Damn it, the colossus in the banner got me excited it was being removed or being overhauled xD.

Adept and Lurker changes, yay.

Everything else, nay.

Reaver has no place in this game, maybe you should play BW if you like is so much?
How appropriate. You fight like a cow.

As someone without a beta key and without having watched any LotV streams, I'm getting a good feel from these changes. Except the Tempest ability. That has always been lame, and I want them to try something else.

I'm really dissapointed. Without even talking specifics, I got the impression that they were going to try a few radically different builds of the game, decide what worked best, and go from there. Instead they've tried one and are going back to minor tweaks to see if they can balance it.


This stage should be more about design that balance. The immortal tweak is a pretty lame attempt to help protoss with ravagers and what's worse, it's essentially back tracking. And yeah, the fact that they didn't even comment on the economy is pretty sad.

Edit: at least they're trying with the lurker

The best part is that Battlecruiser has exactly 550 HP so disintegrate can snipe 400/300/90 6 supply units. Can it get any more retarded?

I like most of these changes especially to the lurker and adept making them more viable. I think the cyclone change is not enough and needs to not have autocast or a longer cooldown. I think these changes are going in the right direction

It's not bad per se, it's just beyond insane that it's the only thing we get along the immortal buff (which is not important since you can still count to two after the shield activates and focus the immortal later). Adepts are cute and all but they certainly cant make up for how terrible protoss overall is in the current economic model. I mean, the balance is so horrible that many protoss as well as players of other races are outright refusing to play the beta...


give it some time, the games only been out for like a week now. ive spoken to dkim and hes well aware of all these issues (including how protoss doesnt benefit as much as the other races from the new eco change).

I am in awe how people expected EVERYTHING to be changed after 1 week. Beta will last for like 6 months, after it LotV will probably look completely different. Outside of Tempest and Cyclone changes, which don't make sense, I am fine with other 3 changes(maybe Oracle shouldn't be able to cancel teleport). Did they change enough? Not even close, but are they changing things? Yes, they are.

12 range doesn't change much in early game...it will still just lock in and just right click towards/away til every unit is dead

Make it slower, disable auto cast, less health, loses lock on when you don't have vision, etc. just pick one or two of those

Lurker change is pointless. Cyclones are still dumb. Adepts are still worthless. I dont know how the fuck they decided to change the Tempest of all things since Protoss cant survive to late game anyway


Basically this. The sad thing is, the lurker is already incredibly good. The only reason they buffed it is because there is something more OP currently being used? wtf? why no nerf to ravagers? Do they really think cyclones are going to be any less strong with this change? Tempests...? TEMPESTS? LOL WHAT?! WHO IS ON THIS BALANCE COMMITTEE?

The last few days the beta has seen a huge drop in players and streamers due to it simply being a waste of effort at this point. Far too many things are going to HAVE to change if players are to get interested/invest time in it again, especially in light of WCS. So, for them to still be tiptoeing around like this is really worrisome.

Hopefully they get on the ball... @_@;;

BlizzCon 2014 held on November 7 and 8, 2014.
Beta released over 2 weeks ago.

It didn't take anyone 2 weeks to realize how broken the cyclone or ravager was. It certainly didn't take 6(?) months as a few players won a showmatch using essentially that one unit... lol

Many have already happened. Some including premier teams and players for hundreds++ of dollars. We all get that they are just for fun, but it is kind of depressing when you are a person participating in the beta and have literally no chance at playing in any of them simply due to race. @_@;;
