Well, Thors, Widow Mines and Tanks are still there, you can't kill Ultras with just bio anymore. | ||

Terrible? You can kill enemy(any race) with just 2 of them if he isn't prepared enough, and I don't mean prepared like make units, but units that specifically counters Cyclones. | ||

Nathanias got into Huk's base with 2 Cyclones against 2 Stalkers and MSC, killed MSC before Huk even managed to activate Photon overcharge, killed few Stalkers, Huk warp-ined more Stalkers and he killed them too. Then Huk managed to get few Stalkers in the back of the base, and came back with 4 that he had sent to harass Nathanias, and destroyed 2 Cyclones. They are really strong, but you can't just a-click with them or move into Stalkers and hope that you can escape. | ||

Why did they touch Marauders? As a Protoss player I'm perplexed... Blink Stalker all-ins not a problem? We still regularly see them at the highest level. And Colossus 20% less damage? That is the nail in the coffin for them in ZvP basically. They were already risky as hell versus Zerg with Vipers. | ||

I think they want to make mech more viable, particularly against protoss. They also nerfed the colussus and immortal aswell, which I think is a push to change the current stale metagame. | ||

You know what is really sad: I told them to nerf Colossus and changed Hardened shield to fix mech... back during the HOTS beta: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/starcraft-2-hots/378373-how-to-make-mech-and-stargate-play-viable I also told them to increase the attack speed of Tanks, and nerf Hellbats, and we know what happened. The problem is, Bio will continue to be the better choice over Mech, because of Marines. Make Mech units stronger and people will just combine them with unupgraded Marines and 1-1-1 again. Reducing the power of Colossus and Immortals makes Mech better, but it also makes Bio better. | ||

At the last blizzcon, David Kim stated that they were never really happy with the way colossus were being used in their aoe role, so I am surmising here that the nerf to colossus along with the rolling ball of doom addition is blizz rolling this plan out. | ||

The problem is, Bio will continue to be the better choice over Mech, because of Marines. Perhaps, the tank is now a much stronger unit overall because of mobility and the reduced strength of its counters. Marines themselves are still relatively fragile units which creates difficulties with the weaker marauders. | ||
