EPTI feel like snipe nerf probably won't pass completely in it's current state, probably will only be nerfed by a smaller amount, which I think is justified.

Mule's finally getting fixed, Snipe finally not gonna break lategame ZvT, and Pheonix might actually counter mutas in the way they're intended to. So fucking happy with this  Edit: APM change also much appreciated | ||

I'm pretty sure he's arguing against your "it won't make a difference" point. Your reasoning being that it's theoretically possible to micro phenoix against muta is not really valid since people are not able to do that. | ||

By the time that upgrade is out it should be trivial to deal with, at least defensively. Not like their attack range is an issue for terran, and infestors will shut them down just as easily as before. | ||

Not too sure about the Ghost change and I don't know how the Mule change will affect things but I guess we'll see. It's also great they brought back APM due to feedback. | ||

Now Ghosts are how the were intended to be (at least, I seem to remember their description as being more anti-caster than anti-Zerg T3). It's like one big ball of nerf/buff that's pretty cool. For the record Terrans that are complaining, Zerg T3 is supposed to be imposing. It's Zerg Tier 3. You let us get that far, and you're supposed to have to scramble. It's not my fault you didn't kill me before 20 minutes. I shouldn't be melted by Ghosts because of it. I just overall really like the patch. An attempt at fixing TvZ's muta shenanigans, a weird buff/nerf for Terran/Zerg/Protoss with the snipe buff/nerf, and MULEs only extra mining from regular minerals? And when you combine the addition of community tournament maps to the map pool (both of which were included in the TL Map Contest, just sayin') people should really stop bitching about Blizzard not listening to us. They let some things fall through the cracks, but this Patch is testament to the fact that they know what we're saying. It's just that what we bitch about isn't necessarily reasonable/intelligent half the time. My battlecruisers aren't imposing at all, neither are carriers, shouldn't zergs be punished for let toss and terran get to tier 3? | ||

They don't want one unit being able to really well vs all late game zerg units. It's is only viable option for terran in late game vs zerg now. If you take that away then how terran will do late game? | ||
