People got accustomed to Bo3s for online tournaments. Group stages give each player 2 matches minimum though 2016 is 10 years ago. o.o | ||

If it's unlimited, I'm not sure there is much point in expanding unless I'm missing something Only 8 patches can be mined, so you don't get much extra value from the 9th worker mining mineral in the main, which means fast expansion is a must. So basically the game becomes a normal game with accelerated tech/expansion and faster income from one base. From what I've seen there's a 3 Fac timing from Terran that hits like crack, but nothing that cannot be dealt with with preparation. Whether some players are hiding some builds for ASL remains to be seen. Maybe what we've just seen from Shuttle is one of them. | ||

Maybe what we've just seen from Shuttle is one of them. ah, an 8patch "limit" makes a lot of sense, still, the increased income should induce a lot of variation to existing builds or accelerations - like on a normal map u definitely can't add 2 extra proxy gates without tipping your hand heavily, Shuttle could bait with ranged research and fast XP while doing all that...certainly a byproduct. Looks very interesting, potentially balance breaking too but I am curious how it develops in the pro scene. Thanks for the explanation! | ||

You know, Mini is the type of guy who would build 6 DTs and go batshit crazy in a Bo1 PvT. "You will not beat Rush in a normal game bro, you have to do this" | ||
