Massive units are not affected by concussive shells. If you think they are, you are wrong.
It's SPORE crawlers that are being changed, not SPINE. Please read carefully.

Thors nerfed?! What? It seems this patch is favoring the ubiquitous bioball (Thor nerf, Ghost buff, etc) versus protoss. I thought Blizzard wanted to move away from MMM-Viking?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Liquid get more Terrans please...

The Thor energy is just so you can fight them late--2-base +2 armor (i.e. Thorzain) still works, I think. The P won't have shitloads of time to get HTs out if you're doing that build because they'll still need copious Immortal/Zealot to fight it at all, which means some Robo tech and 200 gas into Charge . . . probably can't do Thors all game anymore though

All I can say is YES! Amulet removal was necessary, but left templar route too unrewarding. Now, with archon buffs and the ability to feedback thors again, get ready to see a lot more templar PvT which is much needed! Love every change

I like the new changes a lot. The zealot changes were getting kind of silly so im glad they didnt revert back to the beta build time.

i hope archons are baller now, I used to love watching them in BW. POWER OVERWHELMING.

I dont like infestor speed, freaking turds are slow enough as is.


edit; if archons become sweet i may switch back to my BW toss roots.

OMG archon range increase awesome, i dont know if 20 seconds will make much of a difference now though in PVP =/ i think 4 gate may still be completely viable.

also im loving the fact that ht's will be viable against thors again that is awesome, i think ghosts may be used to emp the thors if 250mm cannon isnt being used though, i see people doing it with bc's already so i think that is still totally an option, either way having a way to deal with 250mm cannon is great because its kind of ridiculous that thors counter immortals with 250mm cannon and there isnt really a response to it.

This patch is becoming pretty awesome, finally a good mixture of nerfs and buffs for protoss :D

I was really hoping that gateways would become viable for macroing while your sitting in your base so im kind of dissapointed they changed the times back except for the sentry, although it does make sense as 2 gate proxy was pretty dominant when zealot only took 33 seconds, still blizzard should find some way to make gateways viable so its a choice between convenience while macroing in your base and mobility fromm warping in units from afar =(

archons are gonna be awesome in PVT i can see it now im gonna open dt's way more often just so i can transfer into archon based armies later on, also its really gonna help against muta harass with the extra range an archon in each mineral line and a cannon or 2 and archons are gonna protect my mineral lines realll nice :D

Thor now has 200 max energy, and starts with 50 energy.

250mm Strike Cannons now cost 150 energy to use (cooldown removed).





WTF is this for? A unit that was good against Protoss except the Marauder and now it's back to being feedback fodder? I really hope this does not make it in the final patch.


The post above yours has a good solution

I know . That was the solution back when it had energy and, most would agree, it's retarded.

The thing is, IMO, this makes the Thors a loooot worse in the late game (when templars are out) and that is the time when you don't actually use the 250mm thing, in big battles and all. Back to EMP my own Thors....Jesus...i thought we were past that lol

Yeah, but from my PvT understanding Thors, when they were upgraded, were incredibly hard to deal with... Protoss kind of needed a better answer.

Yup everything looks good in this patch ! Im glad they left the zealot train time as is ! They just avoided 99% of Pv? games being proxy ( even far away ) 2gate zealot rush, especially vs zerg !

Other then that the thor change seems a bit overreacting - IMO its because a lot of noise was made over the thorzain game I mean how often do terran leave their MM for mass thors, basicaly it makes HT's just to strong because they just OWN any bioball and now allmost ALL mech - Battlecruisers, Bansees, Raven, Medivac, and now Thors

Oh and a slight decrease in spine rooting, not as low as the spores but still could be a LITTLE faster no ?

Archons have always been a ball...

I don't like festor speed decrease too. Maybe they're trying to address the burrow + IT spam---why not remove burrow move or slow it down when it is burrowed? I know it is entirely possible.

We will now see even LESS TvP mech (if that's even possible). Since when was protoss having late game trouble? lol

it was kind of ridiculous that the counter to thors immortals were countered so easily by 250mm cannon now its still possible but if you go templar immortal it is now a good option against thors rather then going immortal and still getting pummeled without any real response, chargelots do okay and so do void rays but vikings and hellions deal with those 2 solutions really easily so if they scout properly voidrays shouldnt be much of a problem against thors.

Finally ill have a response to thor hellion :D

Well toss have the perfect answer in T2 for thors/siege tanks ..... Immortels ! Why make them vunrable to HT's & make the strike cannon be basicaly a ''one shot'' spell even if the battle goes on for long. Cuz lets say the thor is at its MAX 200 energy - 150 for a shot leaves it with a measly 50 energy and you know it wont be back to 150 till the next battle or maybe the one after !
