Results of the player survey regarding controversial changes.
Participants in the survey: Dawidu, Szopa, Gomunguls, HellLight, Lizard, F1n, Diabler, Tim0n, Unutkon, Demonar, Master of Mind, Lightinin, Kexibq.
1. Reduce blocks on the respawn roads by decreasing the value of certain objects. Naga Bank, Cyclops Stockpiles, Imp Cache and Mansion - 1000 value. Secondary resources - 1500 value (gems, sulfur, mercury, crystals).
4 for / 8 against / 1 abstained
Blocks on the roads limit scouting and thereby increase the significance of trading. But on the other hand, because you will see a smaller part of the respawn, it is harder to determine when it makes sense to take a restart.
2. Disable artifacts Cloak +2 speed, Golden Bow and Medal +3 / +3.
5 for / 7 against / 1 abstained
Of the 3 artifacts, the most requested removals were +2 speed and the Medal, because they provide too strong a boost on the respawn. Those against say that these artifacts add variety and affect the game no more than winding roads, object dimensions, and other random elements on the map.
3. Remove the external market since it is not generated on Inferno or Swamp lands.
4 for / 7 against / 2 abstained
The argument against is that this is a unique feature and it is somehow also taken into account during trading.
4. 2 Dragon Utopia on the respawn instead of 1 (this change is already present in the tournament version from mss).
8 for / 0 against / 5 abstained
Those who abstained said it's hard to say anything about this change without testing, and Gom suggested removing Dragon Utopia from the respawn entirely. In theory, 2 Dragon Utopia means a better chance that one of them will be near the road. On the other hand, if both Dragon Utopia are hidden while the opponent has the opposite — such a situation is even worse.
There is also one slightly less important change that was not included in the survey.
Pandoras with Archdevils, Archangels and Phoenixes have been replaced by non-upgraded T7 boxes (i.e., it will be impossible to find a base speed higher than 16 on the map without building an upgrade or using diplomacy). For comparison — in 2.64a, the number of boxes for Archangels and Phoenixes was simply reduced.
