It's actually depressing to see how we get more on topic discussion about this on reddit than tl. | ||

For my part easy to play and strong is the same thing, so I agree with you. But a lot of people will differentiate between those two somehow and then quality of life --> easier to play is not the same as a balance change. | ||

Here are some notes: Testing with the following: Zergling Baneling Lurker Ravager Roach Hydra Queen Infestor -Unburrowing becomes a lot more managable, you can have a bunch of units selected, some burrowed and some not, and hit the unburrow key, which will unburrow everything (except Lurkers which is good, and one other case I think is a bug, see below) -Burrowed units no longer have a different portraits, however, control left clicking a burrowed unit will still only select burrowed units of that kind, so that functionality remains(yay). -The functionality to select all burrowed units via portraits however, is gone (even in lurkers). This might be ok since the groupings overlap now anyway, but separate portraits would be nice to keep in my opinion -While having Lurkers as the active sub-group with all other units, hitting burrow will only burrow the Lurkers, this is good as it doesn't mess up lurker micro. - selecting all units and hitting burrow will burrow all units EXCEPT the Lurker. This is GOOD, because it's treated separately so people won't be accidentally burrowing everything just to put lurkers in the ground. Some possible bugs/issues: The ability to unborrow units of different types is strictly dependent on the states of the active sub-group. Meaning if you have a group of Ling/Bling, and some of the zerglings are burrowed, but none of the banelings are, then you CANNOT unburrow the zerglings without tabbing to the subgroup (since banelings take priority over zerglings). If at least ONE of the banlings IS burrowed however, then the ability becomes active and hitting unburrow will unburrow everything. This might be fixable by just having the command card always display a grayed out version of the unburrow button for all units. Swarm Hosts are treated like any other unit, however since they can only attack when burrowed, like the Lurker, I think they should be treated in kind, meaning that burrowing all regular units excludes Lurkers AND SwarmHosts. I will test more later, but I'm late for work now... Overall, this is awesome to see. Thank you Blizzard for not being scared to change core mechanics | ||

Can you explain this post to me? I don't understand. Blizzard has a timeframe for when they want to pop the first balance patch. Should they not fix *anything* else until this time? Why is it bad for blizzard to try and improve their game outside of balance? | ||

Gaining an extra hotkey is my opinion not a big deal - there are a lot of spare keys on the keyboard. The functionality improvements are really helpful though and definitely worth the drawbacks. Dasian seems to have covered everything - I agree with him on all his points. The first bug he mentions should definitely be addressed. The second possible issue should be addressed too, if lurkers are treated separately so should swarmhosts because they both attack while burrowed. That's just a consistency thing. I love the control click still only selecting burrowed units of that kind functionality. It retains the benefits of being able to manage burrowed units separately while improving everything else. | ||

Build a few lings, burrow some. Select all lings. Unburrow hotkey does not work. Clicking works fine. Does not happen with roaches. Can somebody confirm this? Edit: Even though it showed a hotkey in the command card, it was unbound in the menu. Reassigning the hotkey solved the problem. | ||

Though I am indeed already sick of disruptors wars, both to play AND to watch. Did you feel the same way about Colossi I hope? No. Is it politically incorrect to say so ? I don't like volatility, not gonna lie about it. Colossi weren't perfect, but disruptors are just sickening. | ||
