Does it work with units that don't fly?

Yeah this is the same magic box from BW, except in BW you could keep them stacked a bit more and it was a little easier to do (in terms of what things you could use in the group).

Awesome find!

This is really old news. People tested this stuff a long long time ago. I don't know how long ago for sure, but Probably even around beta time.

I don't know why many people are treating this like new information or something.

I also recall larva or possibly zerglings or other units being tested, but I can't remember what the effects were.

Probably because it's undocumented. Sort of like how you don't seem to know much about it either.

I just tested this, and it seems that using buildings instead of overlords works just as well. So you can select your mutas and one spire instead of selecting an overlord.
EDIT: Just tested again, It seems I was wrong. T.T

It didn't seem to when I tried, I'll have to give it another go.


And why are people disregarding my suggestion about the phoenix: create a sim city so that it has a small walled in space, then warp in a single zealot and use that, I tested in and it works.

well it would be far away and break the magic box, your units would clump if they move, but you can achieve the same with an a click for ground units or right clicking on one of the units to clump them. So its not really practical.

Just tested. Phoenix group up much better with an observer added. Just make sure you don't do it when infestors come out!

Yeah, you're right, after further testing it seems I was wrong.

Take a page from bw strategy and trap your probe between plyons.
