You can have 10 games that fit inside this bubble where things are fun and cool, but have 100 games all outside the bubble, where things aren't so cool. | ||

Change siege tank damage from 35+15 to 41+15. Change siege tank attack upgrades from 3+2 for each upgrade to 2+3 for each upgrade. Reasoning, with this buff tanks would take 1 shot to kill some P/Z units (1 less shot to kill stalkers, adepts, zealots, roaches, ravagers) and 2 shots less to kill archons. At the same time it would take the same amount of shots to kill bio units (marines and marauder) and the interactions stay the same compared to actual siege tank with same upgrade. Also it would take the same amount of shots to kill an immortal. Once fully upgraded the tank retains somewhat the same strenght also. A small change that its not too strong but goes a long way to help siege tanks and mech, specially early game. | ||

Protoss can just mass adepts and you are forced to turtle to mass libs/mass wm. adepts are supremely cost-effective against all low tier units of terran. Just watch alive vs classic where classic played with an adept monocomposition 10 minutes into the game and won. | ||

By "trade cost efficiently" you mean that marines will still be raped but not as fast. I see. | ||

Um... this is like the entirety of the protoss side of life from WoL => HotS Terran spams bio Protoss needs T3 Now it is switched and people cry that there is a problem? | ||

- PB nerf is ridiculous. The spell is so badly designed they already are on the path no nerf hammer it until no one can use it. - overcharge nerf : still a terrible designed spell that's nerfed because it's not viable. - don't care much for the spore nerf STILL NOTHING ABOUT - thor AA - liberator AG - retarded disruptor - ravager - tankivac ("in TvT and TvZ"... okay DK you finally clearly stated we're not supposed to build tanks in TvP, thanks.) - thor AA - viper/corru/BL deathball - 8 armor ultra I'm seriously asking myself if DK and his team are lord of the ring's ents. We've litterally seen NO changes for a few months. So much for community feedback. Seed's interview was the wake up call, so blizzard got scared people won't buy the mission packs, so they cut DK's 3 months vacations. | ||

Marines only need the stim/shield/medivac because the opponent's have been fielding blink/charge/speed or more expensive, often very specific anti-marine units against terran. Adept's are good from the beginning because all the starting units are light. The moment you start fielding armored units (roaches, stalkers) they become quite weak. They also require an upgrade to keep up. Terran is just out of luck in that regard because blizzard never fixed the oracle which means you cannot open with marauders, so you have to pretend you lack a brain and build marines despite knowing adepts are coming. | ||

By trade cost efficiently I mean 2 marines will be able to kill an adept almost and 3 will be able to kill one with ease, 1 adept costs 100 minerals 25 gas, so lets say that's ~150 minerals that are 3 marines because gas is more valuable then minerals. So yea at that point mass marine will trade cost efficiently with something that is supposed to hard counter it. | ||

So yea at that point mass marine will trade cost efficiently with something that is supposed to hard counter it. I don't think that is true. I've played around with a test map with these customized adepts and they still countered marines pretty well as far as I recall. I surely can't tell you about all scenarios (low amounts, high amounts, all upgrade variations), but note that with 1/1 vs 1/1 to 3/3 vs 3/3 there is hardly any change at all, since adepts upgrade with +1(+1 vs light) and thereby reinstate any pre-nerf shot relations unless the terran is ahead in armor upgrades. And even that only works until +2 is done for the protoss. | ||
