I still can't believe they are really going to get rid of the mother ship core. If David Kim was still leading, this change would be impossible.


Admittedly all their ideas to replace photon overcharge have been garbage and break PvP and PvZ in half, but at least they are trying.


Of course design patches are going to break matchups in half at first. That's why they're design patches. They can always fine tune them once they're established.


All these shield buffing abilities do absolutely nothing to prevent mineral lines to get cleaned out at a whim.

you mean shield recharge doesn't help vs liberator DPS?

How much are they paying you?!


Well this is a stance I've always had. Design patches should only be criticized for their design. Everything else will come later.

So we are allowed to criticize warpgates for bad design?

Stalkers shooting things out of the sky much faster should help with that. Also widow mines being visible off cooldown.

Why isn't the music in every WCS break Treat - Roar? WCS clearly behind GSL forever until this is addressed. SGTK you should also get involved with WCS planning.

MOBA are really deforming players minds: there is no need to change units/abilities to shake the meta. Changes must be done when the design is in a bad state, as it is right now for Raven and PO,not because is refreshing to see new metà every year...

I agree that some of the new changes are stupid, but I like the general new approach they are doing.

The old approach was: "we will put band-aids on everything" like buffing spores to directly nerf mutas, instead of nerfing mutas directly or something. I hated those band-aid solutions so much.

Sure, people have always done that. I just don't agree.

Widow mines becoming visible will definitely discourage people from leaving them in a base. Remains to be seen if it maybe even discourages from dropping them in the first place though.

If people remove them from your mineral line (or never put them there in the first place) then clearing them out should be much easier!
