I agree with Charoisaur. Fuck mass air comps just nerf libs, tempest and vipers, do what that post on reddit said, make the midgame stronger. | ||

I mean is good for certain cases, but its more of a loss because altough sky terran is weaker (and thank god for that because fuck mass air) sky toss and sky zerg (BL/viper) is still strong (and that sucks because fuck mass air). I agree with Charoisaur. Fuck mass air comps just nerf libs, tempest and vipers, do what that post on reddit said, make the midgame stronger. Thor change might help vs libe and make mecha niche instead of unviable. 100% useless vZ/P tho. | ||

The other changes are OK (I guess) but I totally understand someone who would think the photon cannon change is nonsensical. Korean PvZ is heavily P favored and you restrict Z a bit more ? Come on. | ||

Even if liberators are nerfed, thus making corruptors more viable, without PB terran can go banshee liberator viking(which would be the counter to corruptors) without a good way for zerg to respond to it. Just make a few less liberators and a few more vikings and you'd be set to go. | ||

They're completely missing the point : -Liberators are too strong : okay, but they are the only response to ultras : nerf liberator, but nerf ultras appropriately so bio isn't completely useless in late game. -Protoss is too greedy early vs Terran and struggles to hold vs Zerg... Nerf the MSC so terran can harass early but also nerf ravager so zerg can't all-in every game (and also removing garbage maps like prion or korhal carnage will also help on that matter). It's fine since if you nerf liberators. -Adepts, lurkers, ravager, liberator and possibly disruptor are way too strong and game breaking in a lot of matchups so instead of going around the problem and giving protoss cannon pylon or any other nonsensical feature deal with the problem at the very root. See for example swarm host was nerfed to the ground and is no longer a problem. I don't recommend nerfing every unit as massively since they're not as boring as the SH | ||

then they nerfed the cyclone because the unit was too superior to its alternatives and didnt fit a role, instead it just overlapped and did every units role better, instead of balancing this they just blanket nerfed it into oblivion. Now they are nerfing the liberator to the point where you cant make them outside bio, pigeonholing terran into going for the korean bio build, this is the final nail in the coffin of mech players, good job blizzard removing 30% of the sc2 community and its viewership, and those people take with them their friends, their contribution and its not like sc2 can afford that right now. | ||

And this right before two tournaments where for Leipzig they delayed the adept nerf which was a clear and present balance problem. I'm pretty upset. e: In order to trade effectively with corruptors (and infestors and vipers), vikings needed raven support. But that unit was nerfed into the ground too. Zerg just gets air dominance late game now and because liberators are so necessary to deal with ultras on the ground, I don't know how this just doesn't evolve into another broodlord/infestor type meta as zergs learn the balance between greed and survival. | ||
