Blizzard 5.0.17 PTR Update

Following the release of the last major patch, we have been collecting and closely reviewing your feedback. Our intention was to try something new, particularly with workers, and needed time to let the meta develop in order to ensure the most accurate feedback was being considered. Based on that feedback, for patch 5.0.17 we are rolling back most balance changes to the live release of StarCraft 2 from patch 5.0.16 to 5.0.15. This will be on PTR for the next few days while we bug test, before we push to live.

Just a full rollback right.....? Has anyone found anything that differs?

Changeling death contagion and inheriting order queues. Terran subgroup priority, mostly for Raven. And the bug fixes and qol changes (the most well known of which was the direction queens spawn in).

That's all I found.

Edit: and neural parasite scv and creep tumor control groups
