Adding a low tech slow/immobilize spell to each race was clearly a mistake when they already made mechanics so much easier. I don't understand why did they remove ability to micro. BW zerg queens had only a slow for such high tier unit and arbiters pretty much had 2-3 target vortex that mothership has and also the ghost lockdown was pretty high tech and still worse that sc2 stuns/slows. You probably misunderstood what this thread is about. My idea wasn't just removing these 3 spells and calling it a day. They obviously have to balance other parts of the game after making these changes. If you decided to replace fungal with plague then sure, but fungal is the only offensive spell that zerg has, and is one of the only spells that it has... tell you what, remove the infester and add the defiler | ||

Collosus: amove unit is boring. reaver was awesome and required skill to utilize effectively. Carrier: they suck. can't even micro them. no surprise factor (even if there was, vr's still exist). Ultralisk: they suck. 2 marines can kill it. - What mechanics do you find needing tweaks? or badly designed. i think mechanics are fine. very easy but i don't think it's that big of a problem. - What graphic/misc tweaks do you want to see? none. - What type of new units/buildings would you like to see? not anything specific(other than bw stuff like arbiters, lurkers, reaver etc) but i want to see positional play from all the races. i want to see defender advantage greatly increased. i want stuff that punishes ppl HARD for deathballing. i want to see stuff that enables multiple engagements at multiple fronts instead of 3 second fights after 20 minutes of macroing. | ||

Air balance in general could use a lot of tweaking for it to become 'interesting.' I think corruptors and vikings are simply too much of a hard-counter to carrier and battlecruiser play, mostly because of their range. Brood lords see far more use than the other capital ships because their ammo is expendable and long-range (and they actually benefit you as corruptors before their tech is complete, unlike carriers and BCs). So: Colossus, Corruptor, Carrier. | ||

Immortals Corruptors Overseers Ultralisks As for spells... I think a slight FF nerf which took a bit of the control out of the Protoss' hands would be for the best... though I still think they should be able to place the FF on top of units otherwise they would be useless. HSM should get a speed buff.... or something. I would like to see zealot legs researched at the cyber core for 100/100 and charge at the twilight council for 100/100. There is always more I could add... but I'll leave it at that. | ||

The Ultralisk is pretty fail in my opinion and should be replaced with a more accessible tank. | ||

This orb (think something similar to a photon cannon missile) would be fired at the *position* of units, instead of the units itself (ie. not like a photon cannon, where the missile follows the target and hits no matter what) and move somewhat slower than a photon cannon orb. This opens up the possibility for enemy players to micro away from the attacks of the Colossus, although it should be hard. Additionally, it should open up for Colossus harass/drop-micro being viable. great idea, give to the colossus the seeker missiles and make it more fast | ||

I find Corrupters Colossus Overseers Also Roaches, they feel like a Toss unit not Zerg and are incredibly boring to use. Spells that need rework: Warp gate Force field Fungal Conc shell. | ||

Observers- why did they remove this unit? While this would make ravens almost obsolete, I would rather see obs than ravens any day. Uh... What? | ||

I think it is a very fun mechanic, and sentry itself is a pretty weak unit that costs a ton of gas (pay 50 more gas and you get a HT!). And unupgraded gateway units would be nigh worthless without it. If you remove FF you would have to significantly buff gateway units, which would in turn make early attacks from P too strong due to warp gates. | ||

For example, Vikings had a splash damage upgrade. Way too powerful for multi-player, but helped a lot a few of the single-player missions against mass mutas. Blizzard is just adding cool upgrades for Zerg in HotS, and I am sure Protoss will have cool upgrades in LotV. | ||

1. Corruptor 2. Marauder 3. Overseer 4. Reaper 5. Hydra - What mechanics do you find needing tweaks? or badly designed. Forcefield, fungal growth (spells that force a situation without the other player being able to do anything aggainst it. for instance, perhaps the fungal growth would be better as a slow, and forcefield become destructible some way (before tier 3 that is.) unit movement (clumping too much), scouting options. - What type of new units/buildings would you like to see? Less gimmicky units that depend on not being scouted to be good, and more straightforward ones, that rely more on skill. | ||
