I'm not sure that 7 pool in PvZ will be as imba as some people think... I mean, if you scout an early pool, then you 10gate and chrono your first zealot; won't it get out in plenty of time to defend this? And is doing that really *that* hard of a hit on your economy?
You'll worry less about what people think about you when you realize how seldom they do.

Battlecruisers are already worthless, and they're being nerfed? The only counter Terran has to bling and hydras is being removed? I hope you're happy zerg, now you can just roach+hydra and 1a2a3a to victory.

Also protoss are already horribly behind, and they have a huge increase in warp in time? How will they even compete now?


You must be a very very poor Terran player if bling/hydra is what is giving you problems.......

I would like to see Warp Prism's given 1 base armor, and the tank upgrade bonus switched from +3 +2 to +2+3, then I would be happy. Basically I just really want to be able to zealot bomb again.

This patch looks awesome

I wonder if early pools (8-10) would be ridiculously hard to beat now with the zealot nerf. 6 pools are still the same (use your probes), but 8-10 allow a more constant stream of zerglings since you have a better economy, and if you can't initially block which means your zealots get singled out, it might cause a lot of problems.

Yes they are giving that 5 seconds back on zealot build time! We had a short period where this change was made and it was totally cool. Siege tank nerf = yay and ultra nerf seems needed

edit: omg middle september. T.T

2gate FE opening will be so hard now like they were when the "miss patch" came out

You think this is being cautious? These are fairly dramatic changes. ZvT balance is going to swing significantly.

Would zealot bombs be more viable now? Tanks near the zealot would take 50 damage while the zealots itself could survive 4 hits, 35 damage each.


The warp prisim is waaay to fragile to make any kind of zealot bombs :<.

As a p player, i'm so afraid against 6 pool in pvz now..., i could hold a 6 pool with 12 gate with 1-2 seconds to spare, now it will be hell :<

Thank you Blizzard. I am happy!

Marauders also should've been redone, not exactly nerfed but fixed. There are many situations in game where they dominate no matter how sick is your micro.

Why didn't they just make siege tanks overkill like brood war? Make the attack a very fast projectile, so not only will the tanks overkill but speed zerglings could run through them? I mean, it's still a pleasant change, but it would be more skill based and provide more interesting gameplay that way I feel.


they can't, thats why.

In one the the many interviews a developer stated, that it's actually not an AI-thing with the overkill, it's in the engine, when units attack every unit attacks at a different time (just some ms difference) and because tanks hit instantly they cant overkill


Well, they could, they could easily just make a dummy projectile with 100 movespeed, it would take like two seconds on the editor.

Yeah. I like that Blizzard is being really cautious about everything.


lolwut? This cautious? What were you expecting? This?

I don't like the zealot change vs 6pool.

Yes seriously. 7 pool is going to be x10 more broken now than it was before. It was already hard as all hell to stop on Steppes without 10gating, now 10gate will be mandatory to be safe from lings. Hell, even then I don't know if you'll be able to get the zeal on time.

well, if you scout it, put a pylon to wall-off at your ramp and you'll get your zealot out in time, also it's okay to have to be pretty good to hold that off (it's definitely stop-able with probe-micro) since if you stop it the zerg player loses 99.9% of the time. I actually don't think you need to 10 gate either, just scout and completely block off your ramp with an extra pylon (even if this delays your zealot, if you place your pylon well, the player won't be able to attack it with more than 2 zerglings at a time. The other thing is that 10 gate is incredibly popular on that map now since you can 10 gate into pylon block and delay the expansion by quite a bit.

Just watch how one Zerg pro after the other will switch to Terran after they read about these balance changes. Simply ridiculous.

10gate isnt even that safe against a 6pool. i dont like the zealot change. i dont think 2 gate pushes were that strong in the first place.

i like the terran changes but PVT early game is still severely broken

they may nerf warp gates abit but nerfing zealot build time is crazy

any proxying can be defended by a player thru earlier scouting, they shouldnt take the strategy and metagame out just because some players scout late, nor should they nerf zealot build time because of it. just doesnt make sense.

There goes Blizzards wait and think strategy. The second someone wins a tournament with a new strategy that noone has figured out how to counter yet, the nerf it. Let people think first! (although I don't really use reapers myself, so it won't affect me.)

IdrA is doing the joker laugh somewhere in Korea.
Lee Jae Dong proved that a focus on mechanics and execution could solve problems in the StarCraft game strategy.

I think they should've done something else for the warpgates. Retain the cooldown, but do something like increasing in the warp time if the warp in spot is far away from the warpgate. I think this will make 4 warpgate all-ins a bit less attractive but not nerf the whole warpgate system in general.
