I prefer a mild nerf to tank like requiring the siege upgrade again.

What they're doing is releasing a balance test map...
What are the results they are looking for with this change? (DO WE ALL KNOW?) fix an entire game?
I think being a balance test map it's clearly obvious what they are looking taking metrics on at the moment without overdoing the input and variability concern of changing too much at once and crucifying other units because of a variable they didnt account for. so understanding the dynamics of such great changes skews the real potential of each individual change.

Assuming anyone of us had this job to balance. Whatever it is, are you going to change 8 ingredients of the whole makeup of the pie(cake, food dish), and then revert back to old reciepe when customers say it's tastes awful. What one ingredient didnt they like exactly and did the cherries sour the maple sauce too much? are you going to suck back a bunch of surgar to figure this out (some raised your hands; put them down). Are you going to waste time making 8changes into a patch release to revert back and to come full circle and staggeringly climb back up that list of changes. In this fashion to begin with, your grandchildren would beable to see a greater lineage of reciepe changes than the past 500years of family lineage displayed on a wall.
It would have saved time and headache to out set more reasoning to why they do things in baby steps, but can't they tell kids and half-way intellegent people this. baby steps dont make my baseline flux hardenough i dont know what happiness is, I cant actually play because im burned out, but i know why im burned out it's these ingame problems.. not my health, mentality, social ecosystem. No they basically insist in keeping it polite & silent; talk all you want we want your feedback it looks better than seeing stale in game numbers.
Maybe not every change is great, but reverting back to old versions isnt nessearily something blizzard does every release, so that is good... that you don't get a patch, and a week later reverted to old version; TOO many people comlained, needed to.
instead of being 3-5years older still not getting on with a professional life, we're concerning our brief time as humans on, these micro issues. It's amazing aint it, to see how much hyperbole goes on over something that is litterally taking you away from mechanically playing games and improving -regardless of your emotional state.. It's too hard to play hard, so whining harder to make it easier, is -easier than mechanically and intelligently baring the storm, that' is Blizzard's undertaking of evolving online products.

For the fancy of hopes and dreams, I'd wish the value people put in there time & posts improve more than the game itself. we're the humans.
Why are the amateurs improving this game without making changes. play the game, make the data,
(If you've payed attention to SC buzz, Its said that SC is so hard to play perfectly, and part of the game is to mitigate harrassment and maintain perfect play, and it's in the winners favor having executed harassment accurately and precisely, as well to maintain perfect allround play, including recognizing the opponents mistakes and where his advtanges have left him. assuming this is clear to everyone, everyone should be aware that noone plays perfect and so the value to these changes dont actually set out a clear answer. 2second root buff could mean zergs dont root the spore till they are aware of the lib-zone location... Or whatever the change. -armor ultars could mean some terrans can get away with MMM micro again and yet some can banshee again.. All this talk lol... I really would hope others take less passion in displaying the same uncontent disposition for xYears now (wol, hots, lotv... when did your feelings matter to this board).

Lets rule out cases of definitive devotion to cases for what is worth this
- Eco mod change LOTV beta. Respect.
- Sholip's analyses. Well met.
- master list of hackers and cheaters. Thats a useful tool i've used after noticing people on that list, i've got some funny winning replays saved, thank you for that.
(honour list) -streamers
- day9 's dailys, PiG's startup
- smaller casting streams hosting variety of tournies and exposing new talent.
- TotalBiscuit & crew.
- ect, you know who you are.

SC is a game that's in the hands of professionals, fix yourself; ignore your emotions, if you're fatigued from playing something (broken) and stressing you, then dont use down time from practicing to express your opinions in a venue consuming itself with hyperbole. If you dont think you need fixing, enjoy yourself for once for being absolutely perfect, and appreciate all these constructive additions to a public forum.
No one will ever play a version of this game that is in their best interest and everyone Else's, any idea of ideal state of the game is selfish delusion. Blizzard is making painfully slow changes, but mostly always forward and not reverting, and you dont feel it, but you're a bit happier not going back and forth between versions and unit values, meanwhile your rhetoric on discussion boards is at it's best with so many years of practice.

Because it's a buff that's telling you to go full turtle defensive. Yes, Zerg AA needs a buff, but not like this. Blizzard is just telling Zerg to turtle with queen spore ravager until T3 units, instead of promoting a more agressive (hydra based comp) or mobile (ling muta).
