Some replays I've seen just have the probe pass straight through the zealot. Is there an easier way to do this? Click on a mineral field with the probe, it will pass through the zealot. | ||

I usually select Nexus, hit 'Z', click WG, again select Nexus, hit'Z' and click WG... But in some rep, toss seems to boost all at a moment. 2. Why does a scout worker gather enemy's mineral? Around 1:15~ in this rep. Although toss probe gathers zerg's mineral, he doesn't grab mineral. Well, I guess it is something like harrass. But I don't know what it is. 1. Hold 'Z' and click on the warp gates. I'm not a toss player, but i remember that doing it your way, "Z" then click, won't deselect the nexus, allowing you to press "Z" again and hit another warp gate. Nonetheless, holding "Z" should work. 2. It's harass. Only 1 worker can be on a mineral field at one time, so if your worker is 'mining' it, the opponent's worker will go and find another patch, delaying it. | ||

Let's say I'm playing TvZ, and I'm going Tank/Marine/Medivac with some Thors sprinkled in. On how many structures should I be on 3 bases? After I expand once, I add another factory (that makes 2) and I am on 5-6 barracks. However, after I take my third,I really don't know what to do and my money skyrockets. | ||

I'm gonna guess you build two forges somewhere in it, but beyond that I have no clue timings or anything, and searches on Google and TL don't say anything D: The double forge build is an amazing PvT build popularized by Tyler and iNcontroL. You basically stick to gateway production until you get 2/2 upgrades and from there you can tech to either colossus or high templar. The version I've been using is Gate Robo Gate Gate and Nexus right when my observer gets out. I build zealots and sentries for the most part, and the sentries allow for the build up of minerals that lets you expand. The observer goes to your opponents base, and if you see that your opponent is going to attack you pretty soon, you're free to cancel your nexus and you maintain the production of three gates and a robo. If your opponent is looking to play a macro game, keep the nexus and drop two forges whenever you can. Constant chronoboost on the two forges is essential, as it lets you get to 2/2 super fast. | ||

They do decent dps and you have to focus fire all of them down which is basically impossible? Primarily because they might not have gotten the infestors out too long before, and want to save their energy for Fungal Growth, which you really can't go without. | ||

I've heard lots of talk about it, I've never played bw myself or used them in sc2 so I'd like to understand it, like when and where to use it, thanks! ^_^ The F keys are used to remember locations, so basically you can save the location of each nexus to a different F key. For example if you wanted to defend a drop happening at your natural, instead of clicking on the minimap you could press F3 once and be there! | ||

Where can you find it out (I'm not sure if liqupedia's information is updated after the so many changes on the void ray) | ||

Is it done by a modifier (times "X") or a constant (plus "X") or a faster rate of fire(lower weapon cooldown)?
