directly in front of the mine. Patrol causes a face full of explosion unless you get a lucky mine ai bugging angle. Unless you have some method I've not seen before in which case please explain how it can be done with patrol.

So in a progame, someone would be able to coast through a minefield by using hold position as soon as a mine triggers (of course, triggering multiple mines is still a problem)? Sick.

edit: If I understand correctly, the key is that the DT should stop moving at a position where the mine is in swipe range but far enough so that the mine needs to pop up and move to be able to explode. Attack move or patrol makes the DT go past the critical point and thus run into the mine pretty often. Holding immediately after the mine pops (assuming no latency) doesn't work either because then the mine won't be in range?

I try this all the time, and i usually end up focusing so hard to inch my DT's in that I forget about everything else, and by the time my DT dies I'm at liek 600 minerals, no expo, 40ish psi.

Precisely. The dt needs to be walking towards the mine too because otherwise, unless you have amazing reactions, it won't be able to close the distance and swipe before the mine starts moving.

Nope, Pros will counter with multiple mines next to each other or even Iris floating barracks over mines.
