      Even if you know what's armored and what isn't, I imagine some players would still activate it anyway because it takes time to analyze your opponent's army every engagement. Are you gonna waste time, knowing your micro isn't great, looking to see if there are armored units? Plus risk not activating it because you missed some armored units? Probably a combination of that and thinking that the slowdown doesn't matter much if you're committing to an attack. Also, medivacs are armored so it wasn't completely pointless in this video? I imagine with an a-move they'll get attacked last, but more damage is more damage.

    I admire ZERGEON’s strategy. I used to do 2v2 with a friend, and our plan often was “Operation Bling Fountain” - my friend plays the game like an actual person, while I stockpiled resources and prepared to strike with as many banelings from as many nydus worms as possible.

    Could someone please explain to me the mechanics behind the mineral stealing of workers in the opponent's bases? Does it really have an impact or is it just trolling?

    • @taoofjester4113
      @taoofjester4113 10 місяців тому +4

      It slows down the mining process. From what I read online it isn't about stealing the minerals. Instead it causes an issue to how the units mine each patch and they shift to a different one. I think the disruption is fairly minor but at a high level of starcraft, every second is important when it comes to economy.

    • @cowking7987
      @cowking7987 10 місяців тому +3

      @@taoofjester4113that’s about right. In SC2, the most efficient way to mine is with 2 workers on each patch (3 offers slightly more minerals, but very little, and everything after 3 does nothing). Because of this, if the worker AI realizes it’s mining with a patch with two or more friends, it will path to another nearby mineral node with less workers on it. However, the AI cannot tell the difference between a fellow drone mining or an enemy probe causing mischief. So when the pro players bring a worker over, it is to make the enemy’s workers on a specific patch think they’re being inefficient and move to a different patch. This makes the enemy lose a tiny bit of mining time.
      So in conclusion, it’s very little overall denied mining, but like you said, every second counts in the early game
