Terrans that drop PDD's usually do it right at the engagement point and the PDD's get drained or the opponent retreats out of them. All this nerf does is not let T use them to totally lock down a location for 3 minutes | ||

And I say this as a Z main who hates mech. The new swarm hosts are pretty cool, but can't imagine them being good vs protoss. Seems to me high level SH play required more skill than roach hydra viper every game. If that is their aim... | ||

I'm inclined to agree with the previous guys who said that Blizzard should do less buffing/nerfing and more tweaking | ||

It's not that I enjoyed watching SH games, but swinging the nerfbat so hard at them seems like a very poor decision. At best SH's role will change completely. What's more likely though, is that SH won't be used at all anymore. | ||

Which is a shame, because this will absolutely destroy late-game ZvP. Zerg will have to end the game with the first push or just die to deathball. wow that sounds REALLY familiar I mean it isn't like the other two races had to play this way against Zerg before...

Also, League gets patched for the better all the time. It's the pro-gamers job to adjust to changes which are positive for the game, not bitch and moan that their strategies that resulted in 3 hour stalemate games get nerfed. | ||

LoL is a vastly different game with a vastly different philosophy. | ||

Do you idiots understand that this is all YOUR FUCKING FAULT? That Blizzard did this only because you stupid whiny bitches who kept spouting nonsense about SH games being "not entertaining" enough for your useless little brains? Great, so now the game gets adapted to your majestic ADHD 5-minute attention span, because the average "fan" can't handle anything that goes on for more than that. God, this is so stupid. Anything, really ANYTHING interesting Blizzard comes up with is crushed into the ground by this " "community" of "experts" with "opinions". Everything that is not exactly the same boring shit again and again is either "inbalanced", "bad design" (lol at "design" in general anyway, it's just a buzzword every idiot nowadays uses to sound smart) or "boring" or "bad for the game". I can't really imagine Blizzard coming up with anything interesting for LoTV. They have been forced to give up on the only really radical change in HoTS, why would they even try anymore? They will probably just make BW in 3D to make the five people who still care about BW (but produce thousands of posts each) happy and everyone will go play a stupid MOBA or an even more stupid card game anyway. Everything nice gets destroyed by idiots. Real life has broken into SC2. Fuck you all. User was warned for this post | ||

Someone give this man a medal. 1 hour SH games are absolutely riveting and entertaining to watch for your casual fan of SC2. kek lel I'm glad this change went through. Should spice things up (I'm a Zerg player) and be fun to adapt to. As long as it fixes ZvT mech and make ZvP games shorter and more dynamic I don't really care. Because for me, dynamic games are a lot more fun than 1 hour SH games. But then again, what do I know compared to opisska? | ||

LOL it was boring and bad design and needs to just be removed from the game. Also vipers are really really really good in zvt and zvp try getting more then 2-3 more like 7-9 and figure it out then crying all day i bet you said the same when the infestor got changed come on if you really think that swarmhost was good for the game then theres no hope for you. | ||
