Protoss is not underperforming in Korea.

David Kim got the wrong impression.

Here is the Korean winrate since release

would like to see that they buff the speed but decrease the hitpoints.
and the speedupgrade would change into healthupgrade, so they can fly over turrets, sth like that.
yo twitch, as long as I can watch 480p lagfree I'm happy

That would make scouting too easy, but they could lower 200/200 for drops.


??? am i wrong ? as far as i know overlords did get an speed buff O_o so its even talked/balanced about

Quite, many zergs never noticed the overlords got a speed buff a while ago, and the upgrade was moved out of lair tech. And mutas go faster. And that creep is a thing that exists.

Seriously, people love to freak out about stuff that ruins their ability to sit back and macro up to 200/200.

Oh my god please make it happen. The only downside I can see to this is I tend to use early warp prism vs T to great effect, with this buff every Terran will be expecting WP harass, but to be fair that buff is just so juicy I won't care :D Can't see it happening (a faster WP maybe, but not the same as the upgraded speed) but if it does it'll be like christmas.

I agree for the most part. Things like siege for free makes defense too easy for my liking. But after giving the boost to medivacs, it gives them the ability to be much faster than even speed prisms right from the start. Why not make that a researchable ability as well? If you want to keep speedivacs for free, it's only sensible to make the much less used warp prism have the same average speed to start with.

thanks for posting the winrates again, this buff is aimed at starcraft in an alternate universe apparently

the proleague stats are even worse where zerg has around 40% winrate in BOTH matchups rofl

I think that David Kim and Blizzard might have that data or maybe even slightly better data. After all, they do own the game and the servers the game is played on. But I am sure there will be people compiling their own evidence that Protoss are just fine.

I wrote my reply on page 3 of official forums. Needless to say, it's a terrible idea until they balance out TvP early game.

I think its good, promotes more warpprism play and that is good. It's good if it doesn't make things imbalanced basically.

You mean the league where the map is known before hand and everything is a best of 1? The leauge were teams specifically choose players to snipe other players on specific maps? Also its the league with totally messed up, weird maps that are not in the ladder pool?

I'm more than ok with boost being an upgrade, it would stop the hellbats drop opening madness. Same goes for mutas, the regen should be a researchable ability.

unless blizzard is taking ladder stats for balance reasoning, I don't see how they would have better data than this. GSL code A and S GSTL SPL, all the major kr tournament results are not good enough for you to look at the current balance?

I agree with this, removing this from game should be last option, when tweaking isnt enough.

I think Blizzard is following the philosophy that they want every race to have strong, potentiall imbalanced options rather than having every race equally weak.

Medivac got faster and it is really strong now, rather than nerf the medivac lets buff the warp prism.
I don't know how this will work out but I like the philosophy and it should really add excitement.
warp prism harass is one of the most exciting this you can see from a protoss imo

My first reaction was that they will be way too fast... but that was my first reaction to Speedvacs too. I still hate dealing with them, but it's completely doable. Just frustrating. If this goes through I'm sure people will have the same reaction to Prisms.

I'm very sure. WCS is not the whole scene. These charts include much more than WCS.

Ya my main problem right now is that while this will probably be more fun when I'm watching SC2, it's starting to look like a vicious cycle (terran gets buffed, so toss gets buffed so zerg gets buffed, so terran...etc) that's ending with a series of tech that's too good for the relatively quick time that it comes out.

As a player whose far from amazing it's just overwhelming.
