Frequently Asked Questions
This page contains some of the more frequently asked questions regarding Co-op and the site itself.
Gameplay
How do I get vision of Amon's units when viewing a replay?
You will first need to find a point where you get vision of a single one of Amon's units or structures. Then, click that unit and hold the "V" key, which will reveal all of Amon's units for you.
Note that if the selected unit or structure dies, you will lose vision. For persistent vision, it is best to click one of Amon's structures in an area that won't be cleared (while still holding the V key) to transfer vision.
What is the biggest mistake you see people make in Co-op?
Focusing on Bonus Objectives. Bonus objectives offer a tiny amount of experience compared to a mission victory. However, many players seem to focus on completing bonus objectives and end up losing the entire mission. Missions like Cradle of Death are traps for these inexperienced players.

How did you get this data?
All the data on this site was personally obtained by myself by looking through the map files and the information stored in the Trigger and Data Editor of the Starcraft Editor.
What Replay Interface do you use for your game casts?
Aommaster used a custom Replay Interface that he wrote, exclusively for the content on this site.
What if I want some other information?
Communities exist at /r/starcraft2coop on Reddit, and at the StarCraft 2 Co-op Discord server.
I found some errors on a page.

You should recommend army builds for various composition/map/commander combinations
This has been a very common request for the site, however, we have shied away from including such information for a number of reasons:
- Recommending a particular army composition locks players into a mindset that these are the only units that can be used against that composition. The goal of this site is to provide players with information and tips and encourage them to think a little more deeply about the underlying strategy of Co-op
- While there are recommended army compositions for regular difficulties, army compositions require additional considerations when playing against mutators
- Unit compositions in armies are subject to change across Co-op rebalances and add an extra element to maintain
I have some suggestions/tips/other information to add.
