EPTDId they enjoyed the era when PvT was only 2 base tank/scv pull all ins that much?
Balance aside that is an awful change from a design perspective because it will make the MU an awful shit show.

If those games weren't such one sided stomps the only thing it would show is how broken Zerg is. Reynor does just fine against EU terrans (aka the players on his skill level). Dark has been doing just fine against that style from Maru on ladder. The huge majority of Terrans including other pros struggle with Z in lategame. Pro zergs like solar have admitted the infestor broodlord comp is currently unbeatable in a direct fight for Terran. Something this drastic was definitely needed. Also just on a side note, investors still have alot of vercitility to them along side spores, corruptors, and vipers. I'm not to worried for zerg to be honest it just might make terran late game viable not broken. | ||

Reducing the counter unit (ITs) damage by 50 percent while also buffing the unit that counters it (ghost) is a horrendous idea. The BC needs a nerf to it if these are going through or its going to broken for sure. I dont understand how super obvious things like this ever make it into patches (stalker buff etc) you only need a very limited experience playing or watching to know how stupid this is. Pros get to comment on proposed balance changes and they don’t share your concerns. Also, Maru is just better than Reynor at late game. Serral wiped the floor with Special’s BC battlemech and swept him 4-0 just like Maru swept Reynor. Serral was asked about those WCG games and his response was Reynor sucks at late game. If we saw Maru beat Serral 4-0 with BCs, then maybe we should be concerned about their power. | ||

When was the last time Blizzard released anything that wasn't a remaster or a WoW/Hearthstone expansion? Maybe they should try doing that. | ||

SC BW became balanced the moment Blizzard abandoned it. | ||

SC BW became balanced the moment Blizzard abandoned it. BW was far from balanced the moment Blizzard abandoned it. There is a reason 4 out of the 5 bonjwas are terran, and the only non-terran one was implicated in match fixing scandal When it was realized that Terran was broken and Protoss was trash, they started heavy focus on map design to try and balance things out. SC2 balance > BW balance imo. Balance by map design is a failure imo | ||
