You couldn't do that in v1, before gateways and chrono got nerfed AND barracks/tech lab was buffed. Try this on Desert Oasis against a Terran who isn't playing with his feet and glhf with that. | ||

(if it was his lifestream i watched yesterday) A balanced army of zealots, stalkers, immortals and 1 or 2 colossi in the back with decent micro is just near unbeatable for terran it looks like. Bio + Medivac + Viking + Ghost :p | ||

I realize beta is expected to receive massive balance changes back and forth, but I really dislike that Blizzard would even take note of what the whining noobs (mostly non-sc players) complain about on the forums. Imho the current beta pool has too little serious Starcraft players that know what they're talking about when it comes to balance. Those people think further into what changes to one race does to other races. Sadly, right now theres too many elite idiots in the beta pool who want their race buffed and others nerfed because they can't think of ways to counter what they get owned by. As for this patch, I think it sucks that toss recieved a cb nerf on top of the gateway nerf (which makes core later, etc etc...) but I dont expect it to stay this way. MS I really care less about. Either way, regardless of how bad Protoss get nerfed, I'll still continue to try to find ways to beat other players as toss. I'm not in beta yet but I do follow it very closely. (Thank god for no NDA) | ||

Once people develop strategies with them they can nerf them back to a balanced state. If this boost was too good for terran then maybe the reason was that they didn't see enough terrans in the ladders. If only a few people play one race then its hard to balance it. Hmmm. They really need to buff Hellions, then. | ||

As a P player this has be ticked. Nerf my gateways Take away my moship starting energy Take away wormhole transit (I actually loved this ability) Then nerf the moship to make it an unglorified unique arbiter which I will no longer waste my minerals on? puh-leeze Nerf my chrono boost AND THEN buff early T (which was already my worst match-up. (Plus they already buffed the build time on orbital command so DT's are even less viable.. FAIL! Yeah there goes any chance I had of doing decent in the near future with P... le sigh. I might just wait for the next patch... ~LoA | ||

ADAPT and then see what happens. Stop whining before even trying. Or else all the feedback blizzard is going to get will be on the level of "MARAUDERS ARE IMBALANCED, THEY KILL ME. TAKE MARAUDERS OUT OF GAME PLEASE" Well said. Blizzard get enough useless feedback from the WoW players, so you should be using things that are least represented in order for them to fix the problems and make the best game possible. | ||

What is wrong with you you're actually IN the beta, unlike so many of us, and you're gonna sit out because you don't want to risk a loss or two hurting your ELO? Or did this patch just ruin any possibility of fun being had from playing Protoss. God I would love to play beta even if i was only allowed to play Protoss and only could tech to the nerfed mothership..... | ||

And on topic: This is how beta works. This is not the final patch. Things will be OP during the beta. Stop crying and so will I | ||

Players are developing race attachments before the races themselves are fully defined in terms of the roles units play in them. It's beta. There are multiple reasons why it's a bad idea for you to be playing one race to the exclusion of others to begin with. One being that a good distribution of data across all three races is better than having a lot of data about one race (even if you disagreed that Protoss was imbalanced, you had to agree that there was a disproportionate slant of players toward Protoss). Another is that the races are going to undergo such drastic changes that it just simply makes no sense to hamstring yourself by saying you're going to play one race before release. | ||
