But really in the end we will make 1-2 templars just to feedback ghosts and not bother with storm.Most of Terrans anyway have almost completely skipped Marines and marauders have enough hp to move out of such small radius.
Have to test going Colossi and have 2 templars for feedback only.

Im sorry, but that doesnt really say much. imageshack?

I should also clarify that i'm new to PC

Step 1: During a game press your print screen button on your keyboard. (near the top right corner, labeled as PrtScn).

Step 2: Open up the program paint. Paste (Ctrl + V). Save image.

Step 3: Go to an image hosting site such as tinypic.com, and upload your picture.

also when you're ingame, press print scrn, its a button above your backspace. once you've done that you can paste (ctrl + V) into the Paint application, and save it as a .jpg, .png, whatever.

then in order to post it on the internet, you have to host it with an imagehosting site such as

imageshack
tinypic

or others


For some reason I only get a picture of my desktop when I do that. Do you know how to fix this?

if he makes pure marauder you can mass immortals from 2 robos in no time and roll him. marines are necessary dps in the current build, so they'll have to have some mixed in which is where colossi or temps come in.

ALSO you could feedback and storm. yeh both! so crazy.

hmmm i smell a troll.

Pressing print screen makes the game take its own screenshot actually which gets saved as a jpg in a subfolder of your main sc2 beta one in 'my documents'.

Let r := the radius of the old psi storm.

Area of a circle = pi*r^2

% area reduction = 1 - (new area) / (old area)
% area reduction = 1 - pi * (0.75r)^2 / pi *r^2
% area reduction = 1 - 0.75^2 = 1 - 0.5625 = 0.4375 = 43.75%

Somebody test if speedlings can run trough a casted storm and still live..
I think they might make it.

I think the radius nerf may have been a bit too much. Protoss units have been getting the nerf stick pretty bad lately...

To be precise, Psi Storm only has 56.25% the area it used to have (deduction of 43.75%). I'm not going to let people believe it "only" had a deduction of 25% when that's terribly wrong >.>

It takes 2 seconds (4 ticks) of Storm to kill a speedling. Speedlings have a movement speed of 4.6991. I BELIEVE that is Matrices per Second; if so, a Speedling should be able to escape taking maybe only 1 tick, while the old storm would mean the Speedling would take maybe 2.

Zerglings, on the other hand, having a movement speed of 2.9531...Hmm. The old storm would cause 3 ticks to be taken, and the new storm would mean 2 ticks.

Note how WRONG a statement of "only 25% decrease" is. It's terribly wrong, and bad if people don't actually realize it. If it takes 2839473 times to get it into peoples' heads, so be it.

I've been reading the SC2 boards quite frequently over the last few days, and I've noticed that you are ALWAYS telling somebody to stop talking in some way, or arguing, or just plain being an asshole. Your incessant need to argue with others truly rivals nobody elses' that I've seen on TL. I just wanted to say: You look like a moron, and you aren't making friends.

its cuz protoss is pretty good! lots of splash damage, and templar can be INSTA warped in with a storm already ready to go (with energy upgrade)

i play toss and think this is fine. it makes sense.

Forgive my simpleton math, I'm not denying what you guys are saying about the radius. 2 > 1.5 (to idiots like me) looks like straightforward in the way I presented it.

Sorry for the ignorance! Didn't mean to stir up anything.
When you are prepared, there's no such thing as pressure.

Jesus people.. I was talking about the radius reduction.. probably should have clarified but still.. It wasn't necessary for 10 people to prove the difference between radius and volume.

bummer. i hate looking like a moron.

over the past few days i've tried posting in the SC2 forums because there seems to be an oversaturation of new people posting solely in those forums, and i love the TL community the way it was before the beta came out, so i tried posting in the threads to help ppl out. such as how to deal with MMM+tank, or explaining why mass spine crawlers is a bad idea

BUT people who are new are very upset that they dont know as much about how in depth of a game starcraft can be, so they lash out with some pretty hateful things to say. i've been nothing but cordial in all my posts.

you however, called me a moron. ty. i will add it to the list of things i've been called the last 24 hrs, right along with "downs" and "incompetent".

and i've never told someone to stop talking. not my style.

You mean radius and area.

It is reduced by 25% That's all you need to hear. I really wish they had rather decreased the damage output rather than the range.
p.s. i was indeed talking about the radius


That's not all we need to hear. Sure, you may have meant radius, but saying "It has 25% less radius," while being correct, does not exemplify just how much storm we're losing.

I've been using storm since the patch, and its fine. Just make sure you aim it well and dont let them run out of it so easily..
IMO its fine.. still does a shit ton of damage, you just need to use it correctly, having a few extra ht's just in case doesn't hurt tho
Why?
