That damage over time spell is crap design

What is your reasoning? "bad design" is such a meme these days


I think is had to do with, "well it hit, I guess I'm fucked", theres no counter play it just hits and its a certain kill every time

thats just not true at all though, you can heal/repair.
Sure, right now it isn't perfect (no energy, probably too much dmg), but the concept itself is similar to irradiate, was that "crap design" too?


Dude, it's 500 damage (repairs will cost a lot), and while the damage is being done, you can just stutter step the tempests while even doing more and SCVs will have a hard time running and repairing.

Even if the damage gets reduced, it's still a terrible designed because it's extremely easy to play.

That's more about balance and not design (most of the complaints here tbh).
Which is exactly my point, "bad design" is a meme without any real meanign at this point, which is why i asked for the reasoning

I disagree. It is bad design. Its fast, hits hard, long range, decent hp and has a ability that hits air. The unit itself has no flaws. The only drawbacks is its relatively expensive cost and fleet becon requirement. Both of which are not substantial enough to prevent massing them.

Well, it was the Blizzcon version too and some things are worrisome (stupid eco growth, obviously problematic abilities...) and should be mentioned.

being "too easy to play and too hard to counter" is a balance thing?

The dmg of 500 is balance, yes

The balance of the damage is designed to take out nearly anything, which is why it needs 500 by design.

fair enough, how is the dps rate? that could also change (for easier heal/repair).
I just don't agree that this spell is nearly as bad as you guys say it is, even though no energy requirement is funny indeed.

Meh, was not a fan of irradiate. And that one seems even worse because it isn't balanced around splash and diminishing damage by pulling the unit out of your other stuff.
To be honest, the first playstyle that comes to mind with that thing is that you turtle and mine out the map while killing your opponent for free over time. Especially because the Tempest is the ideal turtle unit with its range and now with its speed is incredible good at not being punishable when casting the spell.


Hehe yeah that was kinda the exciting part of irradiate, wasn't it. I agree that this dot doesn't have this kind of counterplay potential, healing/repairing isn't really "exciting".
Well turtling itself will get a lot harder, so i am not sure if it is doable that way, we will see though

Games are quit poor but actually, I'm quite enjoying this. We should have a tournament like this every time blizz pushes out changes for LotV just to see what games will look like between pro gamers

That would be quite pointless I think. Clearly the people who are playing now are not taking it all that seriously.

Are the mod's stats carried over from the initial Blizzcon release, or are they balanced more?

The mod was patched, so it should be more balanced -which isn't saying a lot mind you.

They are updated based on David Kim's last LotV report

"standard"?

3 HERCs can destroy a Bunker in a matter of seconds (without a Bunker, SCVs/Marines are inefficient against such a strong body), and they can grapple the SCVs repairing to enter the base and wreak havoc from there, so yeah, in the current state of things the HERC seems very dangerous in early game TvT and I can see it bulldoze most builds on 2p maps. And if there is no "counter" among the new builds it might end up being standard indeed, which hopefully doesn't happen

I don't think they should be any worse, they didn't get any new counters. Think their role is pretty much the same.
