I really do wonder which feedback they are looking into and which they just read and then completely ignore from the top players.. too many changes at once create chaos and blizzard is not able to tell what is causing the problems then.  | ||

I personally am quite happy at where it is at except terran could need some more buff for fun factor | ||

1998-2010: starcraft is played on fastest. 3rd party software measure APM through correcting the in-game time (measured on normal speed) to fastest. 2010: 2015: starcraft2 is played on faster. Blizzard catches up on people caring about APM, and now shows it after games, but as if the game was played on normal speed. Blizzard APM is off. 3rd party software correct APM to be displayed accurately for faster. end of 2015: After 5 years, blizzard patches the APM after games, displaying actual APM in faster mode. After a total of 17 years, blizzard now shows the APM in "faster" minutes, where the game is actually played. januray 2016: After the APM has finally caught up to the game being played on faster, blizzard now considers changing game speed from faster to normal. | ||

Good to see that people still focus on the MOST IMPORTANT things in the game | ||

In the first 2-3 weeks of LotV post-release, I was pretty surprised to hear that photon overcharge is only 25 energy - I always assumed it was 50 energy. However, you really need to look deeper into this matchup and you'll see how absurd it actually is. Having 25 energy photon overcharge allows you to get an extremely quick 3rd, yet even with such an early 3rd for Protoss - how in the hell does it make sense that lategame is so favored for Terran? Intuitively, you would think that the game should be about one race trying to prevent the other, macro oriented race from reaching their ideal unit composition - but in PvT, there is no ideal unit composition. Take away the cheap photon overcharge and assuming Protoss doesn't do warp prism/adepts, Protoss really don't have much of a chance in this matchup. Biggest mistake Blizzard did was to nerf Colossus in LotV. Give Protoss back HotS Colossus and nerfing photon overcharge and potentially nerfing warp prism/adepts strategy and Protoss may actually start to have a chance. Don't just simply nerf photon overcharge (without considering all the other aspects of the matchup as a whole) and make a helpless Protoss situation into an even more helpless situation | ||

Please in future contribute something with more substance. Sorry you feel that way, but not every Zerg unit needs to be useful in every possible scenario. The very concept of faster banelings is disrespectful to players that have practiced splitting and microing vs them for years.. "Ok you're microing too well, we need to make it harder" is basically what you are advocating for if you support "faster banelings" | ||

For game speed and laddering. That's horrible idea because it will make it problematic for players to adapt. Faster is in my opinion fast enough. If they want to help newer players maybe make game slower in unranked mode? | ||

Also would be really hard for people who get used to faster in gold then get promoted to plat. | ||

I have to strongly disagree. In korea banelings don't work versus good terrans with medivac tanks. | ||

Medivac/tank is way worse vs banelings than WM, people don't make banelings because they rather use the gas in things like ultras/ravagers/vipers etc. Not because they are weak. | ||

I don't know. I have to strongly disagree. My personal opinion is much like that of David Kim who thinks it is a possibility to buff banelings. We all have different opinions and I like mine  | ||

Then, time to pop in and say "looks like you nubs finally figured out how to play." Kim has the greatest job: if the numbers show imbalance, well, need more time, obviously; if numbers are close to 50%, well, pat on the back to self. The lack of objectivity and authority from more knowledgeable people makes this game impossible to be optimistic about. In my opinion I strongly disagree. Game is young and needs time. Looking at korea I am very optimistic about future of balance. All protoss and terran currently win in GSL. Yesterday 2x ZvT and both time Terran won despite zerg being favorite. I remember in the beginning in LOTV when Zerg was by far the worst race ever in existence. Then Zerg heroes Fruitdealer and Nestea emerged. They showed us the way. We zerg players practiced hard and adapted and this is why we have a thick skin now and look like strong monsters. In time Protoss will adept. They had an easy time and now they need to train a bit more. It is all good | ||
