Ultimately, I think some of the changes to Terran and Zerg are bulls*** overpowered. And I LOVE it. I want them to start off with all kinds of bulls*** OP crap so we can see how crazy things can get.

Which is why I'm disappointed at the Protoss changes. They don't seem anywhere near as bulls*** OP as the Terran and Zerg changes, and I WANT them to be.

I'm a Terran Player BTW.
You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88

Seriously. This is freaking awesome! Every single change mentioned is incredible! I have been playing since broodwar and I thought LOTV was just going to bring 1 unit to each race but damn I was wrong! Blizzard seems like they really want to bring this game back to the forefront of Esports! 12 starting workers! That is sick! Lets face it ladies and gents the first 5-6mins of EVERY game sucked ass. Hell, even the announcers have a hard time making those first minutes entertaining because its just eco building. . . . and the fact that it only takes 12 to saturate a base! F**** sweet! SC2 is going to consist of quick skirmishes instead of these massive A-move battles. Late game battles should be earned and not be apart of the norm. Blizz nailed it again with the units announcements! Micro is the name of the game. hellz yes. Again, this A-move stuff makes current sc2 just a game of numbers. I love the thought of smaller squads taking on larger ones and winning because of strategy. It seems like blizz wants to make every unit playable withing their prospective races. battlecrusiers, carriers and finally corrupter are F***ing useful! That BC warp ability is sick nasty and I can't stand terran! lol. I hope to Zeratul If Blizzard keeps anything from these proposed changes it is the change to the economy system. That only would make SC2 a much exciting game. It appeals to both casual and hardcore players alike. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HYPED!

some great changes. a lot of lols changes but dont think these are gonna make it in anyways.

blizzard is notorious for designing units from an aesthetic/'fun' point of view first and then balancing from there through betas so whatever.

really hope the campaign is hard this time. brutal hots was such a joke

Bro, there are bigger changes than just new units

How about that 12 starting worker and 1000 per mineral patch. That is going to fuck the 3 base meta for sure.


5 base meta incoming.


And everyone whines because games are long, stale and boring.

If you watched the videos, you couldnt say this. It is very obvious they realize these kind of games are bad and added several options to all races to end the stalemate in an instant. Warping BCs? Tempests DoT? Zergs with invincible nyduses? etc etc


The three changes that will disappear once the videos have been seen by anyone in charge with a brain. But I can understand where they are going, it doesn't seem a bad idea, but this will have to be made very carefully. If it's too hard to ever get 4-5 bases most games will be played 2-3 bases all-in.


and if its to easy to get 4-5 bases we will see 1 hour turtle into deathball every game.
we already have a perfectly working economy system, no reason to change it and possibly break the game


I'm like you, I hate change in general and I didn't feel SC2 was in need of that kind of change. I'm especially worried for P that already has trouble maintaining 4 bases and won't be a lot more mobile in LotV (and overcharge doesn't hit air units any more, lol, medivacs now have free reign on the P base until you have blink). But this could end up being great, so I'm not set on those ideas.

The unkillable nydus should just get a free HP upgrade when you get a hive. That's enough to make it stoppable early-midgame and still a surprise harass threat mid-lategame, but definitely not OP or unkillable.


And the swarm hosts? Just freaking remove them already. They're an awful unit and lurkers are much more interesting.



Spawn time is much longer, so it won't be broken. Settle down and stop acting like a 7 year old.

Spawn time is not the issue. Problem is that whatever comes out will definitely be enough to overrun the protoss if he can't stop it in time.



Huh? If Zerg can only make a handful and they only spawn every 45 seconds, how would you die to like 20 locusts?

They made it pretty clear mass swarm hosts would not be viable anymore...

You have literally never used the unit or seen how they work. We have no stats on the new locus or any other information to go on.

We know nothing. Slow your roll, it will all be ok.

That's how BW worked.

Though they might have to reduce the cost and build time of cc/hatch/nexus to balance these changes.


It worked for BW because there was no infinite units selection and also other game engine-specific limitations

Well, P will just produce directly produce the proper counter to mech on the spot, namely tempests + carriers.

Broken shit is fine, as long as you can get out of the way and see it coming. I would rather there be tons of exciting broken shit than everything being super safe and dull.

I watched the videos again. That sounds like a lot of fun (: only things that are imo more or less bullshit are the Cyclone which looks op as fuck, and the colossus still being there despite the addition of the Disruptor. No need for P to have 2 different robo AoE units. Also it would have been nice to see the Corruptor become an actually microable and fun to play unit instead of a VR on steroids, but well

Seems like LotV Lurker may be similar to the WoL Lurker that they cut just prior to the WoL beta. Both are long-range siege units that outrange base defenses. I dunno about the other stats though. WoL Lurker did bonus against armored, so it was kinda Siege Tank-like.
