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.

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. | ||

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. | ||

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 | ||
