Blizzard's designers are morons compared to how they used to be 10 years ago. What's there to do about it?

I'm glad this thread got bumped. In my opinion, this thread should stay bumped until Blizzard decides to listen to the people who buy their games. Qxc makes an intelligent, well-articulated argument for the Ghost's snipe ability.

Agreed, it's such a useless unit now

How was the ghost OP in the first place?

In a battle between a Terran and a Zerg army which has Broods...didnt the Zerg fuck up in the first place when he allows the Ghosts to close his Broodlords to snipe them (Broods range 11, Ghost range 6)? Broods have so much stopping power and imho u kinda lost the battle in the first place if u cant secure ur broods from being sniped.
A maxed out Brood/Infestor army now seems pretty imba.

With the Ghost Terran had a versatile weapon vs. fast Zerg T3 tech switches. Now, its possible that u shredder an Ultra army (in case u have bigger army value or better micro, lets just say we beat the ultras cauz we were prepared and had a ton of Marauders), move forward to Zergs base and face broods who kill all ur army. Its hard to have an perfectly "balanced" army that can handle a max out Ultra heavy Zerg and then one larva round later a maxed out Broodlord Zerg.

I dont wanna dig too deep into this. Im not a high level player.

What about a cooldown or reduce the max energy of the ghosts if it rly was op... which...I still doubt. would like to hear sth about that.

What we all know...Blizz took a lot of epicness out of late game TvZ. The ghost was wesome. Was he too awesome? Idk. But now hes useless and we dont even see Nukes anymore. No Epicness anymore. And thats sad.

Old post but no. Snipe had a long range and it countered everything zerg made except for zerglings. Like hardcore just watch youtube videos of it.
When I think of something else, something will go here
