I am wondering how many people that knew about it and just said nothing, using it to an advantage.

ROFL

does anyone know if there are any doodads within starting creep distance on any other maps? I'll have to check the other ones when I'm able to play.

LT down, DQ up I guess.

This is actually huge. Blizzard better get this fixed ASAP.

Until then should tournaments actually consider removing LT from their map pool? This is a massive disadvantage for Zerg players after all.

I started a thread about this on Blizzard forums, hopefully Blizzard will notice. Please like it, so it will be noticed:

I thought the patch in beta was about actually seeing creep around trees and stuff, not flowers disappearing.

I can confirm that this is visible on all start locations on LT.

This used to happen with doodad trees in some other maps (Desert Oasis?) during the beta and was quickly fixed, I am surprised it took this long for someone to notice the same happens in lotem. One can only hope it gets fixed asap.


It happend on Kulas Revine, Blizzard fixed this pretty quick back then(if I remember correctly)

Nice find, hope this gets fixed asap.

god damn

haven't they done this before? they're constantly patching terrain so that it doesn't give away the zerg's position. it used to show the creep-ified foliage through the fog of war, and now it's textures.

well at least what is giving the zerg away is less significant with every patch.
