which lasts 10 seconds = permanently?
or until the infestor is destroyedI'm guessing the "10 second" thing is incase your infestor dies the moment it parasites something, so you can at least mind control something for a short time.
IMO it means it lasts max 10 seconds. But if your infestor dies before it, the spell ends.

for those questioning the source..
http://www.starcraft2.com/launcher/patch-notes.htm
the whole 'or until the infestor dies' just explains what channeling means ..they use it in wow a lot. it just means that if you kill the infestor while it's mind controlling it, the mind control will end immediately.

Well NP is still gonna be limited by the number of infesters and the energy cost of the spell. Even if its still cheap and spam able NP doesn't have that great of range, probably around 7-8 range? Gonna have to get awfully close to the front lines to reach collosi and siege tanks in the rear. And even if the zerg gets the cast off the infester should with micro die quickly to any range generalists in the area; ie hydra, stalkers, M&M

pz mothership.
reapers still need a building nerf. looks like the dps went ^

Potential additional info posted by a user on the Battle.net beta forums.
Protoss
* Feedback costs 50 energy, no cooldown and has a range of 9.
* Mass Recall costs 100 energy, and has a radius of 6.5.
* All units cannot move, attack, or cast for a period of 2 seconds before and after Mass Recall.
Terran
* Thor splash damage increased from 3 to 5.
Zerg
* Infested Terrans can spawn up to 3 units away.
* Neural Parasite has graphics for a tentacle.
* Fungal Growth damage changed from 1.25 to 2.25.
* Air-based cocoons gained armor.
Note: leeched from the data files. I make no claims to absolute accuracy or completeness.

Wrap nuke was fun while it lasted

I enjoyed the Chrono boost in 2v2, but since the other races Macro abilities were useless to the partner (trade minerals with my MULE yo) they probably figured it for the best.
As for the infester change wording, I read that as they can MC any type of unit, not a huge AoE MC.

Im currently talking to someone who said the patch notes arent released yet. So.. this is fake.

Interesting the Roach didn't change.
Protoss got nerfed hard lol.
Apart from mothership, i dont think theres alot of bad
Feedback>>>Phase shift Imo
Trade teleport for recall, not a huge loss
I dont think changing the collision size or whatever from the colossus will hurt much

None of these are legit until Blizzard posts them on their forums.
Just wait for it.
Or until they place it in their beta, oh wait.

Just guessing, but its because Zerg and Terrans macro boosters cannot be used on allies? They cant give their Protoss parter a mule or give him 4 more larvae (well idk about if your both zerg but i doubt it? Sooner or later every good 2v2 team would involve at least 1 protoss. Just my assumptions tho.

Who knows... I wanted to test it in this early stage with my friend though at one point (both of us not in beta). Do a terran infantry build and get the add on to produce 2x the units. Wondered how beautiful that would have looked!

And who are you talking to that is a source?
|
can you spawn larva on an allies Hatchery in 2v2?
|
I think the MULE coming 15 seconds sooner is a godsend to that..early Marine push I guess. Or probably a second refinery sooner.

what is a "building pathing radius" ? I think its how the unit acts around buildings when it moves, i think by making the radius smaller they made the colossus not get stuck easily on buildings by mis-rally. edit: I'm just curious about the gateway build time, what is the justification for that? did a bunch of ppl get 2 gate rushed or something? 2 gate zealots was the only way to play PvP. Hopefully this nerf will make it easier to tech as Protoss. I always felt nooby getting 2 gates every PvP. If i wanted to end a game quickly i 3gated! Seriously though, i've had alot of long PvP games.
Yeah, after both players 2 gate and trade off zealots the game can turn into late game.
