I'd prefer the workers mining count only displayed for spectators / replays.
That way in game you need to track it yourself, but in the replay you can easily see if you were doing it right or not.

Geysers have displayed the worker count, why is displaying the min harvesters on the 'town hall' different? just curious as to why there is a distinction.

At the start of a game your workers will be mining automatically and yout 'townhall' rallied to your min line.

Here's your answer.

Partial answer anyways. It CAN be disabled, but if a tournament doesn't care then why would you disable it as a pro? I guess I hope they force players to have it off in settings or something.

Yup. Check out any of the streams.



I wonder if they code it per mineral patch nearby or something or it's just a hard set figure.
As a scrub player, I think this addition is fantastic, it's going to be easier, for a noskill player like me to perform better!
As a big watcher of the game - I think this is a bad addition allowing weaker players an advantage.

Holy shit....serious? Think pros will bother w/ splitting still? and the forcing pairing of workers? If they still do that anyways? It's been a while since I watched pro games.

There's really no chance to split them. As soon as game starts they go straight for the minerals and you don't have any time to do it.
When I think of something else, something will go here

I don't think it will change anything. People seem to have this misguided theory that pros don't know how to count and keep track of their worker counts. You think all that worker boxing is just spamming APM?

I'm fine with it since my game lags at the start for about 10-12 seconds anyway, but that's just me.

Ok...even worse...I'm pretty sure I just saw the initial workers automatically start mining at the start of the game...is that real too, or am I seeing things?

How does it improve the game in any way? You literally have absolutely nothing else to do at the beginning of the game. Splitting rewarded focus and reaction time, most importantly, and to a lesser extent your control.
