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.


Bonus points for thinking that up though, hadn't even considered that. Only question I got wrong too. I figured from the question phrasing that there was at least 1 detector psionic, which I assumed was the observer, and I knew none of the others weren't. Tricky tricky.

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. -.-




HP usually stands for hit points = how many hits something can take before dying.

Got most of them right, around 3/4. Still some I didn't know, I thought Overseers where psionic.

What about unique air units? In the Editor Buildings and Units are under the same tab for SC2, techincally you could count flying buildings as unique air units and then terran would have the most

Didn't think of Zealot charge, that was clever ^^

Only 3 wrong. Thought overseers were psionic, didn't know observers had 20 shields (thought interceptors had pretty damn low shields), and I didn't think about counting Warp Prisms and Observers as air units for some reason >_>

Question 5 is dumb. When calculating hitpoints, I imagine most people add the shields to the hull for Protoss, since 1 point of shields literally equals 1 point of hull.

That's why you go "Hey, if he's calculating shields as HP, it's C, but if he's calculating only HP as HP (as the question states), it's A!".

I just assumed he wasn't calculating shields, since he didn't mention them at all.

Blizzard defines HP as just the red number without the shields. So whether it's hit points or health points, it is just the red number. Here's a quote from blizzard's strategy guide "Note that when Protoss units are Plagued, their shields are unaffected--only their HP are reduced. "

also infestors with fungal could work with that definition. I also got it wrong because i figured overseers were psionic.


On the last question, it says there are 7 protoss air units. There are void rays, pheonix, carriers, observers, warp prism, and mothership. What am I missing?

I actually thought overseers were psionic (obviously they are obsevers)... Being a high master zerg this obviously makes me a patchzerg

It made me think of a bonus question though: Are there more psionic energy-units or non-psionic energy-units?
Extra-bonus: How many structures have energy?

Answer:
+ Show Spoiler +

There are 6 psionic energy-units: HT, Mothership, Sentry, Ghost, Infestor and Queen (all psionic units have energy)
There are 7 non-psionic energy-units! Raven, Phoenix, Banshee, BC, Medivac, Thor and Overseer. Interestingly five of them are terran.
Bonus: There are three structures with energy: OC, Nexus and PDD.

Yeah, he mentioned earlier in the thread he counted the interceptor. Not that it matters of course, Protoss still has most.
