hmmm dunno if I like the muta change. If feel like window mines simply shouldn't hit air and leave the mutas as is. The nerfed infestor already leaves me wary for the future of ZvZ :/

I feel like Zerg players are going to start going into Terran bases with an overseer to snipe widow mines from now on.


Well can't snipe widow mines unless zerg wants to give away a free muta every time.

I also don't understand how a unit could possibly do 80 damage when siege tanks and snipers can't even 1 shot a Zergling.

The news says "50 damages against massive air units" not 80 o_O

Wow these are pretty cool. Don't like the Tempest change though, seems too much. They are already SUPER strong against air massive, it's the dps in general which they lack (but that's expected cause of the range and role of the unit).

The Tempest attack is 30, and it had +30 bonus damage to massive. so it used to be 60 altogether.

Now the bonus damage has been changed from +30 to +50, so combined with the original 30 damage, it is now 80.

Oracle
Pulsar Beam
Pulsar Beam activation now costs 25 energy.
While active, Pulsar Beam now drains 2 energy per second, down from 4.


Is this a buff or nerf? Seems like it would delay oracle harassment for awhile but be more effective once activated.


Seems like a pretty big nerf to me, especially for the pro players. It takes 12.5 seconds for you to equalize the energy spent for the activation. Don't ever see that happening with mineral line harassment on the pro scene. Lower levels, perhaps would be a buff for plat and below.

Might make for some interesting choices on larger bases. Maybe target supply depots in hard to reach spots. But stimmed marines insta gib the oracle so that activation energy is brutal. No more darting in and out.

if you buy 2 siege tanks they do kill a pack of zerglings in one shot... also, a tempest can't kill a zergling in 1 shot.

Might be worth it if the Zerg kills the whole mineral line afterwards.

i dunno whats the use of combined defense upgrades for terran. I never make any defense upgrades for air and for mech only if i play full mech.
and defensive upgrades arent that useful for air...


Its just fair. Before, upgrading +3 mech would make +3 air attack. It means that if the zerg was going BL, he would have 0/0 BL against 3/0 vikings... Was a non sense.


Yep. I'm pretty sure that's why they split those up again, +3 air attack vikings when Zerg is just getting +1/+1 brood/corruptor was a bit insane.

Well unless terran is really skimping on turrets (which would be dumb xD) that shouldn't work.

With 1HP/Sec turrets should be less of a problem. If you don't lose a Muta while killing a Turret the Mutas should regen the damage done pretty fast.

Does tempest do 50 damage or 80 to massive air? Their description is unclear.

Seems like some pretty good patches. I really like the direction HotS is going, or in the very least how it seems like it is going.

well like I said unless terran is really skimping on defenses and relying on widows only (which is stupid) then sure, but most terrans have a couple turrents which buys them time for marines to go or thors if they are going mech.

I don't think Oracles are going to make it to final version already because of the low level / high level dynamic.

I think they are fine at a high level but low level players are going to be so confused when they look away from their mineral line and find every worker dead in 5 seconds bc the other guy flew in 4 oracles.

If it's too strong they'll change it out of combat regen which might be a better solution anyway.
