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. | ||

-Protoss balance is centered around the zealot build time. -Terran balance is entirely centered around the bunker. | ||

If anything, this patch buffs mech play in TvP. Yep. One of the biggest dangers to siege expand was actually 4gate. 40 second+ research times makes siege expand WAAAY safer. Normal 4gate hits at 6:30, now it will come at 7:00+, when I'll usually have at least 2 tanks. | ||

 The bunker change was coming - to much yelling and screaming about it for to long now; overall i am excited to proxy 2gate on the blizzard maps :p | ||

Dude come on, think before posting something like that. Makes no sense. Well i guess Protoss is OP, "since people using the race are getting better"... ONOZ time to nerf. If you keep losing to protoss then you must be doing something wrong... anyone can win, but its up to your opponent or up to how you play it out... Well this patch looks cool, it will be interesting how protoss will incorporate warpgate and gateway together, instead of using warpgate throughout the game... | ||

Anyway, I hope this is the beginning of the end for four warpgate play, it's gotten stagnant and boring, so I welcome the idea that they're trying to remove that strategy from the game. | ||

More pylons needed in base, fewer proxy pylons or atleast toss cannot spam proxy pylons all over the map in the beginning and also is hurts a lot of other map specific pylon placements. Overall I love this patch just because it makes TvP mech a lot more stronger (I hate bio in TvP). I completelly understand the 4gate nerf being necessary. Hell, whenever I played PvP, I had that weird expression on my face denoting something close to distaste and cringe. But, the WG research increase is imo good enough to accomplish that. Being forced to use Pylons as part of wall-off is just bad. It's so easy for lings/roaches/anything except workers to kill one single Pylon and then go on hunt into your base. Even if everything goes through, I hope this particular Pylon change will not. Some of us prefer to play safe and not rely on rush builds this patch may no doubt support. PS: Yes, I noticed. Though, you are now more like BabyTerran since you play T  | ||

Although it could just be because players weren't sure which opening was the most economical. i think the newer bigger maps will still favor hatch first | ||

I think warpgates still will probably be worth the extra 5ish second build time though. I guess this also gives a defenders advantage in PvP. I don't know if this change is enough though. I think it might be a step in the right direction as long as 2gate zealot pressure doesn't become a huge problem like it was. Bunkers are no longer free. That took long enough :p Spore crawlers will probably be a little more useful in defending bashee/void ray harass now. I was kind of hoping spines would go back down to 6 seconds too, but I think that's okay. Warpgate is still better in the long run, assuming that your opponent only goes pure gateways and not gate/robo or 3gate expand. The difference is that the longer research time gives the defender a bigger advantage for a short while and allows for later techs such as robo or possibly even expand. | ||

Salvage resource return reduced from 100% to 75%. This should have been: Salvage resource return reduced from 100% to 0% .Bunkers are so good without salvage there is no reason at all for it to be in the game. | ||
