Oh wow. The Norwegian Nobel Committee has nothing on KeSPA when it comes to making batshit decisions.

▶ "Gather" and "Return Cargo"
The "return cargo" bug to get a worker past another unit has been previously banned. Now they are adding the "gather" command onto the list. A player is only allowed to use "move" to move past other units, not "gather" or "return cargo". *

What? I'm confused

U guys seem not to understand it correctly. I think it means that SCOUTING with Return Cargo and Gather is not allowed, which has nothing to do with worker drilling move. I remember a game when fOrGG did the same trick against Nal_rA on Loki(?) and he was disqualified. After that i've never seen it happen again, but i might be wrong. I think there's nothing to worry about.

Yeah it looks like it's just banned if you use it for scouting purposes. Although netizens are still confused whether it affects if used while blocking a rush.

PvZ now becomes much more difficult - the zerg can just put 2 lings on their ramp after killing the initial scouting probe and have no reason to get speed.

imo it's quite obvious it doesn't. There is a bug, when you could glitch your worker through units blocking the ramp with spamming return cargo a lot (see Nal_rA vs fOrGG game i've mentioned before). So i guess KeSPA found out that Gather works too, so they've banned it.

tbh i don't think these changes make that big of a difference

did people really think they banned worker drilling altogether? come on.

That has been banned for years, so obviously that's not what they're talking about.

They added Gather to the ban list. That's how i see it.

⑪ 일꾼 비비기 버그 : 정찰을 목적으로 시야가 밝혀지지 않은 상대 진영을 일꾼의 Gather, Cargo 명령을 이용해 입구를 막고 있는 상대 유닛과 비비며, 상대 유닛에 의해 막혀있던 진영을 이동할 수 있는 버그

Worker 'Rubbing' Bug : Glitching through units that are blocking ramps using the 'Gather' and 'Return Cargo' command to get to a location while there is no vision is banned.

This means yes you can still block 4 pool
And yes, using the mineral-click gather-glitch on Destination is STILL valid. Scan rush on Hitchhiker is STILL valid.
This rule only applies for the illegal gather-click glitch and return-cargo glitch on terrain (what Paladin mentioned earlier, eg Nal_rA vs ForGG on Loki).

In the Fomos article, you forgot to translate the part where it was mentioned 'workers holding resources'.

▶ 일꾼 비비기 버그 규정
금지된 버그 중 하나인 자원을 들고 있는 일꾼의 Cargo 명령을 이용한 일꾼 비비기 버그에 Gather 명령을 이용한 일꾼 비비기 버그 내용이 추가 되었다. 추가된 규정을 통해 일꾼의 Move 명령 이외에 Cargo, Gather 명령을 이용한 일꾼 비비기는 금지된다.

▶ Working Glitching Bug update/fix/change
One of the banned bugs was the bug where workers holding resources will use the 'Return Cargo' command to glitch through units blocking the ramp. It is now updated to include 'Return Cargo' AND 'Gather'.

But the last sentence is still very questionable, because it says that "Through this updated rule, other than using the 'Move' command, glitching through units with workers using the 'Return Cargo' and 'Gather' command is banned."

I still think Fomos could have phrased the sentence better. (meaning this is a total misunderstanding)
