I am so hyped, time to play more and get out of dia 2 finally!

I was rather surprised about how many people seemed interested in sc2 on https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/7cukui/starcraft_ii_wings_of_liberty_now_free/

This might actually really help sc2 in the long run.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

StarCraft threads always do well on /r/Games, they're usually comprised of people saying some of the most inane things about how StarCraft killed RTS games by making everything about APM and how years ago they could just play their friends with 5 APM and not care.

He okay, interesting. I think the timing, with EA shitting the bed, helped as well.

I must admit that I didn't follow much the changes in preparation, so this comes as a real shock to me.

Some of these things look fine, I am almost sad of not being terran, because the new raven looks quite fun (even though probably pretty useless in actual games). But the most absurd is the Disruptor, they have essentially killed the unit. Also Stasis Ward timer seems unnecessary and just plainly annoying.

It's happening to a lot of people, Blizzard said they're aware of the issue and are working on a fix.

As far as I can see there are no changes from the balance patch that Homestory Cup was played on. Does anyone see a difference?

Of course, it's starcraft The name alone will have people at least check it out and I think co-op mode will have people stick around too. Not sure it will help the ladder much though.

The problem with widowmines is the drop on mineral lines. Too much damage potential for no risk.

All right.


And don’t forget next year it‘s rinse and repeat, new major balance and design changes will be announced while they try to squeeze out every penny there is left with shitty skins, warchests and whatnot, only thing I really can get behind is announcers and additional campaign stuff like Nova DLC, but we have to face the bitter truth, SC2 will be in low(er) effort mode from now on, since the influx of new players won‘t be as big as people hope it would be.

Worst thing for me personally is that they merged all different ladders AND still have no option to disable skins for old school players.
And fuck this High Templar attack, this is so stupid...

Edit: And they even left this observer/overseer vision thing in?!?! What a joke, seriously.

So going by that logic Oracles still must be crazy OP, right?
