The game has been out for about 2 months and you think a patch change announcement this early won't be released until the EXPANSION?

Like all of these except for supply before bunker, terran without proxyrax is terran without terran

Wait, SubtleArt, what? Last patch was just subtle tweaks (except tanks, which mostly just affected tvp and made TvT more interesting).



And this one makes reaper openings completely useless

Yeah, I'm not so sure about this depot before rax thing...



Because the only counter to 6pool is 10rax...

Regardless, maybe requiring supply depot to build reapers and/or bunker would be good. Requiring it to build a barracks removes potentially funny cheese victories.

Hellion kiting Roach would be a bitch of a chore now (hellion 5 range, roach's patch range may be either 3.5 or 4), and basically impossible if Roach has speed upgrade. Reaper kitting Roach is impossible even for Boxer due to the micro intensity involved (reaper range 4.5, patch roach range either 3.5 or 4).

Also, terran walloff against zerg may be horrendous and non-viable on certain maps, especially the ones without ramps. Hopefully a marauder behind a depot can still shoot at the roach. And even if that is the case, the Terran need to constantly micro that marauder to keep it alive.

Also, the rax after depot thing...is that really necessary? Isn't cheese just part of what Starcraft is?

I don't quite understand the reaper upgrade on factory either. Reaper strats are iffy to begin with due to the high risk involved. Now it's completely invalid. The most use that a Terran will have for a reaper is to build a single one early for scouting and minor harass. There is no longer a meaning to building more than 2 in a game.

If Zerg can 6 pool, why can't we 10 rax?

Reaper will be the new Scout of SCII.

Wait, we already have the Mothership for that role.

Maybe BW queen or ghost? lol.

I felt like Blizzard's tweaks were gradually heading in the right direction already but they might have overdone it this time. People were complaining that bigger changes were needed but they clearly meant instead of the little tweaks not on top of them.

I hope their answer to Terrans having a lot of early game options isn't just to eliminate a bunch of them so that Zergs will start guessing right more often.
No I'm never serious.

What the hell? I play zerg an think all these buffs combined are too massive!

No more reaper harrass, no more zerg proof protoss wall + FE.

And structure health buffs?

Keep in mind that these are 'planned changes' which means that they are not certain. Also not there is not date set for these changes, so they may come with HotS...


wait whats this about no more zerg proof walls as toss?

Because in lower leagues, not only do lots not wall, but lots don't scout. It'll be a problem in lower leagues.

Do you really think that balance changes are aimed to change the meta-game of bronze league players?
