I always found it kinda dumb how a pylon could still warp stuff onto/below super high cliffs like the ones on Shakuras/Antiga. I think it's a good change.

it's going to be a completely different game, how can you say shit like

P.S. This change still won't stop PvP on Taldarim from being 4 gate vs 4 gate.

Dreamhack Spoiler! Sorta. Says who is in the finals, but not the results.

+ Show Spoiler +
So the game in the finals on Tal'durim alter, where hero ran past the bunker and warpped in units behind puma's natural's mineral line, punishing puma for the super weak defense, would not be possible? I don't really like this change.

Or from Hero vs Ret on the same map where hero warpped units from a pylon at ret's 4th into rets main, punishing ret for not having overlords there wouldn't be possible? I don't really like this change.

Blizzard, making SC2 more boring one change at a time for the sake of "balance" in an unsettled metagame.

with this change more macro games will occur as a minor scouting mistake won't cost you the game.

seems like a good change, the only use for it was gimicky and this also makes the defenders advantage actually exist even against protoss.

This. Defenders should have some advantage.

Warp in will still be ridiculously good.

Agreed. Warp in is one of the strongest things in the entire game. It completly removes the defenders advantage in PvZ and PvT.

You have to run all the way across the map to reinforce and this removes alot of aggressive strategies, but the protoss is able to instantly reinforce. You should not be forced to deal with both units comming in behind your defenses that you cannot stop and instant reinforcements at your main point of defense.

Maybe it makes it a little "more boring" (psh...honestly lol) but it's heading in the right direction to fix some of the major problems with warp gates in SC2.

Not to mention this is a "HOTS" change...

Haven't even seen a single HOTS game played at the tournament level yet and already protoss are saying they're losing lol.

oh a nerf discussion started 66% for it 33% against it. I don't mind nerfng toss early game abilities to attack, because it means they can buff the ability to defend early game or on even ground. And its interesting to see as that its actually something the community complained about alot. The gateway units being to weak, because warpin is so strong.

Can't wait for inverted maps though <3. was fun in bw main on lowground natural being the high ground xD.
