So I was watching ZeNEXTandongho stream and after a while he logged into the korean PTR and showed us the new roach range in 1.3.5 . . .

[image loading]


Seems pretty imbalanced, cause now you can deny the Protoss the 4th gas on Tal'Darim.

This is of course not final, but I really hope Blizz won't go through with it.

Looks like the lings are moving away, so it looks a lot longer than it actually is...however range 6 is pretty crazy. o_o

Ehh...not really. But as asked above, where can we find the notes. I'm looking now but can't seem to discover them anywhere.

this has got to be a joke, right?

seriously this is the worst balance change ever lol but unfortunately sounds like something blizzard would do; buff the race that is currently having the highest win percentage, and nerf the race that is losing the most, solely because some ragers on a stream demanded it.

I think its just a bug where the unit runs away at a fast rate, like when you attack a blink stalker and it blinks away, the animation follows the stalker and so you get a ridiculous range.

well if its true thats retarded, but I don't think it's for real. the ling were probably running, or maybe it had to do with the roaches being on a ramp or something.

what do you mean no? range 6 same as stalker, the cost is almost half. they get a stalker for half the price.

they are even faster than a stalker when upgraded, granted stalker gets blink but if they get range 6 no ammount of blink will matter. and they hit harder.

Wth man you're just messing with us right lol? I'm a hardcore biased Zerg player and even I think this is ridiculous, roach range is just fine imo.

also stalkers can shoot up. but yeah this change is really, really dumb if they implement it. why not just fix the hydra to not suck instead of turning roaches into one T_____T

I mean, what you typed originally was a half priced stalker, and that's what I didn't agree with. I'm not saying this change wouldn't make roaches too strong; I'm just saying it's not a half priced stalker is all. When the roach can attack air then we can agree it's a half priced stalker.
