This is exellent if he doesn't see you do it. And it can be perfect for scouting unit movement over that area. An overseer with your opponent's army would render this a quick waste of energy. | ||

Now you can just change Terrain graphic option to Low in game settings to make creep static | ||

I've heard of someone hitting at 5:55 It wouldn't work above the lowest levels of play anyway. You build really few probes, which means if you don't kill 3/4 of his workers you lose, and it's very hard since you don't get a stalker and he can scout forever. I think that that tip should be remove or replaced with a timing of a dt expand with initial stalker, which is usually viable. | ||

"543. (PvZ) Archons are cost efficient against Broodlings, since they can soak up broodling damage, deal AoE damage etc. [original]" Since broodlings cost 0-0, I'm pretty sure they're cost-efficient vs everything. My own contribution: In a situation where you have a lot of excess orbital command energy, mules can be used as forcefields to limit enemy movement. In TvT, you can call down a mule adjacent to an enemy tank line to cause friendly fire. You can also use a scan to gain vision of their tanks, to destroy tanks for free in an otherwise inaccessible location. | ||

If you give an SCV a build or move order that crosses that area right after calling down the MULE, the SCV will give you a warning/error message and will skip to its next task. This will occur most often when calling down a MULE and then ordering an SCV next to where it will land to build a depot behind the mineral line. | ||

I used to, since beta, press "e" then click, press "e" then click, press "e" then click, once for every mule I had the energy for. It's the same for forcefields, storms, fungle, scans, you can just holddown the keyboardkeys and then click where you want to cast the spell. It's way faster and easier that way  | ||

 .#71 has a typo: "version" should be "vision." | ||

This build/tip could be perfectly viable in a team game. Build order? | ||
