I wonder if using this exploit/trick will get you suspended or kicked out of beta.

Ok, cool, then they need to make it whenever there are any combination of eggs + larvae = 3 on a hatchery that it doesn't spawn more larvae


Say you have 4 eggs morphing and no larvae. You are making 4 ultralisks, so it takes a long time for them to be finished. For the whole duration of 75 seconds, the hatchery is not spawning new larvae. This would be silly, wouldn't it?

The best option is to just be able to cancel an egg within the time needed to spawn a new larva from the hatchery. I.e. if the time needed to spawn a new larva is 20 seconds, the ability to cancel a morphing egg is has to be removed after ~15 seconds (or at least some value under 20).


I don't see why they cant just let the larva mechanic work identical to how it worked in bw/pre patch 9

eggs are eggs (from hatcheries), larva is larva. You can have any combination of eggs + larvae (build and spawn times willing ofc) but your larva is never going to exceed 3.

If you have an egg morphing and 3 larva and cancel, you get no larva back. If you have 2 larva and 3 eggs morphing and cancel them all, you get 1 larva back. Queen eggs always refund larva

It's still a lot more forgiving than it ever was for zerg.


I'm just saying that if they want to change it so that you could cancel the morphing egg and get a larva back, the option that I proposed above makes sure you have a maximum of 3 larvae.



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.

I've never liked the 3 larva cap (edit: I mean the way a hatchery with no queen will make 3 larvae and then just stop larva production). It feels too artificial. I'd much prefer larvae to have a fixed lifespan similar to that of broodlings, such that when your 4th larva is produced, your first larva dies of old age. The larva lifespan can be carried over into eggs, so that eggs made from fresh larvae can be cancelled in an advanced state of growth to get a stale larva, but eggs made from stale larvae will just dissolve into goo when cancelled.

This would also force you to be more strategic about when to use your queen to inject larvae, instead of just spamming it and wading around through seas of immortal larvae.

Bug Fixes


Fixed an issue where Larva were not dying after being cancelled.
Fixed an issue with Banelings, Brood Lords, and Overseers obeying their original Hatchery's rally point.


It's from Patch10 patchnotes. Downloading it right now here in Germany.

edit: Those are the whole patchnotes for patch 10 btw.

Assuming the Z you're vs is actually doing that build. If not, that pre-emptive move tends to set you behind sometimes.

ZvP, all P needs to do when his probe scout finds it is to ready another probe to finish his wall. Terrans should have their wall up as well so no biggie.

Pretty much this should only ever really work against a P who doesn't open with gate forge or a Z going 13p or later. Exclude oasis and scrap station of course.

I've held off all patch 9 ling rushes with 14pool/15 pool. Doesn't seem to be a problem in ZvZ.

EDIT: Oops, new patch is out that fixes it.
