How do I make that when a location centers on a player.
And make an explosion with an X shape
Or a square explosion around the unit with the location centered?



None.

We can't explain the universe, just describe it; and we don't know whether our theories are true, we just know they're not wrong. >Harald Lesch

To elaborate on how it works...
The wiki article linked by Burgled tells you the patterns in which units get created/removed. Using this knowledge you create a large grid of units and remove some of the units (no explosion) and kill the other units where you want to have an explosion of your shape.
Figuring which units to remove/kill to create the desired shapes isn't terribly hard to do but it requires quite some work and possibly testing, so you'll have to do that on your own.

WeirdoX4857 -- I can't believe this is really been around since 2003 but it does look classic and old asf still better than talking to kids on discord ranting about skibidi toilet and sexuality or whatever mental illness is going on in their heads

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.
