The issue I have with this change isn't as much in terms of balance, but rather in terms of missed opportunity. Look at these two things: (1) Maurauder too good vs Zealots/Ultralisks (2) Zealots and Ultralisks are microless. Potential fix --> Increase the microness of both of these units. Wouldn't that be a ton more fun than straight up buffing Ultralisks and nerfing the Maurader? | ||

Marines did 3 damage to ultras, now they deal 1. Add in zergling adrenal glands, late game TvZ is dead -_-. Expect more one sideness than with the old broodlord infestor. | ||

And the concept of the ultralisk being tankier is a good one, imho. | ||

All this accomplishes is to force the Cyclone against Zerg late game. This is comparble to the Ultralisk being like a Colossus that needs Vikings (Cyclones) to counter it because it hardcounters straight up bio. I don't think this microless hardcounter-logic every has worked out well. I would have gone for a huge Ultralisk offcreep movement speed along with lower model size. | ||

Blizzard and their silly changes... I see no difference in Marauder. They are giving 2 shots in same time and each of them with halved damage. So its basically same as nowm just with different animation. | ||

Wouldn't that be a ton more fun than straight up buffing Ultralisks and nerfing the Maurader? Yes but it is a difficult situation, how exactly do you make Ultras more microable? If you give them movement speed buff they would be disgusting on creep in my opinion and you also have to make them not blockable by Zerglings which will create Protoss-like death balls. I agree that Blizzard is known for overdoing things, they have done that a lot in the past. If they need to buff one or nerf another unit, they do both at the same which essentially makes one of them useless. Perhaps Ultras shouldn't get an armor buff but something else. That being said, it was also pretty stupid how Zergs spend a ton of resources to make Ultralisks just to watch all of them to die to few Widow Mines and bunch of Marauders that dance left and right. | ||

I think the general concept of getting different units for different opponent units is great, though it's true that it might be hardcountering too much at this point. But given that the meta has not yet to be established I think it's hard to really judge that. In general, though, I like the sound of TvZ not being about Terran having Bio all game long. | ||

Go for some unittestmap and let some chargelots fight vs marauder. Or let some not chargedlots tank vs marauder. They wont die. And that was always the concept of pvt in hots and it was fine. Maruader good vs stalker buildings etc. but bad vs light units. And please think about 2 attacks and 1 attack and amor. You will get it fast i guess. | ||

Ultralisk has 8 armor, old Marauder without upgrades would do (20-8) = 12 damage to Ultralisks, new Marauder is doing(2x(10-8)) = 4 damage to Ultralisks, that is pretty fucking big if you ask me. | ||

Do you under how armor works? Each attack gets reduced by the armor amount. So tell me, how does 2 attacks with halved damage deal with the same damage as a single attack. No one can be this ignorant of the game. | ||

You can explain that without telling him how ignorant he is. | ||
