Thanks for all the feedback in editing the questions. I'll keep this in mind when I do my next quiz.

Oh, I've got one, what unit/structure has the highest energy regen rate?
+ Show Spoiler +
It's the Point defense drone with almost double the energy regen of any other unit/structures (which as far as I know all have the same rate).

Change that word to created. You can't refer to non-zerg units as spawned.


yes you can. to spawn is a word used in gaming to mean created, built, appear and a host of other words. Spawn point sound familiar? respawn?

Questions I got wrong:
1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 10, 13, 19

12 and 22 I answered right, but for the wrong reasons. (Thought that Observer and Overseer were Psionic Detectors and apparently completely miscounted the air units of the races.)

So I basically got 12/22 correct. Pretty bad.

3 wrong, make some harder ones!



Please don't accuse them of being wrong so fast without doing some research.

The Mothership has 350 health and 350 shields. I asked which unit had the most health and the mothership has only 350 health, not 700.


Meh, technically you're wrong. According to Liquipedia, it's called "hitpoints" and plasma shields, not "health" and plasma shields.

You're making a trick question and it kind of backfired.

Mothership: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Mothership_(Wings_of_Liberty)

Hitpoints (not "health", per se): http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/index.php?title=File:Icon_Hitpoints.png&filetimestamp=20100213175646

Furthermore, if you look here: "Terran SCVs have 5 more health than the other workers" ~http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/SCV then this implies that plasma shields are included in the overall health sum of a unit. Hitpoints + plasma shields = health for a unit.

So fix #5 please. Motherships have 700 health: 350 hitpoints + 350 plasma shields.


I think that's stupid. It's his quiz, he doesn't have to fix it, so please stop being so demanding. Also I agree with him, mothership has 350hp just as archon has 10hp. Every caster says archon's have 10hp and 350shield. hp = health points = health.

Anyways, enjoy the quiz, and don't argue stupid shit. -.-


I think you misunderstand hit points (not health points... what?) and plasma shields. And that's fine, you can call them whatever you want colloquially, but when the title of the quiz is "You Don't Know SC2 Units", it's important he doesn't mess them up either. His wording was actually explicitly wrong. It wasn't really up for discussion. Health is hit points + shields. Total life of a unit. Him not changing it would mean that the question would remain incorrect, as I showed via Liquipedia. There's a difference between making a tricky question, and making a question that actually uses the wrong terminology. And he happily fixed the question, so there's not really any point in whining about people correcting questions (which is justified and happens every time someone comes up with a quiz like this).

I'm not sayin' Liquipedia's wrong, but the term "hit points" isn't a stat in SC2 unit data. It's Life, Shield and Energy. If you're going to nitpick the difference between health and hit points, might as well nitpick the difference between both of those and Life since Life is the term that can be said to be officially correct.

I'd rather not have this thread go to waste with an argument on definitions, but for my 2c, I think Buttered is right. HP is pretty much used interchangeably for hitpoints/health depending on what game you're playing regardless (sorry DarkPlasmaBall).

Hell if you want proof they're practically equivalent. Look at Quake which had the Megahealth, according to the manual it gave you "+100 additional hit points" even though it was named the Megahealth not the Megahitpoints.

As for liquipedia, it wouldn't surprise me at all if you'll find inconsistent terminology unless there's a page with standardized terminology to be used throughout the wiki.

Edit: Found it, well that took 2 seconds.

If you look under the mothership page you linked DarkPlasmaBall and look under Patch 2, it'll say "The health was decreased from 400 to 350". Implying that Health does not include Shields. So I'd find another source.

Hell, where's Pholon. Pholon, make us a page listing all the standard terminology to be used and referee.

Some nice questions there! Got almot all correct (never knew the melee range is more than 0 )

I hope a future set of questions will include which unit has the highes dps per supply in game, with or withouth bonuses (I think its either Zerling or DT). Atleast some people will stop saying its the Carrier) 3 lings kill a Nexus faster than a Carrier with 8 inteceptors!

Question 12
There is only 1 unit that is both Psionic and a Detector.
A) True
B) False

Answer 12
There are no units that are both Psionic and a Detector.


Ghosts are rather makeshift detectors with EMP, but I suppose they aren't a "true" detector.

If you were to grant the Ghost the power of a psionic detector then the question is still right because you would also have to grant the infestor that same right.
