Rax requiring depot and void rays' nerf 2 of the most stupid decisions IMO. Nitro packs isn't too smart either, now we will see reapers ONLY as a cheese play -.-"

Love removing energy from Corr. and Thor

Feedback just got a lot less useful... And its not like they made 250mm Strike Cannons or Coruption anymore effective then they already were. Seems like a toss nerf in disguise.

Mass Thor+EMP vs P could be a little bit more viable now. I'm not sure if Reaper builds will go away. Hellion+Reaper is something no ones ever tried before.

Probably because they are countered hard by stalkers...?

i think protoss are hit the hardest No more void ray timing push with charged pylon. No more feedbacking thors and corruptors. Stalkers won't be able to abuse roaches anymore.

Terran is also hit quite hard although the vr nerf should be welcomed especially with so many terrans losing to vr pushes recently. Not sure if the medivac nerf will make any difference. The number difference seems really small. Marauder will take longer to snipe buildings as well.

Zerg should be happy with this.

Wow, this is a pretty big list of changes.

Void Rays will work way differently now.

Supply Depots take 1 more Baneling to bust.

Reapers totally slaughtered, but everybody knew about that already.

Like the Thor and Corrupter changes. 250mm cannons may get more use now.

why the void rays change though? I really would love to see a carrier buff to make protoss stargate tech a more viable route when compared to templar / robotics

-Fixed an issue that would cause Larvae to spawn and be hidden behind Zerg eggs.

Thank you! And nice being able to use corruptors vs P without risk of instagivving due to feedback. Their ability is even more stupid now though, 45 sec cooldown damage debuff, uh?

Oh and I guess I'll never see void rays again, not that they were that good to begin with. Kind of feels like Blizz would rather overnerf than remove, like the reaper. The speed upgrade is useless now.

Void Rays got trashed, also harder to charge them up since the initial damage is higher, they kill things quicker before full charge.

So Terran drops got slightly nerfed in terms of effectiveness? Thank God! Although decreasing Marauder DPS against building would have been a far simpler solution.

As much as I hate Void Rays (despite playing Protoss), a 20% (or 36% against Armored) DPS nerf and a nerf to the already expensive (due to requiring Fleet Beacon) speed upgrade is brutal. I guess Void Rays are, like Reapers, prime candidates for a redesign in the future. Their roles currently suck badly.
