Q2

What were your initial thoughts and feelings about the patch 1.22 log?

Night Elf

Satiini

I thought it was a joke since it was april fools' day, very disappointed because there were no item changes, balance changes didn't change much, I would go as far as saying they won't change anything.

Maybe mass Dryad strats will be less popular now and tower rushes from Human to Nightelf and Orc, though I never really liked mass dryads so that doesn't change the game for me at least

Zeus[19]

They are not enough, Orc Esnare didn't get nerfed, Blade didn't get nerfed, gargs didn't get nerfed, Human will still be able to tower up because towers are equally strong, Dryad xp buff is also crap, and siege tanks didn't get nerfed?

hanf	It's way too small and disappointing

SocceR

I’m a little disappointed that there is no setting available to see the health bars all the time without pressing the ALT key.

And I’m a little surprised to see that there was no changes made to Orc in the new patch. Maybe there will be a lot of Orc vs Orc match-up in every tournament’s Grand Finals ^^

WinNers

They should have an option available to be able to see the health bars of everything without pressing the ALT key. This would make the in-game control a lot easier.

Anyways, I’m quite upset to see the changes made since it will be a huge blow to NE. Dryads shouldn’t be giving so much XP, otherwise the heroes would be leveling up much faster.

Human

ReprisaL

1.22 is better than 1.21b for sure. But I was a little disappointed when I saw that BM wasn’t nerfed.

DeMusliM

Well, I felt that they aren't changing the matchups that actually need changing, just further enhancing the imbalance of certain Match ups. Dryads needed a change, but more exp wasn't it.

I also believe that the tower change won't change the number of towers that are put up and changing UD ziggs/necropolis, this wasn't a necessary buff, so overall I'm not impressed with the patch - Elf will still lose to UD but harder, Orc will still destroy UD etc. It was not what I was looking for =]

SonKiE

I'm not feeling good about it... the nerf to towers was too extreme, and the fact that I can't pass my staff around with t3 units totally makes Human t3 crap. They finally tried to tweak Dryads at least and orb, but I think this patch did nothing but hurt Human

Rainbow

Overall, I'm not happy with it. I was hoping that the cost of Dryads would have increased, but instead only the XP increased. And Human only had a slight buff..

Orc

FoCuS

It was quite unexpected to see too little changes made in the game.

Lyn	I don’t have any comments on it.

Ciara

Looks fine to me, never thought they were gonna change a lot of things to begin with, would ruin it completely so guess im satisfied, though i would like to see some buffs on burrows! xD

Fly100%

I have yet to test it out, but after waiting for such a long time for a new patch, my first impression was that there was nothing changed for Orcs. However, it appears to me that NE and Human have been essentially nerfed. But then again, I would have to test the patch to find out.

Undead

FuRy

I’m still wondering how they made UD vs ORC less hard for UD, maybe it's in the maps.

UD vs Nightelf seem a bit easier with increased xp for Dryads, and just a bit less orb dmg.

UD vs human, I dunno yet. I dunno how the changed Knights will affect the match-up in a long run, but now it's easier to take down towers and the towers that are being built at expansion

Naniwa

I think changes made are really good, but I think it needs a few more. Just a little strange to see Dryads give more XP now instead of steam tanks.

Happy

Since I don’t see any nerf for Undead I only can be satisfied with it :D. Although I think it was really a small change considering that there was no patch for 1 year from Blizzard.

Susiria

I felt that I could kill the human tower easier, but I also thought Blizzard was kidding the undead players out there. Why buff Ziggurat and Necropolis? Maybe Blizzard thought Undead was Orc instead xD. There was also nothing done to balance the Undead vs Orc matchup.

He'll still be able to mass towers!

I agree with Susiria, buff on burrows is more needed, cause Orc's base is the weakest one.
