Now everybody will notice how weak lotv protoss is. Without the economic lead PO and Adepts were giving, liberayors and ravagers will demolish protoss.



People like you are just beyond ignorant to the state of the game if you think LotV protoss is weak.

Ok smart guy, let's wait for it ok? Remember my words and your words. I'm telling you, protoss is doing ok because of MACRO advantage. The adepts menace (requires cyclone and viking/lib) early on, and the PO security is allowing it on PvT/PvZ.



Protoss late game options are undisputedly the strongest.

I stopped reading after this.

As a random player I am totally down with these changes. I can understand that truth hurts sometimes, but some of you protoss players were just not as good as the ladder made you believe. So back to work on your 'strategy' skills if you want to maintain your positions.

And the truth is what? That PvZ was Protoss favoured and that the PO nerf was therefore needed?

The numbers in the editor are still in HOTS/WOL-time. I am sure DK forgets that everytime he writes these community feedback posts.

The truth is that Protoss should make an army to secure a 3rd base just like Zergs and Terrans. Aggresion counters greed which wasn't the case against Protoss. I know you're hurt, but dry your tears and start making some units instead.

Oh, OK, then Zerg should make X production buildings, just like Protoss and Terran, and not just plant one and build unlimited number of units. Let's see how many units Zerg can amass then. In this case I would be more than happy if MsC were removed. Especially if Terrans had no reactors but also had to build double the amount of baracks, factories and starports just like Protoss.

See what I did there? In an asymmetrical RTS different races are different. Protoss shouldn't do anything like Terran/Zerg.

Edit:

And since when does aggression counter greedy Zergs? Is there a way to prevent a Zerg from going 3 hatch before pool? Nope, in LotV Zerg is pretty much guaranteed a greedy start into the game. And that is OK as long as Protoss and Terran have mechanisms to keep up. And Protoss' mechanism was the PO. I don't think Protoss can keep up with the current patch.

Okay then tell me how I can afford a 3rd in a timely fashion to not be outmacroed on some maps (Prion or Central for instance) when I have to make additionnal buildings and make units that cost double any of yours. There is a reason PO bandaid was introduced. You cannot split the only 2 units you have when you have to be greedy to be able to keep up with the other races' macro.

Terran is undisputedly the strongest late game race, with the most cost effective supply options, and static defensive options ( good luck trying to block through several PFs that are being repaired and supported by turrets)

Honestly the PO overcharge for 50 energy is too much, its so much harder to take a third when they just spam lings. #Tears

I feel like this was a long overdue patch and there was more than enough evidence to bring this out before dreamhack/major code A games... but guess david kims just trying to be careful and scared of preemptive patching like all the fails it caused in that past like the with the widow mine...

Mass BCs, Ravens, Thors, Liberators will demolish anything that Protoss / Zerg throw at them.

If you've said something like ghost/liberator it might have made some sense, but BCs? Thors? Ravens? These unit suck in current LotV.

It's understandable that Parkfarku would think that way. Look at all the highest level TvZs, those units are dominating that match up. Oh wait, Korean Zergs find mid-game most challenging versus Terrans. Ignore this poster's ignorance and you'll be better off.
