    Flying units focus enemies that can shoot back on them (In this case Dagoons), but because of spawn time they end up over enemy bunker. Kappa

      They should focus enemies that can shoot back on them that are in the range of the flying unit.

    Good tips for playing Dehaka. (Warning: Personal opinion incoming, please feel free to correct me. Btw this is for people that are trying to win, not the ones that are trying to do the meme and lose the game. You've been advised.)
    For upgrading Dehaka, see what you are up against. If there are any heroic units like Fenix's champions, go for Roar, Leap, and Healing. Then transition to +3 Armor at Level 5.
    If up against Tychus, don't even think about getting Devour. Then transition into See Above.
    If up against Nova with meme builds like tier 3, mass ghosts and holo, then get devour quickly since Dehaka can devour the Holo straight up. Then Roar and get Sense Invisible unit upgrade, then +3 Armor at level 6.
    If up against no heroic units, get Roar, Devour, and leap.
    Healing is kinda... There I guess. Didn't make that much difference from my experience.
    Roar is really good, like stupidly good. Upgrade it when you have the chance unless it's level 5 and 6.
    For me, the best opener is. Three wyrms, gas then Dehaka into six roaches and upgrade the roaches, then tier up. If your opponent is going for anti-armor like Nova Marauders or Siege Tanks, don't get Primal Igniters, otherwise, get 1 to 2 and upgrade it. After which you get to choose between Primal Hosts or Impalers, it really doesn't matter. If the opponent is going anti-armor, get the Hosts since your Roaches will get wrecked if you don't. Host's Locusts adds to the bulk to your frontline without having the Armored description. Otherwise, get impalers. Upgrade the Impalers immediately, Tenderize is stupidly good too. When you have 2-3 Impalers or 4-5 Hosts, then get the other. (Like if you have sufficient Impalers, get 4-5 Hosts. If you have 4-5 Hosts, get 2-3 Impalers.) Around the middle of that, gas again.
    In the late game, after you've done all that above, tier up and start to look towards units like Creeper Hosts, Ultras and Tyrannozor. Get one to two Creeper hosts. Upgrade then 2 Ultras, upgrade again. Then again more Ultras. Around 6 Ultras. (Since they're so cheap.) Get a Tyrannozor with Tyrant's Protection upgrade, then get the Barrage of Spikes upgrade. Tyrant's Protection is stupidly good with Primal Hosts since the Locusts benefit from Tyrant's Protection, the Frontline becomes really, really bulky and protects the squishy backline where the Impalers, Creeper Hosts, and Primal Hosts are. Keep adding onto the fuckfest with more of everything and the rest is yours to play with.
    I never really got that many gases, 2-3 is enough and 4 is kinda overkilling at that point. The wyrms will carry you through the early game where you're the weakest, they deal stupid amounts of damage that early and they have detection.
    NEVER EVER GO FOR RAVASAURS, MUTAS, AND GUARDIANS HOLY SHIT THEY'RE SO BAD. Ravasaur sucks though at first glance they're only 80 minerals and have the gene mutation trait. But counting on upgrades you might as well go for a 300 minerals unit at tier 1.
    Mutas... They're really useless for their costs and upgrades. dealing more damage when moving sounds great but you have no control over them on the battlefield. though they can resurrect, they'll just die again immediately. Did I mention their attack speed is really bad too... Like Mutas just suck.
    Guardians also fall into the category of sounding really good but is actually trash. Their default attack speed is really bad because they have that attack speed ramp up upgrade but it takes TIME to ramp up, so by the time they can deal massive damage, the frontline's already dead and they're immediately dead. They can only attack ground too so Phoenix and Devourer can kill them easily too. Unlike the Impalers which can burrow quickly and take out high priorities targets easily and quickly, Guardian's just felt short.
    As for Upgrades for Weapons and Armor, get them when you feel like you have a secure foothold on mid or just in a stalemate, or you have nothing else good to do. Always go for the Armor upgrade first though since it again makes your frontline bulkier.
    If you're up against air like Karax. Pray to God and hope that your teammates help you. Then delay the Impaler/Primal Hosts and go for Hydras, as I have said before, Mutas aren't a good option so Hydras with Upgrade is the only thing that's going for you in terms of anti-air. Good luck fight that bullshit.
    Conclusion on Dehaka: Fucking scary when fighting on the ground, but feels like an orgasm when fighting Dehaka in the air when fighting him.
    Shit, I wrote an essay.

