Might have been asked in this thread, but:

When you abduct a warp prism that is warping in units, you cancel the warp ins, right?


Yep. I'm pretty sure that's been a thing since WoL right? (HuK just had that done to him like five times in one game in the MLG MvP Tourney just recently I believe)

How can it be a thing since WoL? o.O
"Abduct" is this pull ability from the viper. No viper in WoL.

But if that works, then nice


Lol, wow.... I totally misread that and my brain decided to talk about Neural Parasite, not abduct. But yes. Abduct screws up warpins.

If you put a widow mine next to a turret providing detection does it attack hallucinated units? Reason i ask is because detection seems to lower the attack priority of hallucinated units below everything else.

With the widow mines missile mechanic, what happens if you blink a stalker after it launches? Could blink stalkers or chargelots "drag" the mines into the terran army?

Only because you play as unranked does not mean that they play unranked too because you can get ranked and unranked players as opponents.

You may want to test WoL tactics and see how they fare against HotS ones. Simple as that.
Things like : Will the MsC arrive in time to deal with a 7rr? If a T rushes to widow mines (which will cause a lot of trouble later), is he putting himself into a situation where he is susceptible to 4gate?

Are you kidding me? Most of new units are far in tech tree, and cannot be produced in time to defend 4gate. Its not like Sherlock only can figure out that.

Widow mine, far in the tech tree? MsC, far in the tech tree? Really? I see... You're the one that wrote that guide about reaching grandmaster by 6-pooling

I do agree that a proxy 2-gate for example requires a special response that will surely NOT incorporate the new units, but a 4-gate is supposed to be stoppable by the MsC. Supposedly. Not that it works so great (I saw TT1 die to this numerous times...)

Help me to remember - Replay download & watch directly inside Battle.net client ?
There is a lot of of battle.net features discutions with the #saveHoTS and HoTS Beta.

But I remember something Blizzard tried after a (korean I believe ?) event. You could watch the final replay within Battle.net (home screen, where there are news), all you had to do was to click on "Game 1" and Battle.net downloaded the replay automatically and started it.

I'm pretty sure they only did this once, but I can't remember which event, and I don't have any screenshot or proof, that's why I need you help. It was arround 1 year ago I believe ? Maybe less...

Does anyone remember ?

What does it mean ? It means Blizzard already created this feature, and they could add a "Videos" menu next to "Starcraft" and "Arcade" where you would be able to watch best games of Starcraft, and why not uploading your own replay ? It would be awesome. I hate to download replays from other websites because I don't know what to download, where to look etc etc.

Yep, that did happen, with MLG Columbus I think.

Has Blizzard said anything about release? I remember a handful of people speculating that the timing of the beta might put release around Christmas. This worries me a lot. I think they have so much more work they still need to do. I would feel a lot better if it we something like summer or even fall 2013. Have they thrown out any hints?

I thought, overlord creep is unlocked with evo, but HotS still requires lair? Was that changed back or never put to the evo-chamber in the first place?

I have a question about the technical side of HotS:

How is the performance? Do you get more/less fps compared to WoL?

Has some of the code been reworked for better parallelisation, in other words: are more than 2 CPU cores being used?


I remember someone official talking about this some time ago (1 year+) and the talk about updated physics in the current patchnotes reminded me of it.

About the same performance-wise. I do get quite a bit of frame dropping at the beginning of matches though and for the first minute or so, but it's not every match.

No clue about core usage or code updates though.

When I play unranked games is my opponent completely random, meaning they could be of any skill level?
Or does it take into account my ranked MMR?
