U.U
If they weren't too proud to redesign the retarded immortal and rebalance the tank, they wouldn't need the retarded warhound.

Umm, okay, I get that Blizzard don't like siege tanks, but seriously?
I mean, in WoL, siege tanks weren't even that scary, as a zerg you could ling surround, flank, roaches, as a Protoss, immortals, you name it. Tanks did very mediocre DPS with a slight splash (not exactly a large splash either).
However, with this expansion, every single unit is designed to counter the siege tank: - Warhound (anti-mechanical, ridiculous HP, very fast) - Battle Hellion (very beefy, takes the shots so that the higher damage units can snipe the tanks) - Tempest (obvious) - Viper (abduct and now blinding cloud) - Swarm host (free units to take shots and attack tanks)
I really don't understand what was the point of it all, if you don't want Terran to build tanks in any match-up then simply remove the unit and put some units in with better thought-out skills.

Was wondering what kind of new hotkeys did they add?
Like what's the hotkey for "select all army" ? Ctrl A ?
And maybe other stuff? but I can't tell ~~ ... what's new for "in game features" hotkeys?

The best way to change WH is to just redesign it to be anti-air unit. lol

-2 dmg dmg to locus host ? This wouldn't balance anything.

No no no, the locusts themselves do -2 less damage.
Also after the warhound nerf I've seen a lot of Terrans completely getting owned with just warhounds as their army with battle hellions. Seems to have worked quite well! More tanks folks <3

Good changes. Sheesh I wish they would get rid of the WarHound though.

Call me dumb, but what's your point about a mothership beating a tank? Tanks can't shoot up, or am I missing something?

Blinding Cloud in it's current state seems pretty strong. It works on Siege Tanks in Siege Mode. Even Dark Swarm was susceptitle to splash damage. For example, in Brood War late game versus Dark Swarm, Protoss had to rely on Archons, Reavers, and High Templar to kill units under Dark Swarm. Terran relied on Irradiate, Siege Mode, and Spider Mines.
Also, Blinding Cloud combined with chain Fungal means you can't micro out of it. Seems nuts. Hopefully we'll see some new tactics along with some updates to old ones to deal with this. :D

I still hope they will completely redesign the Warhound, and the dmg nerf is just a short fix for the meantime.

Of course not. Why would they? It's one of the most beloved unit.

glad that there's going to be a patch that weakens the warhound, it seems really powerful
