Pretty funny though xD nice find, better try and do this quick before they patch it.. and when I saw "blizzard patching it quick", I really mean in a couple of weeks. | ||

That said, yeah, this should be fixed. Maybe add it as an ability in the expo though?  | ||

It doesn't matter which side is right in the blizzard is wrong, the exploiter is wrong debate.Blizzard already can and has banned for this type of offense. Look at WOW there was a character who was sent an item that instant killed anything by mistake from a mod. The mod was the one who sent it so the user didn't hack or anything. The user then used it for fun with some friends and ended up getting a server first on a big boss kill. Blizzard perma banned him and temp banned his guild mates (many of whom didn't know he had used the item) I am stoked to try this on my friends tonight in a custom game, but you can be sure I won't be using it on the ladder. | ||

However if you build a strategy around this and start laddering with it then yes you could be banned.

That's ridiculous. They wouldn't ban someone for exploiting gameplay. They would just fix it as soon as possible. You would probably assume they banned everyone who used SCVs to repair thors, even though it was clearly an exploit? | ||

Just like the way they have exploited a bunch of bosses in the past. They first tried to cover up the bug exploit, but it wasn't long til their longs where posted. | ||

My point is assuming blizzard won't ban someone just because it's their fault the bug is there is a bad idea. | ||

lol blizzard acting like the US gov't and threatening to ban the OP on the blizzard forums. Pretty funny glitch I was surprised we didnt/dont see more things like this. Lan and private servers will fix them pretty good. All i want for christmas is LAN, Adun | ||
