    The full list of changes can be viewed here.

    My personal favourite is the unclickable control buttons :twitcy:

    Fungal growth is meh though. It's supposed to be an ensnaring ability and now it's moving towards a weak AoE damage ability.

    Also, new league icons depending on rank, woo!

    Looking forward to this one.

    Nice overview of the changes:

    "Units leaving the Mothership's Vortex are now un-targetable and immune to damage for 1.5 seconds."
    awwww, no more archon toilets :(

    The Fungal Growth nerf sucks though. It's the only really good Zerg counter against MMM. ^^

    I feel really bad about the fungal growth ability....it's super useful as well, especially when i saw a little trick with fungal growth and Hydralisk /w range upgrade :>

    So MS is now again worthless except for mass recall. Awesome...

    Wouldn't mind the Infestor buff/stealth nerf if the missile attack wasn't so slow. Good luck hitting phoenixes or mutas with it...

    i also disagree on the fungal ... it was meant to inmovilize more than damage ... in fact is what I use it more, to avoid stimpacked marine to flee or phoenixes to run away from my mutas... its an expensive unit, weak with no shoting by itself... its point are its habilities and they want to nerf them...

    FG change will be good for zerg as long as they remove the projectile crap.

    Stim change is HUGE!

    I think it's a shame blizzard balances to bronze players...

    I'll gladly take the loss of infestor health to get the instant cast FG back :D

    I think this patch is a step in the right direction but Blizzard has a ways to go before the game is balanced... Terran is way too strong right now.

    As a toss player here's my opinion.

    Pros: You can mothership vortex maybe 1/3 or 1/2 of your own units and gain that 1.5second dmg immunity :p.

    Cons: 1.No more amulet for HT's..
    2. Grandmaster League, wth blizzard... just keep it simple.. bronze - masters.
