For some reason a lot of people pronounce it like that in English. I thought it was pronounced like that as well but then some Germans laughed at me.

This constant whine in the LR threads (ok, in any threads - I'm surprised people are not bashing Lotv in the Olympics thread) is a bit annoying.. can't you just enjoy the games?

Yes sure WoL was sooo much better than Lotv (....), but this is a thread on a Lotv tournament..

i play both zerg and protoss and as a player i don't have the issues you're describing, and the pro games i watch are not in any way worse than hots. they're generally faster (which is always better) and more dependent on aggression and micro. as for ladder and mid level players, you can literally still play however the fuck you want and the main difference is that the games are faster, which again is a huge improvement

PvP hasn't been about Disruptor shots for a while now, it is actually Roach vs Roach just with Adepts instead of Roaches in KR now, upgrades don't matter, nothing matter, other than super high defenders advantage and the amount of Adepts you have, I'd gladly take the Disruptor battles back

I disagree with games being faster being an improvement. I thought the previous pace was much better.

Man mass adepts and shading every 2 seconds still dumb. Can spam it so stupidly TT.

I think it should cost X shield to activate it, that could be interesting


Just increasing the cooldown is a cleaner and better change..

I wouldn't call that better, it's simpler for sure though.


Adding a shield tax, de-incentives using shading at all in some circumstances (and there isn't even any difficult decision making involved--if there's an engagement soon don't shade), which isn't something you want on an ability.

Having a shield tax on it makes it so it's only really useful for multitasking between bases and the longer it's going on the worse it gets. You also probably don't want to shade directly on an enemey army anymore. I quite like that tbh.
To be clear: There probably wouldn't be any cooldown on it anymore at all though, you don't need cooldown and "energy".


Having a shield tax means people will only ever use shading to either scout or shade into mineral lines and right click on workers. It looks like it only preserves the worst aspect of shades.

Imho they need to test to remove Shade give adepts some serious movement speed(upgrade?)


So they'd just be zealots that are better against light units early on.


What do you mean only the worst aspects of shades? Which "positive" aspects would be lost? I don't think that shading on top of an enemy army is positive at all btw. Obviously the implementation makes also a difference (when to lose the shield exactly, when you activate the ability or when you actually shade, etc)
Not saying this is perfect by any means, but imo it's more interesting and better "balanced" than just increasing the cooldown.


Using shades for defense, flanking, midmap mobility, splitting, avoiding liberator zones or even shading onto armies are all more positive than right clicking on workers imo. Having weird downsides for the sake of being more "interesting" is a huge red flag too. As for being better "balanced" the issue with adepts has been design more so than balance, what bothers me is that your change rewards you for not using the ability, something you shouldn't want on an ability.

That's really dependant on how much shield it would cost tbh. I would say there is a cost to using the ability which is a bit more severe than a simple cooldown. Let's say 10 shields are lost if you actually shade somewhere, i don't think that would be too bad, But sure i can see where you are coming from i guess.
