no but do protoss really need more nerfs?!?! ;o

Exactly, they should instead give the Collosus a researchable ability 'Anti-Baneling stance' which will make the Collosus automatically position itself 'properly' on a cliff so Banelings will do nothing ^_^


No man they should jump in the air and spin their legs really fast so that they can fly. Kind of like a peahat from the legend of zelda Ocarina of time

Dont. Remove. This. Bug.

It's these sorts of things that made BW awesome.
Also, why even try hitting a colossus with banelings? It's like going at the tanks instead of bio in zvt, with your banes, big waste.

This is far from the worst bug I've seen in the game. There was one when they adjusted the ultralisk splash where when an ultralisk attacked a command center, scv's on the opposite side of the command center were getting hit by the splash. The ultralisk wasn't removed while blizzard fixed that. Although that one was serious enough to get fixed really fast.

It's not really that big of a deal. I mean, yeah, it sucks, but really, who runs banes into colossi?

Besides, I don't think we're going to see many pro games won by a clutch colossi on the high ground, eating banelings which happen to be the only units a Z has left >_>

Still, they should fix it. It's just not a very big deal. The ultra splash bug was 10000x worse.

I am sure protoss players will be really happy when we inform them that high templar doesn't do damage to broodlords anymore.

^Because banelings are a essential component of z v p arsenal now, and yes, all koreans goes for tanks in z v t, i am sure you are a better player than they are.

He means running your banelings into enemies bio and not his tanks..

IMO this isn't a viable bug to exploit, although it could be horrible (mostly by accident). Nice find

While this is definitely a bug and should be fixed (because it indicates towards something even more undesirable happening in the code), I don't see this affecting many games at all. Banelings are rarely the go-to unit to snipe lone Colossi. Good find, post on Blizzard forums, but it definitely isn't an imbalance.

This isnt a big deal. yes it will and probably should be fixed, but it affects basically no games. The fact that more than 1 year after release, literally millions of games have been played and this is the first most / anyone has heard of it suggests no-one cares too much

I would imagine its as a result of banelings being splash damage. Im yet to test the theory, but I would assume a baneling exploding on low ground does not affect a unit on the high ground and vice versa right? In which case, as when the colloss is half off half on the cliff, it has to be considered as either a unit on the cliff or off the cliff, in which case if its considered off the cliff and blings are on the cliff, the splash wont hit it. however, it can still be targeted as the model of the unit is present on both high and low ground. Just my theory, but would make sense, right?

I've gotta go with this on this one. Lots of things that would be called bugs in Starcraft 2 were actually things that fed into the balance of Brood War.

... really? stacking mutas and holding lurkers is wayyyy different than having a unit that is invincible in certain situations.
