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

So many changes. I like a lot of them but it seems like this could radically shift the metagame. Give the players time to develop new strats instead of just nerfing everything blizz

Immortal is useless versus 1-1-1?

Nah, it's really good against the Marines and Banshees.


Tanks???

I guess Zealots suck versus 1-1-1 too then.

Good luck lifting any Tanks with your 4 range Phoenixes with a bunch of Marines under them.

They should make EMP clear fungal growth and give the templar a similar dispel ability and leave the damage as it is.

Barracks change is a little excessive. Proxy 2 gate, or just 2 gate in general will be hard to hold now 5 seconds is a lot! especially when a zealot is coming against a marine. Other than good changes, like the infest or nerf deff. needed. Blink, eh could help zergs out a little bit but will stillb e used the same the ultralisk build time is awesome! Like the raven change also make we will see a lot of hunter seeker

Terrans should stand up in droves right now just like all the Zerg whiners do. If you ever want mech to stay viable.

First they nerfed the tank because of STEPPES OF WAR. Wrap that around your brain and comprehend that - they nerfed the tank because of one imba mech map the size of your pinky.

Then they gave the thor energy back. Thors were good TvP, just like tanks were before that, but nono, too much like brood war - gotta make sure we don't have that, so they gave thors energy again just to make it a sitting duck. And think about this...they nerfed the fuck outta that after just ONE SERIES OF THORZAIN VS MC....LOL. "Wait and see how things develop..."LOL guess it has to be Z for that balance philosophy to hold true.

Now this...now they are even trying to kill the hellion to completely finish killing off mech. Zergs whine and QQ all the time and blizzard listens...Terrans where are you? You just gonna let them "wait and see" for months on infestors, but after one MLG they immediately nerf hellions...? You gonna stand for that Terran players? ?????

I do not know what they are thinking, WAY too soon to even touch hellions. "Wait and see.." sure, they wait and see...if it's ZERG. Because they are the most vocal majority of whiners.

Stand up for yourselves Terrans.


I rather wait for the patch then practice and adapt : )

Barracks change is dumb though.

Just conjecture at a glance: I think they decreased the cost of overseers to allow for easier detection, and the energy cost of contaminate was a countermeasure so ppl dont start spamming the new cheaper overseers and mass contaminating.

Barracks
Build time increased from 60 to 65.

Hellion
Infernal Pre-Igniter damage upgrade decreased from 10 to 5.

Thats bull.. Really? REALLY? Like you need a supply depot before barracks and now you increase build time for barracks? REALLY?

I think the hellion thing was necessary though, it almost doubled damage to light units, and it was becoming a problem. Although you can no longer 2 shot workers i believe?

I'm pretty alright with the patches, I'd still love for toss early, early game to get some love (though some will disagree with me).

Immortal buff might actually be a pretty large effect.

Isn't the raven buff a buff for mech?

Should help with holding a position at least.
