Chances of your average Bronze league player doing it are approximately nil, and even up to most Masters players I'm guessing it will be largely ignored. I cant do this and multitask AND keep the probes paired on close patches. Im not doing this. | ||

The first mistake you make in the game will totally nulify the cute mineral micro, such as a supply block, unless you play at a korean skill level, so no, you don't have to practice it to beat those plat players. | ||

Splitting barely doing anything and automine have dumbed the early game down enough in terms of how hard it is, this could bring some skill back into a part of the game that shouldn't look much different between diamond and gm atm. Why the fuck are people complaing about this being to hard or w/e, be happy that you can even makro properly with less than 200 apm in this game. I never understood why people like games to be easier, I want my starcraft to be as hard as possible. | ||

This wont ever be a thing everyone needs to be able to do. The advantage is too small for the amount of work for it to be worth practicing anyone below grand master. Most people trying this will probably end up getting fewer minerals due to them messing up. | ||

This only gives an advantage to hyper competitive players and is a way to differentiate yourself mechanically. How is that a bad thing exactly? | ||

My guess is that the optimal thing to do is to quickly stack the near patches first and then boost the far ones for as long as possible. | ||

firstly, I try and reproduce what is shown in the replay, does not work for me in a ladder match. Secondly, after completing the replay, my ladder shows a loss in 1v1, though the game never took place, and I get an Error screen when I try to access the match details. So, replay, plus a bug in 1.5 (surprise surprise) means lost imaginary match. [[ face palm]] | ||
