Shield batteries are a fundamentally garbage concept of a do nothing support building that always falls into uselessness or overpoweredness.


Pylon overcharge is several times worse


Shit design that maintains balance > Shit design that can't even maintain balance

Can't we just bring back nexus overcharge?

+1 nexus overcharge was 100% better than pylon overcharge

is this a joke?

Why would it be? I think nexus overcharge was more fun to play against than pylon overcharge and i think it was better (though ideally no overcharge would be good)

It was ass cancer to try and fight into a cannon that was impossible to kill. Not every race load up their entire army into medivacs and doom drop main ))

You can do it in LotV though


Can you? I could see zergs hating Nexus Overcharge more than Pylon Overcharge, since you can't snipe nexi with ravager biles as easily.

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.

pylon overcharge requires much more skill in pylon positioning etc. It also offers more counterplay because you can actually kill pylons, they have less range and a lower cooldown

I dunno, maybe it's just me but i thought playing vs nexus cannon was 1000x easier than vs pylon cannon.

Of course Zerg would hate it, half their timings would be much worse if the nexus was shooting at them for a minute. For Terran I'd definitely be happier if it was still on the nexus though.

I never liked incontrol as a caster that much. He's can be funny as hell and a great addition to any event, but other casters seem to add more from an analytical perspective, and seem to keep up with the metas a bit more


I think he's great. Of the the nerds watching sc2 can analyse game themselves and I think caster's main job is to keep us entertained. But it comes to personal preferences.

I guess it comes down to how many mutas you go and how well you manage to catch the Oracles

That would shut down tank pushes though

Not if you attack right away but if you pool up 15+ mutas and catch protoss off guard it's fine

You have corruptors too (which do get destroyed once voids come out admittedly).
