Is there a source? Has someone in the community replicated it? I bet Mr Minerals is on the case, best posts ever.

More detailed instructions:This bug is about Baneling
The Baneling deal double damage to uphill units
Some believe this is because of an update in January '23

This is BIG, and yet just one example of how bad a job the so-called balance team has been doing.

A bug has nothing to deal with the balance team.

You won't be able to prevent some users to throw that lazy shortcut, but if anything, blame Phil Spencer, not the Balance Team (conspiracy theorist hat, maybe he's a Terran hater ?)

Exaggerating on purpose to underscore how funny these comments are.

But there's wondering whether there's any test servers where they troubleshoot the patches before releasing them live ...
I'm just a cynical video game enjoyer who is probably unfazed by many business dealings many would find utterly distasteful, while not strictly illegal by the law as seen in a general sense in the world.

Probably isn't game breaker since it seems to only affect the first unit cause the others will get the vision? nice find tho

Baneling splash might kill multiple units at once. Also depending on how it interacts with burrow (if a bane unborrows on a ramp while there's no vision of the top does that deal double damage?) it could make baneling landmines a lot stronger.

But yeah most of the time it probably doesn't matter much because Toss usually has oracles/obs and Terran usually has medivacs, though weird marine moveouts could be impacted. It's probably less impactful than +1 collosus range was, but needs to be patched out ASAP either way.

I'm not sure
But Some people think it has nothing to do with vision,It has to do with where you are on the hill

If it's only the attack target that takes double damage, it should be relatively minor at high levels as banes are generally move-commanded. Of course know that the bug is known, some people will certainly start abusing it however small the difference may be.

I guess it's especially significant against e.g. ghosts and zealots where it'll make banes trade efficiently even against small numbers. Or in ZvZ against the occasional roach/queen wall on a ramp (which already mostly happens against ling/bane all-ins...)

Considering the recent history of the game, it will probably take ages to get fixed too

Well the intern for the balance team is also the intern for the bug team, d'uh.

Seems like a timely opportunity to bring back Feardragon video about the danger of patches in this day and age.
