Splash Damage? I Don't Think So...

I don't get why I can't be splashed!!! I must've stumbled onto somethin' every sc map maker wants cept me, cuz this stupid no splash damage sucks! Okay I created a spell that's suppose to attack with splash damage but when I use the spell, everything works just as I wrote it out to be yet when the Scarab's explode they don't deal damage. Not to the caster nor to the enemy. The first time I triggered it the splash damage was so bad it killed the caster. I was happy, singin' an everything. But then I... :ermm: ... Changed some stuff... And now it wont kill the caster nor any enemy anymore. Even though I changed things back (simplifyin' it though) it still wont work, and I've forgotten how the first triggers were written to begin with! So gay!!! So annoyin'!!! If I knew what I was doin' wrong I could write out a tut on how to get around splash damage. But since I don't understand what's causin' the triggers not to work... I need help... Please someone smart answer to this! :crazy:

The easiest way to do DDS is to move the scarab to the location you want it to do dmg, then move it to an unwalkable location. It should then explode and cause dmg.

What do you mean by "unwalkable"? Right now I have it set to where the scarabs explode as soon as the spell is cast. So they explode instantly.

Move it to where you want the dmg, then move it to an area where units cannot walk (i.e. walk, space, null terrain, etc.)

NudeRaider -- I bet it just needs another training session against pros instead of only against itself and nobody will be able to stop it anymore.

so it can be beaten by a prepared pro, even in macro games, if only barely. the muta micro in particular seems really hard to handle for protoss ground though. In the open goons can't catch them, in the base they trip over buildings, it just instantly flies out of storms and they fly circles around archons. Mass cannons do work, but can't cover the whole map with it. Probably need mass corsair to counter and hope you can outmaneuver all the scourge.
