should stay in game imo, because it only makes a canon rush more fun to watch. They are really easy to stop anyway. | ||

So far the reasons I've seen are: 1. You can do it in broodwar. 2. Protoss be so far behind if they cannon rush and can't do this glitch. 3. Omg, you nub just get better at the game and it won't work. 4. It's not a bug, cause drone floating in BW was totally didn't get patched out. In all reality, I could do counter point for all these arguments but that's just petty. I merely would point out this reminds me of drone floating which I abused the hell out of but it did get patched out. Pathing will always be a issue in RTS and it will be abused. It should be removed since you do not normally expect a probe to be able to move thru a solid wall since it's not one of the abilities of a probe. This shouldn't be a high priority for the patches but it should be address within the year(s?). | ||

Any Probe that gets stuck where it should not be able to exist will find the closest path it can out of the wall of buildings. But it will only go a path that's adjacent to a structure. So you won't be getting any Probes through mineral lines or through rocks. You could potentially get one through another player's wall though, but it would be blatantly obvious and would require multiple Pylons to do so. | ||

Build Order scouting Neither of those are relevant to what I'm talking about. Before trying to be a total dickwad, make sure you actually know what you're talking about, ok? Here, I'll try to make it clear for you. Typically when people cannon rushed the wall, they did not have vision above. Now the cannons can shoot above with sight. On top of that, doing the cannon rush at the ramp previously made people play blind. Now that they can scout the opponent's build order, they can react much, much sooner and play significantly more optimally. Neither of these are related to what you're talking about, unless you're suggesting that it allows the person cannon rushing to read your build order via scouting. However, by your post, that's clearly irrelevant. Toodles. | ||

Oh yeah, and to the people saying it was in BW, well you couldn't completely block a ramp with just 2 pylons. If that same possibility had been in SCBW I could almost guarantee you it would be banned. The mineral cargo trick was a bug and it was banned because it was too powerful, same thing here really. | ||

However, I do agree that this should be kept. This is harmless, and 2 probes were sent for the cannon rush anyway. A strong cannon rush could easily be accomplished by sending a probe up the ramp and having the other one build behind the ramp. | ||
