Because if you click the Herc (or Dropship/Overlord/Prism/Medivac) the transport will unload while it keeps moving.
It’s an especially useful trick in versus where you can dodge Queens while unloading Marines. But it also works in Co Op to spread tanks out from a Herc Transport.

I always wondered how that trick worked. I’ll have to give it a go at some point.
Welcome to 10 years ago dude lol. /wink
To be fair, I haven’t played competitively since… Super late WoL release, if not early HotS. I just never understood the drop while moving, and how they performed it.
I suppose you could play Protoss and not know a simple trick like that. I play Terran, learning every trick in the book is standard to get just about anywhere. #balancewhiningterranstereotype

I played everything, actually. I was a Silver Terran on KR, and a Gold/Platinum Zerg on NA.
Interesting that you chose Alarak as your Co Op commander of choice if that was the case. Any particular reason you don’t like the Zerg COs as much?
Protoss is my default go-to these days, but it’s a lot of how Alarak’s demeanors are, and the fact that his VA is John de Lancie (shared with Q and Discord.)
I enjoy playing all three races, don’t get me wrong. In a standard game, I can play all three relatively alright. It’s just that my more enjoyable Zerg CO, Stetmann, is not a good choice due to how intensive he is on the game’s engine and how people with weaker machines can just… Stall out.

John De Lancie is as good a reason as any. I love so much that Blizzard brought him in to voice that character, he is so perfect. Thanks for the reply.
No problem!
Your Highlord demands the Dark God’s blood! DO NOT DISAPPOINT ME!
Is Stetmann harder on computers than Stukov or Kerrigan is?
I have a beast of a machine and Stettman makes even my Stettman ally lag.
Not even Stukov does that. My vote is for Stettman.
Yes. Stukov’s lag is from particles and sheer numbers. Stetmann’s lag is from the Stetfields constantly running calculations in the background, plus graphical lag from always seeing the power fields. Overcharging the Stetellites makes this worse, and his Zerglings just DESTROY the game’s engine when you have both the Hardened Shield and Adrenal Glands researched.
I play on an excellent machine, but haven’t thought about me playing as Stetmenn vs. a Stetmann ally with a “lesser machine”.
I guess it still helps? I haven’t gotten Stetlag since he was first released.
