Hellions are good against hellbats because they are very mobile, ForGG developped this strategy to counter hellbats when they were popular. However, when the opponent gets more than 3 tanks, it becomes a disaster as we have seen in his game vs MMA at DH Bucharest.

I mean when hellions lose their utility IMO it is good idea to just get transformation servos and transform that ridiculous mass of hellions into hellbats.

Ah yes, it would be a giant barbecue. But I think ForGG loves hellions only vs Protoss.
