"Vampiric healing" is a generalized term to "life steal on hit". It sums up what it does nicely: Dealing damage, healing yourself. Like a Vampire drinking blood.
@@_H_aruu96 Yes edit: Yes as of last time I was on, which was a few nights ago. I don't wanna say yes and find out they changed it like last night or something =P
Kerrigan zergl8ngs are amazing. Put them in vertical lines to the far sides. They will flank from the sides after middle attracts attention. Once you are the even a little zergl8ngs make amazing difference because they can remove armor from everything they hit.
I assume attack speed stacks additively like in WC3, which would mean that the more you have the less effective gaining more is. So since the Hydras already have +50% (+10%) attack speed they are affected less than a unit with no attack speed bonus. E.g. a Hydra will go from 100% +50%+10%=160% to 160%+8%+33%=201% which is an increase of 201%/150%-100% = ~26%. In comparison to a unit with no bonus; 100%+33%+8% = 141%, an increase of 41%. So units with no inherit attack speed buff would get 41% more dps while the Hydra just gets 26% more (on creep and with the buff). Just figured I'd mention it since you talked about how much the attack speed helped. What actually helps the Hydras a lot is the +1 dmg since they attack so incredibly fast. Also just wanted to thank you for playing Direct Strike, been binge watching all your games and now have to wait for every new episode, sadly there doesn't seem to be any other good videos of Direct Strike on other channels.
@@skyacaniadev2229 Tried to look it up and there is surprisingly little information about it. There is no info on the wiki, and on forum posts some claim it is additive, others multiplicative and then some say that it's both. That e.g. Rattlesnakes’ AS buff and Malignant Creep are multiplicative after all additive buffs, in which case my math would be off.
@@5illyMe Of course, Blizzard hide their source code well enough. Also, this scenario is rare (if not impossbile) in PvP, so nobody really cares. Though we can simply calculate based on the given attack interval (if that is shown correct).
Hey Incursus, if you made a Blaze and put him in the back line, get the boosted shield. Clear your wave and he will be in the front line by then. He'll tank some/most of the alpha strikes. I know you mentioned Blaze and Boswell, but getting at least one Blaze and a couple Boswells, you'll pretty much win with the number of Rattlesnakes you have. Blaze would help you eat through his zealots, too, so that Rattlesnake can focus on the annihilators. Blaze's oil spill also slows down the normal attacks so that they don't eat through your armored guys. It's their auto-attacks on top of the barrages that are eating your Rattlesnakes. Loving your vids :D
25:50 Also the Tychus reaper, forgetting his name at the moment but his passive counters annihiliator spam. Sirius can also bait that Annihiliator ability if he prematurely throws his turret out.
@@astupidlylongnamethatstoolong It's mostly to bait the ability out, Sirius is better since he can just toss the turret whenever player wants, while Sam is only useful if you're facing Karax wave with no interuptions so he can get the ability shot at him, go invincible and take no damage while rest of the gang gets close.
@@majormajorasic Which you dont want to waste minerals to do just that. If the Karax catches on, he can choose to stagger or get immortals that trigger the bait and have the actual karax beam wave to do job.
@@majormajorasic I know this is late, but why the fuck do you wanna get sam with 375 hp to tank for the annihilators... The cloak still takes more minerals and you're just better off getting crit response system for boswell.
Choppytehbear1337 the annihilators don’t do there damage in a single shot, they do it over a burst of like 8 shots in a second, so I’m not sure how effective his ult would be in reducing it
@@jaycobhughes3932 Seemed to reduce it one one go last I played unless the updated it. Even then I doubt each shit is under 30 damage. I was able to tank 30 annihilators with a with that ulti
Those reapers stuck around waaaay to long, i dont play direct strike (due to lack of internet, only manage to catch videos on my phone) but even i know that was a serious lack of attention or awareness
Why did you go with Cannonball instead of Blaze against all these zealots ? His hardened shield would have fared much better against the immortals as well ...
He explains his reasoning at 25:50 , saying it's more cost effective to just place more units... but I actually kinda disagree. The armor and the 10% health is significant.
Once you got more than 4 units, the first level armor is more effective than having another unit (on hp). 6 for level 2 and 8 for level 3... I can’t remember the cost above level 3, but assume 10. Also, since he is doing a brawler heavy comp, getting that 15% hp might worth it after 5 brawlers.
GaryDefiance I’m with you. I argued with Incursus on this issue back in one of his early Tychus video. Unfortunately he probably forgot about the math I showed to him.
Karaks is not good against tychus. It takes 3 shadow cannon to kill a rattle snake, which nothing karaks has counters (except zealots who die horriblely to blaze) it is not cost effective at all.
@@aierce Bs lmao, it is cost effective. If you go tychus + health upgrade + anti armor( which is a must) that's about 900 mineral down the drain, get rid of tychus and cannonball will melt next. Do you even direct strike?

