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 | ||

Added three privacy settings to the Options menu under the Battle.net section. Only allow friends to send me invites. Only allow friends to send me chat messages. Set status to Busy when playing a game. These will really help the pros/casters | ||

Now it won't be as big, since the immortal is a more costly and advanced tech unit, but I still expect for Toss to be noticeably more effective. The fungal nerf certainly doesn't help. Immortals are nigh useless against Zerg late game of Infestor Brood. It will make the Protoss midgame stronger, but virtually every Protoss in the late game will be going Colossus/Templar as opposed to Immortals since they really aren't that great when you have to go up against Infestors and Broods | ||

Repeated control group and selection commands will no longer count as unique actions for APM calculation purposes. Fixed an issue where Drone attacks could be more easily dodged than SCV or Probes. APM nerf  Was this really necessary? This has been around for 10 years and they're taking it out because people spam too much?Drone buff :D | ||

Improved Larva placement when the bottom edge of a hatchery is on a cliff edge to prevent Larva from getting killed. Both of these are awesome for zerg, Catz will be thrilled about the second one with his proxy hatch haha | ||

The Infestor nerf change how many fungal you need to kill Viking and Voidray. That's pretty huge. | ||

Nice patch to be honest, hellions I agree as well as Infestor, Blink maybe, we've seen HuK and White-Ra(at least me) do very good harass, Mothership, lol I hope we see some more. Blizz is getting the hang of it! | ||

Although the immortal buff is going to have a very negative impact on zergs early game aggresion possibilities/possibility imo. | ||

Also, about the display of minerals regained for canceled/salvaged buildings, at first I was happy about this change, but now I don't really think it's that important. Only helps you to realize if your opponent made a mistake or not. And I guess helps more for casters than players. | ||

I think this is pretty silly. To be fair, the nerf to blue flame hellions isn't that big, they can still clear your mineral line in a matter of seconds, it just takes them another shot to do it. It helps, but it's certainly not the end of blue flame hellions, they're still nasty. | ||

I kinda agree, while some of these changes are still nice (Warp Prism for example), I feel that there are too many other big changes all at once before Blizzard actually giving the meta-game a chance to catch up this time. What happened to their philosophy of a little bit at a time while giving players a chance to solve the problems with evolving meta-games? | ||

I don't think it was too exploitable, and it was always funny to watch. That's actually a huge change. Can't just set and forget drops now. It really reduces the effectiveness of terran multidrops. | ||
