1.3.3 was a really big balance patch. They do balance changes in these kind of patches

But if ppl push a little bit during blizzcon, especially with the "TL interview with Browder", they may add some balance changes.

That is pure speculation. If they were to change the entire games balance based on interviews at Blizzcon it would either be magnanimous or terrifying.

I'm going to go with terrifying, thinking it implies they failed to notice it being said a dozen times before.

I think thats a little bit of an exaggeration. Its not perfect but its not a joke either.

This patch is likely to be about minor bug fixes, blizzcon portraits and decals, and probably some promotional stuff for HotS to be included in WoL but I can't see any mayor balance changes happening.
I also don't see HotS released this year or early next one, most likely at the end of next year so we will see some more changes in balance before the new ladder kicks in; here's hoping for a december or january release of Diablo 3 though, that'll blow my mind
I do agree balance changes are not always good, the infestor change for instance was not good and protoss was already figuring out some ways to fight it, blizz needs to let the game develop a bit before changing balance issues, I know it takes time but the great players of SC2 are working on solving "overpowered" builds and then they throw a monkey wrench in their plans.
Here's hoping the new units won't suck and my prayers of fixing the hydra so it's viable be answered !!!

My guess is that the new patch will come with the start of the new season. It will include map pool changes.

I will be very disappointed if they don't make some balance changes soon, there are some obvious imbalances that need to be addressed.

Destructible rocks now behaves like critters, they move around randomly all over the map. Zerg borrow units can now move under the rock for protection. Terran can build bunkers on top to increase bunker range by 1. Protoss zealot with charge will now push the rock at the direction of the charge.

Early november would just be around the time they Concluded the winners for the TL map making contest. We might just see some map changes.

More well deserved nerfs for protoss?

Need to delay thermal lance
they can still make a 1 base 2 colosus timing push before the 10 minute mark

There you go. I knew it would be bunker related.

Blizzard takes balancing very seriously. Proper match balance is what makes a good game a great one. They make a lot of maths and statistics on match all around the world to see if things are going ok or they need to fix them up. I month ago they posted about it.
Just because I'm in big problems against mass marine It doesn't mean that medivacs or stim should be nerfed. I would be very happy if they do, but I know that is just my issue and I have to deal with it.
So, as someone else noted before, Blizzard tests balance changes and no tests has been done since 1.4.1. Don't expect balance changes.

Everything in this thread is pure speculation anyway.
Let's wait until it's released. We'll have material to discuss then.

hots is 2+ years out.

You kidding?
No way, not even Blizzard would be that ridiculous.

HOTS by end of 2012 at the latest. It'll likely be by Q2 2012, depending on D3 release date. They won't want to release both games simultaneously.




I'm expecting HOTS to be out in roughly the same time frame as WOL. So somewhere between may and early august, I guess

You're right man, it's impossible to snipe infestors or broodlords with 1 less range on snipe. I mean, Protoss have range 9 on Feedback and Colossi, and they lose to Broodlord/Infestor every time. Blizzard should probably nerf Broodlord range instead, cause Ghosts obviously aren't good enough against Zerg T3 yet.
