..They should let infestor broodlord maintain its current state because another race was imba for a longer time? That's like letting black people enslave white people for a few years to make up for slavery in the US. You should try to reach a balance, not just periodically let one race be imba imba to make up for other balance mistakes. Also almost every code a interview had the players complaining about balance, even Nestea. Sometimes I think people like you just want to cry about anything they can. Infestors have not been buffed to all the sudden make them "op" People who are not pros, watch the GSL and see a certain thing win, then crawl back to the forums and state its "oP"....when the real fact is, it has not effect on people below gm, or even people in GM, because they lose due to their own skill lvl not a unit. Zergs were losing often and least represented in the GSL last year......infestor was the same back then, as it is now.........mmm what can it be??? o ya, Pros get better and the skill cap increases, they learned to use a certain unit combo well, and that makes it op??? come on now. Yeah. sometimes I think people do like to cry about anything they can. Infestor was buffed, as fungal now has way more dps -- enough to rip apart marines. The old fungal never did that. And just because players got better, doesn't mean anything can't not be imbalanced. The fact was, it could have been imbalanced the entire time until players learned how to use it correctly. Come on now.
Stop trolling. or if you are srsr, did you just start playing sc2? infestors have never been buffed, I'm not sure what game u are playing.....the last balance of infestor nerfed the fungal dmg and the range of NP....Bad troll is Bad
The old fungal back in the day, did more dmg, and people use to NP everything with its long range, Blizzard did the correct thing, nerfed fungal dmg and pretty much removed NP from the game.......now all the sudden people cry about something just because they see Korean Zergs doing well all the sudden??? please.

Without fungal they are pretty much unstoppable.
without fungal? the suggestion is turning it into a projectile not removal of it. The problem with fungal is that it is NOT dodgeable and once it lands you cant micro afterward either....emp is virtually undodgeable but you can do splits, blink, micro in some form afterwards, storm is a little slower...much stronger, and you can still micro after its cast. Fungal you cant micro before OR after. This change would allow some form of counter micro which is good. right now its fungal range lock down chain death...very boring

Sorry but when did YOU start playing SC2? Fungal was buffed way way back then to help with blink stalkers + void rays. Not to mention they got the ability to cast IT while burrowed.

It's a good thing, but if the speed of the projectile is what it is in that youtube video posted, I think it would be a bit too easy to micro against it for pros. Especially with blink stalker all-ins, when all of the concentration is on the army. There's no need to try to twist what I'm saying. So I guess they have to balance it according to the speed of the animation of the projection?
Any change that leaves the ability to micro after being fungalled is good in my eyes it doesn't just have to be a projectile just making it a slow or allowing spells to be used whilst being fungalled ( these are just random ideas). But having it a projectile might mean that it's a good thing to flank with infestors and stuff like that making burrowed infestors flanking armies a lot more fun to watch than 1-a- f click- f click- f click.

But the real kicker, the change that wasn't reverted on patch 1.4 was the reduction in Fungal Growth's duration. effectively increasing it's DPS by applying it's damage twice as fast.
1.0 fungal, 36 dmg over 8s: 4.5 dps 1.4 fungal, 30 dmg over 4s: 7.5 dps
Nah, the infestor was never touched, and the account made 10 days ago with 22 posts calls me a troll.

Make fungal a projectile and nerf infested terrans in some way. Lowering their DPS and/or upping the energy cost would be good.

Great to see Blizzard finally making some positive changes to SC2 the past few weeks. Hopefully we will see some major nerfs to the Infestor after BWC and this game might be going somewhere.

People are just too keen on looking on the presence, rather than trying to develop new ways to approach the game, not just like P are doing constantly, making new goals to do the same thing as different timings. Z started to play differently, so P and T should as well
no there is actually just no response for protoss to beat infestor broodlord other then praying for a nice vortex. vs terran infestor broodlord is also very hard to stop but i do admit ravens with seeker missle can be strong if you can get to that point. I think the main issue is that you build infestors in order to counter everything in the game and that is not good game design.

They waited 6 months so they could nerf it into the ground and undo all the patience they put into approaching this as sensitively as possible? Get over it.

I run in to a lot of Zergs on ladder, when asked will say that they think ZvT is way too easy atm. I also personally have a friend who doesnt play anymore because infestor ---> BL is so ungodly boring. It's gotten to the point where all but the most desperate of Zerg players knows that the Infestor is way too strong.

Sort of agree, there are changes/optimizations necessary as the game became rather stale. And fungal too universally applicable for that matter.

You can't please everybody and you can't stop them from voicing their opinions. The only thing you can do is try to see through the QQ and enjoy starcraft for what is really is, a game.
