Ehhhh, Drewbie drops are named after drewbie Sure, but as far as I know, drewbie didn't go around saying, "hey guys, here's a trick I use, you should name it after me." It happened naturally. IMO there's just something a little off about consciously angling to get people to name shit after you. If it happens, it happens, great. If not, who cares? You still made a cool trick (and I do admit that its a nifty trick). | ||

It would work well in distracting zerglings though because often times they are A moved and will spend precious time surrounding the marauders. It is a nice trick that would be worth trying because as shown in your replays it will catch some opponents off guards if they are playing lazy. It can punish your opponents by magnifying any skill disparity that exists in the match up. Though it can also punish you because you are wasting the healing from the medivacs but when it comes to banelings versus marines the healing is more or less negligible. In general I would avoid naming tricks after yourself, if you deserve the honor the community will do it for you. | ||

I suggest that this thread be closed as the trick being given isn't useful at all and we can see a bit of flaming going on. nah...at least it has SOME use. thats more than can be said for a lot of the threads here. and who cares if there's a little flaming? i don't think anyone has crossed a line. | ||

Edit: This is time spent with which the marauders aren't doing damage or slowing the zerg's units if you had chosen to upgrade concussive shells. It is a trade off, in some situations where you are marine heavy and your marauders are more or less meant to be meatbags it is a good idea. In other situations it is a bad idea. Also not all marauders need to be dropped this way, some could be in the ball and others being dropped to soak up banelings (if allowed to) or to distract the zerglings while the main ball of MM is firing. | ||

This made my day, lol. And to the OP, it's good that you shared that. I'm sure there are a lot of low level players on TL who are probably unaware of these little micro tricks that one can do. But um... going around and asking people to name small micro maneuvers after you isn't so humble.... | ||

Basically i just don't understand why you would want to keep your medivacs out of position and healing range of your army.... Why don't people get temp-banned for this kind of stuff? I could go to the b.net forums for trash posts. User was warned for this post | ||

EDIT- OOOO nm i understand your post after 2-3 more readings. "Im pretty sure most Zerg just move their banelings, not A-move them, so this Dropping would do nothing but add another right click from the Z player and would actually not do anything....and zerg are awsome (i added that part). Apologies for the misunderstanding. But i agree... get famous the old fashioned way, give a celebrity a blowjob and then threaten to tell their wife/fans. Or like someone else said... win some tournaments, become recognizable and then just start making up terms with your name in them. | ||
