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

Fixed an issue where Drone attacks could be more easily dodged than SCV or Probes.


I wonder why they didn't fix the same issue for Ultralisks and Dark Templars.

protoss cancel pylon and make 2 new ones, now what ?


Make a bunker and win the game maybe


buker is 5 seconds later now, plus the mining time you lost from the 4 scvs you pulled, is it going to be in time ? I dont know

infestor nerf is minor as hell, it doesnt change anything at all i'd say. As for ultralisks i have to agree, they just suck, they should allow ultras to walk over cliffs or at least small units and mineral patches, they are always stuck and they cant fight, even though they do ridicilous damage against armored they cannot engage


ye, even if ultra got that reduced building time, they are still only good in one thing: die.

I dont understand the reasoning behind the barrack building time increased


it enables zerg to fast expand a bit more safely vs 2 rax. I think that paradoxically it may encourage 2 rax play indirectly, as it will encourage zerg fast expand play, against which 2rax is perfectly viable...

2 rax doesn't kill zergs anymore.


Is there a reason why you're lying to your fellow human beings?

If the Zerg plays it correctly, it wont.

Why don't you teach Losira, leenock and Nestea how to play then? Considering a bunker rush by marineking or sc has succeeded in 80% of their attempts, perhaps it is up to the Terran whether it succeeds or not.

Bunker time increased, barracks time increased meaning you start the bunker later?

if you send 4 workers on lowground you will lose so much money and time while the protoss just has to rebuild 2 on highground.

the blink change is wtf. I finally dont have to 4gate every pvp, can have some nice blink micro games/dts/robo rushes and they take away blink option vs 4gate. Really blizzard, really?

So bunker your mineral line and build a second rax. I don't see how a proxy gate that you've scouted is such a big deal.
My strategy is to fork people.

I literally loled when I saw they changed the bunker time again. But then I saw it was the barracks. Happy 2gating.

ROFL are you seriously implying that ~3-4 reallife seconds more will make proxy 2 gate OP?

You can go 11/11 no CC and make 3 bunkers just after the rax finish while pulling 6 scvs. Pulling 4 scvs and doing 1 rax =/////= no money for auto bunker.

Haven't read 107 pages, but has anyone mentioned the fact that 5 second later barracks=5 seconds later marine=5 more seconds to possibly scout the terran?

I think that could possibly be significant on some maps.

This is an insanely awesome patch (terran user). So many huge changes, I wonder how the metagame is going to be affected...

We need a poll on what people think of the BF hellion change, and what the best patch change is!
Don't let those anti-cheese advocates tell you what to do. Rush to meet life head on!

It is not minor. It will now punish bad fungal control (which is not bad btw), but it still not a minor change.
