Please DISCUSS the changes and the impact they will have on gameplay.

Straight up whining and bitching will get you a ban, no exceptions.

This. Is. Awesome.

I basically can't see a negative to the proscene with these changes. Im giddy right now especially as certain tournies refused to remove gold mineral bases and now they don't have to. Makes me curious if GSL will consider putting them back in at some point.

Now psionic units are ghosts, templar, and infestors only correct? Am I missing any others?

anyone can figure out if its still 2 snipes for HT and 3 for zealot ? also what else does the snipe change affect (infestors? marauders?)


It would be 2 against HT because they are psi, but zealots will be more.

I think these changes are just what we need

High yield bases can be kept, Terran ghosts won't rape Zerg units, and phoenix can actually be more useful- especially against mutalisks later on!

Very nice

(Terran whining incoming x.x)


Agreed.

Maybe I'm not meant to be saying this in any thread about Blizzard, but <3 Blizz balance decisions.

TERRANS you get a +5 damage buff vs Templar ^_^

PROTOSS the phoenix actually counters muta now.

Very big patch indeed. I think maybe the snipe is a bit to much, since the overall TvZ has been very stable around 50% in a long time. We will se about it, crying will be done indeed.

Snipe will do 5 more damage against Ghost/Infestor/Templar and less against other units.


Awesome, thanks for the quick response.

oh shit TvZ late game is so hard already. Ghosts are much worse against ultras now i guess, so a broodlord-ultra switch should be an easy way for zergs to win the lategame now.

They are nerfing the ghost too much. First was the emp radius then the damage from the snipe ... I just feel like they are nerfing the terran a little too much (the mule thing doesnt count too much for tournaments as they tend to use maps without high yield expansions)

:D:D

More I read David Kim's situation reports, more I wonder what he's doing there :D CPM, way to go yo :D :D

Still, good changes.

Wonder why +25 vs psionic and not +25 vs Light? Interesting, still good vs Infestors, bad vs Zealots tho
