what's wrong with 1.18 in terms of balance? they keep emphasizing that players practiced hard on 1.18 but iirc there's no balance changes aside from goons being less dumb and valkyries working properly..

Hiya! I used to play SC2 back in the day and wrote a lot of strategy pieces on TL (formerly SC2John). Now I've been converted to BW working with the BW writing staff :D. This week I've just been on LR thread duty so I don't have to write hahaha.

That has to be it. I can't imagine they'd play it if 1.18 on LAN is as bad as it is online.

Those bug fixes are actually not in this patch. But from what I understand, 1.18 has a few bugs regarding mouse movement and input. It's probably virtually imperceptible to the average player, but obviously pro players are really sensitive to that sort of thing.

There's a lot of dropped inputs with assigning control groups and macroing. I had to go over my macro buildings at least twice just to get them all to build, when doing the exact same thing in 1.16 would have worked. I can only imagine how bad it must be for the pros who can go over their buildings in 1-2 seconds.

Ah okay. I mostly play on ShieldBattery, so I haven't had the chance to really check out 1.18 myself firsthand. Sounds pretty bad though. Hopefully it gets fixed quickly.

Yes. There's the little thing on the left that gives supply/mineral/gas/apm which is part of the 1.18 obs hud apparently. You can also see the player's screen location on the minimap. I guess they wanted these matches to be on 1.18 so they rushed it out unfinished.

And also showing players screen squares on minimap is kind of confusing o_O

I'm not sure about muta micro. When I played the PTR it was impossible to micro mutas because of the server lag. I assume it might be slightly better on actual LAN. If muta micro is even a little bit off though, it'll mess up your volleys. And yea the player screen squares is really more distracting than helpful.

although watching Hero's mutas right now he doesn't seem to be missing many volleys. Maybe it is better on LAN.

it's possible...but I wonder. There was the 1v1 bug on the PTR. If you set the game to 1v1 mode you'd get the same spawns every game, at least for FS. On FS you'd get the top left and top right spawns everytime. I'll go check to see if the same thing happens on neo medusa after this game.

edit: nvm I can't. Still have the PTR client but you can't set 1v1 in singleplayer, and I uninstalled my official 1.18 client. I'm also too scared to upgrade since it might find my 1.16 install and bork it up.

(\frac {13})^3 = \frac 1 {27} ~= 0.037, probability is quite low, but not unreasonable.
