Why deleting fungal like that ?

Yes it's deleting, no one will ever build infestor except for IT vs skytoss, it's worst than during the area when no one play them...

The dmg is ridiculous 30 dmg... a HT is cheaper and storm does 80dmg...

So the utility ? Oh no it just slows...

The survability ? no, infestor without burrow is instant killed by tanks/feedback.

So you'll have an ability that does no dmg, a unit very expensive that die really fast, and a spell that is now close to useless...


And that's where a specialized caster must be, in it's niche,


So you would agree that High Templars should be nerfed to the ground

For all their sins no one builds 30 high templars and go around monobattling all comers.

This is one of the fastest feedback response in lotv tbh.

I still member this time last year it took them 3 months to nerf liberator and wm when PvT winrate was 40%.

Good to know balance change is based on player base instead of real balance issues

This is exactly how you do small balance changes. You base it on the observation.

Demuslim proposed some time ago that turrets no longer require eng bay to be built. Seems like a good idea vs early oracle, what do u think?

The problem is that Infestor nerf is an overkill. I don't mind tweaking units stas, but now Infestor is worse than before design changes and in the same time, ghost is buffed as hell. Basically with these changes TvZ lategame will be hell for Zerg players. Infestors won't be able to protect Broodlords or even help Ultras to catch enemy's army...We used to abuse Infestors as we had no other option for lategame. Now we have none. If they want nerf fungal radius-ok- but leave burrow cast. If they want delete burrow cast- leave the radius and revert projectile to instant. If they want nerf Infestor to the ground- nerf Ghosts and High Templars too, not buff them! Zerg always had problem with valid casters. Now it's back.

... what did i just read. and then i just read a comment that late game Terran doesn't have reliable detection. WHAT did i just read.
This is terrrible.

Zerg needs to have strong AOE AA to avoid letting Protoss get into air death balls.
Infestor are already extremely hard to use. They should be stronger and slightly easier.

The big problem with oracles is also their effective firepower in mass, not their survivability. Instead of making them more glass cannony, lower their speed of damage, increase their HP just slightly.
The previous patch reducing the duration time of statis wards and revelation is a step in the right direction.

Zerg also needs ways of dealing with Terran air. Medivacs and Liberators are far too effective without ways to counter them.
Blahhh

Oh yeah? We'll see after these changes hit the ladder. Ultras were nerfed, broodlords were nerfed, nowninfestors nerfed, swarmhosts nerfed and in the same time we got Thor buff, ghost buff. We'll see

People do that with infestors and are actually succesful?

Doubt that very much

Good changes but more is needed. My suggestions for next patch:

-Make blink stalkers unable to move or attack for 2 seconds after blink
-Remove energy from medivac, just make it heal
-Reduce nuke calldown to 14 seconds, increase damage to around 800
-Reduce widow mine supply to 1, decrease cost to 50/25, reduce cooldown to 25 seconds
-Increase EMP radius to 2

spotted the terran player

I would redress your suggestions slightly:

- no
- keep medivac energy, but give us some cute trick to drain it empty (e.g. manual cast on a full hp unit still drains energy). kinda like banshees can spam cloak / uncloak to keep them safe from feedbacks.
- 500 damage to units, 800 to buildings. the red dot probably needs to be bigger
- sounds fair enough
- 1.75 radius, but reduce the infestor model size
