There will obviously be balance shifts when gameplay values are changed. Nobody is claiming otherwise. This thread is about the effect these changes have on the clarity and spectator-friendliness of SC2. | ||

Hots will throw every balance away either way and adjusting AOE is not as hard as many make it sound like. I can assure you. It looks great and it feels really good. Edit: now that I think about it. What is the difference between "mm daybreak" and "daybreak dynamic movement"? | ||

Balance would have to be overhauled for every single unit because it's such a huge change. I know it's been said but AoE damage would be totally different, and therefore all balance would have to be reiterated. | ||

Searching mmdaybreak should bring it right up.... Or does it usually take a while for a map to be published? I see MMDayBreak by pzea on NA | ||

I don't really see the improvement. It won't remove deathballs; it will only make them deathsquares (plus, when units move through a choke, the clump up again). Overall, I just don't see how this fixes anything. | ||

With a new expansion, it is the perfect opportunity for Blizzard to make some core design changes and have the time to thoroughly test them unlike some patches they have released recently. | ||

Actually, the best change to SC2 could be just to buff AOE and let the players micro their asses of trying splitting their armies, instead of making it easier through the UI. Now this is something that Blizzard will never do, because it is extremely noob-unfriendly, but whatever. | ||

"i don't like unit clumping because it's ugly, i dont think anyone else likes it" you even say "i don't even watch SC2 anymore" and you try to make it more like BW. no, this is not what SC2 "needs". what you need to do is find something you like because you clearly don't like SC2. | ||

You're right, I don't like the current state of SC2. I played it excessively when it was in beta and post release but then got tired of playing it and watching it. I feel like one of the major disappointments for me is the way units ball up. I find it terrible. I think there are many who agree with me on that part. No I don't think SC2 is perfect and I will always not just criticize the game but will also try and inspire it to become better. It's the same reason I made the Stronger Team Color mod. I love what this game could become. I'm not trying to turn SC2 into Broodwar, but we should learn from Broodwar, not avoid it. If you don't agree with me I understand, but don't call it "a load of crap". I don't want the Blizzard response of "play another game" or "you can still play broodwar". Other games, including Broodwar don't have the potential of capturing the hearts of competitive gamers anymore. It's SC2's time to move esports forward, and I'd like to think I at least tried to help make it the most fun to watch and play as possible. | ||

Without a change will this a buff to AOE would never come considering blizzards trend of nerfing every single AOE spell | ||
