This technique most likely has just ended the reign of terran mech vs Zerg?

After watching IdrA use it vs Tarson, I am just amazed O.o

How is this a bug/exploit?

And, Tarson reinforced with the wrong unit, too many hellions, shoulda had marines.. this is why we see Korean Terrans go bio/mech.

if you add marines, banelings woulda been the case.
which result in even more rape.

Because it's just a technique to keep your units in formation? And I'm sure zergs would be more than happy to start fighting more bio heavy builds if they start doing that as a counter.

no it's not its absolutely opposite of bug. this is how game mechanics work.

and it's in our life since brood war.

it's called magic box. affecting movement and casting behaviours of units

You can try to micro the marines and maybe add some hellions. Marines and hellions should be reinforced endlessly since they cost no gas and you only need a few upgrades, what other options are there? Ravens for hunter seeker missile against the mutas?


Mutas vs pure mech wins.

Mutas vs bio/mech, the better micro wins.

So far I think thats what we can see.


This should evolve into something nice, more ravens possibly.

I find it difficult to believe that IdrA didn't know about this before.
I mean, he plays this game professionally. Surely it's not that hard to figure out?

If Blizzard wants Thors to be a hard counter to Muta's they are just going to buff the AoE.
Give a man a fire keep him warm for a while. Light a man on fire, keep him warm for life.

They can't buff splash further because then people who don't use this will get raped a bit too much by Thors...
