The widow mine priority seems good. I wonder if it's even intentional that it's the way it is now. The only thing in the episode I struggled to get my head around was theognis' objection to the mothership core. It's only a soft deflection for any attack after early/midgame and I never find that I can get much scouting done with it. | ||

Something like that combined with a reduction in voidray hp would probably do wonders for pvz without making the voidray a paperweight or devolving pvp back to colossi wars. Either way, they need a nerf. The widow mine priority seems good. I wonder if it's even intentional that it's the way it is now.

It allows the protoss to play super greedy early on which will propel them into a significant upgrade advantage later on. It's not that big of a deal if the protoss plays a standard/safe style like in WOL though. | ||

What would you say to changing the corruption ability on corrupters to some kind of AOE air only debuff, that cancels activated abilities when in the cloud, or simply something that debuffs some part of the units armor/range/damage/speed. This could pause abilities like void ray charge and medivac boost for short periods of time, Making it an active ability increases skill cap and adds more interesting positional elements to both large engagements and drops. | ||

I'm a casual, shitty gold player that stumbled on your podcast and now listen to it every week. Usually on my IPad as I'm falling to sleep. Nothing lulls me into unconsciousness more sweetly than the sweet sweet reverb of JP's voice making love to that microphone. Keep it up! | ||

I think throughout the show everyone agreed that mech really didn't work in any of the match ups at the moment I don't think there was much to add really. In TvT it's difficult due to medivac and in TvZ due to vipers. Against protoss it never survived removal of the warhound. And it's not a problem unique to terran. A lot of HotS changes are hard-countering compositions and strategies that existed in WoL while offering few new options. We better hope Blizzard starts patching things or the game will end up with only one 'right' way of playing each match-up. | ||

These balance talks aren't really about what you or I can or can't do, more about what pro can or can't do. | ||
