This really isn't going to rape zerg...just make mass roach slightly weaker.

Although it wasn't really over powered before...

I'll need to play a lot of new patch games before I can really comment, but it doesn't seem to ridiculous.

I was extremely excited about this game, but patch after patch it seems that blizzard just isn't hearing what the community is saying. They are also making massive changes VERY late in beta. Release is a little over 2 months away and we are getting changes like Roach going to 2 food?

If roach are going to be 2 food then they need the 2 armor back that they previously had. I don't really understand how blizzard can throw out such a huge nerf and offer absolutely 0 in return.

Not to mention the fact that zerg still has only 9 combat units where as the other races have far more. By absolutely slamming the roach zerg is blown an incredible blow to early game as well as any late game viability as a meat-shield of sorts.

As it was, roach hydra was arguably too versatile and potentially too easy to execute.


waaa waaa waaa...
you realize zerg has 9 combat units? exactly how much diversity do you expect?

Hey dude, you forgot the infested terran.

biggest ground units are now archon (*sigh*) , colossus and ultralisk with 1.00 unit radius

does not compute...



Ultralisk buffs are coming, perhaps unit size is one of them.

Wow, what an indirect marauder nerf!

Seriously guys, stop whining; it's not the end just because roaches are at 2 food now. I, for one, think that this is a positive change because roaches are boring and I'm looking forward to seeing them used less.
Your resistance only serves to make my carapace harder.

wow, some zergs will have to do more than make 200 roaches to win games, might even have to unit mix. This encourages zergs to use their tech switching versatility to win games as opposed to overwhelming with sheer numbers of roaches.

Great, the race supposed to be all about overwhelming numbers will now have smaller armies than Terran.


My bad I forgot zerglings now cost 2 supply.

Because massing zerglings instead of massing roaches is just soooooooooo much better.


To be fair i have seen many Zergs use Zerglings to great extent, i'm not sure why they're so underestimated by most players.


I don't know why ppl whine about Zlings so much as well, IMHO, Speedlings is the scariest Zerg-Unit besides Broodlords. Maybe give them a better T3-Upgrade, but Speedlings in large Numbers can just rip through any Army that does not have heavy AoE-Units.

Try to fight with Any Terran ground-force without Hellions or Tanks against Mass-Speedlings - NIGHTMARE! ^^'
Also, if they catch you out of position with your tanks, they'll just rape you.

I try not to go Hellions in TvZ, just to try out some new builds and with Mass-Marines Speedlings are sooo scary, until your siegetanks get out and even then you have to be very cautious when moving out to not get counterattacked or backstabbed when the Tanks aren't sieged yet.

Just like I don't use Marauders as Terran (which works fine for me), I don't think going Roaches is that necessary as Zerg. I just think that Roaches now aren't as good anymore obviously, but they don't have a clear role in the game, so basically, you have no reason to build them anymore, right? ^^'


except u CAN GET hellions which are quite strong with their range buff. so no point in ur argument

I know the roach nerf sucks but i think it was necessary, in the meta game you can wipe an entire zerg army and they can easily re mass roaches even with a gas shortage


But they can still do this...

This is such a kick in the face on Zerg, huge nerf on Roaches. Not needed at all IMO

Also, forge nerf?! WHAT THE EFF??

Worst patch so far, and i was pretty positive about the patches so far.


completely agreed...

Why was this closed? At least copypaste Blizz's thoughts on the patch into the OP of this thread.