Did you know: If you teleport a unit from one zone onto the line, it will retain the buff from the zone it was in.
Indeed!
Does it still work?

Yes, it kind of bothered me that he said lings don't have high damage..... They are among the highest dps units in the game. Even before krackling.

check out Frost Games, found that hidden channel with TONS of direct strike videos, uploads daily, but hes a small youtuber.
Not sure, later blizzard game seems favoring multiplicative stacking.

Cloak doesn't interrupt the ability 😂😂😂
I did a classic Raynor build with rines marauders and medics and they absolutely owned everything
"I love my hydras"
"Time to attack the enemy cannon"
"...where are my hydras"
food for thought. Tychus with that many eliminations in an unstoppable brawl
Welcome back~ Glad to see you back to uploading was a bit lonely without your videos
What's this Counter-Strike you speak of.
Showing your age incuraus.
17:45 probably the best clip. They didnt really stop running XD
If you get a blaze and his ultimate ability, he can single handedly tank the alpha strike of the annihilators
I’m not sure that’s because of his ultimate ability, more because he’s just super tough
@@jaycobhughes3932 His ultimate ability reduces damage done to him to a max of 30.

Nobody:
Incursus: 19:54
Oh wow, those Tychus kills. If only he had access to that 2% life on kill, he would have strode the battlefield like a god.
+1 attack upgrade increases attack by 10 percent (but at least by 1 damage) not flat 1
Incursus. For Tychus against Karax Immortals : You really need blaze oil aoe + more cannonballs with stuns. Thats about it.
Those reapers stuck around waaaay to long, i dont play direct strike (due to lack of internet, only manage to catch videos on my phone) but even i know that was a serious lack of attention or awareness
Was playing the Brawl when this was uploaded.
28:06 is breathtaking
You're breathtaking!
You're all breathtaking!
Have you heard of our lord and savior, Alarak? Wrathwalkers and vanguards down to an attack a second pretty much.
Would mass cyclone fair well with this set of mutations?
I really miss Theese videos :(
With Tychus home made brew would the Raynor marine with stim pack and attack speed buff from the hyperion have the fastest attack speed?
One of these days I'd like to see vega "spam" with attack boost. Or maybe I'm thinking Nux... I don't know, I never play Tychus.
What are the exact buffs from the last mutator ?
35% attackspeed and more speed ?
Why go for cracklings when you can go for cracklisks?
Pretty sure they are cheeselings :3
I was *just* checking to see if a new video was up.
That hnh player threw so hard
Why did you go with Cannonball instead of Blaze against all these zealots ? His hardened shield would have fared much better against the immortals as well ...
After this vid i tried Tychus and won that easy 1v3
Hallowed. Pronounced as if you were describing HAL-9000 ‘s debts. “HAL-owed”
What are the symbols showing up on the floor?
Yay another one.. and he messes up in the first 10 secs..
Nice intro lol.
Nice msi afterburner specifics
I wanna see spaz brood lords.
With the extra attack speed, how do you NOT spam Sirius? :)
Yeah, Sirius with attack speed buff is fun
yay
These poor reapers this is genocide
So why not get the armor/HP upgrades?
He explains his reasoning at 25:50 , saying it's more cost effective to just place more units... but I actually kinda disagree. The armor and the 10% health is significant.

can you try mass infestors

4 shadow cannons if has health upgrade
If you let them auto micro sure. But a well microed karax would still hurt Tychus hard.
@@astupidlylongnamethatstoolong micro what. It doesn't matter what shadow cannon hits. Tychus units has too much health. It is not cost effective.

Like nothing if you get WoL
Free.
Free
Why do I feel your income is way faster than when I play direct strike?
Have you been controlling the middle line?
why no FORTS!?
hey i wana 1v1 you would that be fine
The buff clearly didn't apply to your kerrigan idk why you're saying it did...

what this isn't forts

People get really salty playing this game mode don't they?
