Simply stunning. I always thought SCVs turned around slower...guess now I know.

I see great potential for map making now. I predict that some pro map makers will make a map that when protoss spawns they move the nexus back 1 step to counter act. or move hatch closer and when it becomes lair or hive move it a little further without modifying the hit points or anything. i don't know how that would affect the workers mining though.

If the races are anywhere close to being balanced now, that would ruin everything.

I have a question that no one has brought up:

Could it be that some of these changes came from the 1.12 patch? Remember everyone was talking about faster mining?
I love Protoss because it is tough and straight. Protoss is the race for men.

No no, this is all old news. Also, they're not going to mess with Protoss mining functionality because they're already considered the weakest race =]

Yeah, I also think protoss is the weakest race.Maybe we should take some others idea to help protoss make some victory.

Im currently researching if the upgrading of a hatchery to either a lair or a hive will be more benificial to the income of the zerg rather that just keeping them all hatcheries. I will post results later.

Ok, I did a test where I had 5 computer players mine (using AI scripts) at the same time for 1200 seconds (Turned out to be 13:28 minutes). Off of one mineral patch the results are as following:

Hatchery mined: 912
Lair mined: 912
Hive mined: 912
Command Center mined: 864
Nexus mined: 912

So, you can see that it is not benificial to upgrade to a higher tec building for the zerg and that probes, while they mine a milisecond faster, do not mine fast enough to yield more money. The Terran was behind the other races by 52 minerals. On an 8 mineral base (Like LT) in a 15 minute game with the same amount of workers, it roughly means terrans will roughly behind the other races by 500 minerals. This deficit increases exponentially as time passes and with added expansions (For example, if the terran has two mining bases and the toss also has two mining bases and they both have the same amount of workers the terran will be behind 1000 minerals. 3 bases, 1500 minerals behind, ect.), which makes scvs increase in value as the game goes on.

Even if only one person finds any of this to be usefull, it will have been worth it
