auction, highest bidder gets to decide whether it is legal.
Same rule for allied mines.

Otherwise it kinda just saves you a bit of scouting time For islands it is massive, and protoss really didn't need a boost there. 4 zeal drop is a viable opening if you know opponent's starting location, not otherwise. Sair openings likewise let you scout and adjust to your opponent if you scout the right place first - not necessarily if the third spot. | ||

There's a strong reason to patch this bug out, which is that it will crash the game under certain circumstances. Even then, I also highly doubt being able to know the opponent's base this way is reasonable, so it will be removed completely instead of just fixing the crash. | ||

And the math for the sacrificed minerals and if it is worth not scounting rushes at your door is not done. Dude this gives Protoss a HUGE advantage, 25 minerals is nothing if you can know where your opponent is instantly on 4 player maps. Protoss can now deny a Zerg hatch first every single time, probe harass Terran and proxy gates etc. | ||

On islands this is totally broken. But even as a random player, I will be happy if protosses try to scout me doing this instead of actually scouting. | ||

I was worried for a sec if it was possible to scout pool timings with this, because then you could use this to go for a safe 12 nex. But it seems like that is not the case. I think it has virtually 0 real utility on a land map, at least pvz. | ||

Also agree this will likely not be worth it vs. random, since the main thing I want to know is if the opponent is z or p/t, so I can decide whether to forward pylon (for FFE/GE) or not, and you have to make at least 1 pylon before this. Related: curious where the last two (or more?) "hacks"/bugs for Protoss have fallen on ladder/competitive play: IIRC there was a splash at the time about the total recall bug and the half-priced archons trick, but I haven't really seen them explicitly banned or even attempted in competitive play? Probably a combo of opportunity cost + required skill + unwritten community norms. I expect the same thing to happen to this bug, meaning a patch really isn't necessary. | ||
