I'm glad to see Blizzard isn't doing anything drastic. The matchups seem fairly balanced so far in HoTS. | ||

They are talking about QUEEN BUFF TO ANTI-AIR attack. It will not change anything to TvZ matchup, because there is no biological air at Terran side. | ||

I never thought they would have managed to get the balance right right off the bat. I mean, remember when roaches cost 1 supply and had +1 range? Remember when they buffed the infestor ( its been nerfed twice since then )? I knew it would take time to iron it out and I was prepared to wait. They were still releasing balance patches for brood war what was it 7-8 years later? They just released a major expansion, and they think they nailed on the first try? Really? Did they not outline a bunch of balance issues they were seeing about a month ago? To me it just seems really obvious that zerg drew the short end of the stick. Terrans got 2 AMAZING new units in the hellbat with ridiculous hp, splash damage and even healing capability. They got the mine which is so good the entire zvt meta game revolves around it. Zerg was given the viper which to be fair is awesome against mech, but i would play vs mech without vipers over biomine any day of the week. The viper doesn't really have a use vs biomine. All this means is that mech tvz is dead, making for an even more stale meta game. Biomine isnt just the best option, its the only option. That means that in the tvz meta game right now, terran has a bunch of new toys, mines, hellbats and turbovacs, all of which play very well together, and zerg has a slightly better ultra, and lets not forget that drops are a lot harder to deal with when youre on ultra tech, and even more so now with the boost. The viper, hydra and swarm host do not work vs biomine. Am I missing something, because I sure as hell dont understand what happened or how its supposed to be fair or balanced. It feels like zerg has a lot of cool new stuff that would work great in wol zvt, but is pretty useless in hots. Terran just straight up does better vs zergs staple ling bling muta, a LOT better, and zergs still have no alternative unit composition. Infestors do OK vs mines, but not vs medevacs. | ||

This is core problem we've been dealing with since the very beginning, the way they approach their game and balance design "Lets try this and see what happens" a hobo off the street can design/balance a game using that process. im pretty confident certain members of this community could have this game balanced in a weekend yet alone 6 years or however long its been. blizzard + 1 Uhm, time to learn a bit history, a lot of things were trial an error...i bet a lot of the first engines literally exploded. And you are soo underestimating balancing its not even funny. If the community would get even a hand in balancing it would be a trainwreck beyond belief. | ||
