Did the swarm mechanic get changed?

    You can swarm a bodyguarding unit by killing the unit doing the bodyguarding through doing damage to the bodyguarded unit.

    Also, you can swarm a Stitched Tyrant: he drops a remains + the swarm.

    When did this happen?

    Interesting to note stitched specifically says in ability descripton that it can't be swarmed. @Sokolov

    EDIT: case in point was a stitched tyrant being swarmed and spawning stitched remains

    Might be because he's a 2x2.

    I assume that might be changed when the larger stitched drop 2 remains

    1. 2 remains from 2x2 would be way op
    2. there would still be 2 spaces for swarmed unit to spawn

    Well once again im assuming, but i do think when they try to implement the 2x2 stitched remains dropping it'll allow the devs a closer look into why swarm still procs, hence they might be better suited to changing it so that its WAI

    IIRC the whole reason they became swarm proof was they could fix the bug where you couldn't swarm stitched so it became a feature.
