The 1 marine + 2 marauder + 1 reaper push from 1 barracks. You already have barely enough time to get out the zealot and stalker, and have to pull probes to hold it off, so now it'll be even harder to hold. At least we know this isn't a complete set of notes, so there's still hope. | ||

The BC nerf was definitely needed, the only real counter was with air units. Zealot change was very unexpected though. Not sure how that will play out. Reaper/Bunker changes seem good, I'd really have liked a change to make salvage only return 80-90% of the cost though. Just seems dumb making them essentially free. | ||

Ultras base attack did around the same dps as the ram attack, but also has a 33% splash at a range of 2. So, now the ultra will be doing a little less dps against the pf, but it'll also be hitting some scvs most of the time.Ok, so now ultralisk without ram, how zerg will be taking down planetary fortresses? | ||

Do tanks deal full splash to zergling swarms? that value seems very... precise | ||

Zerglings and Hydras will be more viable against Tanks now I guess. Lings will no longer get one shot until tanks are upgraded and Hydras will be able to tank muchos hits. Guess this makes it important that you cover your tank line with blue flame Hellions. | ||

Zealot change seems a little unnecessary, warpgate was necessary but seriously, 38 seconds for a zealot seems kind of ridiculous if you think about it, even in smaller maps, as zerg I don't find a 2 gate push hard at all to fend off. Also thank god for the desert oasis change, although now Terrans will have a humungous choke for spamming tanks on, not that it matters now they're nerfed . wtb cliff nerf patch. | ||

Given the siege tank nerf, the ultra damage nerf is appropriate; they tore through ground armored units just a little too well. | ||

Indeed. Going from 2-shotting hydras to 3-shotting hydras is a pretty significant difference. | ||

I'm zerg and never really had that big of a problem stoping zealot rushs. Hell I dont see pro matchs where protoss players are winning massive amounts of games with proxy zealot rushs too. I can't say I understand that change to much. The siege tank change seems cool. Maybe now zerglings and zealots could be useful vs them. I like most of the other changes as well from the look of things. Blizzard gives a rats arse as even silver league players are customers. Yeah, I don't agree with it. But they want low level players to buy the following expansions as well, not just the competitive ones. Similar to the Forge change, proxy cannon rushes wasn't really a problem below platinum. | ||
