PvP imo has been improved a fair bit so I'm not even that disappointed that the other races were knocked out

Are you crazy? Have you not seen the shit Terran can do with Widow Mines and Speedivacs? It's Protoss that are having a tough time early game in that matchup right now.


These things come in way too late, Toss seems to have a number of things that hit faster and harder.

Please say one besides proxy oracle. And btw, defending proxy oracle can be figured out ez pz. Mine and speedvacs are solid, and lethal in korean hands.


Not that I agree with the OP but blink stalker on certain maps is basically impossible to hold if u 1 rax Fe

Blink got nerfed another 30 seconds it takes 170 seconds IIRC. Also MsC has no detection anymore so 1 Widow Mine basically holds it. Well a couple.


It got nerfed again? I know it got nerfed during the beta patches but it still came faster and with more stalkers cuz u didn't need obs. But if they nerfed it again then yeah, I can see people holding it off.

If they wont build any voidray in the final it will be a balanced unit.

PvP is actually worse than it was in WoL. But I was a huge fan of WoL PvP so maybe not everyone will agree. Void Rays being so strong has really fucked up the matchup.

I see this as a mind games victory from White-Ra, he saw that Lucifron was far more tense than him and less than perfectly prepared to deal with early pressure and sealed the match by grabbing his throat from the beginning to the end of the game.
Well done indeed. You don't mess with the Beast.
White Ra makes me wanna play Protoss...

Void rays and oracles are decent!(collossus is still king) 1base all ins are more powerful thanks to mothership core. What more do we want from a pvp?

Well - I'd mix in a number of gateway + mothership core timings, more affordable DTs, classic 1-base robo all-ins, zealot archon etc. I don't know how strong they would be in korean hands but I think that I will be able to do much more with them than with the funky widow mine timings.

I just don't like the idea of burrowing a mine and than praying "come this way and don't split your units please!".

Well I meant the nerf they got in HotS. In WoL at some point it was nerfed 30 sec as well I think. But regardless I'm fairly certain it's now 170 seconds which is super long (Stim is what, 110?).

Actually Stim also seems to be 170, thus equally super long

At the start of the beta, people seemed rather disappointed. Did Blizz patch HotS successfully? Did the opinion of the players change?
