That quote about the ultralisk however is from Blizzard themselves - they specifically mentioned some changes and that was included I thought. So that one is real or very close to it. | ||

the mule change is good but how can a protoss player spend his energy when he is at 100 for example when cb has a cd of 20? | ||

I really hope this is real, though the thor buff doesnt make really sense it does. you can get rid of the energy easier now so thors don't get raped by feedback anymore On September 16 2010 18:51 hijt wrote: as a zerg player: the mule change is good but how can a protoss player spend his energy when he is at 100 for example when cb has a cd of 20? don't get to 100 maybe :o | ||

So now you really 'lose' a mule, and if the units never come, you have 50 extra energy to scan in the future. But yes, if this is true overall it's a "nerf" to CC&Nexus if you don't use them properly, and you get really punished if you don't use it properly together with losing "some" functionality in some way The cooldown is such that you recover about half of the mule's energy cost during the cooldown so you can still catch up . | ||

Same argument during alpha and beta about control group buildings etc. I don't see anybody asking for the removal of that now, No, you don't see any terran players asking for the removal of that now. | ||

If the mule and chrono boost changes are real, I'll be damned. That's really bring the bar of playing Terran and Protoss up, marco would be much more intense now. | ||

So yeah, chronoboost cooldown why not but nexus needs 1 or 2 abilities to be on par with T/Z if that's the case.. | ||

Chrono boost was pretty damn near essential in any protoss match up simply because of the time it takes to make units (Warpgates excluded obviously). A carrier is 120 second build time, which is 30 seconds more then a battle cruiser, and I think many people would argue that a battle cruiser is a stronger unit. Protoss build time was turned reasonable by Chronoboost and Warpgates (Maybe too reasonable, I'm down for increasing the cooldown of warpgates) Things just build really friggen fast for Zerg and Terran. I like a lot of the zerg changes, the ovie speed may be too much because 2.0 or whatever speed is about as fast as a Zealot with speed, which is pretty damn fast. | ||

I know because I move it around to make sure it's over my hatch every game =o | ||

Warning this was leaked on US forums after 20min blue post deleted thread this means it must be legit and it means US blue post are more active than EU am i surpised? no this just means this thread will stay alive longer wait... are you saying its legit because they deleted it? pretty sure they'd delete fake bullshit equally as fast very skilled troll is skilled to write this patch but not skilled enough as i question a lot of these bugs - Fixed a bug where Changelings morphed slower while coming into range of enemy units than when dropped from an Overseer over enemy units i question the existence of this bug as well. sounds reasonable though if youve ever sent a changeling into instant death because of an unseen tank or an unseen high ground unit killing it before it morphs - Fixed a bug where Larva would sometimes accidently die by walking off cliffs. not only do i question the existence of this bug, but i also question the spelling ability of the troll who wrote this. and i dont think they would use the word "walking" when referring to larva | ||

Mule cooldown is obviously a hugely needed change because of the "spam 5 mules in a row on a gold expo and get 1949219429 minerals in 10 sec" but what would a coolodown on chronoboost exactly achieve ? Seems to me it would make the ability much less interesting since it would drastically reduces the number of ways to use it. Chronoboost isn't a pure macro mechanic like Mules/Spawn larvae that you want do everytime you can. And another thing that bother me is that terrans and zerg can use their energy for something else (scan / supply / creep tumor / transfu) if they somehow suck with the mule/larva cooldown while a protoss cannot. So yeah, chronoboost cooldown why not but nexus needs 1 or 2 abilities to be on par with T/Z if that's the case.. During the 20 seconds you regain about 10 energy so you can still spend it all, just gradually... so many people don't get this x_X | ||
