Increased Neural Parasite range to 9.
Could not find a patch that allowed for burrowed Neural Parasite.

It's still missing the old fungal damage of 48 vs everything. (To be fair though, back then fungal was a projectile)
I also think the strongest iteration of neural parasite was at the very start of beta where neural was non-channeling, 10 seconds duration, had 9 range, 50 mana cost, no research requirement and did not affect air units.

Corrupter:
Could not find a patch that mentioned Contaminate ability (disables all buildings, including e.g. PF).

That's because the unit started with the ability in beta (which was called Corruption, but did essentially what contaminate does today) and it was never changed until beta patch 11 where it was reworked into something quite similar to what it is today.
Not sure about the exact number on the old Corruption, but it completely disabled the building for its duration, including shutting down the attacks of defensive structures.

Oh, and you also forgot to include the old Roach regeneration upgrade which required Hive and gave Roaches +20 regeneration when burrowed and +5 when unborrowed.

Idk if this applied because it wasn't an actual nerf to a unit, but was the close proximity patrol (the viking flower) reverted back in this map? I absolutely loved spinning buildings around at light speed because it looked so ridiculous, but it was taken out because tvt tank wars.

Your vote: What team bracket would you like to see maps for first?

(Vote): 2v2
(Vote): 3v3
(Vote): 4v4

I am going to start looking at team maps and uploading them to Dropbox for those interested. If those who would like to try out team games could tell me which bracket is preferred, let me know. In fact vote in the poll above! :D If you have a preference, reply with your preference and say which maps you would like for that bracket's pool.

Zain3 and insane_, thank you so much for getting those uploaded to the other regions. I can't wait to hear about people playing it. I would be interested in hearing how many more reviews you're getting in those regions. I will contact you both whenever I have pushed the next patch on NA.

Neural Parasite while burrowed, from what I have found, was a bug, and this mod does not fix or implement old bugs at the moment. Going to double-check Neural Parasite data. As for Fungal Growth, I will make sure that it has the correct damage.

Roach regeneration should make it into the next iteration. Super roaches ho!

I could not find another nerf to the Hydralisk.

Because I am choosing not to implement alpha abilities/upgrades, Timebomb and Planetcracker may not end up in the mod. This depends on my mapmaking skill limitations as well as the demand of having those in the mod. Thank you to all who are reporting missing elements in the mod. Your diligence is what drives its completion.

I can look into the Viking flower, but, if it does not largely effect gameplay or buff anything, I might save time and skip it.

Look forward to another present (pre-loaded team maps and patch 1.2) soon!

I actually miss those changes. Or un-changes. Sounds like a great mod. Surprised no one has done it before.

Good job man.

While you're at it, you could make EMP also drain all shields and energy, not just 100 of each, exactly like it used to pre-nerf.

Added EMP to the list of changes that I need to make. Still shooting for updating the mod within the next week. Tweet your neighborhood-friendly casters to see if they'd be interested in hosting some games on their channel. :D

Two people I know play against each other often, and one of them streams what is often a roflstomping of the other. This could add an interesting twist :D

This would be very very interesting on 50% o_0

well im just gonna ask straight out..
do you guys feel like we should try to balance it out with buffs instead? or take another route to the nerfs?
if i got it correct a lot of people think that blizzard kinda went too haywire with the nerfs without buffing the other areas..

am i wrong?

Wouldnt want this to turn into OneGoal or Starbow discussion but we have something very strong going i believe..
And the fact that you did all the work i've been working on for a long time but never got my thumb out of my ass.

Does anyone still play this? Today there was a Back to Imbaness Cup, it'd be cool to have something similar for this as well. Would anybody be interested in that sort of thing? Not that I have any cash for a prize pool.

Does the mod work properly too?

How was the Back to Imbaness Cup? I have been away from SC2 for awhile and have not purchased HotS - no moneys. This mod should work just fine though. I don't believe there was much left to fix other than everyone's preference on the map pool.

I've not played this, haven't even heard of it tbh *blush*. Is this map added as a big arcade map or does one need to zip files into folders? I'm not good at these technicaL things
