Because Terran the only buff Terran has gotten against Protoss is increased Medivac heal rate, that by the way does next to no difference against Storms. Hellbats are useless once HTs are out as they are too slow to dodge Storms. | ||

They didn't buff infestors to where they were before, they just made them a viable option, which is good considering how strong bio is now. It also starts to fix the muta only play in zvz. As for broodlord infestor now; in zvp roach hydra viper seems like a better composition from the mid to late game anyways and toss has tempest now which counters broodlords, not to mention carriers are amazing now. In zvt, the medivac buffs will allow for better multiprong attacking (MMA and Polt omgggggg) against broodlord infestor, and when going mech there will already be a buff to air armor so thor/air combos will be very good I think. Fungal still fucking freezes units. I will not be happy with the infestor, ever, until this changes. Infested Terrans are now exactly where they should be. Tank shot fodder, and good economy harass. They should never have been "mass infestors and spawn free army anywhere you feel like" | ||

But the infestor buff? ...Really, Blizzard? You want to make the infestor BETTER in ZvT? Were you feeling like the matchup was just too easy for Terran? Infestors were extremely trashy after fungal became a projectile, it was a useless unit. I know that armchair game designers think fungal is bad for the game or whatever, but whatever you think of that, nerfing a unit to uselessness isn't the way to go. We've already had enough of that in wol | ||

Its actually funny. Becuase they didn't want widow mines to be too similar to mines in BW they make them hit air --> unforutnately that has some uintended consequences as it makes mutas too weak --> they chose to buff mutas --> unintended consequences as mutas now dominate zvz --> they buff the infestor --> soon to be unintended consequence as the infestor gets too strong again. God I am so tired of the incompetency of Blizzard right now. They could just have chosen to remove widow mine AA and buff it vs ground. | ||

( which doesn't matter that much since reapers is what is breaking TvT right now ) Yeah true. Forgot for a moment how beefy gateway units actually are... I guess I dislike this change as well then. | ||

Widow mines are now even more useless in TvP. Not sure how they came out with a changeset like this after how good the last one was. | ||

God I am so tired of the incompetency of Blizzard right now. Infestors won't get too strong, they will just not be completely useless. Pretty noticeable difference, this way you might actually be able to do infestor builds | ||

All the butthurt ITT is also hysterical. I know you all want FG to be a completely worthless spell, but too fucking bad. I'd love it if marines and FFs and blink were all worthless, too, but that's not going to happen either. | ||

I'm saying why this happened and giving reasons why you shouldn't be freaking out about the change, unless you're just mad about how the spell works and not about the balance of it. | ||

Sure, an invisible siege tank with 5 range that costs 75/25, buildsd two at a time, and fires in a burst and then recharges for 40 seconds. That makes about as much sense as saying if you took away the stalker's AA attack, it would basically be a dark templar. | ||
