I'd be good with the WMs remaining as they are if Blizzard dispatched a guy to come to your house and slap you after every game that you do it in.

I do like the new balance changes a lot more than when David Kim was leading.

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.


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

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?


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


They don't though. If you only have a few stalkers it takes even longer to take out an oracle...

There is no right or wrong concerning this

If the game is fun and diversified, why should you risk everything for the sake of change? Balance in rts is way more subtle than in moba when you can just ban OP things.

Because usually there will be a rather stale meta, people can boast about bw and how the meta still changes but most games are still fairly similar to each other. Change is exciting.
Personally i can see both sides and don't have a strong opinion one way or another

I didn't listen very carefully to this guy, can someone sum up the last changes to the infestor? So entangle out, infested terrans in again, fungal hits air again. Fungal is now a exclusive slowing spell? Even on creep? Can fungal still be casted from burrowed infestors?

All things that can be adjusted with build times, oracle armor, etc. and specific builds to perhaps counter SG openings. You're being way too specific about things that nobody can foresee at the moment.

They're bringing back the shield battery. I wonder how long it'll take them to realize that the shield battery is even worse in SCII than BW and shelve the idea.
