We decided to post this thread early so everyone knows what to expect for the playoffs well before it happens.

Why not just no Mind Control on workers?

Why not just no Mind Control on workers?

That is the actual rule (which will be applied not just to the playoffs but to the entire league). To be more specific, mind controlling a worker will remain legal (for example, as a means to effectively destroy it), but constructing a command center or a hatchery will be banned

So if this happens the game is over? And that player who got their worker stolen wins?

Yes, breaking this rule is equivalent to a forfeit. if you scan your opponent having terran buildings you can immediately leave and report the game.

Right on

400 psi on an unlimited mineral patch. Sounds fair

Broodwar on fastest map is a joke anyways. That's why I don't play league anymore

It actual takes minimal effort to block a base in with cans temps reavers. P is the by far the easiest and most overpowered race on a fastest map.

yup

Really doesn't take that much skill to obtain map control.. lol but everyone knows this. Your just trying to sound like you have skill in this game.. where you and everyone knows if you played a full season as random you would have 50% win ratio.

Next rule will be “no probe glitch recalls” I bet. Noobs (no offence but it’s true) making rules about what way you can use units is just crazy and is eventually gonna ruin the game.

FYI mind control on workers is banned in most pro play.
