Yeah and it resets the whole meta, too bad you can't wrap your mind around it.

Tank change is not such a great idea, it will make all-in play stronger while not addressing the real problem, which is that siege mode simply doesn't hit Protoss units hard enough. Hellbats might be Blizzard's answer to that problem. That kind of damage output will annihilate zealots and help maintain space between your army and the Protoss, and though it doesn't help vs immortals it could help vs archons. Reduced splash is kinda wtf. Returning splash to seeker missile is good, but I don't expect the energy requirement to stay at 75 long. Not too thrilled about the caduceus nerf, would've rather seen Blizzard play with the numbers than straight remove the heal bonus. | ||

They should just nerf the fungle so that you cant be chainfungled anymore and protoss wont need vortex anymore. I like where you are coming from on Fungle but they will not nerf Fungle to where it doesn't stop you complete. If they made it like a slow and did little damage over time that would be fine. Blizzard will not do this though | ||

The new hellbat is terrible idea, its basically terran roach now, and with medivacs it will be pretty strong imo. Loved the way they were before. Reaper is now a weaker marine with better mobility? Bad change imo. No need to research siege mod? Hooray for even more timing pushes And the medivac... loved the upgrade the way it was before, I mean come on, its as high in tech tree as BCs.... now its just another redundant upgrade in terran book. The only things I like about this patch are the new seeker missiles and envision / time warp ability switch. | ||

"Siege Tank This change should mainly affect TvP, so that teching to mech is easier. That explanation is just....I don't know what to say. It feels like blizzard is just forcing the issue at hand and barely trying to fix it. | ||

Opening mech is not a nightmare, it's actually fairly powerful in the early mid game before Protoss have the time and money to get all the tools out to deal with it. That's why the 1/1/1 was so effective for so long. The longer the game goes on the less effective it is, a late game Protoss army just shits all over mech and this will not change that. Not saying you're wrong, but people said the same about the queen/OL buffs, and look how much of a difference that made for zergs and their lategame. | ||

That tank buff is gonna make for some nasty all-ins in PvT but still not fix mech. All it will do is make 1/1/1s viable again. I imagine I will be getting hit with lots of weird cheeses on the beta tonight. | ||

the toss MSC/Oracle swap was a really good change though. raven change was also a + the tank change - just dumb and is going to revolutionize terran vs terran even moreso. meh. | ||

Tempests do 80 damage and 2 shot broodlords. You should learn how to incorporate tempests in your army and use them correctly instead of complaining that mass mass tempest doesn't beat bl/corr/infestor. Most zergs dont' even go that composition anymore because if the toss is smart and gets a few tempests with templar/colossi it will crush that composition. Also air toss is the strongest late game army and CRUSHES late game pvz. If you can get the composition of voidray/tempest/templar you win. | ||
