Ultralisk buffs... yay, 110 saved on getting ultras out is pretty huge, not to mention the resource cost. +50 hp probably isn't enough, but it's a start. | ||

Even though I play T, the Viking nerf isn't much - therefore no complaints. | ||

Thanks Blizzard for an amazing job well done, as always. -_- Considering they took the ultralisk in the direction that TL has been wanting it to be in, I think blizzard did a pretty good job. | ||

but this patch was mainly geared for tvz imo to deal with mech better. We'll see if it works! | ||

I believe it is unupgraded off-creep ling speed, for instance. So yeah they found a number that worked and it happens to be 4 decimals long, haha | ||

 Blizzard are definitely not capable of repairing their mistakes, corruptor infestor and overseer NEED new ability, not just useless minor changes. But ultralisk changes go into the good direction for once, even if im pretty sure it won't be enough to make them playable, maybe in patch 15 ? | ||

Terran have so many options to win in the early game, Protoss then have the counter to easily win the mid game without effort and it's nearly impossible to see late game cause it never reaches this point unless both just turtle. | ||

Overlord/Overseer Pneumatized Carapace cost increased from 50/50 to 100/100. Makes me a little sad, I liked fast Overlord speed... | ||

Does Blizzard really need accuracy to 4 decimal places? 61/64 = 0.953125 edit: the technical reason why we need a power of 2: + Show Spoiler + To be more specific, 2.95 does not have an exact representation in finite precision floating point arithmetic because the number is binary when in the computer. If the denominator is a power of 2, however, the number can be represented exactly. You'll accumulate roundoff error over time because you are adding 2.95+error to itself every timestep. It's probably not a big deal; most likely it would just give your hydralisk has an unnoticeably small random variation in speed, but it might lead to weird collision detection bugs so it's best to just remove the ambiguity and work in powers of 2. Real-world example of when counting time in a base-10 increment instead of a base-2 increment caused roundoff error that made a Patriot Missile system fail during the Gulf War: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/RoundoffError.html | ||
