I played 10 games last night and was pitted against 9 Protoss and 1 Zerg. I got so sick of going my usual build against Protoss that I went something right off the wall and got face smashed, but at least it was some variety lol | ||

They should just remove Nitro Packs upgrade. Up the default speed on Reapers to what it would be with Nitro and require that a factory or ghost academy be built + tech lab on barracks before they can produce Reapers. barracks - 150 minerals 40 build time factory - 150 minerals 100 gas 60 build time ghost academy - 150 minerals 50 gas 40 build time reaper - 50 minerals 50 gas 45 build time Seems like a fair trade to me. | ||

Z can 14 hatch everygame vs T now risk free. TvP being fucking stupid for terran doesn get addressed at all. The matchup is horrible for both sides to play because its WHOEVER ATTACKS LOSES HAVE FUN. But T cant do shit with warped in templars with enough energy to storm. Reapers are horrible after early game, why the hell would they do this to make them even more useless. | ||

Adding roach range just seems a bit too much. Roaches already do a good job of dealing with hellions, and they are actually quite well vs stalkers if controlled properly. I guess it really depends on the amount of range increase. 1 range may not impact the game too much, but anything beyond that could be game breaking. It will be extremely easy to crush a protoss FE with cannons. I like all other changes, though. 9 rax reaper is pretty ridiculous vs protoss from what I hear, so I am fine with that change. Fungal growth on blink stalkers makes me super happy. I never understood why FG on stalkers didnt keep them rooted. Now infestors will actually be a viable unit in ZvP. To those saying that reapers are dead, I must disagree. They are still extremely great units. They can scout easily and can control xel'naga towers quite effectively. The only difference now is that you wont be able to mass them and kite everything in the game. Maybe revert back to the old reaper build time now, though. I really hope the HP increase for z buildings includes hatches. Stimmed MMM drops haunt my dreams. I just hope they dont go overboard with the increased roach range. Anything above +1 range could be game breaking and make z way too strong. | ||

Early reaper attacks were defensible, so I'm not quite sure if the factory nitro-pack is warranted. I welcome the roach range increase, it will certainly help against gateway units in general and terran bio. Zerg buildings are way too easy to snipe as terran as seen in top level games. | ||

It could even be +.5 range and it would be a significant change. | ||

Interesting stuff. They also have the Win%'s for the other leagues as well. I was surprised to see that Zerg beat terran more often than not. As for the zerg upgrade, I wholeheartedly agree witht he FG thing. I'm curious to see how much more range the roaches will be getting. Would they be getting 4 or 5. 5 would not mix well with hydras unless they had the range upgrade. 4 would work pretty well. On a side note: Praise be to Yevon! Reapers are getting nerfed again. Now they just need overlords to be mandatory before zerglings and I wont have to build anything before 12 probes lol. | ||

Concerning the depot before barracks change I think that it really won't much other than offsetting timings by a couple seconds, something that I level players can and will adapt too. | ||

since they seem to go way overboard on things, it looks to me like zerg is gonna dominate 1.2. that should be fun, but with the current changes it'd be pretty awful! hopefully they reign it in a little bit and pay more attention to what better players are doing | ||