  • @powergaminggg8730
    @powergaminggg8730 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    If you wish to improve a bit (and anyone watching), some advises.
    Place your units in good formation but as forward as possible, most of the times this matters a lot - makes your unit able to get to the middle a second or more faster, thus taking control of the middle and block the enemy for that, also get faster as reinforcements to surviving ally units.
    As long as you control the middle and win your fights, investing in next gas is good.
    Few cheap melee units are always a good investment, for Commander Dehaka - his Primal Zerglings as they are cheap and durable - even 3-4 is good enough, because aside from shots - they also trigger enemy abilities which won't be used on your other units (or Dehaka) and this includes abilities which can deal 150-200 damage.
    Now on Dehaka in particular, his Devour and his AoE scream are his strongest abilities by far, so investing all your points into them is great, the scream at level 2 and 3 are exceptionally powerful, while manual devour helps you clear the strongest enemy unit, which is crucial in gaining advantage, especially strong when the units are small in numbers.
    You can max scream out (as the most efficient ability) right at level 6 and that's -2 armor for all enemies for the duration. That gives a lot of edge to your forces.
    His Worms and Deep Tunnel should not be rushed, nor used like that. If you wish them as Detectors - place them one after another, so the detection duration is extended to it's maximum and if you like to use them for their damage, place them on the flank, they will start attacking their closest unit and as all of them focus on one, they will start killing units much faster, which will lessen the enemy DPS on your (or your ally's) units. As you place them in the middle they do not focus a single unit and if some healer is presented may even negate their DPS completely.
    Dehaka's Mutalisks are one of the worse cost-efficient units out there, they are decent in clearing air enemies, in particular different void rays, but aside from that are too expensive and deal too little damage. Kerrigan and Abathur's are much more fearsome.
    Attack/Defend upgrades in Sudden Strike are not worth to invest in a rush, you need to hit critical mass of units to be efficient. Dehaka's 300/450/600 cost for the attack upgrade is very costly and basically means that +1 is the same cost of a single Mutalisk, so you need to have quite a few units before it became better then having a single Mutalisk more, especially if you are going for only Mutas.

    • @XenoEagle
      @XenoEagle 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      hmm i will side with mm "not that effective build" also. The protoss guy with mass archons and reavers were the one who dealt a lot of damage to the mass void rays, etc. [like at 24:40]. And killing 2 waves, definitely not. It was more of a mix up of him and mass archon guy fighting 2 waves. Then he died to the protoss usually, or almost died before terran wave arrived to help. Sure he should be fighting Nova like at 5:35 he is fighting the stalkers then Nova units appear which should be his enemies. In the end tho, it got mixed up, and its 3v3 anyway and ye, he is kinda being countered. It's not like only his wave can counter him.
      Of course in the end they all did basically the same damage, but his part in the fight didn't seem any bigger to me than the other guys. If not for those archons and reavers it probably would have been gg. Also i think those creeper host are almost useless. If anything he could have just spammed primal hydras or impalers even.
      Sooo ye, you know it just he kinda threw it into the face with saying how his wave is so powerful blabla the whole time, and then you think about it "ahaaa, sure thing dude". Its not even a problem, more like you sitting next to a guy and seeing him being killed by AA "mmmhm, ye, they are not countering you at all :I". Dehaka is a strong commander in general, this was nothing special.
