Not sure, we will see after some time but I definitely like that they are doing more drastic approach.

Mech was only cancer because it was so bad. Tanks were so awful you had no choice but to group the only tanks you had at one base, because you sure as hell didn't have the power to push.

I wish they removed the need to place autoturrets on a grid.

Great changes though

Cannot really comment on these changes yet, have to think about it a little bit more.
Glad that they want to change things, upset that it's nothing about fundamental game mechanics like pathing, high ground, economy, etc.

Mech was only cancer because it was so bad. Tanks were so awful you had no choice but to group the only tanks you had at one base, because you sure as hell didn't have the power to push.

so what changes now, aside of tanks being even stronger in their deathball?

just because you can play in a less efficient way, doesn't mean you should

Fantastic changes, i hope most of them can make it through. I'm even down for the DT change if it comes with an increase to shrine build time.

This makes me so hopeful for the game, Blizz has handled LoTV so well compared to WoL and HotS, its night and day.
Has foreign StarCraft hit rock bottom?

Wow that's a lot of changes. I'm pretty sure there's going to be several things that will end up being broken along the way, but as long as they can be resolved in the off-season... The things that worries me the most is that with the new changes the Tempest becomes a lot worse with dealing with ranged liberators.

edit: oh nvm. Only anti-ground range being changed.

Really really interesting changes, I like how it's mostly buffs and not nerfs (aside from the Liberator).
Interesting cyclone redesign, I always thought that in its current state it would always either be broken or useless. (atm it's a very niche unit so it's leaning towards useless )
Also super happy about Tankivac removal, never liked them from the start.
I still don't like adepts though, I hope they won't be a core unit anymore

Why 4 months of waiting???

This is where Blizzard fails continuously. They are just too damn slow to implement radical changes. Look at what happened to Diablo 3.

However,

the changes would be a dream come true. And I might actually start playing this game again.

I'm hoping that if they'll also be open to trying out other changes during the testing period and not just tweaking the ones in the blog.
