You'll need to invest in quite a few widow mines (2 supply each) to kill a huge flock. Also, wow yoda has only been playing HotS for 1 week. Amazing. | ||

Kinda like spider mines in BW, BOOM good bye 6-tank clump :I They already do friendly fire. Only unit they don't damage is other mines. | ||

The first reason Blizzard made the unit is to give factory something that anti air better than Thor. ;; | ||

Guess we'll see how it plays out in the coming days/ weeks. Yoda had a great hold against Ret's baneling bust, and he expanded behind it. Because he went for a baneling bust, Ret's tech and detection was behind, and thus he couldn't deal with mines very well. | ||

They can't just make mines not do damage to one specific unit. Maybe if they switch mines to ground only it would make Terran have to work a little harder against all air units since they already have marines and turrets that work very well anyways. | ||

With an aa warhound, WM's could be anti-ground only and 1 supply. | ||

Ohhhh, you care about lore. The only air units that Terran has problems with are massive air units. The mine only helps vs oracles and mutalisks. | ||

That and I just don't like Terran very much  It really wasn't, atleast the mines werent the reason for that, it was all in the hands of ret to waste the mine before the explosion, which he did. Then later on he wasn't careful and yoda was(I presume) incredibly lucky by killing all the slings without loosing the reapers. Remember also that the reapers were pretty important in the poke outside the natural of ret. | ||
