WM rarely get to be that effective, they only have 5 range, are stationary while charged and have a very clear visual indicator of where it is and what its shoting, WM mostly where good for holding ground but they where never capable of defending On January 28 2017 06:10 aeonsies wrote: Also I'm sorry Oracles can wreck mineral lines if you don't move them or defend against them (which Terran has multiple units to do this). Would you like to trade places where a single unseen WM wrecks 5-7 workers in the blink of an eye with no warning? You mean like an oracle does right now? With the exception you can't run away from them, if they catch you with your pants down you are as good as dead. Also WM splash is nowhere big enough to kill that many workers, 3-4 max, unless the player has good reaction and map awareness where it becomes 0 because you can bait the shot into a geyser. | ||

I just worry that it's not enough, that terran will end up just making 2 or 3 more mines to compensate. They're so cheap, there's no reason not to make them in TvP right now and very little risk of being punished if you lose them. well i think you cannot begin to hypothesize the effects of the widow mine change without having some imagination about the the liberator change. the liberator change will encourage protoss to do builds that would not normally trigger a terran to produce many mines. specifically, i think we'll colossus more often since protoss will become less afraid to invest so much gas into something that doesn't deal with liberators at all. terran can open with mines for harass and early game, but as colossus come out, they'd definitely rather stop mine production completely rather than make a few extra. | ||

lol I really want to see someone trying to stop oracles with liberators, all the minerals lines would be death and the oracles would still wont have taken any hull damage. | ||

I agree that the Liberator is maybe too strong against stalkers in a Gateway based Army. But everytime Liberators see a pack of hydras they evaporate. My conclusion would be that if the damage of Liberators is reduced there shall be added something else that Improves the surviveability. To kill a pack of stalkers or hydras, Liberators need much more time if they need another shot, leading to a huge increase in damage output of stalkers. Liberators shall get compensated for this. I argue for balance on a fight centric view rather than on straight damage figures. With less damage and more health the pace of the Fight for both Players might be slowed down and making it ultimately more Micro Oriented and less sensitive for Minor balance issues, and thus making the game more fun to play and to watch | ||
