After 14 years, a StarCraft 2 player has finally survived the "In Utter Darkness" mission, which is designed to be unwinnable, by refining the "Archon Toilet" strategy. This involves using the Protoss mothership's Vortex and Mass Recall abilities to trap units in a safe spot, creating a stalemate where enemies can't reach them. Although this doesn't result in a traditional victory screen, it allows the Protoss to survive indefinitely, marking a unique achievement in the game's history.

The StarCraft II 5.0.14 patch introduces several balance changes following community feedback. Key updates include increased range for Protoss Shield Batteries, adjustments to the Mothership and Ultralisk model sizes, and a Ghost supply cost increase. The patch aims to enhance gameplay stability and address early and late-game dynamics, particularly in Protoss versus Terran and Zerg versus Protoss matchups. Some proposed changes, like those for the Thor, were removed due to negative feedback, while others, such as the Ghost nerf, will be monitored for impact.
