I drop a mule after any significant fight goes my way regardless of the overall game situation. Sometimes I get raged at if I win, I'll always get raged at if I lose after that though, haha.

You just won the game but your sooooo angry about me helping you win it, hilarious.

It is different than offensive GG. There is nothing really fun about offensive GG. But manner muling, dancing your units, and my favorite; manner scans, are just kind of fun/celebratory I feel. There is never disrespect when I do it.
And I don't really like doing the manner mules, because they are used in my gameplay to repair my mech armies.

Wow. He DEFINATELY said in homestory cup about not doing it. Didn't know that ^_^ maybe him and his opponent had a bad history or something

Nah, he and the opponent in that game were joking around and it was just the culmination of it. His opponent knew he had lost and was just messing around for a long time.

well, what if the terran was in the moment and did not know if you were sending more units? those mules in front of the army could have been a protective barrier, that is the only reason I would use a bunch of mules with my army

Manner scans are awesome. But Dancing Mules are the best

I agree with most of the posters here, it's a bit of fun, everyone likes to gloat every now and then. OP do you have the same issue with dancing units. I have been known to that in peoples base's after a tough match. Is that as bad? Worse? be interesting to hear your thoughts guys.

Have you ever seen an oracle dance? Like a fucking disco ball? -_-; I don't mind manner mules or dancing.

Actually funny story, in the beginning of the game I put down my commandcenter to 1-0 and when I moved out, had superior army to Protoss given my ghosts I could have won the fight easy

1 marines, 2medivacs, 3 vikings,4 ghost, 5-0 ccs still I think (maybe 6 ebay, 7 active drops) well anyways. I took the engagement and my ghosts died while I wanted to emp, must have pressed 5 at that and went "eee" result was. Mannermules on his high templars in his army, losing the fight horribly T_T;

OFcourse he didn't believe it was by mistake, but still funny.

manner muling just means you got your shit pushed in. When you see the mules just leave the game and start up another, its really simple.

In a competitive match its part of the show, and maybe a way to stay confident. On ladder its a stupid thing to do.

I do it when my opponent cheeses and then when I hold it refuses to leave the game. Sends a message that allins are called allins because you cannot recover from failure and that you shouldn't waste time trying.

I played a 4v4 last night with some real life friends, I dropped the first 4 mules in the protoss base after their hellion sling and dt all in failed, oddly enough I used them to repair the bizarre mothership (rushed) my ally showed up with. The game went on for another 15 minutes but I had 4 ccs early on and kept manner muling all game long.

I only manner mule when the game is over and people should be leaving and aren't. That's when I bm. I proxy CCs, i float stuff, I have dance command hotkeyd. When a game is over it's over. Just leave. Being mannered is just something you get for poor gg timing.

I like all kinds of victory celebrations (mules, dances, manner hatches / nexus etc). It just builds up the fun factor.

Also, it is so great when the manner attempt fails and it is the other guy who wins the game... I remember a cool PvP (who were the players...?) where one guy went up the ramp with his pure gateway army and started dancing it around... At the same time DTs were moving into his base (no detection). Guess what, DTs won

People get offended so easy these days, its just a game, quit the match and go next. Im so offended by some random guy on the internet droping some pixels.

I don't manner mule, but if someone BMs me first I might manner Planetary them.

/dancing is also fun. No real harm in that.

I think compared to a Zerg who overruns you with all his units (+ overlords) and then dances all his ovis, manner mules are way less frustrating.

Still I totally don´t care and I even began to manner dance ovis in the last couple of weeks^^
