Would you like to see additional Chronoboost use? - Page 3

I personally think that what's needed is for Chrono to do something mundane (like supply drop) that shows up every now and then. Shit like "temporary energy field" to allow placement, but not powering of buildings. Silly things like that to make it visually look like Chrono has multiple uses
Hark, what baseball through yonder window breaks?

Not necessarily Chrono Boost, but some redesign of Mothership Core+Nexus to add more utilities would be nice.

I would like to see a redesign as well

Chrono Boost is the perfect example of micro that is "not seen and doesn't show off the player's skill" Blizz keeps talking about. I'm sure adding some more utility to it would be a step in the right direction.

A random idea would be that it increases the shield regen speed of a unit X times, if it's inside an Y radius inside the nexus. So if you defend the first wave of a roach all-in and an immortal survives, you could help it gain the shields back for the second wave. Basically the shield battery that everyone loves, but not as good because it can't be used during combat.

Also, balance is relative. The right way to balance is to make everything seemingly imba in their own ways and then collectively, as a result, none of them is imba. It's like when both you and your neighbor are millionaires, none of you feel like a millionaire. Nerfing everything down to the same low level for "balance" is based on a communist mind set. That would only make everything homogenous thus killing all the fun.

I think that is what they already do thus leading to insta-wins, hard counters everywhere and terrible, terrible damage. Not a good way to do it. The game designers must be able to think these things though.
