With the release of 5.0 I have notice an omission that I would like to get the input of the community on.
The nature of harassment in the current meta has gotten to a point of predictability, scout-ability, counter-ability that has gotten to a point were I feel we need a new statistic to access the players position in the game.
I think adding a “Resources Gathered” tab to the spectator/replay view in starcraft would add light to the effectiveness of harassment in SC2 since harassment like adept harass and Liberator harass obviously does more damage if it kills workers it does a significant amount of damage in terms of idle workers. This can some what be represented in the post matches graphs with active workers graph but no tournament uses these features.
I suggest a “resources gathered” tab in the spectator view to allow observers to gain perspective on how much harassment has prevent the victim from mining. Possibly this tab would be divided into minerals and gas but I’m not sure that division would be necessary.
I’ve been thinking about this since I got back into SC2 a few months ago and would love to hear others response to this concept.
