and i really dont like that these buffs they change the role of the infestor from support to more of a damage caster. I dont like that infestors might become an absolute must in every mu. Imo zerg needs more of a general buff then these niche changes, and im not talking about making zerglings do 10 damage attack or anything but something like as someone said some posts ago, a viable way of scouting before lair. | ||

It bothers me to see Zerg players pony up for mass banelings + speed or mass hydras + range without a single infestor on the field... | ||

They turned bunny hopping into a staple of the Quake series. In BW, there were so many things that weren't intended but were made into vital skills for high level play. I think Blizzard needs to calm down on the intervening and just let things play out on their own, except in the case of super imba things like the old beta 2 armor 1 supply roaches. Cauz archon toilet weren't super imba maybe ?... Also you can't compare the 2 games. Bunny hop and being imbalanced is 2 differents things, because for the bunny hop everyone could do it, whereas the archon toilet only P can do it. Seems unfair right ? No. | ||

Well in zvz you can go with hydras instead of infestors on 2 base. In zvt i open infestor after lair, many prefer the muta opening, sure many might transition into infestor when on 3 or 4 base but far from everyone do. And right now in zvp infestors are rare, i'm kinda trying to work them in but if you skip hydras vs mass gate or the incontrol style, mass gate with just a few colossi you're kinda vulnerable, imo. | ||

Also, some buffs for zerg. This patch will improve the overall balance. Its a small step, though. But thats how blizzard is doing it: several small steps instead of a huge one, that could go in the wrong direction. Oh, and the "macro timer"-thingy helps zergs the most, obviously. So thats basically a zerg buff, even though every race gets it. Also, epic fail how some of you protoss thought that the archon toilet was balanced. And plz dont argue with "but its rarely seen, super duper lategame tech AND costs a lot of ressources". Something that allows you to destroy a 200/200 army without any losses and without any chance for your opponent to avoid it, is op. Period. | ||

This means the patch will be TESTED before it is released, and changes can be made to it if the patch notes are bad. That is why these patch notes ca be completely outrageous. lol you dont know Blizzard for a long time or? they just dont give a damn about patching/fixing a patch.......the Patch will hit the live servers just with these patchnotes.Nothing will be changed.Ill bet my entire house on that....... No,i'am not mad it's always like that.look at WoW........one fucked up balance patch after another. | ||

Thats being unreasonable, remember when they decreased the bunker build time, at a time when bunker rushes were a lot more common. And when there was a huge outcry about the stupidity of it the change didnt make it past the ptr. They arent all that bad. dont know about WoW though...never really played it. | ||

The stun duration got cut in half. but it does the same amount of damage over 4 seconds instead of 8, so imagine u got stormed but instead of doing 80 damage over 8 seconds it did 80 damage over 4 seconds, Things would die twice as fast On February 27 2011 20:49 Unfeared wrote: Broodlord morph cost increased to 250/250 Overseer morph increased to 150/100 blizzard why u no tell ??//!?

If you purposely run your units into a vortex when you see a Protoss army that includes High Templars or Archons you deserve to lose those units. It's like setting your way points to an enemy cannon line. Why would you do that? You do know the Vortex can be positioned wherever the Protoss wants, i.e. he can put the Vortex ON half of your army and suck it in without you being able to do anything about it. Zzz | ||

Mature. Go back to drinking kool aid. The mothership was imbalanced, that nerf is easily agreable, but not the amulet one. Even if it was stronger than it should, and even that is open for discussin, because some other factor could be changed - either in P or T - to balance out the perceived imbalance of P late game, removing it is in no way a good solution. | ||
