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.

hoped for a bigger change to warpgates. yeah it makes the timing window smaller still i think the mechanic will continue to create problems. such a low tech to ignore rushdistance is just super hard to really balance on big maps.


pylon radius is a VERY good change. a very very simple and small change to make the "pylon warpin into your base" harder.


rest nothing special. all quite ok i guess.


Also, building excessive bunkers at your natural to blind counter baneling busts will also be punished.


this is the only thing i dont like about the bunker change. you pretty much have to blindly build tons of defensive bunkers to not die vs a bust since there usually is pretty much no way to scout it if the Z is smart.
but i dont think that 100 mins / game will matter that much so whatever..

I do not know what type of dimensions used in Blizzard, but I can find the estimated reduction of the pylon using percentages.

[image loading]

If this is the reduction, I do not think a change as significant as many think.

Stating that it is only a simulation based on data.

EDIT: Image correction

spore crawlers get a buff but spines dont? the way i see it they should have the same root time as spines, because theyr very similar

Can someone tell me why the archon change is good for PvP?


Can crush FFs, can't be lifted.

Aaah right! Of course! Yeah that's really good!

and I guess, correct me if I'm wrong, archons are really powerful against gateway units
Well yes, I wonder this too...

great. now protoss get their sentries even faster to stack up their energy
bunker nerf was way overdue.

How are they similar? They both root in the ground, that's it lol. By that logic all plants and trees are the same to you (and whatever else roots into the ground)

You could easily argue, for example, the Spine Crawler requires a longer rooting time because it is *much* taller, and thus requires to root deeper to be as stable as the Spore. Fixed

It is a good way to fix PvP 4-gates but it introduces probelms in the other matchups. Fast chrono-bosted gateway zealots will be too good on smaller maps. I think it would be better to keep zealot build time at is is, but go ahead with the other changes.

overall I think these are all pretty good changes! can't wait to see them live.

but why make the 2 proxy-gate zealot rush so good once more?

Spore crawler change isn't active. They still take 12 seconds to burrow.

I think about playing Mech + Ghost now.
Just 100 Gas for Ghosts makes is even stronger. Lets watch some GoOdy games.

To the spores: I played 1/1/2 Mass Banshee heavy to scout and very strong IMO.
But after the patch Banshees are this useful anymore.

I think that this is going to weaken the quick 4gates. As a Zerg, I can see 6 gates becoming a little harder to hold off.

One question: if archon is massive, siege tanks why not? Its a bit funny that phoenix can lift a tank thats bigger than the whole flier. Meh. Though recently i didnt see anything like this, probably because TvP mech is not based on tanks.
T for BoxeR, Z for IdrA, P because i have no self-respect

Just read that? What the hell? You aren't able to stuck mutas anymore? wtf, is Blizzard doing x_X


Pretty sure this is mainly for "Viking Flowers" -- Muta's will probably remain unaffected.
