Boxer Allied Mines @ OSL

i remember the good ol' hunters days. where i used this bug myself an had some laughs. its not a easy thing to pull of. so i don't see why its illegal. my point being that it takes some skill. its not like its a auto-win.

yeah it should be banned but you have to admit, it was creative!

it is banned. noob

i was agreeing with another comment, of course i know its banned.

toss cant scan

@teddison11 But they can obviously build observers. Which any D level player should know to do. Doesn't matter if you're playing PvZ or PvT or even PvP, you always get observers.

the spider mine isn't a unit. It doesn't do what you tell it in any other part of the game, why should it start now?

In a way I agree with you, in being able to stop units from attacking. However allying a player should not be the way to do it. If there were a way to issue a "stop" command to spider mines everything would be dandy. I suppose the rational is that the spider mine is just a remote drone, and if it senses an enemy, it attacks, whereas the lurker is an actual unit under your command, who could be told not to attack until ready.

Allied mines SHOULD be banned.

Starcraft is about skill of units and production.

Taking advantage of a system setting to change outcome of game doesn't require any skill.

It's cleaver and effective, but it goes against the game itself since there are no commands being issued.

It's semi hacking.

allied miens are already banned from proleagues and ICCup
