what is "the best" way to pickup a lot of sieged tanks with medics? Let's say in a big engagement i have like 8-10 tanks and the same amount of medics, how do i pick them all up the fastest?

if i just click them through, every medivac will go to the same tank, one picks it up and then they move to the next one, which is very bad. There has to be a way that every medivac moves to a seperate tank to pick it up, but how?

Use your 'load unit' shortcut, this way the medivacs will spread to different tanks.

Is there a mod or custom game or arcade game that reimplements the old swarmhost from HotS in the HotS expansion? To be clear, what I'm looking for is a map or mod or something that is a standard HotS map, with the swarmhost changed back to the auto respawn, crawling locust, vs ground only, version.

Reposting this because I don't want it to disappear at the bottom of the last page.

blinding cloud has never really been part of the metagame tbh, it's basically just the viper ability you use when there's nothing to parasitic bomb or abduct. but it can be really good in some specific cases. it's just a matter of quick thinking. it's pretty good against lurkers in lategame zvz too, but most people prefer to skip zvz with lingbane or roach allins...

not sure if it works on cyclones but i think it should because the cyclone ability is not the attack, it just changes the range of the attack. but i could be wrong on that

Did something change in the BattleNet social/chat interface recently? Now every time a match is over my opponent is immediately offline so I can't mesage them a "good game". I guess it could be a coincidence and all these people immediately went offline after the match but it makes me wonder if things were changed so that if you were set to only receive messages from friends on your list that the sender no longer gets a message about ("X has chosen to only receive messages from people on their friend list") that but the player is simply shown as offline.

Does anyone know if there was any change?

Liquipedia :D

Biles do 60 and ignore armor, tanks have 160hp, so 3
Medivacs have 150hp so 3 as well, BUT it does exactly 150 damage with 1 fungal and 2 biles so if you catch a bunch of them with an infestor you only need 2 biles.

Has anyone tested whether it has any noticeable benefits to transferring more workers to your natural early on. For example in Terran reaper expand you usually end up just rallying your main command center to your natural when the natural CC finishes because the main is at 16/16. However if you send 8 workers from your main you can prolong the lifespan of the main mineral line. You obviously don't gain any mining efficiency because the main was at 16/16 workers but perhaps it might help in situations where you had to abandon your third and now have some leftover patches in the main. In theory it has benefits but I'm not sure if their is any noticeable difference and if anyone has actually examined it. Thanks.

Is it a "feature" to get medivacs stuck at the bottom of the map for like 2 minutes? O_o Like I was behind the red thingy that I didn't notice, first time playing the map, and I could not get out of it, I had to boost the medivacs individually and it took a while to get them all out...

Bug or "feature", this doesn't make sense either way.

The idea is that the islands arent too punishable if you take them, so you can protect them with minimum turrets/cannons/spores from drops, hence the air blockers.
Its interesting compared to classic island maps where they're never used, but it causes headaches to more than one players ;D
So yeah you have to be careful and shift click thorugh it or go next to it.

I'm okay with the fact I can't enter on the island from everywhere, but why do I get stuck?

Blame the UI pathing

Who else always tries to manuelly use 2 Adepts at a time to Shiftclick through workers ( all during warpprism adept harass)? But often times i dont know if its even worth the Apm , and i rather just let the Adepts alone im mineral line, so they will first focus the queen... In the endi dont think i have enough EAPM to maximize the damage i couldve done theoretically (

If you have 4-6 adepts (very likely when your WP is around), and there is nothing but queen and drones, you can a-move to kill the queen then some drones. With only 2 adpets (runby like), focusing is better since killing the queen will take too much time indeed.

If you're talking about New Gettysburg then it's more of a problem with SC2's pathing AI. Of course, almost no maps use air blockers.
