What the hell Blizzard? Ever since you were bought by Google everything has just gone fucking crazy. Zealots that fly and explode? What were you thinking!? That is so imbalanced! Don't get me started on marines being able to build their own bunkers. Yeah great idea, Blizz, I thought we left free bunkers behind in SC2.

Do you know what pisses me off the most? The SCIV strategy forum is total garbage! No one knows what they're talking about, it's just a damn noobfest where all the comments by anyone who is any good get drowned—not that anyone can ever be good at SCIV since user input has been simplified so much.

When did we decide Nexuses that can pick themselves up and walk to other expansions was a good idea? Ok, ok, so in SC III we let Zerg Hatcheries burrow underground and move very slowly, and in SC:BW we let Command Centers fly, but why let Nexuses do it as well? Is there no more diversity between the races? Are we back to Orcs vs Humans, where every unit has a near equivalent counterpart?

And what about TL? Why is TL picking up every new game Blizzard makes? SCIV is a piece of shit compared to SCIII. SCIII was a piece of shit compared to... well, not SC2. Everyone knows SC2 was a total joke. But SCIII and SC2 were worthless compared to SC:BW. Now that was a game I could get behind. Twenty years ago, when I was but a boy with passion and dreams, there was SC:BW. But now what do we have? Carriers that can harvest minerals for 25 energy? C'mon, that's fucking stupid.

I don't even care if all the best foreigners have moved onto SCIV. They're finnicky bastards. Can't even stick to a game if their lives depended on it. Who the hell even follows foreign StarCraft? Korean BW has been the only scene worth watching for the last thirty years. Trust me, I'm forty and wise—I know things. SCIV may have the best graphics of any game yet, but the game play has been lost in the mists of time, and Blizz/Google doesn't know shit about making games anymore.

I said it 20 years ago, and I'll say it now:

BroodWar Forever.

Brood War is like chess.
Even chess received patches,
Now they're both like wine.
A build is not a guess, an estimation or a hunch, a feeling, or a foolish intuition. A build is a dependable, unwavering, unarguably accurate, portrayer of your ambition.

lol @ blizz google, well at least it's google they might be more reasonable than ehem activi

but, I'm really saddened with BW being away from WCG now.. I mean, what are the odds of getting a pro to hang out with you guys
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Pfft, you didn't even mention the Mutalisks that could land and morph into flying lurkers.
And here we were thinking TERRAN was imbalanced in sc2 - ever since they added lumber into SCIV, terran has never stood a chance (I mean, creep automatically mining lumber?! What were they thinking?

Edit: God, don't even get me on how they removed the need for keyboards - the fact that you can input your buildorder before the game and it carries it out automatically is COMPLETELY absurd! They are making this game friendlier and friendlier for noobs!

In SCIV, science vessels can irradiate Zerg buildings.

Choose light/dark protoss.
Then pick one of seven tribes,
Each with 3 bloodlines.

I hate how people can’t just let SCIII go. It’s an old, worn out game that only has nostalgia working for it now. Hell, half of the battle in it was just trying to navigate poorly structured interface. Having to select units before issuing orders? Who thought that was a good idea? And don’t get me started about the time before unit production facilities had the “make units” and “stop making units” switches. Having to select buildings and click on a picture each and every time you want to make a new unit is just barbaric. It’s people like you who are fragmenting the starcraft scene and weakening esports as a whole. Just look at the graphics. Clearly the graphics requiring 3d glasses is superior to the trash from SCIII, Why can’t you see it is just a better game?

And Carriers HAVE to be able to mine minerals, how else will we be able to reenact chapter 12 from book 15 “the rise of reinfested Kerrigan”?

There are lots of people new to the scene that have never played SCIII, and they all think that SCIV is the best game ever. You are in the minority and therefore wrong.

What I love is how Blizz officially killed chat channels in sc3. I mean come on they were a joke in sc2 so they fixed it by... taking them out? I mean WTF. I'm not buying sc4 I can tell you that much.

I agree. The addition of being able to issue orders telepathically as protoss has once again, for the fourth time, made protoss the easy race. I mean cmon, now you don't even have to press 1a, all you have to do is think of the term "protoss" and all your units attack.

I also feel that the addition of the fourth race, the Xel-Naga, is obviously imba. Seriously, they are the father race of the Protoss AND the Zerg, it's obvious that they would be a counter to both races. And ever since tanks started shooting SCVs...

It's just not the same anymore.
