Reality vs Soulkey was great So was MaNa vs Firecake and Stephano vs Petraeus Those game that Miniraser got kicked out of i51 for, i loved them. Here's how it works. In WoL games were too short, only 15-30 minutes long. In HotS games are too long, 30-60 minutes long. Somewhere between whiny and never is when the forum posters (of the internet in general) will ever be happy with anything the creators of their fandom does. | ||

You fix PvP but make PvT PvZ that much harder. | ||

I hope to see more hydralisk buffs, whatever they are, whatever unit the power comes out of. Hydras and Mutas are really the iconic zerg units, but hydras still don't have the "wow" factor that Mutalisks have | ||

Scarabs were 1 shot, but they were 9 range and dealt 100 splash damage. Scarabs also were supported by fast shuttles. Scarabs deal less damage and are not permanent. So if you want it to be similar you'd either make it so Locus are permanent units that you can mass produce with the Swarm Host or they are units that deal between 50-100 damage an attack to compensate for their lack of AoE. | ||

Which is honestly quite trivial by the time you actually have 20 locusts. In normal usage it doesn't change anything, but add a certain feeling of inevitability to games that the current ZvZ problem doesn't have. In TvZ or PvZ even the most boring swarmhost situations involve one side slowly losing something wheras that's not the case in the ZvZ we speak. Even though the amount of actual minerals is minor, the fact that resources are being expended in the natural state of the game will push the disadvantaged player to make some move as to change their inevitable losing position as opposed to the "playing for a draw" mentality that had gotten the one player banned | ||

Also the Oracle is a micro intensive unit, like the Reaper. you are not seriousely comparing a reaper to a skyferarri? one can fly, is twice as fast, kills stuff faster than lil boy tommy frying ants with his lighter/spray combo and one is a scout which occasionally will get a worker kill done. when lucky. | ||

Think of it this way, 1 set of spawns per 25 seconds is about 2.5 spawns per every minute. This means that you can fully sustain 20 locusts at 100 minerals/minute.

Like, would we then be able to make siege tanks deal 100 damage with full splash for 10 minerals a shot? The Reaver Scarab and the Interceptor cost money because they (as unit attacks) were markedly different from normal attacks. Scarabs dealt SOOOO much damage at such long range while Interceptors were literally low cost flying units. In order to give a reason for adding such a drastic change to the way we handle attacks we need to compensate for the design change. Because this isn't just a nerf, this would be a complete design change in the way the unit is meant to be used. It stops being a zone control unit and becomes a deathball unit wherein you simply have them unborrowed and clumped with the rest of your army until right before the engagement where you sink in and send locus at their army. | ||

Don't mind the reversion of the Spore buff though, miss playing Muta in ZvZ. More importantly, however, the Swarm Host needs to be changed. Just make it a Lurker already. | ||
