2) It doesnt have to. You could get away with a BM/SH and be able to do some serious damage. Since Hex pacifies units and heroes so easily. And BM can **** up just about anything. People use FS because of Wolves, the Chain Lightning and the fact he doesnt have to get to melee distance to attack, keeping him safe from your pults own splash damage.

1) The problem lies in 2 fields. First, if you have 2 barracks or not. Second, how fast can you get siege weapons before your enemy beats you to oblivion.

This replay, although vs a normal computer and the fact I didnt pay attention to some of my units and especially my SH, is how I would do the BO for the Gruntapult. It may work out in terms of certian players. The problem is: It doenst real with players who rush you AND the results may vary depending on opposition.
