Welcome to the fourth round of Super StarCraft Modders Brawl, the game where people create the most imba units possible, then duke it out in an epic free-for-all!

If you would like to participate, you must select one unit. You can modify any aspect of that unit, including grafting. You may also modify any projectiles or spells used by the unit. Additionally, summoner-type units may modify their summoned unit, but you may only have one type of summoned unit. Any turrets or Interceptors may also be modded. (Interceptors do not count towards the limit of one type of summoned unit.) You may use plugins if you have the knowledge to do so. Triggers may also be used to a limited extent.

All instant-kill spells are banned. This includes Mind Control, Spawn Broodlings, Consume, and so on. Additionally, the spell Optical Flare is also banned.

There will be an epic FFA on Sunday, May 3, at 6:30 PM EST. It would be appreciated if you submit your entries by 3:00 PM EST on May 2, but this is not necessary. (However, if you submit too close to the start of the battle, you may not be able to participate if we can't get your unit working for whatever reason or find it unbalanceable. You have been warned!) Please, don't sign up unless you intend to be at the battle.

Participants:
1) TassadarZeratul (Kakaru, with Wraiths as summoned units. I'm also cannibalizing most of the Space Platform sprites and Scanner Sweep)
2) ForTheSwarm (Defiler, with Broodlings as summoned units. Is also using Dark Swarm.)
3) IskatuMesk (Carrier, and is using Maelstrom)
4) New-.Hydrolist (Ultralisk, with Spider Mines as summoned units. Is also using Disruption Web, Hydralisk, Tank Mode turret, and SCV's lo? file.)
5) HailFire (Command Center, with Marines as summoned units. Is also using Goliath Turret and Alan Turret.)
6) Artanis186 (Edmund Duke, Duke Siege Mode, associated turrets. Is also using Plague and the Scout missile.)
7) Polaris (Ghost, and is using Unknown Techs 42 and 43.)
8) You, hopefully.

Gogogogogogogogogogogogogo!

We'll see.

Okay. But you need to pick a unit. Carrier?

Carrier it is. I have a graphic I was going to use in AO but realized I won't have a carrier to make out of it. So I'll use it for this.

I'll use maelstrom, too.

Defiler of doacks, I choose you!

Broodling doacks, I raep you!

(defiler, dark swarm, and broodlings if you can't tell)

Ultralisk. Siege Tank turret (Tank Mode). Hydralisk turret (hopefully). Distruption Web spell to summon: Spider Mine.
I will be modifying the SCV's LO_ file. Fair warning: I might be modifying Spider Mine's explosion ISCRIPT file, if at present does not satisfy my requirements.

Command Center, Comsat Sweep, Goliath Turret (normal & hero), Marine (summons).

Sorry, bud. Scanner Sweep's already taken. (I was dissatisfied with the homoerotic nature of my archon last game and am trying to make a non-gay goatfucker summoner this time.) I won't be using it next round, though.

There are other ways to do summoners, though. If you wanted to, you could make your CC build rines and give them 0 build cost and stuff. (They'd need a pretty long build time, though.)

@FTS, Hydro: Adding you to the participants list. Seems like there's a lot of summoners this time... This will be interesting.

Alternate idea: Take the ICC instead, make it build marines in mid-air; short build time, but give them a build cost, and make a trigger that periodically gives me resources.

So should I put you down for ICC/rines/gol turret?

Also, why ICC instead of regular CC?

I have no idea!

Either would work, really.

Butyeah, CC, rines, gol turrets

I'll also be doing quite a bit of weapons editing.

I'll be requiring the tank in this one.

Fair warning; Hydrolisk's using the normal siege tank's tank mode turret.

On another note, you (TZ) might want to make it a rule that all units are organic, so that spells are moar versatile.

Then tell him to switch to the Goliath Turret

I called the Siege Tank turret (Tank Mode) first. And, I participated in the last SSMB, whereas you did not even post in all of the previous ones.
I conclude that I have more of a stake on the turret than you do. If you would like to further this argument, please eat an infected zombie liver.

BTW: Please use the Goliath Turret. If you feel the need to complain, do not. Instead, just copy the Siege Tank turret over the Goliath Turret. Read the above paragraphs for justification on why I should not change.

Reminder: TZ, fix the list. There are two "5)'s".

EDIT3: IskatuMesk, was my SEKRIT CARIOR from SSMB3 SEKRIT CARIOR enough to be a SEKRIT CARIOR, or no?

It wasn't pink.


Also, I called the goliath turrets.

Just use Duke.

fiiiiiiiiiiiine.. jerk.

So what? No turrets for me? D:

DUKE

EDIT: And you can also turn other units into turrets pretty easy. a mini-mod I once made had an overlord using a corsair as a turret.
