The Badger lays mines which are fairly effective but have a limited lifespan from a distance (rather haphazardly). The Badger outranges most defenses comfortably, but is lightly armored and cannot flee easily so keep it screened with friendly units, possibly assisted by your own mines. | The Badger lays mines which are fairly effective but have a limited lifespan from a distance (rather haphazardly).

The Badger is generally too weak and inaccurate to effectively counter more robust enemy defenses like [[Stardust]] or [[Stinger]]s (which would be better countered with [[Impaler]]s). However, the Badger is useful in an area denial role (similar to the [[Firewalker]]), where its mines, while not particularly damaging to enemy assault units, can stop enemy raiders, skirmishers, and even cloaked units (like [[Scythe]]s, [[Widow]]s, and [[Ultimatum]]s) dead in their tracks. | The Badger is generally too weak and inaccurate to effectively counter more robust enemy defenses like [[Stardust]] or [[Stinger]]s (which would be better countered with [[Impaler]]s).

The Badger's mines stay active for a single minute, so a single Badger that force-fires on the ground can prepare a minefield consisting of 11 mines in a minute, which it can maintain indefinitely as long as it keeps firing. | The Badger's mines stay active for a single minute, so a single Badger that force-fires on the ground can prepare a minefield consisting of 11 mines in a minute, which it can maintain indefinitely as long as it keeps firing. | ||
