Altough the cyclone change is good, without lock on I wonder how will terran be supposed to defend a lot of the early bullshit protoss can throw, early game lock is necessary for early game defence.

Also RIP my cyclone cheeses/rush's :c

TERRAN:

Mech play
- Resource changes means mech can't keep up in eco
- Cyclone: Redesigned. Lose lock on, gain solid Anti-armor weapon.
- Combo with Hellion to lock enemy in their base.

- Removing Tankivac
- SIEGE TANK BUFFS!!! - damage increased to 70 vs armored
- Won't nerf damage, will nerf rate of fire,etc if needed. Once set up, intended to be VERY strong

PROTOSS:

- To make mech viable, correcting Protoss late game.
- Tempest: too viable due to range, new ability call Disruption Spear. Slow damage over time which is intended to make Terrans choose if to Unsiege.
- Dark Templar: BLINK!!! New long research upgrade, more useful when detection is available. Not final.
- Carriers: Interceptors now cost 5 minerals, not 25. Less resources to produce from Stargate.
- Adept: No immediate changes, expecting Siege Tanks to counter mass Adept more.


ZERG:

- Ravager changed - armored and will be heavily punished by Siege Tank
- Hydralisk, core unit: +1 range, will now benefit from speed boost on creep.
- Infestor strengthened, all abilities can be cast while burrowed.
- Infestor new ability: Deep Tunnel, "warp" to any part of the map where you have vision
- DK expects Viper and Brood Lord to counter mass siege tanks in the mid and late game, more testing needed, may do more if Siege Tanks too strong.

SC2: Balance test map with all changes on Tuesday, they want the community to test the changes. Changes will be made to live game at the start of new year.

I feel like he started with reasonable change that a lot of people ask for, tank redesign, tempess redesign, ravager nerf, cyclone changes...

And then he went, yo Blink dt and teleporting infestor, 7 range hydra. Lol

But hey maybe it will all come out great, lets wait and see.

People already going completely negative without even reading all the changes and think about it for a while...
I mean i love to be negative about sc2, but can we be reasonable for a second?

Speaking seriously though, protoss gets crazy lategame buffs while the other races get early/midgame things (better cyclones, hydra range, bane speed). Not sure im a fan.

They were always a fan of assymetrical balance
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment
