Warning: This is not finished yet
I will be testing some medic optical flare strategies.
optical flare makes a unit only have vision of 1 matrix and detection properties gone.

I am doing this because the build orders of the future may not be the same as they are now. I would love to have one of my strategies used by a pro

Also flaring observers to kill carriers with cloaked wraiths, I know there was a video of boxer doing it, but can't find it among all the SC2 stuff any more. The sad truth is that improving something that professionals have been perfecting for years is not that straightforward.

optic flare observers works great with mines against computers on ums maps
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Didn't light break lurkers on a ramp on la mancha just recently using optical flare with only MM? I can't remember who the Zerg was exactly, think it was crazy-hydra.

Can't find it.

Light can look gosu with any unit, except tanks I guess.

Light looks gosu with all units in TvZ. His TvZ is really S class, he's basically a favourite against all zerg players so :p
Wasn't it against action btw?
