I want to try out the phoenix upgrade in an actual game :(

Love the commercials with EG players.

Not Incontrol shelling RAM though.

And now AMD is advertising APUs on an SC II stream.

I remember an interview where Idra said that the tight RAM timings of his Kingston RAM improved his game. I don't mind promoting products, but I don't like it when they say outright lies about products.

If 0.2FPS improvements make incontrol a better player, who am I to judge.

Hey 10 phoenixes should beat 30 mutas right?

gg blizz, so stupid.


Listening on the nony stream was amusing too, he was saying how bad the upgrade is, and still is trying to say that.

Just build a couple infestors and keep massing mutas vs upgraded phoenix, works fine apparently. Of course White-ra going for fast carriers was a terrible strategy.

edit: speaking of fast carriers...

I think Hydras should have 7 range to counter the new Phoenixes.
Zealots should come with charge to counter Hydras with 7 range.

Can someone remind me why ravens take approximately 12 minutes to make?

Remind me to never hire hazard or yoshi for balance.


However the Phoenix is broken now, weeks ago I said they should up the range by one, now blizzard went so herp they derped

uhh why, from a Terran perspective
No, like worst as in most boring piece of shit unit. A three year old could come up with the idea of the Corrupter. It's just plain bleh.'

I'm working for Blizzard in a couple of years. Look forward to it.

Corruptors are more exciting then colosi
Not even close. The colossi is a bad-fucking-ass spider-like giant, shoots two lasers out of its mouth, and when they're bunched up in a group, WAR is gonna happen.

Corrupters? They fly... and pew-pew out of their asses... and sometimes they spit green goo on you... yeah.

Colosi are a sorry excuse of a unit that took out one of the most interesting units in the entire game. Reavers are amazing to see micro. Corropturs are 100% better than 1a colosi

Basically every unit is terrible. Nothing new here.

In that situation if someone who spent a lot of time practicing Carrier/VR do you not think they could have done better? No one is a prime candidate to show what those units are capable of, and there might very well not be anyone because they are being removed.

Nah, you can do some cute drop harass with Colossus at least. Corrupters are just bleh.
It would be cool if you could see the colossi in the warp prism like you can do with thor inside the medivac!

Make it happen Blizz~

True. They deal damage before the beams come out if dropped from Warp prism. Like you can drop it on roaches and take no damage.

If b.net wasn't so shit maybe we'd see this in more games.

U would make a terrible game designer. You think colosi are cooler then the reaver?

No just no, don't talk about which units are cool.
The reaver is fucking amazing. I was simply not agreeing with you on the rest.
 
Blizzard's take on PvZ seems to be less about balance and more about direct check mate hard counters. Immortals hard counter Roaches, Cols hard counter Hydras, Archon toilet hard counters Brood Lords, now upgraded Phoenix hard counters Mutas.

Also hazard I was talking about making other units buff to balance the broken phoenixs.
?
Never mentioned buffing any unit.

I hate when developers think like that.

It's not my fault Toss aren't smart enough to have 5-6 Gateways in late game to pump out units so they don't have to focus on warping in units while trying to micro

The first Toss who figures out the proper Warpgate to Gateway ratio will dominate the game

They need to change how warp-mechanics work

It doesn't work late-game.
