So reapers can jump up and down cliffs. But since there is going to be 4 (?) levels of elevation in the game, you can have cliffs that are 2, or even 3 levels high. Can reapers go over those? If they can't that would introduce some limits to them, and something map-makers can use... Just curious.

I have no idea, but this sounds really interesting.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

No, they can only jump one level at a Time, that was in a Q&A once. But ARE there any Maps with more than 2 levels right now anyway?

No, they can only go one level, but I would be interested in seeing maps that have 2+ level jumps.

Yes. The current ladder maps feature several levels. For instance I know on Metalopolis you can't jump into the enemy base from most sides, you must first go up the ramp that leads to the enemy natural expo and then hop up into their base from that level.

I think you mean Shakuras Plateau, as you can jump into mains from almost every spot on Metalopolis.

You're right. I just went and checked. I could have sworn it was the map on roof tops but I guess I'm just retarded.

The problem with this is by the time you have enough pylons to wall the area off the significant reaper harass would be over. Also, if they could get vision up the cliff reapers do 40 damage to buildings so your pylons would get sniped.

For colossi i have never seen them used to harass, by that point in the game you should be able to destroy them without much effort.

Theoretically, if you surrounded the whole perimeter of your base with pylons on the edge of the cliffs, would reapers/colossus still be able to go up?

If there is more than 1 lvl the reapers can't go that high. However, if there is a lvl 2 elevation and an lvl 1 elevation right next to it, the reaper can go up lvl 1 and then 2 lvl 2.
Hope is the first step on the road to dissapointment

No, but they have the nydus, just need vision with an overlord and zerg can plant it anywhere

Reaper and Colossus can only traverse single elevation differences. Stalkers however can blink up and down more if they have vision.
