Since this whole topic degenerated into the usual balance flamefest where every topic ends up if unmoderated it's time for it to clean up. Locking this down for a while. Any posts made after my post [page 233] not addressing the changes in this patch directly and containting flames or general balance whine will get banned for at least a week. ~Nyovne

There is way too much flaming in this thread right now. Calm down before you post! (Page 271) ~iamke55

Definately interesting changes. The pre-igniter nerf coupled with barracks build time will definatly make zergs feel a bit safer agaisnt t in the early game while the infestor nerf will make t stronger lategame vs z.

most things seem pretty nice changes, but I am afraid there are a little too many changes at the same time, i would rather see Blizzard patch more frequently wiht less changes.

I do like the change in generall, but I am not sure if the blink nerf was really necessary, because the main problem with blink were the 7 gate blink timing vs zerg - which most zerg had figured out by the point or is already holdable if the zerg anticipates it.
Whitera will be 100 percent stronger after his special tactics getting buffed so hard - I am really looking forward seeing his drop play

It looks like a great patch.
Although the time changes for Blink and Ultralisk looks like they are pretty big.

But we will see how it works out when the patch is live.

To everyone saying fungal nerf helps marauders, you're forgetting marauders are going to be stimmed.

I'd wish they would maybe also change something about the Hydra's even if there movement speed is just slightly increased or something like that, then they can nerf something different on Zerg or so idk :s

7 gate blink has indeed been figured out - Ret vs Nani on shakuras is pretty much the best example. Take a super early third, produce nothing but drones and then roflstomp with pure roach as you'll have ~50 supply more.

The blink-change is the only thing I don't get at all. If anything, then lategame blink is too strong, but this didn't change at all...

As a protoss I like the immortal range buff, wp should have been buffed long time ago, as for mothership, I don't think people will use it more.

However, how is this patch supposed to deal with 1-1-1 what is the main issue right now? Is range buff and 5s longer rax build time really enough? Some players started countering it with blink stalkers, what's not much possible with 30s longer research time.

Increasing the acceleration speed of Momaship should be great in late game PvZ. Infestor nerf is also good news and would allow toss to put back some pressure early on, without the fear of roach/festor combo death. Blink nerf plus the ramp vision decrease, means that robo should be the most stable PvP opening. Immortal range increase is awesome and will be very useful in both PvP and PvZ. Rax build time increase will help zergs a bit against the two rax pressure, since sometimes it's way too good. Very good patch notes overall, let's hope it plays just as well. Great job Blizz.

I like the changes tbh. Thnk they are all fair and well thought out. The only one i can't understand is the baracks change. Yeah the bunker rush is easy but so are alot of rushes and just as other kinds of rushes if you scout properly its far from impossible stopping it from doing harm.


And yeah Im a Z player :p

Sentry buff helps quite a bit I think
