I dont really see why this is such a big issue for so many... anyone above gold can split workers, its not like its a pro exclusive move.

I don't think the automine is so bad. Sometimes my games start with a slight bit of lag (maybe its like that for everyone), and really splitting drones isn't a huge deal. People are going to bitch about it making the game easier but really its just the first like 2 seconds, is it really that big of a deal?

The only thing it changes is that laggers don't suffer the disadvantage of not being able to split immediately.

Really awesome for AU players. Playing in Aus is playing cross server, even on SEA.

Been playing a fair bit lately, so hopefully the Blizz gods smile on me. The automine thing just seems stupid. I mean, sure it won't make that much of a difference. But it's such an unnecessary change. Why would anyone at Blizzard even suggest doing it? Love to hear their reasoning.

Hmmm, not a fan of the auto-mine and split at the start, tbh. It feels silly and unnecessary.

Pressing E, selecting and splitting workers quickly, then selecting Nexus and hotkeying it to 5 is a nice way to get into the game. It probably won't make much of a difference, I guess. As long as there is an option to disable it, I guess it's OK.

Still not a fan though.

If there are any high level players out there atm, I would absolutely love if you could get in touch with me and send me some of the replays of your games. I want to start casting some HotS stuff, but want to avoid my own games because I already know the outcome of them and therefore, can't cast as genuinely.

PM me here, tweet at me, @JethroTV or post on Reddit!

Many thanks,
Jethro

Edit: Also, while I'm at it. I just want to say that so far, the Oracle feels really fun. Regardless of its balance (it feels very strong), the combination of speed and fragility is sweet.

No doubt with the addition of this auto-mine feature, you will be winning Code S in no time.

So people complain about SC not being as popular as LoL, but when they make changes to increase the playability amongst lower level players but does not affect the pro level, people begin with the incessant bitching.

Lose lose situation for Blizzard if you're trying appease the prima-donnas that are TL users...

1. It's the beta, so chill. Better message Blizzard regarding stuff that you don't wanna see in the final game than whining in some forum.
2. Everybody has this new advantages, so its even game.
3. These changes are not that bad as they appear to be. You don't need them above gold league.

It's not even that, I'm less annoyed about that. I'm more annoyed by the "Here's your worker count" shit above geysers and the CC/nexus/hatch. That's just super casual retarded.

So they get disabled when you make it past gold? pretty sure they don't. I don't care how it effects the ladder. I care how it would effect the pro scene. Cause that's where all the good players are, not ladder. That's where shit like the worker count breaks the game difficulty.

Demuslim made some comment on twitter about a change to automine? can someone clarify what that was?


it means that your workers @ start autimatically start mining AND splitting. you dont have to do anything


That really depresses me, the split is one of those things that follows your skill level from the very first game. I love to split, probably you can turn that "feature" off, but eventually if you want to be competitive everyone will use it. t.t

Spliting is fun.

Except they [Blizzard] are continuously taking the little skill things away. There is a reason why BW is a harder game to play compared Sc2. The more and more things are done for you the more and more you lose that certain skill aspect.

There's no autosplit in custom maps.

NVM. It's not even HOTS in a custom game.
Oracle comes in, Scvs go down, never a miscommunication.

His point is the changes only help low level players and does absolutely nothing to legit (non 4gate all day) Dia/Masters players, let alone pros. It's a non-issue. People are crying like it's going to make Joe Masters into a GSL Superstar.

Making the game as accessible as LoL is a very very good thing.

Yeah, that's also annoying. I hope that can be disabled too.

Aha, that said, I keep telling myself I won't be playing SC2 in 2013. So, I really should not give a shit.
