So I saw this video by HuskyStarcraft... and I thought "I have got to try this out." What do you guys think on it's viability?





None.

This could work, but the Protoss was terrible. Protoss should have scouted better, and he didn't get any warpgate technology or any robotics facility. I think an immortal + probe pull probably could have stopped this push, or just lots of stalkers maybe. You could try it, but proxies are always dangerous, especially if you get scouted.



None.

Lol. No this isn't viable in higher level play.

Although, I was thor rushed along with a ton of marines and a couple SCVs the other, and it hit pretty fast. I don't recall if he had a proxy factory though, and I fast expanded, and I almost held it off, and I accidentally made a really bad micro mistake about a minute before the thor showed up.

Thor rushes are great vs bad players, but not vs decent players.



None.

Looks viable with good worker micro. His build was not super-efficient too, he could've had that a good bit sooner. Seems like the timing is perfect for a 4-gate counter and reminds me of the Odin mission, haha. =)



None.

Ultraviolet -- Yeah, I suppose there's something to that

Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless

Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value

Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius

Ultraviolet -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: I almost had a heart attack just thinking about calculating all the offsets it would take to do that kind of stuff
With the modern EUD editors, I don't think they're calculating nearly as many offsets as you might imagine. Still some fancy ass work that I'm sure took a ton of effort

Oh_Man -- definitely EUD

Vrael -- that is insane
[2024-5-05. : 9:35 pm]
Vrael -- damn is that all EUD effects?
