EPTAlso not sure why they're buffing ghosts. I guess T's been having problems with infestors, but . honestly a couple of ghosts can deal with it pretty well as is without eating into the tank count too much. There should be some tension there, but we'll see how it plays out.
Patch 1.3.3 PTR - Page 66

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. | ||

In fact, PvP and PvT have just basically been entirely changed. So many new timings to die to terran early game, and late game ghosts are going to be ridiculous to deal with. I don't understand the thought process behind 150 templars, 150 infestors, but 100 ghosts? Not to mention our late game composition is MUCH more gas heavy then terran's, yet they get the gas cheap spellcaster? I don't understand the thought process. Archon and spore change is nice. | ||

Stating that it is only a simulation based on data. New radius is aprox 0.85% of old one like shown on the pic. However, So the area is being reduced in almost 30%. How is it not significant? | ||

And as for Ghosts, I feel like making them cost 100/150 might have been more appropriate than 200/100 - like others said, Ghosts are supposed to be gas-intensive, not mineral-intensive. | ||

2 gate seems like it will be strong vs zerg. I would have liked to see the spine root timing reduced due to this too. Archons will add interesting new timings before the colossus window opens. The other changes I kind of like. Free salvage is out and the ghost may be more viable in tvz. | ||

I reckon its huge difference. It'll be so much harder to place a proxy pylon that can warp in over ramps, and as a PvP enthusiast thats a pretty damn good fix to 4 gate. These Protoss changes seem to really address the over early game aggression of Protoss which in turn results in pretty significant changes to Gateway PvP. ----- I don't understand why they haven't changed the Gateway production time of High Templars and Dark Templars, too. I was hoping that the Gateway buff would result in strategical decisions between Gateways and Warpgates, but the HT/DT issue implies that Gateways are supposed to only be a valid option in the early game. And as for Ghosts, I feel like making them cost 100/150 might have been more appropriate than 200/100 - like others said, Ghosts are supposed to be gas-intensive, not mineral-intensive. what r u trying to say about the Gateway lol? made no sense to me I might've misread or something. ----- and as for 2 gate pressure maps are now alot bigger than previous (when will they get rid of the DQ) so it might not be the same nightmare. Proxy 2gate though, different story  cheese be cheese. | ||
