Interesting changes, I really struggle to see a reason for why they waited this long to at least test something. I'll certainly be playing a bit after finals. I like the egg nerf but I don't think it'll help all that much outside of a few niche engagements. Range reduction should help ghosts and vikings, seriously getting fungaled out of emp range just made your heart sink.

That wont help my 40% winrate vs. Protoss. Protoss will now only do unstoppable 3 base timings.

The extensive testing and quality of feedback we’ve received on the last two balance maps have allowed us to make this call


Umh.. i know, the incredibly usefull testing on 80hps egg that doesn't die from the storm, i can only guess how many datas blizz have collected about. And you know what, the only sensibile change it's not tested at all.. I know i know, politically correct is good, "power to the community, please help us, we want to hear your feedback bla bla" ...it's ok but please do it better.

Btw.. It's better than nothing. Still, Broodlings walls got more than 8 range and it's very hard to reach the range for Feedback\Emp. IT spam too can block the path.. I don't see the change we all want, i only see a candy for kids.

Because you don't need to spend 300 resources on an upgrade, ravens will suddenly become overpowered? What?

You don't have to spend 150/150 now. That's literally the only change.

what i meant is ravens will become the new infestors of late game :D

and the range nerf means fungalling them will get a lot harder

Loving the changes. Now mass HT may be viable against mass infestor which is a good enough solution for me.

No clue how useful the Raven change is though. Maybe slightly so in TvZ?

As far as I'm concerned 8 is still superior to 6, but maybe maths are different in your world?

The fungal range seems like it could make a little difference seeing that you can now snipe/feeback them and still be out of range of fungal
ok

good stuff, this will definitely make PvZ lategame a bit better since you can reliably storm the egg spam and fungal will be slightly less effective vs carrier/void ray compositions. Still wish they would make interceptors immune to fungal though.

Honestly I think it's going to be more than enough and it's far more than I expected them to do. After all small changes tend to have major effects over time. Colossi/HT pushes won't be able to be stopped so easily with infested terran spam so zerg players who mindlessly rush to BL tech behind spine forests every game will hopefully get punished while good zerg players will still be able to win with more aggressive dynamic play (as showcased by Life and Leenock).

I think this a huge but necessary change, well done !

But now colossus with range and 7gateimmortal push need to be change too.
I want to see hydra too, i hope we will see more. Maybe nerf broodlord and buff hydra (or hydra +2 for each upgrade?) and all will be nice.
