If hots release widow mines were "balanced" once Zergs figured out how to play agaisnt them (last month of those mines was 50.3% winrate in favor of Zerg I think). Then how the hell is Zerg supposed to win with buffed tanks AND hellbats in addition? | ||

I mean, prioritizing air over ground could create some interesting opportunities. Not that I imagine it would be common, or even that successful, but there are probably some things that could come about from the more creative pros. | ||

When you're not able to understand hyperbole, you really shouldn't make idiotic arguments. He's exaggerating when he says that they're winning everything, but what he means is that Protoss is having an abnormally large amount of success for the past 6+ months, which is undeniable. Btw, Protoss sweeping WCS might be relevant to your argument because it counters it. | ||

Don't Thors prioritise actual threats first thus the overlords won't get targeted? | ||

The mine changes seems a bit strong tho. Unless Im reading it wrong its basically reverting it back to what WM was on release + shield damage buff? Seems strong. WM in TvZ was strong but fun to watch, since zergs were running suicide bomber lings ala DT drops on spider mines in BW, but for TvP as long as it stops the stupid Blink strats properly again I think it should be fine already. Still, the fact that this game used to rape my laptop up and down doesnt change the fact that I wont be playing for the fear of my poor laptop >_> | ||

magic damage that high burst in that quantity really makes upgrades less impactful, it makes economy less impactful.. id like the widow mine a lot better if it wasn't spell damage, it would be a lot more interesting if you could actually upgrade out of 1-2 hit kill zone in aoe, much like every other aoe in the game that don't cost mana. | ||

I'm not sure, I was only Zerg for one season and I'm horrible to begin with. But we'll see - it would be interesting to see if something like that could be done. Or maybe they could make the payload options worthwhile. Rarely ever see someone switch between AoE and Single Target on the air attack. (Going full Goliath upgrade for "air and ground fire at the same time" would be a bit much, but it would be fun as a terran.) | ||
