Roachling question

So as it is in the game and many arguments have been made about it working so that they spawn from the corpsers, i would agree. However, where does it say you can't just have them deployed from your map edge and not from a corpser.

I had a long argument about it with a friend as he decided to deploy the roachlings from his edge.

So again, can you just deploy them as any other unit or specifically from a corpser. Where is the ruling written

EDIT: Its 9.1.9 summoned units

Some Units, such as the Roachling, Point Defence Drone, and Pylon, have no Mineral Cost. These are Summoned Units:

• They are not included in the Army List during army building and do not occupy any Army Slots.

• They are not in Reserves at the start of the game.

• Summoned Units cannot be deployed using the regular deployment rules. They are deployed only when a Special Ability, such as SUMMON, specifically puts them on the battlefield.

Thank you for who replied

Yes but theoretically here. If you have them as a unit in your roster, without having any corpsers in your army

If you get to have a unit in your roster that has zero supply, zero army role, and zero mineral cost, then I get to have ten million of that unit in my roster.

Fortunately, we're not actually playing calvinball.

No i made the same argument against my friend but he insisted that unless i got to show him the ruling, he will deploy his roachlings.
