Fixed an issue which prevented footprint from being edited in the Footprint Editor.

TERRAN

Ghost

EMP radius has been decreased from 2 to 1.5

http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/1213111662


Really strange, for what reason Protoss ground weapons and armor cost has changed. (for Shields OK)
And why there is no reduction to FG radius along with EMP?

P.S. For P EMP radius reduction might have sense cuz HT/sentry are really small, but now EMP is even more useless against really fat infestors, that is really worse for TvZ mid/late game.

The shield upgrade makes sense since it was ridiculously expensive, but for the rest I really don't think they need cheaper upgrades.

Ghost thing won't change anything

Upgrade change only makes sense I suppose. Still sad to see that this is the only thing going on though, was hoping for something more major.

Loving these changes. Blizzard DO listen to the community!

I reckon this is mostly to solve PvT - cheaper upgrades won't make a massive difference in PvZ, whereas in PvT the 2 Forge mass upgrade style could really do with this buff. And obviously the EMP nerf is to stop blanket EMPs being so effective vs Protoss.
