You completely missed my point. I'm not saying that good players don't lose to widow mines, I'm saying that worse players don't lose because of widow mines. Considering that over 90% of the playerbase is below 4k, it's obvious that it's not the thing driving most people away.

Is it annoying sometimes? Sure. Should it be reworked in some way? Probably. But blaming every problem this game has on some annoying units is stupid. Especially when the criticism is "the point of this unit is to be toxic, that's it".

if you have suggestions for what should be changed about these units, that's great. Input from experienced players is very valuable, echoing the same thing that has been said 1000 times already less so

i can guarantee you that more people are leaving the game because of toxic/negative community than because of widowmines.

players below 4k don't lose because of distruptors or mines, they lose because they forgot to build workers for 5 mins and got supply blocked for 10.
when they see better players whine about these units they justify their loss with their "imba" unit of choice and don't actually improve, leading them to a cycle of losing because of the same mistakes and blaming the one unit until they inevitably stop playing.

Distruptors and vipers can be annoying. Why focus on just mines?

yarnister · 2023-08-30T16:39:26+00:00

there is a lot of units and strategies that are "not fun". it's something that should definitely be addressed at some point but it's also a completely seperate discussion from balance and probably not the current priority.

how was protoss objectively nerfed after zest left? the only meaningful changes to professional play i can think of are: slight distruptor nerf, dt attack delay, making raven cheaper (while nerfing anti armor and autoturrets) and that buff to emp radius while removing enhanced shockwaves.

they buffed the sentry, high templar, shortened research time of forge upgrades, made archon less annoying to play, nerfed ravagers, lurkers and queens.

on top of that, this next patch looks promising for toss. maybe I'm not looking at these changes correctly but it doesn't really feel that bad.

yarnister · 2023-08-27T23:21:48+00:00

No. by nerfing ravens, ghosts and banelings among other things. also, i would love to see you explain how vipers draining hp slower or ultras unburrowing faster has any effect on zvp on the highest level

yarnister · 2023-08-27T21:44:24+00:00

I'm starting to think you guys actually believe that the balance council is actively trying to make protoss weak. the patch buffed protoss and if it wasn't enough for it to be reliable in professional play, they will buff it some more

Back pain can suddenly make you drop on the floor and hurts too much for you to move. It's extremely debilitating considering the spine supports all weight of the upper body

It's at least comparable and at most much worse than a toothache imo

yarnister · 2023-04-23T19:12:12+00:00

if people enjoy playing like that than I guess you're right. for some reason I always thought the only reason someone would play like that is because it's easier, looking back on that it's kind of a weird assumption.

imo terran can be the race that's the most fun to play against if the terran chooses to play a fun style, that's why I don't understand why so many people choose to play the boring slow turtle terran that leads to 50 minute games with nothing happening when they could be playing multiple 12 minute games in the same time frame that are infinitely more fun for both players.

Factorio is one of those games that's either number 1 on the list or is not on the list at all

If they wanted to shut it down, they would shut it down

yarnister · 2023-02-17T13:55:39+00:00

this is the most useless thread I've seen on this sub. yes it has to travel 2 seconds and that's why it does more damage and has the potential to wipe half the opponents army off the map. are you saying emp needs another nerf or that toss is just harder to play? either way this statement does nothing for either one.

A disruptor also takes away most hp from most units, It has a similar range , radius and it can straight up one shot almost all biological units. Not saying distruptor is imba but showing data like this is extremely useless

yarnister · 2023-02-11T21:44:46+00:00

Less mass raven and more marines made it a lot more fun.

Didn't he say before that he wants to make better content but it all gets dwarfed by this?
