The current issue with marauder vs stalker (that I've come across) is that poking at the protoss with your first few marauders to make sure they are building units results in either you doing tons of damage because they don't have lots of units, or you losing all your marauders because the stalkers are faster and can follow them all the way home. Before patch 8, you could slow them down as you run away and make it not worth it for them to try chase you.

You might want to consider that Marauders with slow can do just that to every single Protoss unit.  They also win 1on1 vs Stalkers and are actually 25min and 25 gas cheaper.

Except for the patch+reset this week part of course. Empathe talked directly to Blizzard. You see game journalists got better contacts than you and me. Haha. Thanks. mh ok that's pretty cool then. Hugely surprised about the marauder thing then, I didnt feel like it was an "overnerf" at all. edit: so if all of this is true I'd recommend that you write "revealed to us", that makes it more believable and makes the reader aware of what's going on. Cause I was thinking "where on earth was that revealed" It's pretty self-explanatory. No need to say "to us." Also, 25 other people were in the room when Chris and Dustin told us
Well I'm just saying that it's always better to know where the news is actually coming from.
Since your article is telling the truth I'm sorry I had such critical words for it but please understand that just one or two days ago there was a thread on TL, bringing false news about chat channels being implemented in the next patch so it's only natural to be skeptical.

I some how got a loss from some 2 players playing against each other...
![[image loading]](http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/3760/screenshot009ng.jpg)
That game is in my match list...
|
I still have my friends list reset, and when I try to re-add my friends, Bnet tells me they're already on my list... even though I can't see them.
Oh yeah, there's also the minor quibble of not being able to join / host custom games, or play ladder games.
|
I am logging on as different people for some reason. I am typing my user/pass like regular but it is logging me on to all different kinds of accounts. I just logged onto some guys account who was number 2 on platinum 1v1, and I have also got into a couple of different peoples accounts.
This is pretty messed up - hopefully this gets fixed soon.

yy its the same for all. Pretty messed up. Good thing that they gave out so many keys in the end else this problem would have occurred at release wich would have been pretty nasty : )

I have the same problem :/
You just have to try multiple times until it works.I hope this get fixed after the patch.

My friend just got a stats reset (friends list is still there).
|

|
I hope it comes out today
|
I was hoping I wouldn't get hit by the reset stick, but it happened to me too yesterday. I got back into gold, but I'm down quite a bit from where I was  Please let the patch happen today. If they are holding it back despite all these problems, it must be an absolutely huge content patch.

server isnt down you still can login after few tries
obviously dont count on that you will have your stats or friendlist saved, rly hope blizzard will patch it today because its unplayable atm ;/

And what was the case before this from P's perspective? Stupid.
