Also, couldn't HSM be good against BL's? They can't dodge it/spread out that quickly (they usually get pretty clumped) | ||

And blocking ground movement is kinda what makes the BL good. You're right. This would allow terran to snipe brood lords with marines only. But you forget that Brood lord vs marine + Raven will never be the case (or at least pretty rare). There will always be roaches/lings/blings/mutas or whatever. The only thing I am worried about is that I need to build mutas/hydras/corrupters(more likely) in my unit composition to snipe the pdd before they nullify the brood lord attacks in battle. But indeed interesting that pdds block brood lord attacks. Never noticed/seen it.. | ||

doesnt stop the initial hit tho, but awesome for terrans with tanks as it stops siege tanks doing splash dmg | ||

They can't dodge it/spread out that quickly (they usually get pretty clumped) I would always prefer (now with the additional intel on pdds) pdd > hsm. When I play as zerg vs terran thors, which are horrible against brood lords can rape them because of the fact that their air attack do splash damage. And if your brood lords are stacked while 3 thors attack them.. well you know what I want to illustrate here. Normally you would spread them so no splash damage can be dealt. And hsm costs afaik 150 mana so you could not cast an additional pdd without the energy upgrade (hope I am not mistaken that the energy upgrade gives additional +50 energy to the max pool). But if you see large stacked mutas groups + brood lords + something of 46542 units that pretend to be one, then go for it and enjoy your achievement :D | ||
