Well, so I guess every time creep is generated (via hatcheries, tumors, or ovies) this will manifest itself? That's kind of a big deal. I wonder if there are other things that some pros know.. In a few GSL games there were some unusually 'lucky' proxies.

I'm surprised it took this long to find this bug. I suppose nobody really paid attention to the flowers, understandably.

Looks like zergs have a vendetta against flowers now.

Edited the OP once again since Blizzard actually noticed it !
It didnt even take 24h for them to notice the bug. Everyone is hating on Blizzard for being super slow patching but I think that was a damn fast response at least.

Lets see how long it will take untill its fixed - i still have hope in Blizzard.

Hah. I thought I'd try this in ladder if I met zerg in LT. Good thing it's only shown on ultra, makes me not want to do the effort of changing stuff just to be able to abuse a bug

Trololol @ tvz in LT. Most imbalanced map for any matchup imo, this only adds to how badly zerg suffers from the map against T.

I run my settings in medium and I could notice flowers missing.

I have everything on lowest possible settings, and I was unable to see flowers through fog.

ROFL strategical flower placement.

Zergs shouldnt pick all the flowers so we dont know where they are.

So Zerg are revolutionists for the Flower Power movement? Hehe.

On topic, good to see players reporting it, regardless of how it actually came about. :O

One of the most Hilarious and RIDICULOUS doodad mistakes to come across this game. Period.

Havn't read the thread entirely, but would this also work for expansion across the map late game ?

This actually works on metalopolis aswell. I just checked and if you look carfully at each expo there are cracks in the concrete by the mineral patches. The cracks are no present on a zergs spawn point
