White-Ra looks like he is having fun though, so much fun (raiding a meching Terran). Although it looks like he needs some Zealots or Tempests for this game. Mmmmm, my life for Aiur, indeed. Also, it's good that the Oracle does not appear so OP that Protoss can do without our major AOE. It means that it may not be OP, and that major nerfs may not be required.

No sigh of Colossus though! ;-) Just High Templars. :-)

Of course, it's early days, and it will be difficult to make even an approximately accurate assessment for a while yet.

I hate to be "that guy" but these non-terran changes are making me flaccid . Makes me want to just ladder with zerg...their changes seem much more entertaining than the other two in my opinion...still wish terran mech AA would be fixed ...and no mech vs protoss
I'm terranfying

White Ra's macro/harass/storms/feeds backs won the game. Plus a well-engineered base race. IMO the time-warps didn't seem that effective in the game except when he used it once to catch up to a retreating mech division.

I don't think a straight up buff to the Widow Mine is an option (unless we want to explode the community with QQ ).

Buff to Siege Tanks please.

Goliath is boring. Change the Thor to be the AA mech (nerf it's DPS vs ground to comensate).

As a terran I am really not looking forward to HOTS. Atm it's insane how hard terran is in WOL for someone that cant practice 6+ hours everyday. You would expect that blizzard would help us in HOTS, but it seems the other way around: it gets even harder

entomb was imo a really fun ability!

this new beam is just so bad... and i don't think the timewarp is worth to cast on the workers on either the mineral line or vespin gas....

feels like going oracle is just a mid-lategame thing to add to your deathball now... great :/

They've even admitted the 250mm cannon / etc. on thors is terribad, considering the insane changes they're obviously willing to throw out there in HOTS beta, what the hell haven't they done SOMETHING yet for terran mech, thors in particular? Just freaking remove the upgrade and the energy. Find a single terran that would think that was a bad change. What's ridiculous is the energy removal alone wouldn't help -that- much, and they won't even go that far.

Haha entomb is gone.

Knew it since the beginning....what kind of an imba spell is that -_-
Regarding the imbalance, hilarious to see Zergs defending themselves....

Yeah, it would suck. But DB did say, long ago, that because Terran was the most complete race in SC2, they were hesitant to add too much to Terran. That said, it would be nice to see a small buff to mech - maybe by a small buff to Tanks? If so, I hope it's balanced vs Stalkers as the Hellbat has gone a long way to nullifying Zealot heavy armies in PvT. Of course, if they do buff the Tanks substantively, it may be grounds to tweak the Immortal and return it to being a Gateway unit.

WhiteRa does look like he is having a lot of fun, though. His games, so far, have all been active with plenty of action.

So far, there is no way I'm buying hots for a mine and a half-assed transformer hellion.

Agreed, nothing in HotS keeps me, a terran player, actually interested :/
I've only played the beta for a week and I'm bored
