If you wanted to nerf 6 pools then the best option would be to increase the starting number of workers to 8 or so. That way, the earliest Zerg could pool would be on 8, and build orders would be unchanged. But there is no need to nerf the 6 pool, its already pretty terrible as it is. Its only viable against protoss on four player maps praying they don't scout you first.

At Blizzcon they mentioned it in a Q+A. Stimmed marines are too effective (or effective throughout too much of the game) versus their cost.

Nothing has happened to stim or 6 pooling. That guy was saying he thinks something SHOULD happen to them. And he's a nimrod.

Negative.

No ladder resets this patch have even been hinted at.

Hey retarded. Don't call me names when I'm significantly more experienced at this game and smarter than you. Maybe try to take the ideas in context before you dismiss them outright.

Stim nerf refers to all levels. It's broken. Movement speed either needs to be reduced, or marauders need a slower attack rate or both. The kitability of mm at the highest level is simply broken and has no counter in the early game. It dominates everything.

Zerg 6 pooling was an example which is normally unlikely, but I know very few of you have played high level team games, mainly 2v2, because you would know that 8 pool in conjunction with marines or hellions from your partner is nearly an unstoppable build for Zerg and Protoss to deal with, which is why it will be nerfed, just like Terran Rax was nerfed. The change has almost no impact to legit 1v1 games, and only nerfs cheese, while making macro games more viable, at least in PvZ.

So again, if you guys want to be jugdemental assholes because you have a different opinion, just shut the hell up. Thanks.

Patch 1.2.0 was just released in SEA. We aren't allowed to log in yet due to "scheduled maintenance" until 2pm AEST (+10), but it has definitely been released. The patch notes are still the ones for 1.1.3 / Tools Update, but the version number inside the SC2 Program itself has been updated to 1.2.0.

So much offtopic responses in this thread...

I am not too good with Time Zones, 2PM AEST means in 2 or 3 hours, right ?

I hope we'll be able to get some good info about Master League, how much games a player needs to get into this league, or if it will only needs 1 game after patch to promote an actual very high MMR player.

How did this turn into a balance thread? Can we please just get along for the time being. If not, could you please move your petty squabbling to Strategy thread ?
Is it up on NA yet?

and blizzard SHOULD NOT be balancing the game around "top level 2v2" this game's prime focus is 1v1. and removing the option of cheese IS NOT the way to balance the game (i still believe the supply before rax change was stupid)
