Without decreasing the cost? Seems like it becomes like blink but without the real virtues. I really like the static defense buffs, seems going spine crawlers might be much better for defense against roach when it is ZvZ. spine crawlers dont do any more damage vs roaches than they did before.... roaches are armored, spines did 30 vs armored spines now do 30 vs armored. same ol' ZvZ Except that spine crawlers now do 37% more DPS. ![]() | ||

The missile turret still seems kinda weak to me compared to the others. That is unless it's 12x2. I can't download the patch yet though, so it must not have hit the US yet. still? the turret was the best static in the game before >_< now its a tossup, prolly spines are on top. | ||

#1: Scout the starport. #2a: Get static D which is now stronger (and that z move around as needed) #2b: Get AA units #2c: some combo of a and b (which is also more viable because of static d buff) Zerg need to get used to the face that maybe spore crawlers will become more necessary since scourge don't exist anymore. EDIT: Also, any patch that makes roaches less used is good IMO. They are destroying racial identity as a cheap tank for what should be the expendable/fast/suicide race. | ||

This won't stop zvz from revolving around roaches. | ||

storm needed the nerf, however temp tech tree is still outclassed by robo early game. | ||

Preface: I'm a Terran player. I was a Protoss player but switched after getting my face pounded in by good Terrans. The banshee buff seemed unnecessary. They've been a major part of a lot of my builds and it's particularly difficult for Protoss to properly respond to them Static defense buffs in general were a good call. The Terran missile turret needed this buff vs mutas incredibly badly, and the thor splash damage is nice as well. The broodlord (GGLord?) nerf was way needed. I actually would have rather seen the overall damage stay the same but have them changed to one attack and therefore only one broodling spawn, but I suppose this works too. I still think they're a bit too high on HP, but I guess they're a "capital ship" and should stay as they are in that regard. It just feels like my units hardly hurt them. Even vikings. Even as a Terran player, and understanding the frustration of being psi stormed into our bio mass, I STILL disagree with the psi storm nerf. I would have been OK with this change if archons were made more viable, but this really makes the templar tech tree look even more abysmal. Why not add a 0.5 radius to splash damage to the archon as well? Does protoss struggle against mutas as bad as terran at the moment? I really have no idea. | ||

Even if spore crawlers were free, it still kills a drone and takes time. In that time a 2 banshee will kill your queen, and at least 90% of your drones. | ||
