I'm unable to change my race decals. It highlights the new one I've selected in the menus but in game it stays on the default decal. Is this happening to anyone else?

It is a known bug

Thanks, I thought it might just me after I saw the decals in tl attack.

Can you still get a beta key if you pre-order HotS from Amazon/Gamestop?

I pre-ordered the game on Friday, and was able to redeem a beta key, but my friend noticed that Amazon.com no longer lists their special promotion on the Heart of the Swarm page. He wanted to get a beta key, but he doesn't want to chance pre-ordering it from Amazon, if he could get the beta key elsewhere. I've heard that Gamestop is an option, but I haven't seen anything on their website that says they're handing out beta keys (even on Friday).
It's unsafe to leave loaded guns in exploding rooms.

If I have either WoL of HotS client open, I cannot open the other client. I like switching between playing each game. But say I have HotS client open, I click WoL, then I click play, and it just fullscreens my HotS client and nothing happens. What's this about?

I don't know how other people are getting their beta keys 1 or 2 days before me. I still haven't gotten mine in an email. I'll just wait the entire day before checking my email again. It's supposed to arrive today.


How long has it been taking people? Where did you order from?

I ordered from amazon (via TL link) and it has been 2 days and they didn't email me yet.

Did you check your spam box?

Does blind effect colossi?

Does fungal stop mo-core mass teleport?

Does a widow mine kill creep tumors?

Cloud effects collosus, it can only shoot under itself
Fungal doesn't prevent or cancel teleport
Cloud effects hellbats reducing the range from 2 to melee, splash damage still applies

I want to say a bit more.

Colossus and other units will auto-leave blinding cloud. Cloud is useful only against immobile enemies.

Fungal does not prevent using any abilities. Only blink and toggle-modes (burrow, siege deploy, etc) is blocked by fungal.

After hellbats it also affects Ultralisks. They have 1 range, and with melee range they will stuck more around zerglings.


Does a widow mine kill creep tumors?

Widow Mine can damage buildings with 40 dmg splash. It's a very small chance that widow mine will hit creep tumor nearby with that atack.

Did they change how apm are being counted again? I haven't played many games in WoL lately and in my first game in HotS I had higher apm than ever before. And it certainly didn't feel like it.


Yes they changed it... I'm playing with 400 apm some games. Dunno how exactly they changed it but they tuned it wayyy up. My guess it's peak or without editing out redundancy...whatever it is it isnt apm ^^


Maybe it's counting real world APM? So sc2 APM *1.36?


Nah, it's been 2x greater between in-game and out-of-game reporting. So it's more than just factoring in real-time.

Oh and I thought I have faster hands (400apm spamming lol)
How about epm? I think it's similar to my wol but I am playing all race now, so not sure if it's just heightened up just so I feel better lol

Is it possible to disallow an army from forming a perfect phalanx when a move command is issued?

I assume my question wasn't simple enough to warrant a simple answer?

I did not wish to make a separate thread for this, hence I asked the question here.

It's a hugely contested topic within the SC2 community.

Blizzard has opted for clumpy unit movement, and that is the final word from them.

I see. Thank you for answering. I was hoping that not all units would move in phalanx formation in HoTS at least. Oh well, I'll let someone more experienced contest the cons and pros of phalanxes.

There are no automatic formations in sc2. When you command your units to move to a certain point, all of your units will try to get to that point, leading them to naturally clump up (which is nothing at all like a phalanx), which is most apparent in air units due to the lack of collission. You can lessen this effect somewhat by telling your units to move to a far away point, which means they will converge more slowly and not clump up as much, but this requires your units to already be spread out somewhat in the first place. This technique is most commonly used with mutalisks to avoid splash damage (and has been misleadingly termed "magic box", even though there is no box, magic or otherwise and it works completely different from the magic box in sc1).
