A widow mine kills an oracle. A group of marines just keep it away from your mineral line for a bit. Exactly. It's laughably easy to fly away from 5 marines before they kill you. Nerfing WM splash is acceptable. Nerfing impact is completely uncalled for. | ||

Widow mine change is a move in the right direction, I'm not sure about values yet. | ||

A popular suggestion is to leave the single target of Widowmines damage at 160, so an Oracle as well as Zealots, Adepts and Stalkers would still die in one shot. Only decrease the splash shield damage instead (exact value would have to be tested), which can be compensated by the new tanks defensively. See aLive vs MyungSiK  . | ||

They said they wanted to redesign the Hydra and that just has not happened yet. | ||

What I do care about is 4 widow mines completely preventing my gateway units from doing anything, and I think the splash is the big problem there. Be it reducing the splash radius or removing the shield damage, something needs to be tweaked. | ||

Its unfair that protoss PvZ winrate is slightly higher than PvTs. To the ground, baby!!!

They are not talking about removing splash, just toning it down by 15. 15, Carl! + Shield damage should go as the ugliest mechanic in the game with pulsar beam dmg reduced by lets say 35%. Im sick of these pathetic terran whiners crying about 0ne baEs al1iNs. I got some advise for you guys. Build some libs and tanks and shift que them somewhere on the map then talk about 1 baes alins.

Well, in the latter part of my post I said i'd prefer it to be removed, at least from the splash. I think +shield damage is the worst thing in the game, it's stupid and unnecessary. Really, dropping it by 15 probably won't change much. I just want something done because I'm absolutely sick of playing against mines lol. It's not fun at all. I'm not claiming to know what the solution is but tweaking/removing the shield damage is a good place to look. | ||
