It really sad how toss think its ok too be so greedy and basically defend everything. but if terran or zerg could do it, its a problem. this patch is very much needed and hopefully toss understand you should need units to defend bases and not supply structures. and think about it if toss does go to shit that means (hopefully) blizzard will buff units and not one of the worst designed abilities ever created. (which they should've done in HOTS) You act like Protoss players asked for Photon Overcharge. We didn't. We hate it. Early game WOL just took so much more skill and was more fun. We want it gone just as bad as you do, and want our units buffed. It is the reason I stopped playing the game in HOTS, it is a terribly boring and skilless ability. I also stopped playing LOTV because of it. But that doesn't mean Protoss doesn't need some help, because clearly according to the winrates, they do. This patch should not have been called a balance patch, it should be called a game design patch, because this won't help balance the game, if you use the definition of balance that the dictionary gives. | ||

This is a right post! | ||

They took the race that was winning less than 50% in both non-mirrors and nerfed them without giving any compensatory buffs. http://aligulac.com/misc/balance/ Ptitdrogo winning Dreamhack was like when Fruitdealer won the first GSL. Incredible win against a race that had nearly a 60% winrate versus his race. lmao fruitdealer? Dreamhack had 1 T, 7 P, 8 Z in RO16. Stop crying dude. If uThermal had won DH, it would be similar to fruitdealer. | ||

PO energy will come like super late.. and yeah lets allow reapers/lings freely scouting every bldg that protoss makes. While their base is secured with that depot wall in and Queens :/ this also makes retarded gateway all ins easier | ||

Yeah sure Protoss will not PO Overlords but is that necessarily a good thing? In this specific case I'd argue that no, as it pushes Protoss into getting anti air units at some point in the early game, which in itself is very one-dimensional. I also don't think you actually ever thought about being greedy and defending everything from the other races, where Zerg has been getting 3 hatch off of queens and slowlings for the majority of SC2 and Terran had builds like hellion/cloak banshee into 3 CC. It's almost as if you forget that all races can be greedy to some extent. We will see how Protoss fares with weak gateway units and nerfed defensive/offensive capabilities. | ||

I don't see why P should not build an army like everyone else early on, or get the forge for cannons. Having such an early flyer that offers offensive vision AND shooting pylons allows for being very greedy. Unlike any other race. I never understood that. | ||
