Yeah I definitely agree toned down versions would suit LotV pace so much better. | ||

I think HotS Chronoboost is just a hundred times better. Just make it less strong so that missing them is more forgiving. Making it last less time would allow you to catch up more easily. The mechanic overall was 10x better than LOTV and 11x better than this proposed change | ||

Would that idea just increase time by buffering them early? If it increased efficiency then you could just stack 10 chronos and get a tech out in notime. | ||

That wouldn't be good, even if you scout the building it will be hard to determine how many stacks are on it and when to expect the tech and it would give Protoss even more options and weird timings. Let's not even go there. =) | ||

Let's not even go there. =) But it would be overall more inefficient this way. Since 1 stack of CB is only 50% less efficient than 4 stacks. I don't think it would ever be beneficial outside of late game to actually stack CB. It would just be a crutch for people who forget. Like if you're really, really trying to hit the earliest possible Colossus Lance timing it would probably be better to CB your Nexus for probes to get the eco to get the buildings out faster than it would be to pool energy on 2 nexues to CB the Bay and Facility. | ||

because the team was split 50-50 on the removal of macro mechanics i'm sure the community is split as well. its highly unlikely the community was 95-5 in favour of 1 or the other. so no matter what path DK takes they'll always be a vocal minority of people screaming from the rooftops that DK just destroyed the game. | ||

And the divide is fairly simply: go back to broodwar vs. blaze new trails. Hopefully this mean scan goes back to 50 energy though. IDEA FOR MULE What if they retained the range on the OC, but instead of it affecting calldown radius, it had a MULE tolerance. Like, each OC could tolerate [x] amount of active MULEs. So, if you really wanted to drop 16 MULEs on a gold base in an extreme late-game scenario, you'd have to lad [y] number of OCs over near it. | ||

Also, very very very disappointed they are still defending marauder design!!! No wonder SC2 could not reach Broodwar level. I was hoping the macro design changes would be a start but no, Legacy of the void cannot reach Broodwar either. Blizzard is losing their mojo. | ||
