EPTBut great changes, I really like the creep one, definitely needed, players are spreading to the mid map before 15 minutes which is really ridiculous!

I really like the raven changes and always wished Terran would use them more and this will certainly make it easier to keep them alive and get more of their spells off where they want them. I don't really feel like the creep spread change is necessary though. The kind of creep spread they're talking about takes APM (however little) away from macro and other important things, so I feel that it much more rewards the faster players. The others simply just don't do it beyond their fourth base. And with the Raven change, it shouldn't be as hard to deny the creep tumors anyways. It's not they don't have three orbitals anyways. | ||

In what world have blizz been helping Terran? Every time a T figures out something powerful it gets nerfed to hell within a week. Thorzain's Thors, Blue flame, Ghost snipe, Ghost EMP, Bunker build time, rax before depot, stim research... the list goes on. | ||

Especially when after release we had things like close-spawn on Metalopolis which made playing like bitbybit super easy.

Honestly I'd trade my chronoboost for mules/scan.

Increased sight range would be interesting. | ||

The unit is too expensive and takes time you could use building medvacs/vikins, just to deny some creep. It would be better if it was actually useful in battle. | ||

Raven change sounds good, maybe will make Ravens too good against BL/infestor though? I just think of I think of a few instances where mass Raven is already super effective, but again not sure... | ||

First of all, all of us can agree that terran had the biggest advantage out of the three races. Next, it was a terran expansion after all. Kinda obvious most people would choose terrans. Third, terran is the most similar to their counterpart brood war. The players saw this similarity and stuck to it. I also want to mention the fact that terran was the most simple race but had a lot of micro potential. (i.e splitting marines) there are games where people won just by splitting marines for goodness sake... if there were zerg or even protoss units that could have done to that extent to even win using one unit, im pretty sure we would have seen a near even amout of all three races. Doesn't really matter what the reasons are. The point is that there are a lot of really good Terran players, and there appear to be slightly more of them than there are really good Toss or Zerg players. Ergo, it sort of makes sense that Terran will be somewhat overrepresented no matter what the state of balance is, because there are more top flight players to begin with. I'd be all for giving Zerg some micro oriented options, but it would mean nerfing their macro mechanic pretty hard. | ||

The creep change is good, Zerg already has too easy of a time spreading creep in zvt and zvp. However, once again Blizzard does not address the real issue...Broodlord/Infestor is too strong. | ||

I would consider having creep recede faster instead of spread slower, but I'm sure they considered both options. I like this a lot eitherway. Yes I can see how this patch helps you a lot in your next televised TvZ User was warned for this post | ||
