1 [q] However, at the same time, in a game where "stand still" is not a thing, impaler is pretty useless. It is not rare to see people with 20 impalers not doing anything significant.

3 Yeah, for some reason most impaler-spammers seem to be quite braindead when it comes to this unit. Even in standstill games, I rarely see them getting microed. Now, think of how horrible this unit would be if it was used to it`s normal potential in all of these games. It would be even worse if someone told the spammers the "secret" key-combi for multitargeting.... 3 Yeah, for some reason most impaler-spammers seem to be quite braindead when it comes to this unit.

7 Yes, it was nerved to it`s current state because it filled impalers role before. Think of shorter-range impaler with AoE. It`s still a nightmare for cloakies for example. It`s ironic that tremor and emissary now fall prey to impaler mostly. I think most actual artillery ( so not including sling, badger and crabe) should be stationary to fire. It could get some other ( offensive) buffs in return. It is easy enough to guard your arty with riots, aa, cloaker, shields etc. It doesn`t need to be fast to retreat on top of that. 7 Yes, it was nerved to it`s current state because it filled impalers role before.

I think most actual artillery ( so not including sling, badger and crabe) should be stationary to fire - not sure about firewalker. It could get some other ( offensive) buffs in return.
