All of the 'balance' changes are fucking ludicrious, tbh. Hope the channels are worth the game being slightly shittier. lol.. funny.. I was thinking "I like how every patch only changes P and Z balance and ignores nerfing terran" | ||

Now the trend towards a late game mech transition in TvP is effectively impossible. | ||

But seeing how the Zerg can spam 10 mutas simultaneously, it makes sense for them to be weaker against the same number of phoenixes because it takes much longer for a Protoss to achieve the same number and if he loses those, he has no chance of recovering in the units number. | ||

Considering the fact that most balance changes can't be fully ironed out and understood for at least a week or so, it makes you come off as quite childish. It's not like these are two minor changes where you have to have months of intense testing in order to get a general idea of what it's going to do here. I'm far from the only one with this opinion clearly. Plus I obviously understand that community testing will hopefully prove this and be a big part of this, hence why I said it. Edit: Although to be fair, the larva thing isn't a major change, just going to be a major annoyance and make it a little less faster to get out a lot of units. Which does at least have the potential to really break shit, although time will tell on this one I guess. | ||

Then don't engage them away from the rest of your army? It's not like he can chase down your phoenixes. Mutalisks cost the same amount of gas as a phoenix to begin with, both races are ultimately resource limited rather than production limited. | ||

Worker NOCLIP has been fixed? Will be interesting to see how much more disruptive a couple of lings will be when they can act like a wall while they nomnomnom. A minor minor consideration, obviously, but food for thought I guess. | ||
