I haven't built a spire since the day I got this prestige. I do exclusively brutas because they can deep tunnel. I rarely saw you use the deep tunnel of the brutas. I do early double evo chamber upgrades. To gather biomass, I drop a nydus everywhere my army goes. I make 2 or 3 roaches at a time that rally right into the omega network in the main. They pop out of the nydus in places, shift click around to gather bio mass and then the last shift click is back into the nydus. I set the rally output of the next nydus as the group of roaches are shift click walking round the previous nydus area. They eventually find their way into the nydus and the next nydus is on a control group. I occasionally select it with key to see it the roaches have gotten back in. If I see them back in there, I select unload on that next nydus and they rally out as I give them new shift click paths and rally more roaches from the main into the omega network. I deep tunnel the ever-growing hot key group of brutas. Its gotten up to 28! Its absolutely among the four best prestiges in the game. Alarak's new deathfleet is the best, swann's payload director is also insane craziness and Zegara's level 1 prestige getting all the free banelings and scourges is amazing as well.

Sorry about the "Help" part, i usually play with randoms so i'm not used to having a good ally, and after playing with a random abathur ally that didn't have a single Brutalisk after 15 minutes you start "Helping" on auto mode

[@glenmcgillivray4707]

You have been struggling for many years friend. We appreciated your efforts no matter how mismanaged. Thank you for actually thinking of your ally We need more to do this. We shall not discourage you outside of speed run attempts.

[@boodotcom7399]

I kid you not, I was playing on Mist opportunities as P2 Swann and my ally is P3 Abathur. At first its pretty weak, have to say, but later on my ally’s forces just steamrolls any enemy base and attack wave while I’m just building turrets to defend. At the end of the mission, I was very shocked to see the amount of Brutalisks my ally has. 20+?! Really?!

[@bpgoss]

Yeah man. that's how it's done. I haven't built a spire since the day I go this prestige. Drop nydus's with the army. A few roaches at a time coming out of the worms getting all the biomass everywhere. My record is 28 brutas.

[@crazytuffandco.]

As someone who's played a lot of p3 Abby... Mist Opportunities is the best map with Brutalisk Queen.

[@boodotcom7399]

Ya don’t say? Interesting.... though I will not have a chance to experience since I don’t own him yet, but still.

[@mofuchan]

Great, always wanted to see mass leviathan in action

[@glenmcgillivray4707]

I keep thinking more brutalisks are useful. Mostly because you can deep tunnel groups of them everywhere whenever.

[@vumasster]

yeah but leviathan go poke poke

[@edmis90]

@@vumasster Good point.

[@edmis90]

One of the weakest Prestiges in the game for one of the strongest commanders in the game, is still a powerhouse.

[@randomdude7052]

Biomass Hoarder is Arguably better, as you can keep around units that can heal instead of high HP no Regen Ultimates (3 Max Hoarder Queens heal ridiculously fast)

[@adalgisounoqualunque9033]

@@randomdude7052 and tunneling horror with mass swarm hosts with no vision required is even more hilarious

[@randomdude7052]

if CTG kept a max biomass queen around he'd be able to actually heal his ultimate's fairly well

[@theotherguy4456]

i'd love to see han and horner chaotic power couple

[@randomdude7052]

The Best way to help abathur is to heal his high HP units, as they regen very slowly

[@randomdude7052]

I'm thinking one of the other proper zerg commanders might be good for this, perhaps Zag has the 125-instant heal queens? idk, Raynor with his Medics can keep units live longer thanks to dmg reduction, I don't think any of the toss commanders have anything, only things that prevent damage (or recall, which has no healing whatsoever.) Stetmann Heal Mode (Max Prest) Has about 9.5 heals/s for ally, although the charging cable on the Infesters could be paired with this, resulting in about 20 heals/s. Mengsk if he gets medivacs can be good due to double heal, but its not particularly fast compared to the other options, and quite ineffective, as to get any real healing done, you have to spam the s**t out of it, as theres no way to inc that energy regen. The Medic Method works well with prestige, as they practically heal 2 at a time with the right pts, completely and utterly making Mengsk's Useless, as the Medics heal faster, and have 2 targets (essentially), and do so more efficiently, and can be produced easier. Drop Pod Buff on top of this can make it a lot faster and efficient as well, so a Raynor who mass produces medics is one of the best supports for Aba. The Instant heal of 125 from other queens is Especially good, And Zagara (If she has these) Is the Ideal Pick, even if she does make excessive amounts of banelings and scourge with SQ, as long as she understands not to use them except in emergencies, if she has the extra queen energy regen on (and she better because with SQ the other prestige buff she could put pts in is useless), then having a zag with 8-12 queens to use heal all the big boy units, they should be brought back up to full, and zag tends to have way way way WAY too much money for their own good, so its a good way for them to spend it, as it helps her Aba, and If she wants she can spread creep too, with that many queens. Aba does have Mend, but it only heals 50, then 5(ish) a sec/10s.

[@glenmcgillivray4707]

Given the breakneck pace. I wonder if this prestige would be more hilarious on something like swarm maps due to the bonus biomass and long map times. Zombie food for Zerg, so you could for instance try lighting off all the shuttles at once :p

[@Dawnofdreams64]

infested civilians don't give biomass sadly, Malwarfare spawns a ton of waves though so mines can net you a ton of biomass this way. this seems like the best map for limitless from what i've seen so far.

[@sebru]

Leviathans are just like battlectuisers right?

[@stephenholland3801]

I would like to see Swann P2 Grease Monkey.

[@alvaroruiz5329]

People are giving likes and the video is not there yet jajaja. Good chanel by the way

[@roydadancegod]

Tried limitless, its only useful against environmental mutators like going nuclear, lava burst, blizzard etc.

[@SlenderForce]

I personally think abathur p3 is insanely strong especially with double biomass drop mastery. Brutalisk & leviathan are abathur's strongest units. Just 3 of each can already steamroll almost every attack wave; having more than 3 is basically annihilation

[@roydadancegod]

@@SlenderForce I havent tried that, do you have a video showing a replay or a sc2replay file?

[@NamNguyen-yt4sb]

Yeah it's just a really fun to use Prestige but for me it's pretty weak. People who said that this Prestige is strong probably have like 300+ apm or something to handle all that micro.

[@ermyhun]

Yeeeeaaaahhh!

[@sebru]

Chain of ascension would be easier to pick up biomass i ghink

[@nathanjones5337]

I think mass brutas is better since it's more mobile

[@patricioamatoferreyra6184]

and Brutalisks?

[@johncheung4005]

a lot of time to get biomass, it is not easy

[@kingpet]

woah woah, toxic nest gives you MORE biomass?? since when?

[@Neometalll]

Since Aba's release. I know, reading the tooltips, who ever does that, right?

[@edmis90]

@@Neometalll Tbh, yes. The first time you read it - the additional biomass thing is irrelevant to you, heck you might not even know what it is at start of the first time that you play Aba. So now you read and see it makes boom when enemies step on it. Great. But now you've no reason to read it ever again. But remember the biomass thing that you discredited earlier due to not knowing wtf that is? Yeah, no you don't. And you won't until you see or hear it being mentioned somewhere. And it if you're a casual player who doesn't visit forums or watch content, then that might take some while. Or years for that matter.

[@meeperdudeify]

@@Neometalll rude

[@darthvocrum5719]

Half of the game u'll end up having only 2 or 3 ulti with the greatest of micros xD so it is 100% NOT WORTH IT
