Well, yeah, but you can say the same about any tactic. From time to time, anything works. I think it all depends on your opponent's playstyle. But the question to determine if it is a real, viable long term strategy is 'if your opponent knew you were going to do this, do you still have a fair chance of winning?'

With standard tactics, e.g boosted soldier push, the answer is yes. With early game specials, it's probably not effective if your opponent can guess your motives. It's, as you said, mainly the surprise factor.

Much better to have it safely tucked away, waiting for the best opportunity to use it, yeah? ^^

P.S. love that collectible wit globe idea. The devs probably won't include it tho...
Come at me, Alex, prove me wrong...
