On Crux Whirlwind (not uploaded by Blizzard), it worked like in the OP (that is to say, no gliding shot). Sounds like custom mappers might have to make a change in their triggers with the patch. Terrible terrible damage to the game. Don't how the tournaments will handle this in the near future. It's like that every map will be updated. And there may be other bugs to custom maps. | ||

So instead of increasing range or damage or HP they decided to give it moving shot. Seriously, who the fuck even complains about the phoenix anyway? So protoss players literally complained about having to micro their units while their opponents have to micro their units as well, and got the privilege of not having to micro their units while their opponents still have to micro their units. And even then they say Phoenixes are "micro intensive". On August 01 2012 00:15 Eps wrote: Just a point of clarification. Phoenix are by no means "Glass-Cannons". Compare with the other Air Units. I didn't include Voidrays/Corruptors for obvious reasons as they're meant to take down Capital Ships. Banshees - 140 Vikings - 125 Mutalisk - 120 Phoenix - 120hp/60 Shields When you compare it with the other race's air-units, the Phoenix is actually pretty beefy. Also phoenixes become a lot less micro-intensive when compared to mutas. Not to mention the units they "have to use abilities on" can't hit back either. | ||

Yeah that's exactly what happened  Phoenix's were useless because they lost in straight up battles to any other air unit that could attack it back, so it was a poor unit to make in almost every circumstance. It was simply an air-to-air fighter that sucked at air-to-air, so Blizzard made it have a moving shot so that it had some sort of purpose or had some sort of advantage that it could use. | ||

So if you really think that the phoenix is broken and imbalanced for Protoss (LOL haven't heard that one until today) then please go to this thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=255254 I assume that all of you have thought through the following categories: Cause of Problem, Potential Solutions, Side Effects, and Examples to support your claim so making a quality post should be no problem! But be careful, posts like "Protoss players should have to micro, the phoenix is a joke" or "why do they even shoot like that" will not be well-received because they are not constructive in any fucking way nor do they even make sense (aka flame-bait). Happy posting! | ||
