Maybe. I'm a horrible player, and played one game of Zerg after not having touched it for awhile now with the new mechanic. Added a macro hatch, all the hatches pumping out queens. Mineral lines were saturated across four bases pretty quick.

But that's just a first impression from a bad player. Let's see what pros do with it.
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

This is awesome and I love the way the new production is based, but heres one thing that's kind of ruining this for me a bit that I feel needs to be fixed like, immediately.

Turn the autocast off, please, Zerg macro is painfully retard easy, this is not the way to do it, do not enable autocast on this ability.

Oh, and I'm a Zerg player, change this crap like quickly and buff Zerg in another meaningful way when autocast is removed, the Protoss changes were really nice, give Zerg and Terran some similar ones and I really think it's going to add alot of magic back to the game.

That's all well and good, but at present, soO's just going to be staring at his A+moving army instead of at his base.

I'm flabbergasted by the Zealot change.

Just absolutely flabbergasted.

Let's go through this step-by-step.

PROBLEM: Protoss is the easiest race to master

EXAMPLE: Protoss mid/lategame harassment is extremely powerful but requires very little input; stopping the flow of Warp Prismed Zealots as your Terran bio gets caught out piecemeal is very punishing. Not only does it require little input, it provides no opportunities for a pro to distinguish himself if he wanted to (and he does).

SOLUTION: Make Protoss harassment more powerful by default with zero new input requirements! Make Warp Prisms warp Zealots in even faster! Lower the skill floor! Don't touch that skill ceiling!

I... just... what?


yea ok, except i need separate hotkeys for adepts, hts, stalkers, phoenixs, oracles and disruptors because theyre all high tier micro units w/ abilities (and im not even counting lower tier micro units like sentrys, immortals, voids and tempests).. on top of that i need to hotkey shit like my warpprism and mothership core, but yea protoss is an a-move race right?

sry bro but you have no idea what you're talking about. lotv protoss is by far the most micro intensive and hotkey intensive race, not even close.

agreed. I LOVE that chrono and mules are gone, but this isn't right. Feels like I'm playing on easy mode.

I hate this patch, having the mule gone feels like torture. I feel mineral starved at all times now.

Yea making Zerg macro easy mode is just plain dumb, not sure how they figured it wouldn't be that way after "lots of internal testing" but it's really terrible, I want to out macro my opponents not have the game do half the work for me.

Easy fix though imo

I wouldn't even mind just putting injects off autocast for now even if it's just 2 larva. I'm so fucking happy mules are gone

Hey, nothing would make me happier than you being right.

To help me gauge your perspective, would you say that in HOTS Protoss takes more mechanical skill than Terran on average? About the same? Slightly less? A lot less? Abysmally less?

obviously less, the colossus made it that way but that unit is unusable in legacy. different game, MUCH different units.
