Also, the mothership core is perfect for denying overlords now and keeping zergs in the dark. ..I thought it was only an air to ground attack? | ||

Who else is looking forward to the Mothership Core harass? You've got it backwards. It WAS a harass unit BEFORE this patch. Blizzard did this specifically so that it COULDN'T be used as offensively as it once was. It is now WAY more of a defensive unit. | ||

 How on earth are protoss supposed to use it now? It's a deathball only ability now. Just too slow to use in the fashion Blizzard envisions...especially for big maps. | ||

Mass recall was the one fun and creative addition for protoss from Blizzard and they ruined it How on earth are protoss supposed to use it now? It's a deathball only ability now. Just too slow to use in the fashion Blizzard envisions...especially for big maps.It was only used to "bring the deathball to you". It makes more sense as a defensive ability than an offensive one. | ||

The splash damage from widow mines will no longer hit friendly activated widow mines. do widow mines do friendly damage to units? | ||

In PvP, the defender can gain the advantage of purifier. But this no longer shuts down early aggression because the player can use recall to retreat. (also, purifier is on a time bomb as the energy will run out if not canceled...etc) I am exciting to see the new PvP matchup. Overall, I am happy to see this patch. It sounds awesome. | ||

And now that you need to have it with your army to use it's recall, they might need to increase its health pool so that it doesn't get picked off too quickly by vikings. | ||
