EPTThe problem is that they buffed Zerg early game but then didn't do anything for T late game and that's really the issue. All they had to do was make snipe + damage to massive and we'd probably be back in a pretty good TvZ place.

The news about maps is very good, though I hope that mapmakers get away from giving a ton of hidey spots for overlords on every map. | ||

It's almost always gonna be better (except in ZvZ i guess) to just get melee upgrades | ||

In all seriousness, I am glad they are redoing the map pool in HOTS, some of the current maps are pretty terrible. Hopefully they change up the WOL pool to send it off but I doubt that will happen. | ||

Wondering how the infested terran change will change the game. | ||

I know these are small steps, but still if Blizzard shows that they can listen to the community more and react to the feedback we're giving them, then these are steps that are going in the right direction. Next update let's hope they fix custom games (Arcade e.e..) | ||

Why don't they just remove to root on fungal.. They keep nerfing the infester piece by piece, but they don't seem to want to give anything back to replace it They could of changed fungal to a slow that prevents things like blink...and it would of solved a lot of problems outright. That or given some love to lesser used units like the hydra (things as simple as the speed upgrade which is in hots) and then they could of done what they wished with the infestor a lot earlier. That aside my only 'concern' would be they go overboard and make fungal or IT's as useless as NP became when they nerfd it into the ground when Ling/Infestor ZvP was popular. Map bit was a good thing to hear though after the terrible season 1 map choices/showings | ||

What do you mean? This patch is trying to address the fact the infested terran span from 20+ infestors is way too strong in ZvP as well as ZvT when terran is meching. | ||
