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 honestly think the Hellion has been very healthy for the SC2 meta-game and as much as I hate them sometimes, I'm not sure if they should be nerfed. I guess if you really think about it, though, even if Blue Flame was completely removed they'd still be a powerful unit in groups of 3 and 4 or more. The barracks change is cool - I'm all for slowing down the Terran early game in any way possible. Seeker missile is interesting - hopefully that change leads to more opportunities to micro against it in pro games, making for more exciting and tense moments. Protoss changes seem fine overall, I'm just fearful of Immortal range though, but I guess that's just me since I prefer the old-fashioned roach/hydra/corruptor style most of the time. | ||

Just a guess though. sadly 5 secs will probably just encourage terrans to tug more scvs off the mineral line. | ||

Which is why most of my comments were geared toward TvT, most of the Protoss changes were heavily praised (I only disagreed with the WP buff) and the Zerg changes were considered unnecessary, in other words I'm fairly neutral on the Zerg changes. But, no, please dismiss the whole post because you don't consider Carriers to be AOE. And, judging from other comments, it seems like many others are also questioning the Terran nerfs. It's not like I'm against Terran nerfs, this is just not the way to do it. At this point Blizzard needs to be using a scalpel, not a baseball bat. | ||
