Just thought this quote was a bit ironic in justifying a Zerg nerf. You're going to tell MUTALISK users that air units with short range clump naturally? No shit, yet we see magic box mutas used in almost every ZvT out there. | ||

I don't want freebies against my zerg opponents, and I don't want them having freebies against me. Current patch FG feels too powerful for zerg, PTR FG feels too underpowered for zerg. Can't you just meet somewhere in the middle and make it a stun/DOT with a slow cast? | ||

 Alltogether I like the patch, although the infestor nerf might have been uncalled for... | ||

The fact that blizzard even endorses a macro keyboard is saddening, along with the insanity of the FG change. | ||

And what beneficial purpose does it serve? I agree with this bit though... I JUST FOUND OUT about holding F for forcefield spamming. ...and then Blizzard took it away from me.. ... FUUUUUUUUUU!!!! | ||

Corruptors are direct counter to Phoenix Ugh, just stop with this corruptor talk. Corruptors don't "counter" pheonixes. If you fought head on, they would beat them for cost, yes. However, pheonixes are way faster, so you never have to engage! Hey, isn't that neat! Once you've built all those corruptors they're pretty much useless. If your opponent is absolutely retarded and goes collosi after you've built corruptors, then yes, you'll get to use them. If not, enjoy the 150/100 you've sunk in a paperweight. Pheonix openers are strong enough against zerg. This is not the way to buff Toss. | ||

Zerg doesn't have a backbone unit that can shoot up, yet we're supposed to prepare "just like other races" There's really no comparison here, Imagine if marines and stalkers could only hit ground, how would you prepare your anti-air? | ||

Just a goofy patch. the observer buff and scv repair nerf combined feel like a pretty big buff for P in TvP too want to see how this would lplay out once the patch hits | ||

As for the voidray buff, they now only need to be 3attack/1 armor up on a BC to 1v1 it without precharge, or else just 2/1 with charge. The removal of keyholding makes me very, very sad. How on earth are you going to make 40 zerglings late-game as zerg now? | ||

That's like the only way their land could feasibly stop a drop before it even starts. Now they either have to get hydras (LOL) or have to get mutas. Mutas are good, but limiting options is bad. A better idea would to be to give the spell a cast time like plague had in BW. God damn, I mean defilers were slow as shit and then on top of that it took like a full 2 seconds for them to cast the spell once they got within range to cast plague. Why can't fungal growth have a cast time and a cast animation? I don't want freebies against my zerg opponents, and I don't want them having freebies against me. Current patch FG feels too powerful for zerg, PTR FG feels too underpowered for zerg. Can't you just meet somewhere in the middle and make it a stun/DOT with a slow cast? Plague didn't have a cast time wtf. | ||

Nice patch but the number of balance changes is minimal.. I think the PTR idea is definitely a good one, perhaps the best thing about the patch! | ||
