(Immortal micro begins at 10:52 - although the whole replay is really quite interesting) I'm wondering if this type of high APM micro will become more common. Units such as Immortals/Tanks can abuse their attacks to instantly deal damage and avoid shots from roaches/spines/marauders etc. I think we'll see a lot more of this as players critique their multitasking to accommodate such advanced micro. I think this is just one example that illustrates how high the skill ceiling truly is for SC2. | ||

The roach and spine shots still only gonna do 10, and then u can just lift away and let full recharge and go back in after 10 hits or so. PS- The queens AA is 9 range and can rape the weak ass warp prism from well out of range of the immortal or support. People were doing immortal drops first month of beta. I believe louder and KHB we fans of it. Then recently for MLG or something HuK or someone did a build vs Idra where he rushed this drop and warped in zeals and shit with the immortals. | ||

I am so glad that they are nerfing that wall-in and making 50% more expensive to do. | ||

In the MLG game you mention (IdrA vs Kiwikaki), the situation was quite different, however. There was no Warp Prism micro. IdrA has posted a very nice analysis video here: | ||

Even though the protoss epic failed with that cannon wall-in, he still ended up crippling that poor zerg player. The force fielding just made it even harder to watch. I am so glad that they are nerfing that wall-in and making 50% more expensive to do. That was some impressive force-fielding by NS, instant timing and perfect placement. It dosen't make me depressed, just impressed at how powerful and useful sentries still are. I feel like i haven't seen sentry micro like that since beta; good show. | ||
