Not as many balance changes as expected. Awesome about the new maps though! I didn't expect that. I kinda wish we would get the zerg bleeding buildings though D:

Well I will continue to play Terran and try to build as few marauders as possible, lol.

I will also probably continue to get rolled late game by Protoss. Please give us an alternative to massing marauders! They are no fun to use!!
I admire your commitment to being *very* oily

Ultras got a significant indirect buff with the infestor buff (easier transition). They're still pretty bad tho...

They didn't mention the change (fix) to planetary fortress and HSM though, despite that they were fixed. I assume Blizzard are too embarressed to mentioned it.

Otherwise almost 50% less damage for HSM would be something people want to know about.

You sure?

patch 9 is 15097, not the leaked 15073

Marauder's definitely don't need to be any more powerful...but this is a much more sane cost for the upgrade. NOW, Blizzard can go ahead feel free to nerf their hp/damage!

The other changes are fine. Every patch, people whine about how Blizzard isn't making all of the drastic "THIS WILL FIX THE GAME!" changes the forum-goers are all suggesting...but that's usually because the proposed changes would be totally disastrous. Small changes, I think, are the way to go in balancing the game.


Yes and it is easy to identify a problem but it can take several patches for a solution to be internally developed/tested and then rolled out in a new patch.

Patch 8 Marauders were still the most used T unit. They their nerf got "fixed". I guess they want all T players to just mass marauder every map, every matchup.

And Tanks were used in every matchup for T in BW. Whats the problem?

Yes, but they weren't used as the backbone for T except in TvP. In TvZ tanks were support units for taking out lurkers. Occasionally a T might go mech, but that's pretty rare.

What Brood War were you watching? There were mech builds for TvZ, popular because they don't require as much micro and they are very good against Ultras, and TvT is literally nothing but siege tanks and dropships

This. I recognize the marauder is very useful, very good unit, but it is just so boring and most of the time I do what I can to not use them at all.

Alternatives I've found are marines/ghosts into mech/ghosts and banshees/vikings. Too bad banshees and vikings are just as boring as marauders.

Well, since the SCV hasn't had its HP returned to 60, this patch is useless.

Fungal Growth projectile removed; Units in the target area are now instantly hit.

Yeah, not like that shit was strong enough already --_--

Neural Parasite change seems good tho, 7 range wasn't enough for a unit that fragile.

Immortal nerf seems pointless? By that I mean, the immortal has never struck me as a unit that was problematic, there are ample ways of dealing with it. Force field on the other hand....

It's a lot more fun than dying at least

I don't think a lot of the mathcrafting people here do is legitimate. Very small changes can have far reaching consequences in such a complex system.

Don't think so.
