The rules were updated. I guess the OP wasn't updated to reflect that, but TB made a post somewhere. Basically they're just using the mod rules of being able to remove it if you want to. |

NonY allowed mothership - it was up to him. |

They can allow these if they want from what TB said. LZ also got medivac earlier. |

If NonY gets out a Mothership, what can EG do to stop it? I can't see Infestors doing much, given that Liquid has tanks and Colossi to keep them out of Neural Parasite range.
I'm pretty sure NonY is the win condition here. |

| each player have the option of leaving vetoed units in game, i think eg had medivacs earlier, with their heal ability. Nony gambled and left mothership in his potential que |

We've made a couple of alternations to the format which we think will improve the overall dynamic of the game
1) In response to comments that Zerg got drop ability whereas other races did not, we have enabled warp prisms and medivacs, however they do not have their corresponding abilities. Warp prisms cannot deploy and warp in units and do not as a result count as a psi field. Medivacs cannot heal. Otherwise they can be built as normal. This will allow for more interesting games as well as micro opportunities.
2) There is now a reroll feature. Each player may reroll their unit but must accept the second result. This is done on a player by player basis and in the 2 minute warm-up phase before each game teams should discuss whether or not their composition needs changing.
3) This is not so much a change as a clarification. All races have access to their respective detector, but with abilities disabled. This means Ravens and Overseers are fair-game. If a player randoms Raven, he will have access to all of the abilities of said unit.

Sounds great. Awesome to see the rerolling feature in place.
I wonder if you could put back in Corruptors, Medivacs, Mothership and Warp Prism now that you have rerolls. I once saw a game with a killer medivac/mothership/mutalisk deathfleet and it was hilarious AND effective.
But for a tournament play, it is sensible to err on the side of making things more even.
Cheers to TB for breaking free of the 1v1 mold with this crazy fun tournament idea!
Basically, it's up to them. The maps we now have allow players to enable those units on a player by player basis. If they want to risk it with them, they are more than welcome to try.

I think TB overestimates the Mothership's power.
After all it's still just one and super slow at that. But yeh, it's going to be useful, certainly. |
