it's super difficult, and as zerg I always have trouble to split hydras while tons of banelings are coming. But in TvZ it's a skill you need to get, especially with bio-play | ||

I have no Idea how to deal with a group of banelings coming in to my marines with marauders, medivacs and mines. Furthermore, the idea here is how to defend against incoming baneling ball while you are on the move, obviously if you can set up defence you can get tanks set up, widow mines borrowed, army stimmed in time and raven anti-armor missile launched on the banelings before stimmed army, tanks and widow mine shots attack baneling group. However in reality when terran force is moving forward and sees on screen baneling ball incoming on attack move it takes time for tanks to siege, widow mines to borrow and raven needs to be micro-ed to shoot with clicks also stim needs to be pressed with clicks. All of these things take a few seconds and thats just enough time for baneling group to quickly attack and take out almost all units terran holds. Has anyone tested how raven anti-armor missile would affect incoming baneling group ? Maybe thats the answer ? Get raven anti-armor missile in to them and then stim to kill them quickly ? Any other strategies ? | ||

bio vs banelings is one of the oldest unit interactions and it works pretty well. similarly, as a zerg player i could complain that 8 marines under a medivac in a mineral line requires more micro for zerg to defend, but it would be a silly complaint because that's just how ranged vs melee works. | ||

Maybe anyone would like to make a short video using dekstop capture mode on OBS using microphone ? Against banelings? you literally just stim them the opposite direction and start making boxes to spread them apart.. like say you scan ahead and theres a bunch of banes coming you stim back grab half the units move it to the left then cut that half into half with another box and do the same and you just keep cutting your units in half spreading them out until they are in tinier and tinier groups. Vs other units like Zealots and Zerglings you kite. Meaning you run back shoot, as the animation for firing goes off move back again then shoot again it should be a quick constant repeated action. Don't kite banelings if you need to practice splitting go play Marine Split Challenge. If you need to practice kiting open up the legacy of the void unit tester game and grab 2 marines with stim and 2 zealots with +3 armor then spread the zealots apart and have them on hold. One Marine will constantly shoot the zealot the other is the one you practice shooting and moving with the idea is to try to kill the zealot at the same time as the one standing still. | ||
