This is how you actually make Zerg early game less of a free pass, not 25 more mineral. I'm fully onboard with the idea of making the queens 3 supply. Some counter nerfs need to done to zerg so it won't get out of control. | ||

I look at it and it looks to me like it is nerfing all three races. I think part of what makes patches fun is new powers, but if everyone is weakened, everyone feels bad. I like making Ghosts slightly less mass-able by increasing supply, but it doesn't really change any ghost interactions and so I would like to see Zerg have a more viable lategame response to Ghosts (like Brood Lord changes, even if it is just the bug fix with no buffs). I like the idea of Terran having a more viable midgame unit - I think the blue-flame change seemed aimed at that. Maybe revert the Void Ray move speed nerf? Or give back a reduced battery overcharge? Protoss are getting a big new toy in the Energy Overcharge, but because they are losing Battery Overcharge, it feels like a nerf overall. | ||

StarCraft 2 had the most number of games played then per season ever in its life span. What ever happened after that brought it to dwindling fall and to what ever it is today. See for your self: https://sc2pulse.nephest.com/sc2/?season=60&queue=LOTV_1V1&team-type=ARRANGED&us=true&eu=true&kr=true&cn=true&bro=true&sil=true&gol=true&pla=true&dia=true&mas=true&gra=true&page=0&type=ladder&ratingAnchor=99999&idAnchor=0&count=1#stats-global Ps. 5.0.3 is almost the same as the patches before it 4.11.0 - 5.0.3: https://liquipedia.net/starcraft2/Patch_5.0.3 This can easily be attributed to the COVID pandemic leading to people being able to work from home (or be unemployed at home), and having much more time to play and watch SC2. Viewership also rose during this time, and towards the end of the pandemic has decreased back to roughly where it was before. Many people during COVID came back to check on SC2 and give it a try. But, you might also be right about something. The game was surely more stable and balanced in a more professional manner than the Balance Council's patches. | ||

You guys realize this was also the void ray meta? We aren't seriously suggesting going back to that, are we? Pre 5.0.2 I could at least see an argument, but we can't forget the first balance council patch got us away from that nonsense of a meta. | ||
