lol why did they take over a month to make such minuscule changes? have to agree with the sentiment on team liquid, the retarded situation report preview of patch 1.1 implied larger changes were coming.

Can't please the noobs, this patch changes very little. In game clock is prolly the worst idea.

basically protoss and terran got nerfed down and zerg still suck just as bad. This is atleast a bit more reasonable.

BC rushing is OP - taken care of
zealot rushing vs zerg - taken care of
99% of protoss relying on 4 gate pushes to win - taken care of
a few tanks one shotting 50 zerglings - taken care of
mass reapers vs zerg as well as just all in reaper rushes - taken care of
marine/bunker rushes - taken care of (sort of)

So essentially they've sorted out all of the degenerate strategies that have evolved. I still want to see some kind of marauder/void ray nerfs. I'm kind of worried that this patch will just have more people making more of these units which are both OP.

Only change I don't really like is the ultralisk nerf because I've pretty much ran over my last 20 protoss matchups on ladder with them.

I think the ultra changes are probably necessary with the toss nerfs so I don't really think the small change is going to have any significant impact.

Not sure why you're bitching sypher, most of these changes benefit zerg greatly.

I`ll say it again, nerf marauders. I don´t mind about the tanks, is that newb ass terran bioball that is OP.
Also, stimmed marauders look ridiculous moving that fast.

also i just learned that the ram attack is actually the same dps as the regular attack when attacking buildings, except that it also does splash damage to surrounding buildings/units. So this isn't even a nerf. I was thinking of walled in protoss buildings when I posted that. I knew it did splash dmg but I didn't know it did the same single target dps as ram also (or roughly the same). Which is one of the only ways a protoss player can stop my ultras. Hiding behind his buildings like a bitch.

I wouldn't mind a mild marauder nerf, but your idea of no stim was weak.

It should also make it easier for ultras to kill something like a PF being repaired by a buttload of scvs, because now the scvs will take splash damage.

I don't play zerg or toss, but wouldn't immortals/void rays rape ultras?

Ultras rape everything.
Also, PF are way too strong right now, since your army won`t attack the repairing scvs and you need to attack them one at a time, and thats is a lot of micro.

immortals do rape ultras and this patch will amplify that. void rays own them too. archons aren't bad vs them either.

Seems like they listened to Idra's suggestions:

while terran is very strong it may be blown out of proportion by the fact that terran virtually always enters the mid game with a significant advantage. reaper and bunker rushes, zealot rushes as well, need to be significantly nerfed. i suspect roaches or neural parasite will still need to be buffed after that, but the early game changes should be made first and then evaluated.

---

Lol, its pretty clear to me you're all newbies. Terran aren't OP at all, you just don't know how to play your races. Protoss were the strongest race pre this patch. I believe it's abit more even now.

I would like to see marauders with 25 less hp. 125 down to 100. I could handle their large damage but their survivability is too high.

Voidrays need to do like -10 damage to armored. That would somewhat stop their base raping abilities.

I'd like to see a small buff to roaches. Maybe increase their armor to 2 again.

I'd like to see a speed buff to the Mothership--it's one of the worst units in the game right now for the cost.

Finally, I'd like to see an overall speed buff to the hydralisk.

I think those small changes would balance things quite well, imo.

I pretty much agree with kith except I think void rays also need a speed decrease until they get the upgrade. They're not exactly fast but you shouldn't be able to send something that devastating into someone's base that early in the game and not lose it if it fails.

I've decided that I'm going to baneling bust every terran player I face on the ladder until the next patch. I just got manhandled by 5 rax reaper rush transition to mmm, watched the replay and I literally don't think I could have won if I had a maphack.

Eeewww. If you see he switched to pumping heavy marauder, don't pump roaches/ultras. Marauders counter both roaches and ultras. You shoulda stopped making roaches after the reaper harass stopped. Ling/bling woulda been more effective, with either infestors(fungal growth) backing them up or broodlords.
