Something else which is VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT you now need to log in to Battle.net in order to use the offline Starcraft 2 editor. Meaning blizzard now has a way to mandate validation for offline services. which is one HUGE step towards LAN capabilities, and it also removes their only real excuse for not having LAN. Hm, that's an interesting way to look at it - I initially assumed it was because they considered the map editor less important so it didn't matter as much if the auth for that was cracked.
Sounds likes it just a way to track who actually makes the games... eg embed account info from your battle.net account into the editor silently and then embedding all of that into every map you make so they can track it back.

This is the worst patch ever no more mass overseer into mass infested terran drop in ffa. 
Well it was fun while it lasted.

Thats may be because you were a good brood war player and got used to that mentality. I was only ever c- in Brood war and Move Rally was annoying as hell it was very hard for me to micro since my micro was not 150+ apm . In SC2 I rally outside my base all the time, it was alot easier with Attack Move and I've always been a top Platinum/Diamond player in SC2. This change will no doubt make it harder for me, but I think it helps the game overall and so I like it. started playing BW when beta went down. I played Civ 4 as my strategy game before this. (as well as Age of mythology Titans back in the day.) But yeah this chance makes it easier for me.
I feel that if you dont have high micro, you may find yourself losing some units that you could have not lost otherwise.

I already miss mass overseers!!

Infestor
Frenzy spell removed.
Infested Terran spell added.
I'm glad they're not afraid to just scrap a latest change. Ridiculously happy about that actually =) Although adding infested terran back to the infestor with alternatives being plagu and mind control is kinda silly.
Oh, ofc the move rally point, awesome, now... mbs. (jk, I like mbs =])

Im dissapointed that there are barely any changes in this patch. I thought blizzard was gonna have a bunch of crap due to their long downtime.

It's hardly what I would consider a finished product.
Zerg still doesn't seem zerglike and the only reason infested terran was even used all of a sudden is because the overseer didn't really have any other use. Now you remove Frenzy (which no one used) and added Infested Terran (which no one will use)
Why? What's the point? Just remove both spells.

Inmune to Stun FTW! Finally massive Thors vs Ultra battles will be epic! :D

yea I'd rather have both removed than either be in the game at this point lol.
i actually KINDA liked the idea of IT on the overseer. it was still awful but I liked where they were going (making the overseer a harass caster and being able to drop some shitty unit somewhere to maybe fuck something up, like kill an SCV making a supply depot or something) and I hoped they would just change the model for the IT to something else and be done with it. it worked on the overseer beucase it's other 2 spells didnt overlap with it at ALL and I could actually see instances of having an overseer floating around and doing stuff with it.
moving the IT back to the infestor is SOOOOOOO stupid. i've lost all faith in the blizzard design team ever making a smart patch change again. and i highly doubt the expansions will have any better changes at this point.

Yeah, Overlords dropping Infested Terrans made no sense at all. I guess if they really want to keep it in the game, they just give it to the Infestor :T

This was also cool to watch - eg: the ultra stops, frozen by the stun, then a frenzy hits it, and it immediately comes back alive. Just because people didn't try to learn how to use frenzy doesn't make it useless, it had so many applications, that the game kinda feels incomplete without it..

I like the ultralisk change... While I suppose it's technically a nerf to the ultralisk to remove frenzy, I never actually saw anyone use it anyway. And this makes ultras a lot more useful late-game against terran
