Blizzard should know what they are doing and what the game needs. The problem is, they don't. You can give ideas to Blizzard without them asking, that is okay. Ok, fair enough. It is a consistent argument. | ||

This is true, the Adept and PO needed a nerf. It just would have been nice to get a buff for Protoss that would help them mid-game against Zerg and Terran so we don't have to suffer with lousy win rates for awhile. It is just something you learn in grade school. If you take weight off one side of a balanced scale, you have to take weight off the other, or it isn't balanced. | ||

Because the game was so easy for Zerg when it first came out that they became greedy and complacent. Meanwhile Protoss were having a really hard time and have been working really hard to find new ways to win. This will balance out, honestly. They'll have to control their Lurkers better, for instance, rather than just YOLOing them into the Protoss. | ||

Say Mech is so strategic because it's positionning. When you manage to catch them offguard while they're traveling map : They whine, says mech is not enought mobile, or the map is bad so they force to turtle : So they just want to take abusive position, and the others can't deny them to take this position.... When you use air units like mutas to counter the tank that outrange every zerg units on the ground, they whine Mech isn't great enough vs air, need stronger AA. When you build multiple slow units, come from different angle to clean tank, and minimize AOE : They whine tank dmg isn't high enough, they need stronger tank that deal more dmg and "zone" the others units (meaning they want a sieged tank creates a no man's land around it where every enemy units is crushed). When they turtle, during HOTS, their is no other way than slowly killing them with thousands wave of SH. They want remove SH, cause boring game because of SH, while they're the turtling guys and the Zerg just react to their style, while they can play bio and avoid this... All they really want is build tanks, siege them, then the others can't do nothing so they win the game.... | ||

BW: Templar and Reavers shut down an entire tech tree (bio) and T is forced to mech = great game SC2: Vipers and Immortals make it difficult to mass only factory units and T is forced to bio = shit game If you buffed the tank and made AA from the factory stronger there would be literally no way to kill mech. | ||

Players would just need to adapt and don't amove into 20 siege tanks like they currently do. they would have to harass everywhere, force the mech player to spread himself out, then when he's spread out you can start trading. with him, over and over again, keeping his tank count low, meanwhile outexpanding him so you are allowed to trade slightly inefficiently. Then when he's trying to attack he has to keep a part of his army at home and you can with a good surround beat his army. Watch any high level bio vs mech HotS game to see how you are supposed to play vs tanks that actually scare your army away. | ||

If mech was buffed to the level that people want, received better AA options, etc. then it would obviously be OP. | ||

Would it be OP? Or would it be finally even with Bio as am option? If anything Bio is the OP thing. It counters everything and has no major weakness. You can say AOE but that doesn't really stop people staying with Bio until they lose or win. | ||

I think MSC's, should start with 50 energy. A lot of early game all-ins just beat toss straight up, I think 50 energy is correct for photon overcharge but I also think toss should have the ability to use it right away if necessary. Remember, if the first 50 energy is used, the attacking player can just back off or do a run by and wait until it's over and toss has to build 50 energy again which takes awhile. I don't think Zerg is weak at all, I think Zerg's strongest unit is the Lurker and isn't being abused correctly yet. | ||

To be honest is only the people that DON'T want make that go "OMG THEY WOULD NEED SUCH BIG BUFF SO OP TURTLE" Most mech players simply go "well a small change here or there and then go from there would be nice" | ||
