http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/news/jp-exlusive-interviews-blizzard-browder-kim/ Here are some quotes from David Kim: "Minus the biases from the players aside, overall I think the balance of the game is pretty solid." "For 1v1 maps specifically, we're trying to make a very diverse set of maps so players who love rushing, macro, or more normal game play can all enjoy the different formats."

A little strange to me that he specifically mentions broodlord+infestor vs T as something they are looking at. It seems that especially Korean Terrans with their crazy drop play are able to roll over that comp, being that its so slow. Edit: Would like to add, I'm all for brood+infestor being less prominent. Slow powerful units as the center of the unit comp just doesn't feel zergy | ||

Even getting to the point that you can get broods out safely against MMA seems like quite a feat  | ||

 This concept of "giving rush maps, normal maps and macro maps for all players, casual and serious" seems a bit strange. Casual players can still enjoy games and rush on a regular map instead of needing a map that sacrifices quality for these traits. | ||

Holy shit that is a HORRIBLE explanation for why they keep a HORRIBLE unit in competitive play. How about give the terran all the units in the single player too for the bronze and gold league players? They just told protoss that you get one less viable unit b/c its fun for some players who don't care about winning. | ||

MMA jsut has much better multitasking than his opp, and hence is able to win. IF the zerg has really good multitasking, or just invest in a lot of spines, terrans wont be able to base there entire strategy on drops. And if a terran 200/200 army cant beat a zerg 200/200 army, there has to be some balance change. | ||

Sounds like maps that we will veto on the ladder, and tournaments will ignore. Wouldn't worry about it : ) | ||
