seems pretty good to me, especially the extra ladder maps, because I felt there were not really a lot ladder maps.

But also the cooldown for MULE is cool and the faster zerg OL who can create creep while moving (if im reading it correctly)

omg ovie speed increase

This means overlord scouting gets way easier / better. Also larve cost less energy means more creep and ovie can move while spreading creep means even more creep

I already love this patch

As a zerg player all I can say is.

I really really really really really like this patch. I wonder when it will be implemented. Hope to god the changes are accurate.

even before this patch will come out i decided to switch to zerg, they fit my playstyle more^^

I'm also thinking of switching to zerg. Or playing random, but then I will have to learn terran too

chronoboost getting a cooldown proves it's fake, since saving up energy would be of no use what-so-ever.
queens still have transfusion/creep tumor and orbital commands still have scans and supply drops to use the excess energy with, but nexuses have nothing. they might as well just remove the energy cost for chronoboosts

fake notes

So many of these changes seem massive that I can only think that they are fake notes.

Definitely fake.

Chrono cool down makes sense. Afterall, it's not fair that zerg inject larva and then can't again for another 20-30 seconds. A terran can piss off and come back and throw down 4238947 mules. Definetly not balanced.

You'll get just as many imbalanced map match ups in favor of you as you will against you. I see no reason why maps would be a big factor in why you would play random.

random race hasnt been kind to me , neither was the map selection. d.o. and steppes were for some reason i got almost all the time even though i had them checked off from pool list

Steppes is a perfect map though!

lol tanks under cliff is gg expo !, rush distance is VERY short makes early expanding hard (gg Z FE). Steppes is made for 1 base ALL in laming.
