overall they really don't care that much about uniqueness so long as no 2 races have the same unit.


does not compute.

wow the infestor got buffed ! dont think this changes the ball vs ball combat, there is still no tactical stuff like ( for example ) spidermines, lurkers. for such a huge patch i would like to see stuff that makes the game deeper


Well, it seems like they were mainly focusing on the Battle.net interface more than anything..

I just hope that they took note on the fact that Zerg need some sort of rework..

I play toss in the top 10 in my plat level and I have won several games against terrans that go straight to maras.

All I had to do was go sentry/immortal with robo started before any military units. Chrono the immortals non-stop and attack with 4-5 units. It ended the game flat-out in several cases and crippled terran in others. Immortals were too fast.

That said, I do have problems when terran and I are on equal footing and he has mass maras. This is going to hurt in that regard.

The fix her stops the early game abuse, but I can not say I am happy with the effects in the mid-game.
Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go.

Remember the Dustin Browder interview everyone. They created cool units, without thinking of how they fit into the general feel.


Except the new zerg units aren't that cool to begin with...
Compared to the mechanics of those we lost, anyway.



It shows up all the time but if Bnet is down you will see it since Starcraft II requires internet to start up and somehow bnet being down affects the load time.

leg speed for zealots costs still 200/200, so what was the problem with marauder concussion shells at patch 8?



Remember Speed Zealots negate the slow pretty much and also Terran is spending 150/150 on Stim packs.


The only use of speed zealots is to allow your zealots to get 1 hit off before they get kited to death....

wtf


Yes, the vulture that gives splash damage instead of spider mines and moves faster than every Protoss unit is so weak.

Spine Crawler
Attack period decreased from 1.6 to 1.85.

What?!


Typo. It attacks slower. But still faster than before patch 7. They were definitely too weak pre-7, but in 7 they were a bit strong considering they were not true "static" defense. Combined with the Queen you don't have as much of a Drone dilemma anymore, and Spines could take a bit of a nerf without being useless, imo.

I think that Blizzard is smart for not focusing much on balance this patch. Balance takes time to sort out. Sometimes imbalances come and go just from people playing more and figuring stuff out. These Bnet changes are really good. I'd expect a balance patch maybe 2 weeks from now or so.

wow how could they buff infestor...

especially parasite. I guess they don't want T to be able to move out of their base without 20 siege tanks

Infestors seem like a great buff but when they say they are going to address zerg diversity, I really thought they would be making alot more changes then just buffing the infestor and nerfing sunkens and queens...

Blizzard sure likes buffing the strongest race and nerfing the weakest.

Yes, the change in marauders is a buff, but it is going to have LITTLE change overall, 50/50 less and a small decrease in time does not equal:

OMG MARA IMBA SHTTTTT TERRAN OP NOW.

Seriously?
Im terrible, lets be real.

This is such a terrible patch.

Buffing Marauders when they were already extremely strong in all MU's?? Why buff Marauders and nerf Immortals (pretty substantial nerf, even) when Immortals are the only good counter against them in the early-mid game? Also buffing neural parasite will nullify robotics play in the mid-game.

Also why remove LT and Metalopolis from the 2v2 pool? They were 10000x better than Twilight Fortress, which is perhaps the worst map ever designed.


"nullify robotics play" please, try playing versus an endgame protoss army with a couple of colossus in the back.
