Cool, but in that stage of game, i think i rather focus on my macro more instead of trying to calculate times that wont matter cause every scenario is diff. Drop, focus target and if it kills great, if not retreat seems to work or micro to kill the target. Dont see how knowing how many units it takes to kill certain buildings matter that much.
Im only high master so it might not be that important in my skill level. Thanks for stats though |

Oh yeah macro is much more imp than this, but stats are always fun to know. |

| This is really nice for high level or pro players if you for example do a 4 Marauder drop and want to kill a Forge, and you know how long it takes for, say, a Colossus to get there and stop you so you know if you can kill the Forge or if you have to settle for a Pylon, or if you have to run. |

I do find this interesting, especially in PvZ. It's a good resource to know how many zealots I need to warp in to kill a hatchery in as quick time as possible. Would be great if this could be expanded to include the effect of upgrades or terran building armor upgrades (though I can't remember the last time I ever had a game where this was upgraded)
Or I could just drop marauders because I hear they're good.Last edit: 2012-06-07 09:50:33 |

| Wouldn't it be better to create a macro that lets the user put in how many units of x they want to then it spits out the time it takes to kill x unit? Thinking about marine and marauder in medivacs, and all the possible combinations, I can't imagine how long it would say, 8 marines and 2 marauders (2 medis each with 3 marine 1 marauder) to kill certain buildings. |

Yes that one is stupid and should prob remove it, the time is actually the multiple of bane you need more to kill the unit. Again I will do that the maths for that one later and then test it.
Sorry for the confusion. |

Well that's not the point I'm trying to make with these stats.
What I was hoping to get out of these STATS is more of an awareness that if a player wants to take out a particular building, how long does he need to focus at the particular drop, wrap in or run by.
I definitively don't expect the player to calculate any of the logistics in middle of a game.
But if you want that can be easily done.Last edit: 2012-06-07 11:17:00 |

Hey if I ever see that upgrade being researched I will add to this list like their is no tomorrow. |

| It can be pretty handy to know off-hand how many banelings it takes to kill a building. Learning the hard way, I remember a lot of times where I threw away a lead trying to bust a wall just to fall one baneling short and have a repair go down or a last moment forcefield while my lings were trying to finish something off. |
