To be supply blocked? If Protoss loses all their pylons, they can't build a gateway either. Not that it matters at all. | ||

It isn't as if they wont still be ungodly when fully charged. I'm so glad that they removed the energy from corruptors / thors. There's no such thing as a charge level 3. There are only 2 levels. | ||

If you just played smarter and made good decisions, it would have been an easy win like you say. So its a complete necessity to have vikings to pursue any sort of push vs voids? I did have options available how ever i felt an expansion would have been a mistake. I just wiped out all of his gate units. and was on 3 raxes at that time with stim and combat shield. Teching would take awhile and given my opponent ample time to produce a large amount of gateways giving the expansion. My option was to take advantage of the fact his expansion had just finished and that he just lost his gate units and was only on 3 production facilities. Do you understand my logic now? I can understand your point of view. But are my options really limited to teching-expanding? and god forbid i played someone good who would abuse the charge and constantly harass me with pylon charge up while i did this. Also. I suppose i underestimated a unit that is excellent at harass is also more then excellent at defense. | ||

Buildings -Barracks requirement changed from Command Center to Supply Depot. Reaper -Nitro Packs speed upgrade now has a Factory Requirement. Hopefully expansions will just remove Reapers from the game so they can stop warping Terran's tech tree to accommodate a poorly designed unit >__> | ||

VR are now so cost ineffective it's not even funny. The only reason I see to touch the stargate branch now is for luls when you got 3k minerals banked and wanna make a mothership. | ||

We've already dealt with Reapers. They've already been nerfed, and the community seems to have figured out how to deal with them weeks ago. I do not understand why things get "double nerfed" like this after the problem has already been solved. First they increased Reaper build times; now they're delaying upgrades, improving counter units, and making buildings stronger (not specifically for Reapers but I'm sure they were in mind too). And now depot before Rax? Come on... where's the fun in that? It's not a huge deal but really, it just removes some creative play. And VRs. What the hell? I can't recall the last time I saw them being used in any OP way. Makes me wonder who they're catering to. Is it the pro-gamers or the sub-platinum league casuals? The reaper nerf was most definitely for team games. PP can now stand a chance against ZT. | ||

Phoenixes are amazing and were already very frequently used without getting any VRs. | ||

They had such difficult to overcome weaknesses against very basic and common units, Marines Hydras and Stalkers. Marines and Hydras in numbers at like 1/4 or 1/3 the cost of the Void Rays could fend off Void Rays but that wasn't enough? Vikings totally owned Void Rays before they got speed upgrade and now they own them even when the Void Rays get speed upgrade. Stalkers can probably approach charged up Void Rays now too since that reduction in damage against armored is so huge. And of course Protoss keeps getting worse against air... brood lords, corruptors and battlecruisers are now much more difficult to deal with.
