they should just make it take 1 second to build for each 1 mineral you want back with salvage, so atm 75 seconds

I dont know how people can just randomly say nerf blue flame helions because of their dramatic rise in popularity, the skill hasnt changed in large part for months, and people havent complained about it all. Meanwhile, fungal gets buffed dramatically, and zerg results dramatically increase, and people conveniently look away? Just because terrans are learning to use their assets (one that has been there for 8 months unchanged mind you) doesn't mean others who can't deal with them should be rewarded.

Well you have to realize that because terrans were not using them earlier, that they were not doing as well as they could have been, which means that they have experienced fewer nerfs overall during the first year of starcraft 2 than they maybe should have. Especially considering Dustin Browder has admitted they are the most complete race.

Yes i agree that there is no need to nerf hellions, it's just that the other races don't have as many options as terran, so they get upset when terran busts out another to be even more versatile.

Blue flame has always been strong vs every race.

Terran has a lot of options. Why bother exploring early/mid game blue flame when other things win games?

Agh....a thread speculation about speculation.

Damn, I first took this as a hint of a new patch coming...

Couldn't care less about PTR really.

Not only does this hint at a EU PTR (which would make sooooooo damn happy) but also hints at a upcoming patch, before HOTS, that will have influence on balance and not change one icon, they would not give one (or hopefully all) regions PTR if it wouldn't be to actually test something in the close future (otherwise they could have just brought PTR to all regions with hots and sold it as a new feature).

Really cool find indeed - I have been complaining about the lack of PTR for EU forever.

Though it would be hilarious if it was just a community manager trolling.

I imagine that the 1-1-1 push, fungal growth and hellion are all being looked at it. Hellions seem to have taken over TvZ and TvT.

Possibly a buff to Immortals (and hopefully Hydras and Carriers, but I strongly doubt it)?

Either way, good news for us.

If anything it's infestors but the Zerg lobby is too strong for that so it'll never happen.

If that is made than certain strategies become unstappable.

The second this happens i'm gonna share s double startport mass phoenixes opening after expand that borders to the unstoppable without the infestors holding the units together. Just gonna ruin the balance change the second that happens, especially if there is a PTR in europe.

I actually did not know that there was not a PTR past North America. I will be happy for you guys if it truly does happen.

Here is hoping they fix Infestors. And maybe a buff to Warp Prisms.
