Nothing is worth against defensive widow mines, is simply bad design and there's no way in the hell they can release the widow mine hitting air in a esport, it's truly damn random and i hope progamers shortly will feedaback in this direction.

Ok split mutas, and what about oneshotting an oracle? what about a prism with 2 immortals\ht\dt\lossi even with speed? what about a voidray? what about medivacks? split a single unit? what about all air units with decent speed (harasser) what you need to do? give the follow command on a observer or an overseer or use a scan everytime you want to land a medivack? Oh cmon.. Terran players please stop defending this shit and be more fair, it's totally random and scares harassment a lot... burrowed turrets...lol

Seriously, this unsupported bullshit about how Toss "might be the strongest race right now" will be the death of this game if it continues unchecked.

It's painfully obvious that top level Terran and Toss players are simply so much better than ANY Zerg player. Their micro, their multitasking, their delicate timings, the refinement and creativity of the metagame versus the stagnant Zerg metagame (where figuring out that zergling run-bys are a good idea is hailed as the epitome of creativity). Compare that with Zerg A-moving their ling-roaches and beating 400 APM, 7 base Protoss off 3 base infestor-brood.

And you seriously don't have a clue what micro is if you think mutas are at all "micro-rewarding". They're fundamentally "spam and A-move" units. The only "micro" is making sure they don't get killed, which applies to every unit -- even roaches and lings.

I really don't like the change to Tempests. Considering how little use Carriers and Battlecruisers already see against Protoss, introducing an even harder counter seems like the wrong move.
No, I don't want your number.

I don't really think Tempests need a huge buff to massive. They're pretty dominant as is and basically kill late game battlecruisers completely which is a bit rubbish given how long BCs take to come out and how vulnerable they are to templar.

They're also far too strong hitpoint wise. 450HP to a BC's 550HP with 2 armour for 4 supply is over the top.

The way Protoss players feel right now is the same as Terran players have felt all the time... End the game before late game or see yourself die to an a-moved Deathball. Indeed Zerg was OP, but Protoss is badly designed and i don't think that it is going to change... I think Qxc mentioned this already, but strong units whose only weakness is that they are slow is going to encourage deathball play, that is just the way it is. Tempest is slow and furthermore it deal single target damage. There is no way that it is ever going to be used for something else than deathballs.

Actually, it made me stop playing for a long while. But at least even during that period the Protoss players couldn't A-move their units and lived or died by their force fields. Which are a good deal harder than fungals. And I'm afraid ultimately the fault was with Zerg players. The few Zerg players like NesTea that showed some creativity won trophies.The ultimate solution wasn't insane, Rain-like playing skill, but merely figuring out that you had infestors.

For like two years, most Terran players didn't realize they had ghosts. They seemed to think they had a right to win matches doing nothing but spam marines.

Not really surprising, if you think about it, that a race designed to cater to the "Modern Warfare demographic" isn't likely to produce the best minds for strategy on the planet...

I say once again that the "coalition of morons against Protoss" will be the death of this game if they're allowed to continue unchecked.

No what could kill the game is "the coalition of morons against Zergs", and you are maybe the commander of the morons XD

Dark Shrine should be 200/200. Mutalisk change is awesome because they actually only were oracles who trade worse than oracles with timezonecrap.

Haha there we go again with the completely baseless assumption that all terran and toss players are more skilled than zerg players. Do you seriously believe that? What would a player like life or leenock have to do to actually be considered skilled in your eyes? I think people just see multipronged drops and instantly assume the terrans are much better than anyone else. The thing is, zergs don't have a move like that (well, not one that makes sense) or they would already be doing it.

No. "Baseless" is not giving your reasons. I already gave mine. Stephano is nearly as good as Life and Leenock, and he simply doesn't practice. Zerg is a low skill race, and that is exactly why the game is becoming boring.

I think that changing the distance between units, making deathballs less powerfull, would be a good start to balancing this game.
More space between the UNITS. Please.
Thank you Blizzard.
