Remove Extractor TRICK

Just stop seething so much holy…

are you sure about this? 13 Ovi 14 Drone and when Ovi pops you should have 2 larva.

Yeah it’s that way, dunno what lethe is smoking. That’s the reason 13 ov is standard, just like it was back in wol 9/10 supply overlord

GUYS PLEASE !!!

Can we universally agree that zergs ability to get units above current supply limit is a BUG and should be fixed ?

If you disagree with the above, perhaps video games are not for you.

Projecting your incompetence are you

Yes it is a bug ! How can you get your units production above current supply limit ? This goes against the rules of RTS video game.

I know you are protoss player. Are you controlled by neural parasite or something ?

Give me any valid reason why this idiocy should be in the game. I understand that you play zerg but c’mon at least try to be objective. This is not even balance complain. It’s just stupid that you can break rules of a video game.

i play terran, stop seething. if infested terran were in the game it would have been something. a zerg cheating out an extra probe or two isnt anything to complain about

Then you must be the most stupid terran player in the entire SC2 community. Get lost bro. I don’t wanna talk to you anymore. You’re just dumb to admit things that are obviously against the rules.

Lets say you build a Tank and a supply Depot gets destroyed. Now you are supply Blocked but your siege Tank is still building. Is it a Bug too ?

Because i dont Care about Things that dont really influence the Game.

Comparing destroyed supply building to extractor trick is really dumb. In the first case you got units above your supply limit naturally as a result of now missing building. In the latter case you get units above supply limit as a result of abusing illegal mechanism that should be banned from the game.

If you don’t care then why are you defending this ? :smiley: Now you are contradicting yourself.

After watching ShowTime verse Reynor I came to the conclusion that this does influence the game. How many more drones would’ve been lost had it not been for the extractor trick.

Well im not? I mean what are you even on about ? We dont need to erase every little Bit of the Game only because some terran cried about. You were claiming that the extractor Trick would give an economical boost but now you want to See it being removed Out of spite. Like some Guys Here mentioned: its Not a bug. Its a mechanic that is used since broodwar.

We gonna build 20 extractors and win every single Game ezpz. How can Someone kill your drones If you Just Morph Them all to buildings :smiley:

The look that Harstem and DNS gave Reynor after he won the series says it all. Extractor trick will be the first thing on the chopping block.

That isn’t the extractor trick, most of the time I see it being used with spore crawlers anyway, and can I remind you that Terran workers can repair each other and Protoss workers can have a shield battery repair them.

I doubt that. There are 2 possible ways or how drones count to supply:

  1. There is a variable for drones, which either counts them for supply or not (+1 if true, +0 if not, while morphing).
  2. In the supply calculation it is determinated that the drones “disappear”, when morphing into structures.

I would really like to hear, which of these is true, because if 2nd is true, I think it will never be changed then.

the fact that this thread wasnt instantly buried speaks volumes

Extractor trick can be fixed very easily as i said in the beginning of the thread:

Drone is killed when construction finishes.

When zerg building is currently being built technically drone is still alive, so how can it free up supply at this point ?
