EPTEdit: Nvm, thought this was Revelation, and apparently that already has a 60 second duration. In my mind I was thinking double what it current lasts... holy crap.

Then you wonder why Blizzard does not listen to your ridiculous suggestions. Lol this exactly. its a called a freckin beta for a reason, not that I think 90% of the stuff that people are whining about is even justified | ||

You should never be able to take free shots at your opponents army. yea it probably should be like a siege tank where it has to remain stationary until its ability is toggled otherwise it has a normal range. | ||

Oracle (damage) and tempest (damage vs air massive and/or supply) need a fix as well. | ||

Because clearly everything will be OP and no one will ever patch ever. Please calm down. The strategies they're playing with are not even well-defined yet. The metagame will take months to develop, and we'll doubtless see a few more balance patches between release and year's end. Just give it some time. The more effort you put into claiming brokenness, the less effort you're putting into actually trying to deal with the realities of the game and find viable strategies. | ||

You do realize it's all of your fault that WoL ended up a no rush 10min 200/200 game right? Nerf this nerf that...sooner or later NOTHING is good at anything anymore. For fucks sake, just play the game and give criticism, not incessant bitching and complaining. The criticism doesn't even have to be constructive, my god. If I was blizzard I'd completely 'ignore' you too. | ||

After this patch, you still need 3 mines to kill an immortal, not 2. The widow mine buff is not as good as many would think. The same logic applies to all protoss units that 1 mine can't 1-shot. The reason is that after the first mine taking out the shield, the life that left on a protoss will only take 125 damage instead of 125+35 damage. So, immortal, colossus, tempest, carrier will not be affected too much by this patch. | ||

Im not a fan of a deathball because its stupid and requires nearly no skill but like in WoL im pretty sure the deathball will dissappear in the near future because people learn new builds and ways to deal with it so it wont be that effective anymore. Stalker now gets onehitted by widow mines again so i think thats a good buff for terran for some more space control in the mid-late but im not sure what to think about the spore buff because it wont really help in the later stages when the muta count is higher then 20 and infestor fungals will never hit a muta again if the player is cautious. | ||

Terran don't need more early/mid-game strength vs Protoss with this unit. They're tier1 is GG as is vs Protoss, it's hard on the toss at those stages of the game as is. Everyone will agree that the strength of Terran tier1 is evident by the fact that they can work with those units ALL game. All in all bot sure why Terran need more anti-toss strength in the early/mid game. | ||

I don't quite understand how that unit has become basically a baneling on steroids. Buffed dmg, hits air and ground, re-usable, free burrow and cheap...I fail to see the drawback? I feel as if the better iteration of it was when it was sacrificed upon attack, especially now that it's gotten a damage buff.

And losing tier 1 units asap by a widow mine is crazy. It was good before and really bolstered terrain attacks and defences already as it was. | ||

This is a very tricking change. | ||

So because Infestor/BL is too good in WoL Skytoss is justified as being just as inbalanced..? Also many Zergs came to terms with IF/BL being to good... | ||
