Dunno how I feel about the upgrade buff, but EMP nerf had to happen.

Don't worry, dudes! There's still snipe! Pew, pew, pew. :D

You sure about range+radius = range?


Yes, because it means you can only hit 11.5 maximum now instead of 12.

Range of casting+ radius = Range of effect.

Reducing the upgrade cost isn't really an huge buff that will suddenly make all Protoss players upgrade more. Sure, Protoss get a discount of 375/375 in total and shields get more attractive, but it has no effect on your upgrading speed - the time is still the same and if you were basing your strategy on upgrades, you were getting those anyway and a small discount won't change that.

It just allows you to add a few extra units along the way (think 3 zealots and an archon), which is a subtle, suitable buff.

Oh wow really? Currently TvP is the most shittiest matchup ever, 90% of all Protoss stay one base in Diamond and Master for Voidray/Immortal/DT cheese/busts and now they get buffed once again. Protoss can get his upgrades the fastest, Terran the slowest... makes no sense for me to even increase the speed...

What game are you playing? Because it isn't Starcraft 2...
I play Protoss, because lets face it, who doesn't love hyper-advanced Egyptian ninja-aliens that kill people with lightsabres attached to both arms?

Wow, this is pretty cool from Blizzard. They did live up to what they said at Blizzcon.

If I'm not wrong, the reduction in radius range would mean that the AOE of 1 EMP would be reduced by 44%.

It would also mean a slight range nerf by 0.5, not really a big deal.

The upgrades cost being reduced is quite unexpected. I don't recall any complaints about it and it seems like a broad change that would be hard to quantify. I would prefer it if there were a snipe nerf on ghosts, since Terrans like TaeJa and Bomber are managing to snipe off high templars so efficiently.

Well, it's definitely a change in the right direction and I'm overall really excited to see the TvPs in Code S next season.

I'll be impressed if this is enough to buff Toss.

I always thought the problem with the ups was the scaling... not actually getting the ups though I guess Bliz is nudging us this way.

Shields will still be crap. Not just because of the costs, but because everything just melts to emp. If shields offered some % reduction on emp effectiveness... (ofc archons and carriers could become an issue again?)

The Emp radius was much much muuuch needed. Still think Bliz is going to have to go back and get Khadaryin back in the game (65 enery or somesuch) and possibly even HT movement speed before Toss will be even in the late game.

edit: The upgrades balance out because the toss army uses so much more gas than the Terran so it's much harder for Toss to incorporate upgrades into a neat build than for terran to drop double engies.
