While I think Mutas will be more of a threat, I think people are blowing everything out of proportion. Roach timing pushes will still punish people who go for early Mutas, also it's not like Hydras are bad against Mutas. If people were forgetting, ZvZ in BW was only Mutaling/Scourge and NOTHING else. This matchup is just fine as it is. If anything, it allows more options than just roach vs. roach. Get over it people.

Actually spores counter phoenix just fine. For once Zerg have to deal with a mass of flying units with greater mobility and huge harassment power. Live with it.


you want us to put spore EVERY WHERE on the map ? this is not only the worker harras who make that broken
Just follow July Zerg and make corruptors. They shut down phoenixes reasonably well, and stop the transition into colossus.

In theory a full stack of corruptors can't kill a single phoenix. Speed, y'know. That's what annoys me at least, a good protoss harassing in the midgame had to be aware of infestors, thus actually play carefully when using them. Now he can just run in, kill a few drones and run out without a problem. I mean.. there should be some risk attached to every harassment strategy.

Then again, I would rather have annoying, invincible phoenix every now and then compared to ALWAYS facing mutas in ZvZ. It's going to suck so bad.

ZvZ and PvZ will come back to its BW days now as muta will gain a much more important range in ZvZ and Protoss will use their air superior to fight Zerg which I think both are very good change!!!.

OK so I have a legit source that told me the reason for this infestor fungal nerf was because they removed void ray's speed upgrade. If that's the case why can't they just instead make it so:

- Void Rays are now immune to movement-impairing effects.

(which is only fungal growth)




yes, but that makes to much sense for blizzard to do, they need to do crazy game breaking stuff

Also, stalemate condition is retarded. Should just be "If there is no income, production, or any units or buildings taking any damage." If you can't do that, it should be at least "no structures OR units destroyed." If units are still dying, very high chance it's not a stalemate.

I welcome the FG nerf for TvZ and ZvZ but with the Phoenix build time buff I'm petrified of PvZ. I can already see myself being forced to go hydras and spending enough time chasing them to be crapped on by collos.

Warning to protoss: 6pools everywhere.

Pheonix can be counter by corruptors easy. It'll change ZvZ match up since mass muta is no longer afraid of fungal growth. I don't use infestor that much anyway so don't really care.

How the fuck do you counter phoenix with corruptors? You do realize phoenix are a lot faster than corruptors? No one cares about not being able to kill phoenix head on, that's easy and only a stupid protoss would engage that way.

The problem is there's no way to deal with phoenix harass properly. There are ways you can limit the damage but in the end, assuming equal skill and high level, a protoss phoenix harass will always be cost effective which is silly.

People saying spores... really? Do you even play the game? They'll damage the shields and then the phoenixes fly away. Would need a lot of bloody spores to deal with them, and that's quite an investment.


Sounds like another flying unit in ZvT, but I can't seem to recall the name. I do know that T had to build turrets to defend against them, though. But still their health regenerated, so any good player would just snipe stuff and leave.


You realize that it takes like 6 minutes for a mutalisk to regen all its health right?

I think Blizzard recognizes that now zerg has an easier time with harass early on after the last patches, so they make it a little harder to defend harassment around the middle and later into the game. I could see that being their thought process with the fungal vs air nerf, allows a little more mid game harassment rather than only mid game bio pushes to keep the zerg from getting out of control. Just my interpretation of it. I wonder if it's too drastic a change though, but I'm sure they put more thought behind it than people give them credit for.

-- Infestor

Fungal Growth no longer affects air units.

Please god say it isn't so

This is a nightmare come true. How do we hold them Mutalisks still so our hydras can shoot them in ZvZ?

How do we stop them phoenix from flying everywhere!!?

I hope this doesnt get live. So the race with worst Antiair is losing FG on air units+protoss build time reduced. And the people from blizzard didn't watch the GSl lately. All TvZ are 2rax+scv all-in, and they reduce bunker build time? I need that someone explain this to me because i dont know how they can get to that idea and actually think that is a good way to fix something (don't even know what are they trying to fix).


Zerg has the worst anti-air? Really, you say that with a straight face?

They need to change fungal back!!

Just don't have them binded by fungal, but take the damage for all flying units.

Ground units get binded to the ground. Have you guys ever seen sc1 ZvZ where both players go mass mutalisk/devours????

That's when it gets tense with plague and it makes the game really exciting to watch someone pull a plague on a large group of mutas.

Same thing here, fungal should be similar to plague but less damage for air units... Commmon. This is like... making psionic storm not affect flying units... it makes the game more bland.

YES!!! NO high templar changes!!! thanks blizz

didnt see anything about multiple people being able to watch a replay though, which is kind of upsetting...unless i missed it??

changes to voidray i think are good, thats what voidray was designed to do since alpha stages of beta, and wondering how much the phoenixes are going to chance pvz and pvt, cant wait to see.

Pretty sure that patch is adding the public test because when my blizzard updater went I saw a file "writing public test" before it changed to another file.
