Wow... That video... Who the fuck would think that'd be a good idea to make phoenixes work like that? You could already shoot while moving, like you could in BW when chasing down mutas with corsairs or other mutas..

Just tried the Phoenix against Muta micro. Notice that Pheonixs only have 1 more range than Mutas. Thus it's actually really hard to micro the Pheonix's against the Mutas if you are outnumbered.

How is it hard to tell the phonix to move away from the mutas?

hard when theyre flying at them.

The phoenix is the fastest air unit in the game.


pretty hard to attack mutalisks if u are flying faster than them and away (out of range) from them...i suppose u could zig zag your phoenixes so that the mutas stay in range .... esp if they are chasing u..

Sorry, but that's nowhere near "hard". Zig zag for a while once your phoenixes stop shooting. Woo. That's easier than kiting with marauders with slow.

I'm not saying it is overpowered, but it's way too easy and MOVE should be MOVE, not some automatic moving shot thing.
The obvious counter would be Fungal Growth of course.

Protoss has now two completely random easy mode skills. Warpgates having their own global hotkey for no reason and phoenixes having moving shot by default.
While they're at it, they could give that moving shot to every unit. Why should phoenixes be special there? Think about how cool it would be if a Thor was slowly approaching a building while it is shooting at it?

It's just ridiculous.


I still dont get how this now moving shot works T_T someone please explain


just watch this video



damn sexy !

I'd like to see moving shots for every ranged unit, just for the laugh, imagine the mess, melee units would be totally useless, I hope this kind of thing cand me modified in the editor.

from i terrans perspective i think its a step ahead for tvz. thor drop less powerful (2 hitting queens was really mad) and metal more reliable because of the infestor nerf.

tvp is still a catastrophe. what the hell is up with blizzard?

its so obvious what has to be changed imho, and that is give vikings light armor. think about it a second. it would fix everything from metal being hardcountered singlehandedly by immortals to the much discussed 3 wargate+void ray strat.

my question is what the point of using the single target ability is when any given target is going to die in jsut about the same amount of time regardless of if u use it

a unit dying 20% faster is NOTHING. it's the same as the spell doing damage for 20% of the unit's health. would u use a spell on a unit if it did 20% of it's health in damage? no one would, because that would be a massive waste of time/efficiency.

Infestor
-Neural Parasite can now target Air units.

Didnt we have enough of Neural Parasite on Motherships already? Sure its balanced by the fact that no one builds the Mothership, but IMO its ridiculous to have a tier 2 unit take over a much more expensive tier 3 unit. The mind control spell in BW was on a rarely used and expensive unit, but Infestors have one of the best spells in the game already.

Phoenix
-Can now attack while moving.

If it makes the micro-junkies shut up about not having anything to do ... but other units could work with this "skill" and I wonder why they didnt add it to them and how long it will take to start the whining for Mutalisk moving shot (which will make the slow-turning Thor even more useless than it has become with this patch).

Thor
-Air damage changed from 8 (+4 Light) to 6 (+6 Light).
-250mm Strike Cannons energy cost increased from 100 to 150.

So now the Thor is supposed to suck against Brood Lords and other non-light air units? Bad decision.
Increasing the energy for the 250 mm ability to 150 means that Thors get really vulnerable to Feedback now, since they cant really spend the energy well. Reducing the max energy to 150 might have done the same while not increasing the vulnerability.
If you cant say what you're meaning, you can never mean what you're saying.

eh... did i miss something ?

all ppl say that toss got nerf alot but its only sentry who get really nerf. The collossus get the same amound of DPS ok it can't 1 shot ling but... you will probably got some zealots to hurt ling so colossus will kill faster with zealot in the mix

Btw, patch 12 note:

Fixed a bug that allowed phoenixes to shoot while moving.

Yep, they also claimed that the larva exploit was a bug when it clearly was 100% intentional.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Lots of interesting changes.

The corruption one is the only one I think is LOLWTF. The original building corruption really seemed to have some interesting potential. Now, think about using unit corruption on a big unit (200-300 hp). 20% of that is basically decreasing it's HP by 40-60. People will use it because there's no other way to spend the energy, but it's totally not interesting or exciting.


corruption doesn't reduce a units health by 20%.

It causes all damage against it to be increased by 20%


I know, I'm just trying to say that the effect of the corruption ability is like decreasing the HP of a big unit by 40-60 HP. Which is quite a lame ability with pretty much no potential for interesting use.
