I do agree that multi-faceted units that can be effective if played correctly in more than a handful of scenarios are cool, it's just not how the rest of SC2 is designed. Having ONE unit with so many applications when every other unit in game is essentially one-dimensional really makes no sense at all. Again, I'm not saying that it's good to have one-dimensional units - but it's how all of Starcraft 2 is, with the exception of Ghosts and, to a lesser extent, Ravens. | ||

but really, if you are going to nerf the ghost to practically unusable, I think spectres would be a good compromise. Ghosts are now useless. Now snipe does less damage than fungal to workers. Sure you get 3 shots, but fungal can hit like ten. Snipe is now an anti caster spell, which it was before. I would like spectres. | ||

Just because the Ghosts is too strong against 1 or 2 units doesnt mean its strong against others. Nerfing it this much would kill its potential for doing anything else. | ||

A bit wierd that blizzard made this change when they put so much thought into thair balance changes and qxc just comes up with a better solution on state of the game in 5 seconds  Agreement. I would really like to hear a valid counter-argument on their part. It even seems that implementing his solution (raising base slightly and adding a -massive modifier) is just as simple as their solution (lowering the damage and adding +psionic modifier). | ||

I mean, that NP is rarely used anymore, cause everything a zerg normally wants to NP, is too far out of range. There are of course other situations that I'd like to see more, such as NPing Immortals, and Archons, and such. | ||

This would be SO much better dammit. If they nerf snipe like they proposed i will never be able to open ghosts in TvT again !? Snipe has ONLY proved to be a little too good against BL/Ultralisks. Don't see why you would want to make it bad against almost everything? Really nice written QXC  | ||
