Broodwar balance awful with Remastered

I know that the game didn't change balance wise. But I think I heard that the engine delay somehow changed. With so many mechanic and complexity there was always room to grow in someone play. Now tho, it feels everyone plays so much better and fluid that the gearing imbalances that were always present are arising.

There are stuff like Dark Swarm taking ages, Carriers OP, missile turrets being absolute trash, etc.

Can't just as there is a Balance council for SC2. Be the same for Starcraft Broodwar ? Why isnt there such a thing ?

Bobby Kotick never liked democracy. Now that MS is in charge you could send your ideas to the Microsoft Gaming suggestion box.
It has a strong technique, but it lacks oo.

Trolling? Remastered didnt change balance.

Could have written this in 2007 and it would still be same balance.

The OTHER Balance Council has spoken lel.. I think it's because it looks so much like a troll post it's indistinguishable.

I think balance wise maps are the biggest factor. That tramples everything else.

In ALL fairness there ARE minor but NOT insignificant changes.

For example Valkyries are now fixed and Terrans are using em more. IDK how many it took for em to bug out before... But maybe it's part of the reason?

I think because of the name.

Although i dont know who it was that said that with Remastered they fixed a random delay or the game was more fluid, making mutalisks more powerful.

I would tend to agree tho that there are some stuff in the game that are OP, the worst obvious offender being defiler and carriers.

I think a Balance council alla SC2 and specially map making contests could also invigorate Broodwar

He has a drone picture tho! Sad...

THERE WILL BE NO BALLANCE CHANGES TO BROOD WAR PERIOD.

If (Overmind forbid) somehow it happens I guarantee you large number (if not all) BW players would just avoid it and play as before in some way.

dear god no. if balance whine had affected BW the way it affected sc2 zealots would be weaker, probes nerfed, marines buffed, mech upgrades nerfed, vulture/mine nerf, dt rush nerf, storm nerf, carrier nerf, defiler nerfed, etc. all the strong game breaking units would be brought more in line with the game, making it more boring

imagine a world where gas steal zealot rush doesn't exist. where marine medic turret can easily hold off mutas and even push out w/o irradiate. where vultures cost/supply/mines aren't completely broken (the threat of fast vultures and mines is the only reason tvp is even playable) and instead they just have more health or something. or carriers aren't a game ending threat.

etc etc. the sc2 balance team would DEFINITELY never let consume + plague exist.
