How can I slow down a unit's speed?

Ok, in Temple Siege, Urine does a great job of slowing units down with the firebat's(assault) first spell
It casts disruption web then there's like hallu'd kakarus or something that disappear/appear over the units head and die continuously.
Does this in itself slow down the unit?
Is there something else I'd have to do?

I know follow location and conditions, just need Action(s) help
Thanks

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

Whenever you move/create a unit over/under another unit, it pauses slightly. If you use this with hyper triggers, and do it constantly, the unit will effectively slow down.

The killed kakaru is what does it, probably. The easiest way is to just constantly move a burrowed unit under the slow unit.

Of course, this only works on ground units, and make sure you move burrowed units to them, rather than creating them on them, since if you create units burrowed they are displaced, only moving them causes them to not be displaced. Many people prefer to use air units, as they won't have problems when the player is near a cliff or other unwalkable terrain.

NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating

NimoStar -- It can by playing the same map thousands of times. It is similar to AI speedrunning games
