Perfect, right as i switch to protoss. they nerf my old race to the high heavens. This was a shitty patch IMO, I was expecting changes in game play. instead we get achievements..uh great who cares..I want balance changes to the game not "achievements" no one will care about

Infested Terran may be a lame spell, but if they make it good enough then people will use it, there's no doubt about that.

I'm only a gold player but the buff to marauders just doesn't make sense to me as a protoss. Just about every terran i play goes mass marauders and with the immortal build time increase it worries me that I won't be able to defend against roaches. This is a sad day

Jinro, do you think they should have nerfed Forcefield instead of nerfing the Immortal?

I don't know, it depends on how force field works for PvZ which I know next to nothing about. But I do know that I'd much rather see a way to make mech not suck, than this.

The absolute easiest way would probably be adding spidermines, which would give mech T a USEFUL mineral-sink for TvP. Making the tank 100 gas would also be ok but not really make SC2 mech more fun (it's boring - camp, macro, wait for P to impale himself or maybe attack if you feel really frisky).

I don't even think PvT is that imba or anything, just annoying to play right now.

Basically, T mech was already immobile, and got even less mobile while P got 10x more mobile. In addition, it's less capable of attacking, and not as overpowering in terms of efficiency.

The problem with Terran mech is that it's an AoEfest. Tanks deal splash damage, thors have an anti-air splash attack, hellions deal splash damage. You get enough of these, and units with regular attacks like zealots, immortals, roaches, hydras, etc. become useless against the terran ball of doom. To compensate for the superior scaling of terran mech (the more units there are on both sides, the stronger the terran mech army becomes compared to the other army), mech is way immobile.

Tone down the scaling of terran mech (less splash damage), and make it less immobile.

Sure, I'd go for that.


Another thing to add

Why bother going mech when its so easy to go marauder ghost?
More mobile, more damage, easier to transition to from 4 rax FE

IHMO they should make it easier for all the races to FE so that it doesn't become a 1 base slugfest for the first 8 minutes of the game.
Before 4raxFE, it was basically if toss FE, then terran rolls him with 1 base, and if terran FE, then toss rolls over with 1 base

PvZ was almost similar until zergs started going for the 6 sunken line to counter 1 base all in toss, and until toss discovered 12gate forge FE (with a MASSIVE simcity wall lol)
Now we get to see some variety, though it will take a while before tosses get used to FE as standard (especially given our current map pool)

Whilst all this is great, current map pool absolutely sucks. Desert oasis, scrapyard station need to go. Metalopolis is really Z favoured because Z can FE and toss cant...
Blistering sands is stupid because it negates any kind of natural defence, so FE is impossible to defend vs 1 base agression

If we get to see more longer macro games (where both players dont make it there with exploitable builds and only using standard play) then we get to have much better insight on how to balance the game long term

TVZ i know v little about (other than its fun to watch koreans)

PVP and TVT are both really fun

Still think the ramp is too difficult to defend, should be easier to def

Also think that the whole mara/immortal/roach (in that order) is still warping the game too much

but hey thats just my opinion

edit: oh i dont actually think much of the patch rly. obv aprotoss nerf. Zerg changes are pretty minor. concussion changes nothing it is sitll the same as before mostly. Maybe its possible to do some 2 rax proxy mara cheese or something but i doubt it affect the game much

TL should host a little chat between the "pros" so they can discuss with the public hearing/seeing what they say, but without the public to interrupt.

This thread has so much nonsense(wich i think the most threads have nowadays on TL with the new population) that i feel like crying.

I'm really not looking forward to 2+ Infestors sneaking into my base, or getting dropped, chucking out a buttload of Infested Terrans and destroying my Nexus.

As someone said, 16 Infested Terrans will be able to do a ton of damage before they die.

According to this table: http://darkblizz.org/Forum2/general-discussion/complete-starcraft-2-beta-units-stats/?action=dlattach;attach=534

It'll take 16 Infested Terrans 13 shots a piece to kill a Nexus. With an attack rate of 0.8608, it'll take them 11 seconds to kill the thing, and then they live for another 9...

That is some seriously dangerous harassment power right there.

To put it into perspective, that's how long it would take FIVE Dark Templar to kill the same building.

I will fill it out more thoroughly once I actually get to play. Until then, I think my post covers the basics.

People saying make mech more mobile? Dude the defining characteristic of terran is there slow pushes and tanks. The problem right now is that theres immobile army and then the mobile army that does the same amount of damage pretty much... Your choice
