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

from a protoss point of view i love those changes. especially the shield buff for warp prisms will have a huge impact i believe

Yep they're almost as beefy as an ovie now (just lacking 1 armor) but way zippier, especially if you get the speed upgrade. Immortal/zealot drops/zealot warpins will be a genuine threat now I think.

The ramp change seems ok, immortal buff would be ok if they nerfed colossus at the same time. The rest is either wrong or not enough/badly calculated...I'm scared of what will HotS bring .

Its funny you say this right after ppl like Morrow have made positive comments on the patch notes.

Some people will always whine without a real understanding of the game I guess.

Proving anyone wrong changes nothing about the truth and I'm sick and tired of explaining what's wrong every time .


You know better than the pros right? Because you're so much better than everybody? This kind of comments make me feel ill.

by the way... people seem not to have realized it yet, but drones with +1 carapace will now survive 2 shots from a hellion with pre-igniter and +1 vehicles... which is over the top don't you find?
and zerg will most likely have +1 carapce earlier than terran will have +1 vehicle attack...

the immortals needed the range so much. right now, it is a very clunky unit in large engagements, and it seems to fall short vs. marauders since it gets hung up so much on stalkers, sentries, and other immortals. this change probably should have come when they buffed roach range to 4

# of nerfs doesnt matter, balance matters.

If they have to nerf Terran 6 million times and buff Zerg 1 million to get close to balance so be it. Blizzard makes money off these tournaments, these tournaments do better if people tune in. More people will tune in if game is perceived as balanced so that's their aim. No hate bro, just business.

How do they determine if a unit is "down the ramp" ?

Does the -1 range only applies to units that are ON the ramps ? So siege tanks near the ramps won't be affected ?

only affects units on the ramp. for example a scount drone which is blocked by the terran wallin can now see 1range less inside the base.

It's like Blizzard is watching my games, I was experimenting with 2immortal + prism speed harass vs zerg, while taking a third behind it, It works out really well, just quite apm intensive, and now both of them are buffed :p

imo a very good change is the reduced vision up ramps..
the hellion nerf is very good even if they could have reduced the costs a bit at least...
i still feel like they should have removed the infestor energy upgrade, but at least they reduced the damage...even if it wont have a real effect on fungaling a whole group of marines which will instantly die (on the 2nd fungal)...

Actually I miss read. It concerns the sight range, not the attack range I guess.

Calm down guys, this patch isnt official just yet. It is still being tested and there is going to be a lot of feedback (also a lot of QQ) just like any other patch. My hope is the patch doesnt affect the game too drastically and players adapt quickly to it.

Think they still 3-shot marines, but can't confirm it

Good patch. I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't do anything for hydralisks.
Maybe they don't do anything because they are being reworked for HoTS.

They used to two shot marines without combat shield but it's now three shots regardless of combat shield.
