Only if you have buildling support. By himself a zealot will never block a primary choke point. I'm really suprised no blizzard person has commented on this on the b.net forums. | ||

but can imagine how its extremely difficult for protoss on small maps you'd probably have to form a smaller choke with your pylon/gate ...which is impossible to do in less than 2mins on scrap station, gg | ||

Leaving the game, even right when you load in = loss. Even purposefully disconnecting when you see you're playing against Zerg will result in a loss. The other person will load into the game and you will time out. They'll get a win and you'll get a loss. | ||

Meh, I guess I'll just stay loyal to Protoss and if I get placed in copper I can only hope the system moves me up after this problem is fixed. | ||

ftp://liquid:sc2replays@nubbe.mine.nu:21001/binjured/0.10/Zerg Larva Fail.SC2Replay The only way I survived was with a proper 1-zeal block and micro to keep initial two zealots from dying until the third arrived. I feel like this would be sufficiently difficult to pull off on smaller maps or maps with large chokes that it would routinely fail. Worth note, however, is how badly this hurts the Zerg economy such that if it fails, there's really no reason for the Zerg to keep playing. IIRC, his average resource rate was about half mine. | ||

Dinkgus. This would make the queen quite useless, and force an early duel-hatch in base. Think about it: the protoss now have cronoboost to help produce workers the terran have Mules. having 3 larve cap would throw zerg way behind in SC2. | ||

Did they REALLY NOT see this coming? Blizzard makes great games... but stuff like this really makes me question the ability of some of them... And then there are the nublets here that argue that it's a good change EL OH EL. | ||
