This makes 250mm cannon pretty useless, not really sure how i'm gonna counter mass ultras now, I guess mass banshees?



Kite?

Day[9] daily episode 152 demonstrates why that Ultra buff Nerf was necessary imo.


250mm makes you stationary, so kiting's not really an option. So yes, it will still kill ultras but the ultras can attack while you're using it, not sure which would win in say a 3v3 fight between the two. And just because in the daily the thors crushed the ultras doesn't mean that the thors were uncounterable (yes i know that's a ridiculous word I just can't think of a better one right now), it just means that mass thors are a counter to mass ultra that the zerg player wasn't prepared for.

In Starcraft: Brood War.

Give it up already, everyone else has figured out that shoving lurkers back in now would unbalance everything.

Infestor

Frenzy spell removed.
Infested Terran spell added.

KILL THIS STUPID UNIT ALREADY.

it's really shocking that theyre moving this ability. again. without changes, back to the infestor. I'm guessing it's cus they wanted to fill the void that the removal of Frenzy created

I know, he was obviously wrong, just like your spelling of the word source

Generally pleased with these patch notes, would have been nice to have seen some new maps though, and changes to the Carrier (a reduced build time and cost perhaps?) and Mothership. There is plenty of time for all that though, I just can't wait for the servers to come back up now.

Your units won't automatically engage enemy units on the way to the rally point.

I don't know if I like the Zerg change. I mean, Frenzy being removed makes sense since it was a stupid idea in the first place, but making one unit in the game immune to mind control and stun? Kind of weird.

I think they should have just kept frenzy and made it give units a 50% speed boost. Imagine Ultralisks that outrun speedlings :-). Would give Ultras a solid role and frenzy a very useful abillity.


Ultralisks should also have an upgrade to grow wings and fly over cliffs and canyons. Ultralisks faster than speedlings would not be overpowered at all.

In the past, when you spawned units they would act as if you had A-Moved while moving to their location. This means that they would wander and attack after anything they crossed, so let's say you ran across a scouting SCV, they would chase it down forever.

The new change makes it so rally is M-move, which means they will move and ignore anything seen, being attacked, etc.

Honestly, I prefer this change, you can always A-move yourself if you need to. This causes much fewer "Where's Waldo the Ultralisk?" problems which I ran into every once in a while.

When units are produced out of buildings instead of attack-moving to the rally point they just move. It's good. There was a game I lost b/c a protoss player cannon rushed me and while i stopped him from advancing with creep half the units I produced ran into his cannons without support and died.
An ignorant person makes a mistake. A stupid person makes it again.

is it just me, or do a lot of those achievements (if they're real) reference tf2?
and does 250 mm cannon really have much use now? the stun capability was useful for stopping large/massive units, but as the colossus outranges, and enemy thors have the same range, i don't see much point in it now. perhaps just immortals =P
It still does 500 damage at 83.333 dps (somewhat below twice the dps of the next biggest single target dps dealer--the ultralisk vs armored).

Probably you need to buffer armored units with hellions and let your thors whack on them. 15 damage per swipe isn't too much, and the splash is only 5 damage per swipe. So your 90 health hellions, thanks to their rather large unit radius (for their cost), are a great option.


the animation takes 2 secs for it to bear it's cannons, 6 secs to shoot, and 2 secs to put them away. A total of 10 secs for the animation / ability. That's 500 / 10 = 50 DPS.

A thor does just a little less without the need for getting the 250mm upgrade. It's good for avoiding armor though.

It's a big hulking beast. Makes perfect sense to me. At least the immune to stun part.
