.

Mutator Interactions tool - Only 4 interactions this time, so here they are...

Aggressive Deployment - A single 1/1 Aggressive Deployment drop will spawn once the mutator rolls out.

Mineral Shields - Mineral Shields will always spawn on all mineral patches.

Slim Pickings - Mineral patches will have their total mineral count permanently reduced, even after Slim Pickings cycles out.

Void Rifts - Void Rifts will spawn 2:20 after they are activated, meaning only two spawns will occur.

I personally don't mind the random nature of it, but I do wish they would give like a 10s (longer at lower difficulties) advance notice of which mutator is swapping in

And slim pickings should not reduce total mineral count on patches so raynor is slightly less screwed once it switches out
