Hello everyone~We're currently thinking of trying out a couple changes just on a balance test map in a couple weeks or so. We're not looking to do any major changes because the game is in a fairly solid state but just wanted to give a heads up on our current thinking in order to get your feedback.
밸런스 패치 좀 하려는데 현재 황밸이라 별로 큰 패치 할 건 없음
Main thing we're hoping to address soon is the ling/muta strategy in ZvZ. We heard your feedback on changes such as Hydralisk AA damage increase, but we'd like to go smaller in changes if possible. For example, if we increase the +bio damage on Spore Crawlers, it would only affect the ZvZ matchup which is a very small change even if we go big on the +bio damage value.
현재 포커스는 저저전에서 링뮤탈 조합임. 참고로 히드라 공중 공격 상향은 좀 그래 차라리 포촉에 생체뎀을 추가해서 저저전에만 영향을 미치게 조정할 꺼
The hope here is to have more Infestors come into play in the mass Muta on Muta battles and/or bring the fight more so to the ground because it'll be more easily possible to stay on the ground due to less resources on defense needed to fend off Mutalisk attacks.
저저전에서 감염충 좀 많이 썼으면 좋겠어
Of course ZvZ or any other matchup can change completely in the next weeks, but as of now we think this is the biggest issue in HotS.
물론 타 종족전도 패치할 건데 일단은 저저전 조정이 제일 문제야
A few other things we're thinking on but are really not even close to final on are:
1. Oracle movement speed increase
To really reward high skilled usage of Oracles. Even when air units are in play, it could be possible for the highest end players to perfectly use Oracles without losing them.
2. Burrow cost and/or research time downTowards the beginning of HotS, early burrow attacks showed some decent potential but we never see it anymore. We thought this variety in opening especially on the Zerg that usually play a defensive early game was cool. So we're wondering how early game Zerg can evolve if we made early game attacks using burrow more effective. 그밖에 대충 생각하는 게 몇 개 있음
1. 예언자 이속 상향
예언자가 이속이 느려서 자꾸 터짐
2. 잠복 비용과 업글 시간 단축
잠복을 전략적으로 쓰는 모습을 보고 싶다
As always, nothing is final at this point, but just wanted to give an update on our current thoughts. Please let us know what you think and as always in a live game, we will definitely take our time to evaluate everything before making any moves.이 중에 확정된 사항은 없음
