Co-Op Mutation #465: Field of Screams

Bel’Shir is littred with mines, and each one can only be destroyed by either you or your partner. You must work together in order to clear a path for Stetmann’s bots. Communicate, coordinate, and conquer.

Polarity - Each enemy unit is immune to either your units or your ally’s units.
Minesweeper - Groups of Widow Mines and Spider Mines are buried throughout the battlefield.

Notes:

  • The mines can and will hit the Harvesting Bots, so you need to clear them out.
  • Sometimes there are mines between your bases. Move carefully.
  • Artanis’ Guardian Shell, Karax’s Unity Barrier, Nova’s Defensive Drone, and Stetmann’s Overcharge are literal life-savers for mines.
  • Observers’ and Overseers’ surveillance mode and scanner sweep are helpful for seeing mines.
  • Time stop and Immobilization wave reveal all cloaked enemy units and mines.
  • There is a [visual indicator] for the units that you cannot attack in the form of a little shield icon above the units.
  • Immobilization Wave, Time Stop, and other movement/attack restricting spells still work on enemy units immune to you, but they deal 0 damage.
  • You can manually target the enemy units immune to you, but it will do 0 damage.
  • Mind control works on units immune to you.
  • Widow Mines and Spidermines do not target structures and turrets.
  • Blaze and Stetmann’s Zerglings will cap mine damage to a small amount when they receive their respective upgrades.

This mutation is gonna be ugly because of polarity, but expendable units are cannon fodder to mines. Recommended commanders:

  • Stukov P3
  • Stetmann P1
  • Kerrigan P3
  • Zagara P1
  • Mengsk P3
  • Karax P2
  • Tychus P1
  • Nova P1

I tried a few times and got tired of the mines blowing up the bots before we could clear them together.
