Edit: Also what do you mean it is invincible...if you can place it with a probe surely an attack move command should be able to attack it? | ||

An A move command in the general area will get your units to kill it. My video showing it off will be pretty good. I show off different angles ect. When I did it with sentries their beams disappeared while firing. | ||

I guess we just need to keep checking that area on our minimap- maybe send an early scout there if our opponents spawned somewhere else. | ||

Graphics card: Nvidia Geforce 580 GTX 1.5 GB Graphics settings: Ultra. Here is the video I made of it. I guess I'm late to the party but it works exactly like you'd think. only real difference between mine and joshy is I warp in a zealot and I also show units disappearing. no commentary. Quality is still processing | ||

wait so an opponent did this to you? Also, does that mean you can't attack it by targetting? (right click) But you can attack by a-click right? | ||

The unit itself and building completely not selectable ( besides the way Joshy did it ). You can hotkey the unit that you make disappear first though. | ||

it would be a lot better if it was in a position an opponent could get to in the early game, where a sneaky pylon would own. but u have to bust thru all those rocks and while it may be good for a bit of a "wtf" moment, its still easy to kill with a-move. seems like hiding a spire there would actually have more application than the pylon thing | ||

Yeah it's not a bug like the one in the op, but it's useful because from most natural angles you'll be looking you can't see it, and for whatever reason some players still use alt for health bars. :O | ||

Though, since this seems to be some sort of map building issue or something, I think it is safe to say that there may be more of these things on other maps. Let the searching commence. | ||

They'll be revealed because they have no nexus, and it'll appear on the minimap. Also someone posted a stream the other day where they found the pylon. It's not invisible, it's just way below the the ground. If you scroll down to a certain point you can actually see it really far away, and even click on it. | ||
