EPTAnd I think ZvZ was already going towards the BW style of muta/ling all day every day with the FG projectile. It's so fucking hard to hit mutas now, and it won't even do as much as before now.

Their bonus damage used to be 30, now it's 50. This is on top of their basic attack of 30, so the total damage against massive, factoring in the bonus damage on top of the basic attack, went from 30+30 to 30+50, which is 60 to 80.

It will now take 6.875 shots from the Tempest to kill a BC at 550 hp. Granted, it already seemed kinda hard to use BCs in TvP due to the existence of Void Rays, Feedback, Storms, and Archon Toilets. It took 9.16 Tempest shots to kill before. Also, it will now only take 2.8125 Tempest shots to kill a Broodlord at 225 hp. It took 3.75 shots before with the 30 attack bonus vs massive air. | ||

Armory upgrades keep getting weirder, they'll probably return to their former wol state within a couple patches. | ||

The armory air upgrades made seperate i completely understand but i mean...come on what about late game zerg? still nothing has been sorted out for this. Such a shame that we are back in this position where we are going to struggle to answer it. | ||

The nerfed infestor already leaves me wary for the future of ZvZ :/ This is the biggest problem with Muta in ZvT. One single widow mine can do INSANE amounts of damage and instantly wipe out a flock of mutas (flock? murder of mutas? I don't know the precise terms). | ||

unlike how they're treating terran and protoss, with huge overhauls that affect gameplay at a very large level (medivac buff for example)...then they "fix" the race right as people get comfortable with the changes, so it feels like toss/terrans have to constantly be changing playstyles, and that isn't always easy to do, especially at high levels of play i'm sure. small changes, with fixes seem to be the way to go. i'm very happy with HotS.  and people saying mutas are a "must" in ZvZ...i mean were they ever a "bad" option? not really. fungal nullified them, and now they're useful/safe to use. i think the ZvZ matchup will be a lot more interesting. buffing zerg mid game is never a bad thing - as it was completely non-existant before HotS. now they need to fix the swarm host into a better tool imo. | ||
