The ladder maps were also rotated.

Yup this is definitely the same balance team that pushed through the Cyclone Rework a couple cycles ago.

NeWHoriZonS 57 Posts 42 minutes ago #4 I cannot express how fucking dumb it is to push that 3 days after PTR 2 and 1 day after an EMERGENCY HOTFIX because of how broken the larva spawn rate was. And don't get fooled, the "fixed" larva spawn rate still makes Zerg OP Literally everyone is saying this patch as a whole is a bad idea, from all races/kind of players This is genuinely the one patch that could break the game/split the community, it is so bad in so many ways it's insane We just threw 10 years of experience by the window for nothing Hopefully this is reverted VERY soon
