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

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


Now you giggle because you've forced the toss to be supply blocked for an extra 30 seconds. While making a bunker to win


Have you ever thought that you couild start building the 2nd pylon seeing the first is attacked before the first dies? Meaning you will never be supply blocked ?

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.


Do you actually realize that the production facilities of Protoss get delayed if he places Pylon first with two GWs?

Sorry this discussion is over, apparently you never played Protoss or probably you are trolling the shit out of this thread.

A Mothership buff is a Fleet Beacon buff and therefore a Carrier buff. Albeit not much of one; Carriers instead of Void Rays or Phoenix or Colossi is still a very hard sell.
My strategy is to fork people.

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.


You think so?

I don't know what I could scout in these 5 seconds - maybe it means that you can get up the ramp with a 13 scout if you scout terran last to see if they have taken gas? The again, I guess you'll still be too late...

To quickly address the random number they used for the HSM

the 2.953 speed means that the HSM will be JUST slower than the following units (who have a speed of 2.9531:

Corruptors
Ultralisks
Speedbanes
Stalkers
Reapers

It also means they are now faster than:

Slow roaches
Chargelots
Vikings
Medivacs
Banshees

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.

It succeeded vs Zenio as well except Zenio used that to mindfuck his opponent and cheese him back.

A more plausible hypothesis is that he's ~gold Protoss.

WOAH wasn't expecting this many changes! judging by what Dustin Browder said about how changing the smallest thing can upset the whole game.

When a building is canceled or salvaged the minerals returned will be displayed at the building location for the owner, for enemy players a floating text will be displayed.

I think we are talking against each other on behalf of Fungal Growth change:
Fungal Growth damage changed from 36 (+30% armored) to 30 (40 vs Armored).

Is this a 40 or a 40%? Could someone clarify?

SCVs can no longer repair themselves while inside a Bunker or Medivac.

I think the warp prism, mothership, immortal, hellion, ultralisk and overseer change will go through while they will revert the bunker and the infestor change

I dont know how the ramp view radius will work out but I guess it's good. Gives more advantage to the defender

I think its more to address the ultra late game we're seeing in TvT. Yeah the HSM makes the Vikings fly away, but that's about it. Now when you get the HSM off, they should get hit and die
