Couldn't you've just waited until they actually released the info :p
Up until this point everyone has been so focused on the Obelisk. Anytime conversation turns to the OC or Queen people always interject "Obelisks worst fix that first". Well now is the chance to find out what people think of the OC/Queen before the Protoss mechanic steals the limelight again.Quote:

Well now fix SL and MULE by making them not APM sinks. Duh.Quote:

There is no "now". We know they're fixing it, but we don't know any sort of specifics.
And how do you do that without interfereing with this?Quote:

For instance, if you are playing Zerg and are micro-oriented and I'm playing Zerg and I'm economy-oriented, we're kind of playing two different races — not exactly, but a little bit. We're having a very different experience, and that style difference now becomes the interesting problem for both of us, and that is what we're really pursuing with a lot of this stuff.
