Blizzard doesn't have the luxury of quickly changing a lot as just a few badly thought through changes could severely imbalance the game. Yes I can tell you, only thing this will change is that people will stop going 2 stargates phoenix against Zerg and will now only build 1, that's it. On another note, not so good players will be able to defeat 1 thor push more easily. And people will stop abusing that stupid canon rush against Zerg.. 3/4 of the high level games will keep being either cheese or camping fest into A+move. | ||

People will still abuse cannon rush against Zerg. You can still do pylon block, and its not that much harder. I lost to it on the PTR first time it was tried against me, even pooling first. | ||

So do we have any patch notes yet? o_o; Patch notes weren't updated at the time I patched my client. Probably won't be for a while, knowing Blizzard's record with these things.  | ||

Having sick mechanics and awareness hardly exempts you from the basic omniprevelent human flaw of subconsciously desperately trying to find a different reason than your own failure for a loss. Pro zerg players say zerg is up, pro terrans say the same of terran, pro protoss players the same of protoss.please refrain from balance talk and write only the stuff you managed to pull out of the patch. like chat channels and 35 second phoenix. leave the balance for the progamers. Leave balance debate to random players I'd say. | ||

You're an idiot if you expect mega changes every month that will change how the game is played. The game is fine as it is now, and 3/4 of the game is not cheese or camping fest, where they hell did you get that from. Brood War was fine tuned the same way. I mean, look at how imba people were saying PvT were, there were no changes and now Protoss has a higher winning % against T in GSL3. These small changes are absolutely better than huge changes that MAY or MAY NOT work. | ||

Yet, they got nerfed. 6 pool is broken in team games, not in solo. Yes Blizzard officially said, and have made changes to balance team games. Stim is for all levels. I didn't see anyone disagree with that. Edit - by 6 pool i mean pooling before first OL. Doesn't have to be 6. 8-9 pools are far more effective but bring up the same problem. | ||
