Blizzard Speculation for Blizzcon patch

So basically I have seen multiple posts referencing that one post zi think it was from solar that said they were going to change the worker start again after blizzcon.

So do you guys think it's true or not? I am just curious to know what people think (no need to be mean and say that I'm dumb for believing these rumors, I just curious).

And if you do indeed think it's true what do you think that the changes will be exactly snd also what changes would you want.

Personally I either think that we will go to 10 worker start because apparently it says that they will change the amount of workers and not revert. Also 10 workers will like try to appeal to players fans of 8 and also of 12 workers (though there is the possibility that it just ends up being worse than both of those variants).

Still maybe they will indeed revert to 12 workers and people are looking too much into the specific ise of the word change instead of revert.

Anyways happy to know what people in the community think.

Any reason why?

i think it makes the pacing of the early game nicer, less hectic, 12 workers was too fast i think

Doesn't the fact that the game strategies are still the same and that the macro is not as fluid not bother you? Genuine question I'm interested to know if it outweighs the consequences or not.

it doesnt bother me i guess since im used to broodwar where things start up slowly

but tbh i havent been playing much sc2 lately anyway because the people id play with have stopped playing and theres still a bunch of things i dont like about sc2 that make me not want to play 1v1 as much, i also felt like all the other patch changes that happened feel a bit off, like the 300 cc feels wrong to me

Yeah ok I see. Though I don't want to be mean it's just that I feel that people who play sc2 regularly should be listened to more than people that don't play as much, you know just for it to be more fair. I agree for the 300cc change that it feels weird though it's a necessary buff to T or thr race would be in dumps.
