448. (ZvT) It takes 3 snipes for a ghost to kill an infestator, due to the fact that he regen 1 life when hurt (and 90-2x45 +1 =1pv).
However, if you click with 2 ghost on the ground at range of snipe of an infestator, then shift 2 snipe, they will 1-shot him (because due to the shift, the snipe will occur exactly at the same time)

However, I would suggest that you divide these up by races also. Just would make it easier for me to view.

reapers with +1 attack will 2-shot probes and drones without armor upgrades, their damage being 2x10x2shots = 40

448. The reapers attack can be absorbed by the PDD if fired at a building but not when fired at a unit.

this is true, until now i'd never noticed an scv has 5 more hp than both drones and probes, i always just assumed they had the same hp.

449: If a marine with combat shields stims once, it takes 2 banelings to kill the marine, if 2 stims are used (or 1 stim without combat shields), it only takes 1 baneling to kill a marine. Be careful not to overstim!

451: (P) When making Forward pylon (Proxy). Bind it to a hotkey. For example. Army on "1", Pylon on "3" and Warp gates on "4". When you want to reinforce Double tap, "3". Then press "4", Warp in. Bind the reinforcement to your army, and double tap "1".

Do you mean this is Tip #450 or the 450th time this tip has been mentioned in this thread ?

It's much more convenient to use camera location hotkeys for this because you don't need to double tap. Also later on in the game you might not want to waste a hotkey for this.

T 448 - mid to late game. when doing multiple scans. instead of just selecting all your orbitals and scannign multiple times, it may be better to select a difffernt orbital for each scan due to each orbital using up one scan instead of 1 using 2-3 scan meaning better energy regen overall allowing more scans or mules usage.
bring back black scvs...they had 60 life and worked harder

We're starting to get high numbers of duplicates, darn, it will be hard when we reach like 800... hehe.

The Reaper/PDD is typically a non-tip, it's just a 99.9% useless know-how. If reapers were more popular I'd consider adding it, but as it is now, nope.

Still, good tips are still coming in fresh, which is nice, keep'em coming

This is something to be considered when 1000 tips are completed.


Regarding what graNite suggested with open editing, I'm not sure if that would be beneficial or not, really, so... I'll just state for now that if someone has wording suggestions for a previous tip, or additions, I will always consider them. Editing tips is equally important as adding new ones.

Although I don't know why prOpSaiton has any decisionmaking in that, he's right, it's probably something that could be done in the future.

Something else that coulda been cool would to make a brief site for it, because there's probably alot of formatting that could be done (visually, and category-wise), but I think not. Keeping it simple, because the best pieces of information are often on notepad sheets or forums - info > visuals in cases like this.

Thank you all, comments such as those mean alot. When I started the topic it was with the hope that people would indeed learn stuff from it - being in a rather compact format there's plenty of information to take in for those who want to.

Yeah, I'll do that when I have time to clean up the formatting, so I can make a quick RegExMatch script that sorts all of'em. If you think I would sort 500 tips manually, think again. :D

Here's one that I've been using, but didn't think it was such a huge deal until I saw it in a pro game. Can't remember the game though:

Tip: Since static defenses, such as Photon Cannons and Spine Crawlers, can be directed to target fire, you can set them to break down destructible rocks, freeing your army units to other duties.
