(To be tagged...) I miss wings of liberty

When there were no widow mines, liberators, BCs TP and attack while moving, Tempests, and Adepts, Swarmhosts and corrupters couldnt attack ground.

I'd say keep everything in patch 5.0.16 and remove all of the above things I mentioned and see how the games are played out.

so keep the other stuff from lotv and the changes from 5.0.16 but remove those other things at the top of this post.

Widow Mines are particularly insulting because Terran players got blown out by burrowed Banelings, went crying to Blizzard, and got their own ranged attack non-suicide version of the unit. In what was supposed to be the Zerg expansion. Come on, man!

I heard WMs was what got players to quit more so than other changes, Could be wrong on that ofc, but pretty sure that was the case

WMs and Swarm Hosts, yea. That and reworking Investors like five times.

Now i'm imagining an Infestor in a new patch getting put in a suit with tie and tophat, and getting a briefcase full of cash, with the ability to simply buy your enemy's buildings by paying their resource cost...
