Interesting.

I'm not sure how much giving the Roach range helps them (seems like the issue is more their slow speed and resource cost relative to their population cost), but I'm not gonna complain.

Not sure if the Corrupter change was necessary, but at least it means they can't be targeted by Feedback (not that it was a major concern). Same for Thors.

I would like the void ray to be a bit cheaper :S

this is the biggest crap ever, no more early rax marine or marauder push. :?
idc about the reapers^^

[slay3r_]

whats the point of using reapers now

[LaZy]

whats the point in upgrading V ray speed if they will continue 2 walk everywhere

out

The changes to the barracks are disappointing, yes reaper rush is a bit strong maybe, and should be nerfed, but I think it would have been a lot smarter to make the supply depot a requirement for the tech lab, so that early marine pushes are still possible.

Also nitro packs has to require a factory is a bit stupid IMO, now the reapers are just not a viable unit anymore .

But well, rest of the changes are nice

[HeJurmhoanni]

Dunno but reapers seemed quite OP in team games....

Now roaches can actually deal with with reapers and helions since they have the same range. The interesting thing will be how this change affects z v t and z v z.

[deadhanddan]

it isnt like reaper are useless. still a great unit for its cost and abilities. also isnt like a factory is hard to get up. ppl have to play smarter is all

not really, i looked it up roacches got 4 range now, reapers got 4,5 range and hellions 5. though you are right that the hit&run isn't working on them so good anymore

[36drew]

Dang, I thought it was the same. A well, at least its more viable.
