I know I'm a total chobo but if you want to complain about SC2 being a 1a game then people need to continue to petition Blizzard to buff the armour of EVERY SINGLE UNIT and nerf the attack strength.
Even if it's only 10% changes - the current strength of the units, combined with their god awful health / armour / shield means that most huge battles are over so god damned m.f.n quickly that there really is no time for exceptional, high skill and exciting micro - even the top players don't always dance their units.
I know it's a War 3 thing but I really did respect dancing units out, mid battle healing units, etc - it's here in SC2 but fucking rare because the poor players are so busy doing other stuff that it's easier to just do a '1a' fight with a good unit mix and at best do some queued focus fire against the enemy using hard counter against hard counter :/
I've seen very few replays where I've just gone 'holy shit that was a sick move' :/

There's archons in SC2?

This is definitely a community patch!

They have been doing this to a ton of units with each patch (no protoss nerfs this time, but they got it a lot in the past). Actually allowing units to survive for more than 2 seconds should be pretty fun  . ^ QFT, totally agree. Hey, maybe now we'll actually be able to micro a few units so battles last longer than 12 seconds!!! I like the way DPS is going down en totale.
Also agree with this post.

Those balance-changes (not Patch15, but more or less in general) are so pointless IMHO.
Why not make changes that can't be done when the game is out? They'll be continuing to patch anyways once the game is out, but we will have to live with no highground-advantage, crappy Unit-control and overall broken Units....
Im truly unhappy and I will continue not to play, which is what I've done since patch 13... It's just so disappointing to see Blizzard making those IMHO unnecessary changes and not caring about the gamemechanics, that are just not as good as the fans expected, at least based on what I've heard and read, which is of course highly biased.

I'd say Vikings where the unit that needed nerfing, it's very mobile and with ravens it completely dominates air. I would nerf its speed to make it a little less mobile. The tank nerf... not so sure, terran late game was the problem, and this will probably effect early/mid-game mech play most..

i cant a-move into a ball of siege tanks.. they must be overpowered
So as has been said multiple times in this thread, it's ok if Terran can A-move into the other races but not the other way round?

Good patch, will try to use more reaper in early 2v2 now when I get T as random :o

Great going sir, you must be an excellent R player and as such completely unbiased.
Banelings and forcefields don't really force a T player to micro his army so he won't get completely obliverated. Also nevermind the fact that races should have unique units and tactics, it's not that big of deal anyway.

Its looking like up to this point noone has been placed in diamond, people with 17-2 records are still sitting in platinum. I'm curious to hear if anyone does get placed in diamond and what kind of record they had when they got there, just wondering if they possibly made it harder to get into ontop of not being able to be placed into it, which would be great. Or the glass is half empty view point is, they removed diamond altogether =/.

Thing is, siege tanks don't just A-move do they? they have to get in position and take time to siege up.

Guess reapers are the way to go early game esp vs zerg (but its such a bitch to micro  )

Since this is the place to discuss this I`ll bring it up:
What do you guys think of the new way the placements work? You apparently cannot be placed in Diamond any longer. This seems like yet another example of Blizzard listening to it`s community! Makes me think positive thoughts about the future of this game.

Oh that's a nice change! I wonder how many people were raging when they got 5-0 and ended up in platinum?

can't find a thread on this, but is the diamond league even around after this patch? everyone i know thats gone 5-0 is in platinum and there are people who are 20-2 records that havnt been put in diamond yet.
|
Tank nerf wtf... now they are even worse vs protoss. I guess it was to help TvZ balance but imo it'd be better to make roaches be 1.5 supply.
|
We're getting there. If they don't hit the soft spot in a month, hey , they're still working on Starcraft for 2 more years, it's not like we can't expect the blizzard installer to download new patches for the released game .
