I dont see why they had to change the W hotkey.

How often does it seriously come up that you will be using an ally's warpgates?

I love how many protoss kids are going haywire over the immortal build time increase. You all knew it was coming, you all abused it to no end with warpgate all-ins into expo -> macro.

Now it is not so easy rofl. And yes, as FA said, even though immortals are of course strong vs mech, no good player just goes only mech, they ghostmech, but siege tanks for 3 supply and 125 gas? Lol?

Blizzard purposely did that because they did not want the tank to be such a central unit like it was in SC1. which is mind boggling, as right now the marauder has pretty much taken that role.

What do people really expect Terrans to make in TvP? Name some viable options other than the marauder. I doubt many P here can name any, because there are very few that are standard/viable in the match-up.

Patch 8, you had to get a lot of marauders early game to survive all of these protoss immortal/warpgate all-ins. Even a 4warpgate sentry all-in with speedlots was stronger than marauders. The concussive change was good, but tanks are still 25 gas and 1 supply too expensive.

oh, and wow, now you guys can't do similar all ins vs Zerg in PvZ. lol.

edit: and btw, stalkers with blink are extremely sexy and mobile omg. I lost to a guy yesterday who went straight stalker blink on kulas and abused being mobile between all 3 starting mineral bases

some people in the beta have trouble realizing that this is a beta, and if something is too powerful and the end-all be all, it is going to be nerfed. Marauder's were nerfed, roaches were nerfed, and now immortals have been nerfed, because all of them were too powerful. You can still use them, it is just not as easy is the key thing.

Funnily enough I think fast siege mode is really really good vs the warp-gate allin stuff, the only problem is that about half the map have backdoors or really badly placed expansions.

jinro i havent really used tanks vs toss since i just assumed they suck (charge, blink, immortal etc)
do u have any success with it?
how is voidray vs thor?
can phonix pick up sieged tanks?
isnt backstabbing (as u said with colosus) making mech impossible?

how can they make mech more viable in this mu? because im dead clueless since i find mech really strong tvz so any buff to mech would just boost tvz aswell

I tried it and it didn't work. Also a blue just said not to uninstall, and they want you to close the patcher for now until they figure out a fix.

Hmmm, as a terran player I kinda didn't like the buff we got. I was rather hoping for an alternative to marauders rather than a balance tweak to them. Oh well. And if you add in chronoboost that's what? a 7,5second delay on the immortal? Doesn't sound like something to complain too much about.


7.5 on every immortal, and that's a chrono boost which could've been used to buff the Protoss economy (whereas Terran have MULEs, not really much of a choice compared to chrono boost on econ or on tech/army), hence eventually putting the Toss behind.


The nerf to marine build time was a much bigger deal, IMO, and I don't see too many protoss asking for that to be reversed.

I'd have rather seen marines go back to being more easily massable instead of immortals get nerfed (and I either play random or zerg, so it's not terran bias), but that's not what we got, so we will just adapt and overcome as if we were good players who don't complain about minor changes before we even try them.
Don't let me say this, but you're no worse than me; it's crazy.

Agree, kinda love the hotkeys. As long as they are on the left side of the keyboard it doesn't really matter. The ONLY thing that I dislike is that Overlord is V and the Overlord drop upgrade is V aswell. S+V = create overlord, unless you are out of larva, then it's upgrade time. Countless of times I've upgraded by mistake

It's better that they change it now than in a year. You have to account for all situations.

haha no projectile means that the attack hits instantly. the range tells how far it attacks or if its melee.
the growth spell is like storm and emp now, range and hits instantly. its a buff

well yah, that's true, but then the P just added in immortals after that, and you were like NOOOOO @_@

the backdoors really suck, and same with the old expansion on scrap station that made you have to defend 3 points to keep your natural.

and people wonder why marauder bio is one of the most viable things to do.

I use it mostly to be safe from warp gate pushes, I don't do full mech after that.
Thor isn't that good vs void rays, but not terrible. I think having lots of marines is a better defense...
Phoenix can pick up sieged tanks, so "yay" for that.
Yes, backstabbing makes pure mech suicide unless you want to spend the entire game camping T_T (which the sensor towers, admittedly, make you very capable of doing).

I think the patch was decent overall, though I do feel the undodgeable fungal growth was a step in the wrong direction. I think they need to make both EMP and fungal growth dodgeable, just like storm - at least one would have the perception of being able to do something about it then.
All in all I think it was a pretty decent patch, especially as I believe that with the map editor released we will begin to see better made maps which will allow stuff like terran mech as well - I for one have yet to see a proper use of the helion against me in a TvP where I do believe it could be very strong!

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

Queen
Speed off creep decreased from 1.5 to 0.938. (Speed on creep unchanged.)
t-t so the slow mo fo will get out microed by void rays is what they want apparently.

Burrow has been changed from W to R.
Spawn Larva has been changed from R to V.

why would you change the hot key to the most used zerg thing ever to fuck with people@!!!@#!

oh well time to have fun with map making
