Tactical Overview

"Stealthy ambush mine that punishes enemy movement with devastating splash damage."

The Widow Mine burrows into the ground and fires a Sentinel missile when an enemy unit approaches, dealing massive area damage.

Strengths

Invisible when burrowed and between attacks
Sentinel Missile deals enormous splash that one-shots groups
Deters enemy from advancing without detection

Weaknesses

Very predictable placement over time
Has a reload cooldown between shots
Countered by detectors and slow advance

Good Against

Vulnerable Against

Usage Tip

Place Widow Mines at watch points and ramps. Always pair with Vikings or Turrets for mutual anti-air protection of the mines themselves.

Tactical Abilities

Sentinel Missiles

Passive homing missile attack that fires when burrowed, dealing massive single-target and splash damage.

Burrow

Burrows the mine so it can charge its missiles and attack.

Combat Upgrades

Drilling Claws

Drastically reduces the time required to burrow and unburrow.

Concealment

Ensures the Widow Mine remains completely invisible even after firing its Sentinel Missile.
