omfg

warp gate was needed. Dunno if this will fix the issue or just delay it though.

Burrow nerf whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy????

I can understand the nydus mouth delay, that thing spawned way too fast. Say you had ur units at ur nat on DO, and a nydus spawns in the back of ur main. Even if you see it drop down, you can't get there in time.

Yea hydras needed a little nerf imo.

I can understand some of the infestor nerfs ,but the life reduction? wtf they die so easily already. >.<

..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Nice to see the hydralisk nerf. Using infestors I'm still more worried about the instant interrupt from phoenix than I am about a range nerf.

I don't think there's any simple way to fix warp gates for pvp without it having any effect on the other races, I'm also sure they did not just randomly choose to use this way to balance pvp strategies but they have good reasoning to use this one over the other ways of doing so.

Besides that its just the beta and they're allowed to fuck around if they feel its needed.

Just going to put in into perspective for, burrow nerfs, infestors nerfs and nydus nerfs, I never actually used any of these and still win majority of my games in plat.


Do none of your games make it to the midgame? Nydus is very, very useful... Also you must have never fought a thor-backed army if you don't think infestors are useful Even NP'ing a single thor can dramatically change a battle's outcome


Majority of my games end around the 3 base point15-20mins, I don't doubt the strength of these before this patch but it was never necessary for my games.

Isn't 1 gate -> robo -> 2nd gate the typical counter to roach rush... just get that 1 immortal out really quick, ez pz?

Funny sidenote: I am currently around rank 10 platinum without ever using infestors or nydus worms offensively (unless the game was 100% over). I don't even use burrow. So I only really care about the hydra nerf for now, and it doesn't seem very significant to me.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Protoss change could make PvP actually worth playing.
As zerg I only am unhappy with the hydralisk nerf.

Its more that Roaches are the problem, cant see why they havent got any nerf yet.

And Stalkers are such a disapointment.. 8 atk + 6?? what a joke.. Theres pretty much no point in making stalkers.

I don't see how you can't use infestors in ZvT, fungal is just too good here. Nydus, yea you don't need it. Burrow is really only used to block expos or in ZvZ. So yea the nerfs are not anything crazy.

What they really need to nerf is imbalords lol. Fucking clean up so many close games by just making a half a dozen of these.

Thinking like that will ensure that you remain in the copper/bronze league. I had some noob protoss partner that refused to make stalkers because "they suck" and he would get rolled in 2v2 every time because you simply can't underestimate the power of range.

I like these changes .

I'm a protoss player and warp gate tech definitely needed an increase in research time.

Good patch overall, though I really, really wish they'd get around to buffing Stalkers soon. Right now, they do less damage than an unupgraded Marine versus light...and cost more than twice as much. It's pretty ridiculous.

Well if you weren't dumb you'd realize that dragoons do half damage to zeals, lings, marines etc in scbw. So it's nearly the same. Zeal shields are reduced as well. The biggest problem with them is their HP.

8 Damage...?
They should do 10 damage barring armor.

Agreed. I think the warpgate change was HUGE and maybe could've been a little lower, but with chrono boost it might be fine, I haven't tested it yet. And I don't see why they didn't add even +2 attack to stalkers. They do the least amount of damage in the protoss arsenal.

Really supprised no change to Brood lords. It has to be the most obvious imbalance out there right now.
