I am looking forward to seeing some cool micro with drop overlords to move queens across the map and drop creep so they can transfuse. It adds another step to queen walks, but i think it will be cool to see. I could be wrong. Perhaps the void ray is being hit too hard, maybe just one of those changes would be good enough. I'm very happy to see some development! | ||

Void ray more expensive, sure Toss can live with that DT and battery nerf? Just so the terran fanboys stop crying? 1500min 1500 gas commitment just for a “chance” to kill a 550 planetary? | ||

Obvously, TossHeroes knows more about balance at the highest level than Harstem does /s For those who don't know, this balance patch was made from the input from a group of pro players, including Harstem's input: Harstem overall thinks the nerfs to shield battery and nerf to blink for DTs was a good nerf and it was needed. | ||

I think all the individual changes are good (except idk why they did that widow mine nerf?), but the patch overall is maybe missing something | ||

- Shield battery nerf seems good to discourage mass proxy battery cheeses - DT buff seems unnecessary but not a big deal - Void ray nerfs seem too much. Pick one nerf, not both. But really they should be changed to be more interesting and have more micro potential. - Queen nerf seems decent but not sure how big of a deal this will end up being - Widow mine nerf seems good for lower levels but not sure about it being good for pro level - Lurker nerf seems okay but probably not enough. I think having slower movement speed would be better. Maybe both slightly nerfed? - Nydus buff seems fine, especially because of the queen nerf | ||

I don't see how this patch affects TvZ much, and I think the issues with TvZ are more about maps anyways | ||

The only thing, I realy Don t get is the DT Nerf. If you want to nerf P Late game, make the carrier weaker, like increase the interceptor build time a second or two and make carriers practically useless. But why nerf the only Protoss ground unit, that was somewhat decent in Lategame before? If they want to Help Protoss in high Level while nerf them at lower Level, they need to nerf A- move units like the carrier and buff units you actually have to control to do damage. | ||

Protoss also cant chrono multiple times the same building at once. So exlain to me, where they get away with murder... Did you hear about warp gate and larva | ||

Look at it the other way: nobody was complaining when DTs didn’t have blink that « they absolutely need blink ». Making it less obnoxious than it is atm and allow more time to react / thus more counter play and making it less of a « free meal » move for protoss is probably a good thing. | ||

Are these the same players who repeatedly stated that there's no issue with SC2 balance? I am just making sure I am not mistaking anyone. | ||
