LETS GO ATTAC HIS BASE" moving robo to gateway is a terrible idea immortal stalker templar would be way too easy to get So you feel removing KA is better? At least this way you can queue up you HTs and when built they've got storm. Also, how is it 'too easy to get' if Immortals are built at Gateways? You still need another structure after Core - Twilight Council. Immortals will still be bloody expensive and still fill a very niche role - Anti Armor. You wouldn't want to build a lot of them unless your opponent goes mass Marauder or Roaches. Which quite frankly is quite often and should be discouraged. | ||

Give it some time... the patch isn't available to everyone just yet. Until the patch is synchronized those stats will be mismatched. | ||

I also like removing the w/l ratio, it's easier to celebrate for people who are not into competition as top tier players. Can't wait to ladder.  | ||

WOW Unbelievable. Biggest nerf yet to Terran. That's huge. Who cares about EMP or the amulet. This nerf is so core to any bio timing build, or even just being able to survive early. I'm glad I'm not a pro who has to rework every build and timing play they have. Although most of the Terrans got knocked out in the TSL3 in the first round, I'm dying to see how the last two can adapt. Go Boxer :-). | ||

Boxer's games were incredibly boring. 200/200 EMP ball vs. 200/200 colossus death ball. I imagine with the patch everyone's going to start doing that. And yeah, I haven't lost to that stim timing push in a long time now. It's not very meaningful. | ||

And yeah, I haven't lost to that stim timing push in a long time now. It's not very meaningful. How can you say it's not meanful. You can expand earlier. You can attack earlier with much greater chance of winning. Stimmed bio is absolutely crucial to defense against phoenix, voidray, muta, banshee, blink stalker and bling harass. I mean, it's like adding 30 seconds to warpgate tech. Sure, it doesn't mean much in the later stages of the game, but it's hardly trivial. | ||

Sure, it doesn't mean much in the later stages of the game, but it's hardly trivial. Why does it matter that stim takes 30 seconds longer when you're defending against phoenix, voidray, muta, banshee, blink stalker or banelings? You have any idea how long those things take to make? Warp gate is necessary to defend against certain builds. It also allowed for proxy gates to be ridiculously effective to the point that it was all that protoss ever did. That's why it was nerfed. That made sense, because it changed the game. Stim nerf doesn't. You also don't use stim when you're setting up a contain, which is what you want to do if the point of your pressure is to expand. Otherwise you're just throwing away units in a futile push. | ||

The point he's making is that there's virtually no effective difference. Either you have to wait to gain energy, or you have to wait to produce the unit. Either way, you have to wait.

Which quite frankly is quite often and should be discouraged. The point is that one of the restrictions that Immortals have is that they have a completely different production building. If you want to mass them, you either have to throw down a lot of Robos, or you have to wait for them to walk out one or two at a time. If you can build as many Immortals as there are Gateways/Warpgates, then they would need to be weaker to compensate. | ||

 but I see many streams from it...so I guess it's just me having my main account on EU server that is now down and for some stupid reason the battlenet probably tries to autenticate me on EU server (???) before letting me login in my NA account.sux to have 2 accounts and not being able to play either of them! | ||
