Welcome to the third round of Super StarCraft Modders Brawl! In this competition, you design a single modded unit, and then we have an epic FFA with them. You will have two weeks to design your unit. The contest will be at 6:30 (Eastern Standard Time), on Sunday, April 12. (AND DON'T MISS THE BATTLE, PEOPLE. RAWR.)

Participants and their units:
TassadarZeratul: Archon (and has called Scanner Sweep)
ForTheSwarm: Queen (and has called Broodlings, Goliath Turret, and Recall)
HailFire: Marine
A_of-s_t: Larva
New-/Hydrolisk: Carrier
You, hopefully.

Unlike the last two SSMB competitions, there will be much more freedom in designing your unit. You can do whatever you want with it, including grafting. (ForTheSwarm and I will balance all units before the contest.) Also, you can modify any related units, such as turrets, Interceptors, Scarabs, or spawned units (eg. Dweb, Dswarm, Broodlings, Scanner Sweeps, or Spider Mines).

Note that all insta-kill spells (Spawn Broodlings, Mind Control, and Consume come to mind) are banned, as is Optical Flare. (Exception: If you can figure out a way to make Spawn Broodlings work without one-shotting your enemies, you can use it.)

The only other real rule is that you can't intentionally try to hit the image/sprite max.

Now. Ladies, gentlemen, androgynous beings, killer kows, or whatever: GOGOGOGOGO!

I choose the Carrier + Interceptors.

Okay. I expect to see some epic iscripting, Mesk. <3

Oh. Just to make this clear. You can do ANYTHING with your unit. This includes grafting/EXE edits.

I don't use firegraft so I'll just be making it fancy otherwise.

Okay.

Oh, should I make your Interceptors insta-build?

probably

Greater freedom for modding + hamachi to sidestep port issues = profit?

I'll join up again, hook me up with the Marine.

Done.

Also. I'm going to be using Scanner Sweep for something. Just warning you.

EDIT: ForTheSwarm has selected the Zerg Queen in a PM.

I call broodlings and recall lulz.

epic fun with exe edits shall ensue.

Hey, FTS... You know the Queen can't be given an attack, right? It only attacks Command Centers, even if you give it a weapon.

EDIT: According to FTS, you can give Queens turrets that attack normally, so disregard this post.

Dibs on Hunter Killer.

Also, I'm gonna fail epically =P

EDIT: Can I call Lockdown, too? Oh, and Optical Flare, but I won't use the blinding effect.

Sure. But what are you going to use Optical Flare for?

A general attack spell. I just thought seeing as we're not using the blind ability, it'd be free to mod into other things.

Also, I think we should be able to use triggers. Anyone agree?

Always.

Remove all Any Unit for Foes at Anywhere.
Preserve Trigger.


^my only trigger

/sarcasm

Actually, whatever. You can do triggers.

@above: BUT NOT CHEATING TRIGGERS LIKE THAT

WIN.

I call goliath turret for a turret. (i can use something else if someone wants goliath)
I also call broodlings (the unit) and Recall.

I call maelstrom and lockdown.

Oh, I want Nydus Canal, too.

If you want, have Optical Flare back, I found a better idea.

Oh, guys, only call spells if you intend to mod them... (Mesk, Magicide, do you intend to mod the spells you called? If not, un-call them.)

EDIT: @Magicide: Nydus canal? o.o What for? (But I'll give it to you anyway.)
