Yet when it was in the game, Phase Shift couldn't be used on your own troops. It seemed odd to me that Anti-Gravity worked on your own units, but Phase Shift didn't (cutting into its potential utility).

Someone told me that hunter-seeker can be used on friendly units. I haven't tested it so I don't know for sure. But if that's true then that really is weird and random on blizzard's behalf since when units run away from hunter-seekers they just hit the ground.

HKS decided to blot out the sun with mustaches.

Note the minimap - it has a limit on how many things it can display. Also note the mustaches crawling up walls.

By the way can you still do the stuff like in SC1 like shoot with tanks while it moves? I know you said you can't with the bikes, but what about tank/vikings?

Vikings can only face in a specific direction, so no, not sure about tanks.

I've tried it but it's not nearly as effective as sc1. Hit and run in general is much tougher to do. The reason you can't with hellions is because they have an intentional delay before they fire - it's not animation-related, it's a purposeful delay Blizzard put there.

TeamBZ FFA 1

This is a test of the dreamhost streaming capabilities with a big video. Lemme know how it works out for you.

For me the quality is ass and the sound is mangled.

I rather prefer either that you upload the video as a downloadable link or on Youtube.

EDIT : More or less for the same reasons as you mentioned.
