Besides that, fungaling medivacs before they unload their cargo (or to prevent them from getting away) in your drone line was pretty darn useful, and seen a lot. What the hell are ghosts for? There is always a counter balance unit. | ||

Idk, maybe they learned with the experience? ^^ But yeah, I'm pretty glad they're changing back the fungal growth to what it is right now, even though I don't play zerg... | ||

the fungal growth changes were kinda really awkward, it felt really great to be able to build phoenixes but now i wont bother with phoenixes much now. as people i know that play zerg just burrow an infestor and try to get my phoenixes close to it and just take them all down. was the lamest stuff ever. ill just go back to mass blink stalker to stop muta =/ | ||

And terran has the easiest macro regardless. Both of these things still hold true after the change. I think the change was reverted because zerg spams enough as is. | ||

You also have a lower observer cost and, all things considered, you should be used to making a handful of observers each game in the first place. Lawd knows why you would ONLY have phoenixes and no ground support.

Awww shit, you mean they aren't nerfing zerg and they're leaving it... the same!? Clearly, it's because of the QQing and not the fact that FG is relatively underused, and that putting this in the patch notes would draw attention to a useful spell.

Even in Broodwar (the most mechanically challenging game ever made) you could morph up to 12 lurkers or 12 guardians with 1 key press. I've played about 40 games on the PTR, and I can attest that it drastically increases the amount of time you spend making units, and Zerg is already the most APM intensive race by far. It mostly affects heavy zergling builds, or late game trying to re-build your army after getting roflstomped since zerg 200/200 is utterly pathetic. | ||

I just cant stand that so many people are QQing after they see a achange beeing reverted that was never in the game. Most of the people out there think these changes have been a really bad idea. cutting buildtime on bunkers is kinda odd, after blizzard changed it to make bunker pushes harder (which are live still strong). FG hitting only ground was so confusing, no one did really get why Blizzard did that, since no one was really qqing about it. The thing with holding down a key to chainbuild one unit... acutally I just know since 1-2 month about it, I wouldnt feel that hard nerfed as Zerg | ||
