one medic rule
I notice that Iron sometimes trains 1 medic to heal its SCVs. It beats having them repair each other.
Here’s a rule of thumb to try: When you face off against a group of healable units with 1 medic, target the medic first. The rest of the fight will be easier. The rule of thumb is most useful when units are few: In a big battle, one medic hardly makes a difference, but when 1 zergling is trying to kill SCVs it’s another story.
When there are 2 or more medics, they can heal each other and it’s often better to save the medics for last. They have armor.
It’s only a heuristic. If you want to get it exactly right, do the calculation! But I notice that a lot of bots could benefit from a simple heuristic.
