It's pretty ridiculous against bio, but then again, I don't really feel like bio should be played all game long against Protoss. Most of the time, against a top tier player you're eventually going to fail. I don't think the bunker change is necessary. The first nerf was enough. It's already pretty hard to get them up against 4 gate/6 gate timing attacks and now you'll need to be prepared 5 seconds faster. And let's face it, Archon/storm toilet was COMPLETELY broken. KiwiKaki demonstrated that to us perfectly against some zerg (can't remember who) on Metal. Glad to see the change there. Re Amulet: Exactly. You read this thread and get the impression that barracks are the only buildings T have. Just to spell it out: most of the time you're going to see templar, Protoss has teched through warpgates->robo->robobay->twilight->archives. That's two full techtrees. If you're still on pure barracks with some vikings peppered in at that point, you have no one to blame but yourself. If there is some kind of stalemate situation going on at that point, where you have a huge bio army that you can't use because P is too strong defensively - that is something that would warrant fixing. Either by adjusting T strategies to not commit too heavily to a 2base bio attack vs defensive Protoss, or by Blizzard messing with some timings. The Khaydarin removal just seems like a really weak way to fix a problem that is, essentially, with the Terran players. -- About the other two changes, agree. Bunker's ability to be used offensively should be affected, not defensively. They were fine as defense. Besides, a build time increase won't change much, except for slightly raising the possibility of taking out marines before the bunker is finished. Like we needed more incentive to go 4gate. | ||

- Khaydarin Amulet upgrade (+25 starting energy) has been removed. - An alert has been added when MULEs expire. - An alert has been added when the Chrono Boost buff expires. - An alert has been added when the Spawn Larva buff expires. The alerts are removing skill from the game. Protoss players will never again make HT's... | ||

Most likely you will already have Templar tech (DT or HT), so grabbing a few Archons isn't a stretch. Besides, I don't have so much an issue with nerfing out the archon toilet. The much bigger issue is letting your opponents get a free hit on you. | ||

Brood Lord up to 450/350 Overseer at 150/100 I think there is a bug, the price of the mutation became the price of the unit + the mutation, nothing on the baneling ? | ||

"Hey! Look, people are starting to use mothership! We totally knew the meta game was going to evolve!" Blizzard Nerf'd ... EDIT: wtf! Spawn larva notifications?? That was the difference between a good zerg and a bad zerg... It's like forcefields for toss... | ||

Brood Lord up to 450/350 Overseer at 150/100 WTF? hm given that the broodlord change is "Old broodlord cost + corrupter cost" and Overseer is "Old Overseer + Overlord" and adding in that it isn't mentioned in the change log, I'd bet money on "its a bug" | ||

But the alert is pretty stupid. | ||

It did more damage and had a much, much bigger AOE, if you landed two good storms then it was devastating, not to mention DT's and Templars were made from the same building AND units had shitty AI so running out of the Storm wasn't as easy as it is now | ||

Thank god, I think that's pretty reasonable. It's still a nerf, but at least it's fast enough that it won't effect 99% of people or 99% of situations. The Overseer and Broodlord nerf is just mindblowing though. | ||
