Though, with how rapid some of the games can go, I wonder if Bo5 is going to become standard? When every game is really fast, I just wonder if, at the top level, a Bo3 will seem short? That's going to be an open question for a while. | ||

IIRC what jakatak said earlier, it doesn't stack on the same unit, but casting it on 2 units next to each other will cause it to stack. (edit I think this was regarding caustic spray, someone correct me if I am wrong) | ||

Well just so you know, for the last few years playing against Protoss has been absolutely zero fun. So. Retribution, or something. I hope all you scummy tosses cry for days. :D | ||

Even Blizzard wants them out of the game. | ||

Also, the colossus right now is effectively out of the game.

I kind of feel like maybe Protoss shouldn't be doing that early in the game and just focus on macroing out a lot of units from normal Gateways. Our units are already terrible compared to our opponent's, not getting warpgate would also mean that a round of production would be stuck in gateways instead of actually being on the field. Warpgate is as mandatory as ever, only now it's terrible. | ||

Infeza says "people wanted protoss removed from the game. They essentially did that." And Nathanias goes "It's called legacy for a reason, not dominance of the void." Also you should read Artosis blog on his first day in the beta, it's surprisingly calm and collected after his frustrating ladder session, except for the first line under his thoughts about the cyclone lol. The blog link is on his twitter as well. | ||

Increased the number of attacks from 1 to 2, halved damage and bonus damage. Has anyone stats on this? Is it a huge nerf? | ||

That's going to be an open question for a while. No changes at all. Only one minute shorter because of 12 worker start. You seem confused with real time now. Doesnt matter if the game ran 7min real time (LOTV) or 10min Blizzard time (WoL and HotS). Disrupter makes storms useless, overlaps too much. Disrupter is the new hero protoss unit and kills ~99% all opponents units in the whole game. | ||
