Question, how many workers must be pulled to out DPS a building under construction?

For example, say a drone drops a proxy hatchery in your base or a probe warps in a pylon. How many workers should you pull to optimally destroy the building while minimizing the economic sacrifice?

Depends a 2x2 building (pylon) is 4 workers

Building HP/S is = Max HP/Build time

You can pull up to 8 workers if it's a Hatchery

Not sure if this is the correct place to ask this but could someone direct me to a build order of the hellion banshee opener that has been around lately in Dreamhack, the fact may or may not have a reactor cloak may or may not be researched (probably not I think) depends on the players. Thanks.

If you cloak a ghost, then load it into a medivac, will it still be cloaked when you unload the ghost?
Also, does the energy depletion rate stay the same?

Hi, just curious, how does fungal growth and the corruption spell interact?


Yes. Corruption will add 20% damage onto fungal (and stacks additively with the +armor bonus). If casted after fungal, corruption begins applying on the next tick of fungal.

...that's incredibly vague. Can you meet the following conditions? Then I'd be happy to help
1. Are you Protoss or Terran?
2. What kind of 1 base all-in are you talking about.
3. What build are you doing before you scouted the all-in?

Against a void ray allin, if you have multiple rax, begin stim research if you haven't already, and make as many marines as possible. If you walled, incorporate a bunker into your wall and put marines in it to help defend your supply depots. One trick is to deny your depots so he can't charge his void rays on them.

Against a DT allin, lay down an engi bay and get a turret as soon as possible. If you have a tech lab starport, a raven will do as well. Otherwise, just try to stall until you have a scan, and pull scv/units to build a wall to keep the Dts out.

Against a 3 gate Robo allin, don't bother trying to tech to Ghosts or anything you think will be good against immortals-- using whatever you have lying around, and just making more of those units, plus bunkers, should do the job.

In general, if you went for a fast expansion against an allin, you can afford / its a good idea to cut scvs and ramp up production. As long as he's on one base and you're on two, even if you have the same worker count, all you need to do is hold his all-in; with your superior worker production capability and the fact that you're mining at a higher rate since your saturation point is higher, as well as the fact that he'll need to invest into an expansion AND WAIT for it to come up before he can match your scv production... well, you can afford to cut workers when you're that far ahead economically. All you need to do is weather the push and you'll win.
