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 | ||

I don't understand the barracks build time For slighty more time for zerg to build some zerglings to defend themselfs from terran allins and rushes. mothership speed increase Mothership speed is same. They're changed only accelerating (time to reach max speed), not speed. | ||

Can someone explain whether the 40dmg vs armored or the +30% dmg is better? Before: 36, 47 vs Armored After: 30, 40 vs Armored So, a straight nerf. | ||

I like. if the barracks change turns out to be that big a deal terran will struggle to pressure zerg at all until the mid game :D so either double expanding will become standard for T or the barracks change will have to not be such a big deal. the fact you see 2 raxing on tal darim makes me think that 5 seconds wont be a problem on most maps | ||

At raleigh bfh were not nearly as effective as in anaheim because people know how to defend them now, and a nerf this big might make helions go the way of the reaper -_- I think Hellions are still going to be a great unit | ||

The possibilities :O BUNCH EM UP It could be pretty hard to micro out of if the missiles are launched at close range/several are launched simultaneously at a mineral line. | ||

Wrong. +1 weapons is a 2 shot again (on drones and probes). +2 weapons and up is a 2 shot with any level of armor. Only SCVs work in the manner that you're thinking of, they have more HP than the other workers. | ||

Changing it to +5 was the smallest nerf that would've mattered. +6 would be effectively the same, and +4 would be substantially worse. As is, +1 mech is now a way more important upgrade to get. | ||

Warpprisms sound great. And again, as a Zerg player, I think 5 for blue flame is too little. Maybe 7. Seeker missles are great. I have a feeling Blizz is listening to State of the Game  .Immortal and Mothership changes sound awesome while still keeping the game fine. Blink too. Even the Bnet changes are sick! i would rather have the freeze on the fungal its great running banes in on a large group of marines and just sitting back and watching the magic | ||

It's poorly designed, and no amount of patching is going to fix it. Blizzard expects us to wait a year and pay money just to give them the chance to actually balance the game. It's absurd. It's a sign for zergs to invest their time in a different game. oh i'm sorry, you must have been living in a cave when nestea won 4 GSL championships | ||
