#337 - A great rule of thumb is that for full saturation, you'll get ~800 minerals and ~220 gas per base. (3 workers on each mineral node / vespene geyser). This is awesome for on-the-fly planning. Efficient Mining Breakdown (A very good technical read and overall a very useful insight into base economies.)

#338 - you can morph archons from any combinaison of high templar and dark templar (2ht, 1dt & 1ht, or 2dt) (duplicate from 259?)

340: Loading into command centers or PFs when being harassed can ensure the survival of 5 (or 10, if you researched the +bunker capacity upgrade) SCVs from the likes of mutalisks or hellions, which you might not be able to escape from in time otherwise.

241. (Z) Burrow is a great way to save drones from mid/late game harass.

for:
188. (ZvP) Unmicroed, a roach loses to a zealot. [vid]

Although it still may be true, that video was uploaded before the 1.1.2 patch (upload in aug, patch released in sept.) where the range was increased...

Can confirm Zealot beats a Roach. Zealot comes out with 27 health.

#341 - Edit: Duplicate.

The tip above is misleading, in that game time is different than real time, and you'd have to listen to the same song, starting at the same time, every game for it to be of use. In a sense, it's not even a tip directly relating to SC2. Shouldn't be included.

stop being dumb and think about what you say before you say it

#341 - running DTs into a group of banelings and then morphing them into an archon is very cost effective provided there is no detection over the banelings

Here is the absolute answer as far as auto-repair SCVs healing medivacs, bunkers, and other units inside them.

SCVs on auto-repair placed inside Medivacs, Bunkers, Command Centers, and Planetary Fortesses WILL repair damaged units inside those same structures.

SCVs on auto-repair placed inside Medivacs, Bunkers, Command Centers and Planetary Fortresses WILL NOT repair the damaged container vehicle / structure itself, nor will they repair damaged units in the nearby vicinity, but outside the structure.

I just tested it ingame.

342: +1 Reapers 2-shot workers (except scvs, those don't get 2 shot unless the reaper is +3)
343: 3 +1 phoenixes can kill a queen, assuming they start hitting immediately.

344: I always join a ladder game staring at the loading screen, then when the game starts I forget what race the guy is. Happens to me a lot, then I realized if you press the icon in the top right, you can find out their race. Great tip for those that don't know.

I'm sorry? I don't understand. Perhaps I sounded a bit harsh, I just didn't see the viability in such a thing. To know where you're at in a game, based on where your at in a song, would involve starting a song at the exact same time at the start of every game, otherwise you'd be off a few seconds. And what happens when you play without the song? Also focusing on a song could remove attention from the game. And what about things that don't have a consistent timing, such as scouting, or if you feel the need to change your build order based on what you scout/what you want to do?

If you use corruption + fungal growth the enemy unit takes 20% more damage, and 50% if it's an armoured unit.

(T) Nukes in TvT can be used to force enemy siege tanks to move, and if the opponent does not have good reaction time can obliterate a sieged army.

"If your worker already carries a mineral, you can mineralwalk much faster by using Return (C)argo."

That doesn't work if you want to get into your opponents base though.

My addition: Chronoboost reduces the time it takes for shields to recharge.

Units will have a short hesitation while moving through a queued (shift-click) move command node, but will not hesitate through a patrol node. This, as well as avoiding sharp turns, can make your initial scouting worker last longer against pursuing defenders.

Replace unused numbers like #10

345: You can shift+# to add zerg eggs into your current army control group to make the units go immedietly to the battle, and ignore rally points.
