i'm open to a complete overhaul of all macro-mechanics for all races as DK alluded they MIGHT revisit when they were really mucking around with the economy during the LotV beta. | ||

Any kind of banshee/DT/burrow plays would be completely dead because you have tons of scans available. Terran could be even lazier about scouting because there would be no drawback to scanning liberally whenever (even super early) to see what you need to see. Basically scan would have to be completely reworked. well people would not always skip making scvs to make orbital | ||

Avilo, I think your points are legit, but you post this knowing that you're going to get a ton of the usual shit...which sucks! >> There's only one thing that the new chrono is really good at now, and that's boosting workers. But since it does that constantly from the beginning of the game, that means that Protoss is able to keep up in workers with the other two races (especially important in PvZ) all game long, which ends up accelerating everything else. I believe there was a thread on BNET a month or two ago that did some fancy math to show that it actually ends up doing this better than HOTS chrono. | ||

Well played, would read again, although it should be in blogs man. Of course Protoss will always have their 3rd Nexus up before you in PvT because of the way you play, lol. EDIT : Protoss does not have this fast 3rd Nexus advantage over Zerg really at this point, as well as I am pretty sure they don't vs Terran either. There are plenty of openings and styles as Terran that allow you to have your 3rd before Protoss in many situations, usually going Avilo style Mech is not one of them. | ||

New chrono: 15*(20+45)*2/3 = 650 Old chrono: 50*20*2/3= 666.67 That shows that the old chrono was slightly better, which makes sense, because the old one was harder to use. The difference is very small. I suppose, the timing mistakes had a bigger impact. | ||

 but no math dude....make calculations, etc, then go and write up billion words articles about things that based on more numbers than 5 more workers = 500 more minerals...1 mule = 788324792 more minerals, that compensate all terran losses (and they come from building structures, and making of orbital, not because chrono OP) | ||
