but the stats on carrier intercepters
they will launch at range 8
they will not return back to their carrier until range 12.
they dont outrange the siege tank but it's close enough.

Meanwhile, carrier does 80 DPS within the 1st seconds. We all know how important it is for a unit to front load their DPS instead of after load. I predict carrier will finally be used. | ||

It takes 1.5 seconds to launch all interceptors(with the upgrade). | ||

What matters is if the line from the Carrier to the BC is parallel to the line from the tank to the zealot. Since the Carrier is targeting the BC and the Tank can only target the Zealot, the distance is probably the same | ||

I agree OP, I would love to see some cliff carrier micro like you'd see in BW and the Range of the Carrier in SC2 has not quite been exploited as much as it was in BW, not yet anyway you would love to see some carriers get roflstomped by vikings/corrupters? remember in SC:BW where the air vs air units sucked- this isn't like that. you will never see carrier prevelant games because AA from Air is too good in this game. Have you ever even watched/played BW? | ||

Overall though, I'd say it's not really practical to be doing any attacks over 11 range, in fact I think it might be a possibility that targets can't be initiated past range 8 even if a dummy target less than or equal to range 8 is initiated before hand. | ||

Carriers are an awesome unit. They do insane damage, and scale the best with upgrades. By the time you're building carriers you'll have enough resources to followup with High Templars with Storm...which destroys any unit that can possibly contest Carriers. | ||
