09-10 KeSPA Rule Changes!
▶ Chatting Players who type anything besides 'gg' or 'GG' are no longer disqualified from the match, but are given a 'warning'. The KeSPA referee's decision is placed higher than this rule.
Ex. If a player accidentally types 'a', he would not be disqualified, but warned. But if a player types something like 'sexsexpussyhair' they can still be disqualified by KeSPA referee's decision.
▶ Complaining If a coach complaint comes in during a match, the game is paused immediately and the complaint is reviewed. Before, if a coach complained, the referee would listen to the complaint and then decide if the game is going to be paused.
▶ Disqualifications and Removal If a player or a coach does something that directly effects the game, or hinders the game in any way, must leave the stage to the waiting room. The details are discussed in the waiting room.
▶ "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".***
***NOTE: I think it only affects SCOUTING and for ENEMY UNITS. You can't scout through other units using Gather or Return Cargo to go through units.

People are on KeSPA website asking why and they're not getting an answer. It seems like you can't block 4pool anymore.
|
They banned "gather"? Just using it as a bug or completely?
|
Is this will affect for example a zerg defending his mineral line against zealots? Or prevent lings from attacking a cannon with probes?

if this means what i think it means, it's absolutely absurd. here are the situations i think of immediately:
- your scout dies, but you click on their mineral patch before you lose vision so your second scout can get in. this has been a staple move since i first started 1v1. - moving through your own units - can you not maynard through your army, or stack scvs to defend against harass? a funny extreme interpretation would be to not allow scvs to pass through each other after returning their minerals, instead having to be manually moved back LOL - any sort of drilling, especially for breaking ramps or moving stasis blocks
|
what a bad decision by kespa..drilling is not allowed.. they maybe taking drugs to produce this ridiculous desision.

I think this means not a single drill is allowed. Not even dronedrilling a zealot in your mineral line.
|
Look on the bright side...at least you can message "a"!
|
First part, pretty awesome, last one is a "WTF" moment
|
it is illusionary to think players could stop using these basic commands they have used for thousands of games....
If this rule stays, the game will become much more aggressive again!
|

wait so does this mean you can't maynard workers?
|
KeSPA didn't take certain circumstances into account before announcing rule changes. Wow, this never happens.
|
I10f says he found more information, but I'm really doubtful of Kespa doing what the wording seems to imply. They've made some stupid business decisions with regard to dealing with players and some extremely strict enforcement of some rules (rules that are usually understandable), but they've not had precedent (IMO) of touching on accepted, wide-spread game mechanics, so...
Edit: Then when I finish posting he's taken off the more information part. Arr.

Oh wow. The Norwegian Nobel Committee has nothing on KeSPA when it comes to making batshit decisions.
|
4 5 6 or what kind of pool it is will probably work!
|

What? I'm confused
|
|
holy shit have kespa lost their FUCKING MINDS?
I guess there's gonna be alot more agressive play this season now that worker defences are banned. holy shiit.
|
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.
|
I don't mind this change.

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.

Well, looks like good decisions across the board, then. Kespa > Nobel.

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)

For a moment I was like WTF. Coming from KeSpa I can believe anything.
|
Damn...I was so scared after reading that last rule...glad everyone cleared it up.
|
I must say that these are some good updates, looks like there will be no more mess and running arround for 1h when some coach decides to complain. Also, no more instant DQ for some random letter appearing is a good thing.Kespa takes the right course, finally?

▶ Complaining If a coach complaint comes in during a match, the game is paused immediately and the complaint is reviewed. Before, if a coach complained, the referee would listen to the complaint and then decide if the game is going to be paused.
This is not good thing. Coach can easily interrupt game if other player has good momentum going on.

With the clarifications to the last rule, these seem like excellent changes.

But if his 'complaint' isn't valid then this rule:
If a player or a coach does something that directly effects the game, or hinders the game in any way, must leave the stage to the waiting room. The details are discussed in the waiting room. takes care of it. He could be reprimanded/removed from the game.

Ace match, coach affects the game in some way and gets kick out. His player still increased his advantage.

If a coach REALLY fucks up his player can still get a fcking default loss. Refs are the rules
|
Wow, I thought that Kespa have changed into something completely new until I saw the worker drill restriction (that people say MIGHT be a mistranslation)
|

There are always certain reason that coaches can say (like he got information from audience or bad sound proof) and those are hard to proof true or false.

hmm what would be an example of the illegal gather/return cargo trick?
|
ForGG versus Nal_Ra on Loki.
Thanks for the clarification Kondara/Romad.

Go.go versus TT as well, I think, but there's no vod. http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/games/2987_go.go_vs_TT
IIRC I was watching it live. TT was so pissed because the KeSPA ref didn't give him the game. He left so quickly.

any1 gt the youtube video of the worker glitch???
|
So, if I'm understanding all the updates on the gather thing correctly:
Your scouting probe dies near the enemy mineral line. While you still have vision inside the enemy base, you order another probe to gather the enemy mineral line, causing it to pass through units blocking a ramp. This is still legal.
There's some bug I wasn't previously aware of that allowed you to get up a ramp by spamming gather when you have no vision inside the enemy base at all, similar to the return cargo spam bug. This is now banned.
That about right?
If that's the case, these seem like good changes except for the coach pausing rule. That's very easily abusable to screw with matches. Hopefully that will get reverted sometime soon.

At least they got rid of the stupid nothing but gg rule...
|
What about if your scouting probe is in the enemy base with minerals and you use the return cargo command to safely get past zerglings when your probe has been trapped?

Do you know the things Kespa has done? .>>>>

They lightened the gg rule.
But the gather thing only affects scouting rite? Thats what it sounds like.
|
Thanks for posting. I did not know about the gather/return cargo issue until reading the original post and comments. Definitely learned something there!
The new pausing rule due to a coach concern seems a little odd. I'm not sure how often coaches have those sort of complaints/concerns, but it seems like it could be rather disruptive if it happens much at all.
