How does the + attack matter for this really? Note that carapace and attack upgrades cancel eachother out for the most part so the 'focus' ability of both is equal, only the bounce damage is worse for the attack upgrade player. That is not a reason to take some sort of other approach to micro though..

I am not an expert on it, i only read about it that in viewer numbers targeting actualy matters with +1.

I would love if Leenock went drops after this quick OL speed. It's so much easier to go drops unnoticed if you've gotten the speed beforehand.

I know, still thought it depends all on the first attack, as I have been testing it a lot. As far as I remember with my testings, last bounce didn't change at all, but I could be wrong as I could easily mess up with my testings.

Huh, interesting. I've just been going by the liquipedia article, but it could be wrong / misleading. Would be nice for it to be cleared up for good. Although there are more important things in the world to worry about.
