Well, I predict more spellcasting terran units shall be made in TvZ. Which usually means more fun for everyone.

Allowing for counterplay is definitely the better route for fixing infestors rather than reducing their raw power. I think introducing a projectile for fungal would have been just as good as reducing the range, but either way, this should let the things that are supposed to be dealing with the infestors actually do so, rather than infestors being the best answer to the things which supposedly answer them.

While I don't mind the Raven change, I wonder if making autoturrets actually worth placing would have been a more interesting fix.

Thank god zerg is nerfed.

Now this change would distinguish the top-tier zergs and the " patch zergs ".

Play your best

Eh, this isn't is a fraction of what is required to start distinguishing "patch Zergs".

when they increased the immortal range many people said "its not gonna effect the game at all" but it did.

now people say fungal range change is not gonna be a big change but I say we will see.

the fungal range nerf is the biggest deal.
Feedback and snipe out ranging fungals make a lot of sense.
Fungal was way too strong to be on par with single target counter measures.

I'm really curious how this will play out.

This is a step in the right directions. Sure, some might feel like the Infestor wasn't hit hard enough.

However, I'm an optimist and I'll say that I'll definitely take my egg health reduction and Fungal range reduction. I'm willing to try this change out and see if Zerg still feels too strong.

I seem to recall QXC mentioning that one of the major issues with tvz ravens is the fact that it requires so long to transition into them with all the upgrades. I hope we'll be seeing much more ravens in the matchup now.

Overall these feel kinda good changes although I still feel fungal is kind of a lame spell. I guess we'll just have to wait and see where it goes from here.

The problem with ravens is more that they have so little energy and it takes ages to build up, and 1 or 2 ravens isn't gonna make the difference lategame, you need atleast 5.


Thats exactly the problem on ravens. It's not like the HSM upgrade was inaccessible, the energy buildup time plus the energy cost of HSM made ravens pretty inefficient. You have to plan away ahead, when you are investing in ravens. You need to survive for 3-4 minutes before ravens become effective.
I feel it would have been better to simply increase the starting energy of ravens or reduce the cost of HSM rather removing HSM upgrade.


Yep, the raven change like everyone has said previously...it achieves nothing. The only impactful change this patch is -1 fungal range, and it's highly doubtful that is enough.

Should be a pretty decent patch, I just hope they don't do to fungal what they do to neural parasite. Just a decoration spell now because of the trash range. We'll see.
You mean I just write stuff here and other people can see it?

A step in the right direction. The lings of liberty post really turned me on to why when I'm tired and watching GSL vods now I don't watch them, just skip. The hype and micro and multitasking has died from 2011.

Hopefully, this is a step in the right direction, and if it doesn't accomplish it's goal blizz, you better keep going,

decent upgrade but i'm still not convinced this is enough of a nerf. Fungal just does too much damage too easily, usually it's not an issue of the investors being too far away, but i'll give it a chance to play out before i make a conclusion.

blizzard just refuses to try and acutally fix infestors, how is that they are willing to give zerg massive buffs like the queen but when it comes time to nerf infested terrans and fungal they settle on this crap
