Should have asked him about Colossi during the "boring units" question.

"Blizzard is aware of the restrictions on map design caused by the Stephano Roach style, but doesn’t think it can/will be fixed in WoL, will work on for HotS" geeez they dont seem to understand why map restrictions are how they are nowadays. its not about a specific playstyle XY, its about the race design around FF/tight choke/easy accessible 3rd because gateway units suck because of warpin....

it's pretty common sense that zerg has a lot of usable pieces and other races don't have the variety of units that zerg has.


Zerg has a variety of unit ? Roach hydra and muta and almost useless against a decent terran, and against toss, roach are usefull the first 10min of the game, lingz got depop almost instant aganist colossi or ht, hydra, well you know how hydra are usefull and muta are not viable, if you nerf infest what's left for ZvP ?

I mean, monk brought up the Infestor as his example.
Since it's getting nerfed anyways, it's time to switch our QQ stream to the Colossus. Just because the Infestor is getting nerfed, doesn't mean I'm finished QQing

If all the other races are so dumb, maybe you could enlighten us about how we can fight the infestor better? I think you would be surprised if you tried playing terran and protoss for a game or 20 each.

On a different note I think some puctuation would do your text good!
. .
Ok the Amin thing that differs between races that makes other races dumb is that they don't have the mental stability to just figure out what to do when they have. The ability that the races have to Harrass and expand and just build an army is substantial to what Zerg can only do they can ONLY rather all in or expand and go to the late game they can't harass they can't lost a BASE!!!!! And still win what Terran can do : go marine murader drops with expos and building a good army of tanks and bio with vicking if you see Burt lords , and o shit doesn't Terran have a spell caster that can do emp and take away all energy from and spell caster o shit why don't they use this and then the bio and tanks and Vikings can't get fungled ooh look at that !!!!!!! And or right now Thor vicking is one o the best compositions you can do Protos: first thing wasn't the bwc finals 2 Protoss wow look at that and they don't need and thing the have the best units and they use them but don't use them to the fullest blink stalkers are the most bull shit unit every I never knew they were able to turn into immortals when they get blink and the do a shit ton of damage also if proposes are complaining about getting neural end and then vortex is gone don't be a dumb ass and send the mother ship to the front of your army they had more range than neural and it's a automatic spell no delay like neural And there you go and that's what you can do !!!!!!!!! : also Protoss can just have 8-12 hightemplar and mass storm any army will just melt and o look high Templar also has a spell that can actually kill infestors and and are better range than infestors so I don't know why you all complain and bitch I'm sick of hearing this bitching

So when all your infestors get emped because there in a big clump when new patch hits can we say lol your bad split infestors noob? wtf zerg INTIRE RACE OF PLAYERS SUCK OMG instead of saying how great you and other zergs are open your mind to the REAL game if you cant see whats going on then you should be forced to play TVZ until your eyes bleed

There's no problem with that cause terrains are just not smart enough to use the unit that counters the main unit they are losing to they just cry overpowered over powered instead of doing what zeros do and just adapt to whatever comes there way

They did and in Korea terrans aren't struggling and NA ther are. They said the difference between foreign and Korean terrans is big so it's hard to balance because you make terrans easier for foreigners then Korean terrans will dominate like before. He made a really good point that foreign terrans will hate but it was very true

"Will redesign Mothership so it won’t be a serious unit used in professional esports play"

Sorry if I missed this already, what the heck is the meaning of this?

Give me my arbiter back, or give the oracle some useful abiilities, god damn.

I really don't know how anyone could disagree or be upset with his stance. I wouldn't make all his same decisions but... that's why he's him and I'm me. I think he's a smart guy and does a pretty darn good job.

I feel like this is actually a good point, which I'm assuming most people didn't notice/it got drowned out in all the balance complaints. If they feel neural on mothership is a problem, and are willing to get rid of neural because of it, yet are changing the mothership to not be a competitive unit, why the fuck would they even think of getting rid of neural?

I guess you missed all the interviews with korean terrans saying how they cant win vs zerg anymore. Do you actually think that foreigner zerg and protoss are just so much more skilled than foreigner terran?

Are you actually going to insinuate that a nerf to the infestor would render it entirely unuseable -- let alone that zerg has no effective units against Protoss? It's amazing how your strawman Protoss seemingly have all the answers to every unit 100% of the time.

I haven't read every single post, but I would like to chime in that I love this article and interview. The changes and philosophy behind them all exhibit serious thought and care for the game. I can't wait to play the PTR maps for these changes to see what happens.

As always, a great game continuously being made better by a company that cares. Awesome.
