    Yeah, that's an assumption made by me. I've asked for clarification on this in the official thread. More importantly, I'm eager to hear if the ability can be used on allied buildings.

    If you follow professional SC at all, you'll know how important relative timing windows are. Time Warp is going to make predicting a Protoss opponent much more difficult, and therefor SC2 in general is less predictable.

    Good.

    We haven't really seen anything indicating it's gone, have we? Right now it's in that weird limbo along with a lot of other abilities throughout the game. I think PC is still in the game

    Edit: oh god double edit because squid just edited.

    Blues have said its gone. And no Demo PC was not broken. Blizzard said why they removed it and it had nothing to do with your paranoid "mass effect" ravings.

    =| Well, maybe, but then I was the only person who suggested and discussed it for a while. At least as far as I saw.

    I'm not saying Blizzard got the idea from me, but... uh... I did suggest it. And as far as I saw I was the only one... in fact I recall people IGNORED it as a suggestion! Grr! Damn you all.

    This is a very old idea from the very begining of the macro debate. Kinda makes you wonder if Blizzard was reading the forums back then: rolleyes:
    I don't remember that... I'm going to find where I made the suggestion and discussed it with Matt II... but I can't remember where it was. Sigh.

    C'est la vie I suppose.

    No, they specifically said PC (and Argus Link) was gone.

    Link please.

    Edit: Oh yeah, I remember. What I meant to say is that a similar resource ability is not necessarily gone. :s

    Allot of people ignored it because it was so old. Recently I think Nicol resurrected it.
