1. Forcefield cost up to 125 energy from 50.
2. Immortal damage now flat 8x4(+1).
3. Siege Tank gas cost down to 75 from 125.
4. Reaper gas cost down to 25 from 50. Merc Compound building (100/100) re-introduced as requirement for Reapers. Spider Mines upgrade added to Merc Compound (each Reaper gains 2 Spider Mines, which reside initially on their shoulder pads). Spider Mines may be placed on buildings and will detonate after 10 second time dealing 150damage (unless destroyed). Nitro Packs moved to Merc Compound.
5. Thor armor raised to 2 from 1. Anti-Air attack is now flak and animation evolves cannons on Thor's back. Thor 250mm cannon ability removed. New Berserker ability added to Thor. Ability is passive and allows the thor to fire at 2 targets simultaneously (must be either only ground or air). When targeting ground targets 2 of the Thors 6 cannons are chosen at random and fired at the target. The Thor is only able to target multiple targets if they are both in front of the Thor.

ps. I figured I might as well have some fun with 4 and 5, since I'm not sure what are good balance suggestions; ie. minimum impact changes.

Queen now flies, is lair tech, and can cast spawn broodlings, ensnare, and spawn infested terrain.
Mule is replaced with an extra scv.
Chrono boost only works on forge upgrades.
All forge upgrades time increased by 50%.
Broodlord no longer shoots broodlings, and name change to Swarm Guardian.

This.

On the other hand, the one person to suggest a nerf to sentries max mana is a genius.

1. Ultralisk collision size reduced
2. Archon collision size reduced
3. Pheonix damage changed from 2*5 (+ 5) to 2*7 (+3)
4. Reaper damage reduced from 2*4(+4) to 2*4(+3), Reaper hps increased from 50 to 60
5. Baneling "volatile burst" ability changed: damage reduced to 10(+15), heals allied zerg in splash area for 10 damage.
Experience is an excellent teacher, but her fees are very high.

1. force field nerf (my favourite idea is to make it channeled, but the most likely outcome is 75 mana cost). Slight possibility of guardian shield requiring research, or swapping places with hallu
2. immortal build time +15s, -10 bonus dmg versus armor
3. reactor build time back to 40s (or marine build time decrease)
4. ultralisk buff. +1 base armor seems sensible
5. scan energy cost reduced to 25

You'd basically be 100% forced to wall in every single game and then forced to go straight to immortals in the possibility that they go roaches (since if you don't have the immortals your wall will get shot down and you'll lose your pylons/gateways).

It will make every single PvZ the exact same strategy for the protoss.

making it 75 energy would smooth the entire game while keeping 50 would only be good for this argument
sorry but the change is much more important than ur window of timing to defend a speedling rush

its better if they change it to 75 and compensates it by buffing toss or nerfing zerg so tosses can defend vs speedling alling. i dont know how exactly u would do that but i dont know pvz in general but the argument of keeping it on 50 is ridiculous here

besides terran already gotta wallin to stop zerg rushes too, and we cant even wallin with supply depots anymore because baneling owns it.

but i agree its ridiculous that u have to wallin every game just to be safe vs zerg

thats pretty much bs seeing how toss almost never upgrade anything in the early game or early-midgame while terran and zerg r upgrading all throughout the game
i hope they dont add upgrade for the hardened shields tho

1. Forcefield energy cost increased from 50 to 75
2. Forcefield energy cost increased from 75 to 100
3. Forcefield energy cost increased from 100 to 150
4. Korea.
5. Forcefield energy cost increased from 150 to 201

edit: Actually I think it's pretty unlikely we'll see anything that would qualify as a nerf to FF, it's strong, but it's not that great.

force field cost to 75
starting mana of sentry 75
max mana 300
mana regeneration x1.5

That should fix everything

Make an upgrade to start with +25 energy available at the cybercore, make it relatively cheap and short time (100/75/50 maybe?)

Thus you can do your current build, if you see all-in lings, you wall ramp with zealots long enough to get a sentry out for 25 seconds, then you get this upg in time to hold off all-n roaches, easy...

nerfing forcefield is stupid as shit for it would really fuck up the balance of early game P. I think the other races just need better ways to deal with mass forcefields (assuming they are indeed imba which I'm not so sure). Easiest way would be to lower gas cost on ghost a bit so EMPing is easier for Terran (also helps vs mass storm), and maybe changing fungal growth to make any affected caster unable to cast a spell while caught in it (which might actually make it TOO good lol and would need to be nerfed in other ways....welll either way you get my point )

Personally I prefer adding in new ways for the races to deal with it (such as giving zerg a proper SNIPE unit like how mutas were able to snipe templar back in BW) instead of just nerfing it, since forcefield micro is really the most fun thing in SC2 right now (and really hte only thing making it balanced for protoss)

fixed your numbers for you!

in seriousness though, sentry is simply too powerful if you actually know how to use forcefield, either forcefield needs a nerf, or sentry needs to have it's attack nerfed into oblivion.

Actually, if forcefield is just reduced in range significantly protoss will have to actually play the positioning fight, instead of just balling up and creating their own battlefield with force fields.
This would not nerf it's ability to wall in a protoss against early cheese, but it would prevent the stupidness that happens with it once you get 6+ sentries + colossus

1) Hatcheries may no longer have more than 7 spawned lava at a time
2) Force field energy up to 75
3) Broodlord rate of fire reduced by 15%
4) Siege tank cost reduced to 100 gas
5) Stalkers can no longer blink past destructible rocks.

BTW this is a cool contest, it would be awesome if a Beta Key was given to anyone who could get all 5 changes exactly. Maybe TL could put up one of their 500 keys.
