haha great rage.. embrace it

Other than that, i'd suggest this went into blogs ;O


Ah, I'm actually completely serious about these issues if not precisely the changes I'm proposing. It's probably hard for people who aren't any good to understand where the humor ends and my actual intentions begin, but even if I wrote in a completely different voice it wouldn't change the fact that most people wouldn't actually appreciate the issues; how or why they need to be fixed. I think this approach is a lot more entertaining than some alternatives.

What a shocker: the biggest crybaby to land a featured stream is entertained by an (obvious) troll post, whining about things as if his vision of balance is the right one. Seems like you've found yourself a kindred spirit.

-The colossus is indeed terrible. All my late game PvZ and PvP are just mass colossus, the only purpose of the others units is to tank the damage, meatshield style :/

-I think the reaper is a way more interesting concept but it needs to be more balanced. OP early game then it becomes absolutly terrible...

-The main problem with the air units is the micro imo. if you could micro properly range and damage could be nerfed. I think Blizz should take a look to the micro mod.
fuck all those elitists brb watching streams of elite players.

okay, not acknowledging your justifications (because they are overblown and filled with rage) - i do have to agree about air units. Something about them just doesn't feel "right".

Well if we're going to remove air units, we need to add nautical units. LOL

Yeah, this thread is the introduction to me proposing a homework assignment for Protoss players over plat ~1600 or so. I'd like the resident Protosses here on TL.net to make an effort to play non-Void Ray, non-Phoenix P without using the Colossus. I think it's gonna be damn near impossible, and I expect that winning percentages would drop to like half of their current value in standard mid- and late-game situations. If that's the case, then the Colossus truly is a huge issue.

the Mutalisk is returned in full fighting form and is completely capable of all the bullshit it was before except that now you don't have to micro it because nothing on the ground can kill it.

Since you have been here since '06, you probably had a good idea the kind of reaction this thread would get when you wrote it. So you can't plead ignorance.
