What was I even worried about?" and then plopping down a couple more rax right now. No they're still going to bunker rush. 5 seconds will make it a little easier to stop..I guess...but it's still extremely cost effective...aka it doesn't cost anything. | ||

Just some thoughts on that particular note with no particular confidence: Since it now does more damage against armored targets, I get the sense it was meant for making them a better support unit against things like colossi, seige tanks and the like, but it's duration is so short now, I'm skeptical that it will actually work that way. Is it still viable as a strategy for shorting a mineral line? What does this mean against a Terran or Zerg Bio-ball? I guess it's more powerful against marauder/stalker/roach, but it seems like that wasn't as critical a target since it can virtually wipe out the weaker units thanks to it's duration and "freeze" mechanic. On an unrelated note: props to whoever it is on the Blizzard staff that realized that Control Group Buttons on the UI should have the option to be either unclickable or off altogether. I do this constantly and I hate losing to a mis-click like that (which has happened - believe me). Also, I like not having to see the menu buttons I've already disabled at the top of the screen. More screen, fewer buttons to accidentally press - fewer mis-clicks, more uninterrupted game time. Thanks to all involved. | ||

I doubt archons were ever meant to be a unit you actually get. 300 gas for a melee unit that only tanks for a few seconds is quite expensive. Archons are just a throw away unit. | ||

HT nerf was not the right way to go. Collosi are even more of a no-brainer now. | ||

any REAL terran nerfs? Protoss gets hits the most since beta, zergs gets some small buffs here and there, but are still mostly terrible, and terran gets build time reduce nerfs? | ||

Instant cast fungals pretty bullshit And Marines being the counter to Banelings isn't bullshit... You are definitely a Terran player if you think Fungal needed reworking. The only useful thing about Fungal was the fact that it actually made your Banelings somewhat cost-effective. | ||

 that would make fungal growth more of an aoe damage type skill instead of a lock skill.... | ||

This 30% damage bonus, does it mean it does 8 damage/s to armored and 6/s to others or it still does same damage to all but armored units under fungal receive 30% damage from all attacks? | ||

This would be ok independently of anything else. I'm shocked they didn't buff corruptors. It seems like the huge balance issue in the game right now is pvz colossus deathball, not pvt templars. I think maybe blizzard really does play terran. | ||
