Ah, I figured they would’ve had a NDA on the Beta. I’ll setup file sharing on the Web site later on.

Things of note cheesing is still semi effective, and in many ways more effective. Toss can warp in units into power fields now, zerg spine crawlers(sunken colony) can move along the creep also overlords spawn creep, and Terran command centers now can turn into planetary fortress. Although all these are avoidable their just new things to look out for. Examples would be like moving your worker under the command center so it cannot land. O and the annoying toss thing with the assimilater is now a waste of time does not really work. What still has me is the queen’s ability to boost production of units, hatcheries now can have 7 lava. to be fair the Terran have addons to boost production as well and the toss have crono boost, but still zerg’s ability to rebuild in SC2 is not to be under estimated and is Superior to the other races. Because of armor types and passive abilities of certain units micro is quite possibly more important, which also leads to an increased need for a diversity in your army. with out the presence of the goliath and kind of the dragon air has become at times problematic.

I am currently top ten Gold class not the not class but next to it. Balancing is coming down to it’s finnal stages no one race seem to have much if any edge over another any longer. The only race that seems to have a edge would be Terran V. Zerg this this likely do to a number of reasons. One patch number 7 gave thors AOE and two previously to this mutalisks were highly effective against Terran. So once zerg players figure out that mutalisks are not quite so effective they will adapt and this edge will likely disappear. Something I have not liked so far is the nerfing of the templar like the smaller strom AOE and the archons loss of AOE damage. Ghosts now fire off EMPs and are lower on the tech tree EMPs now take off 100 shield, 100 engergy, and uncloak units. Things of note reaper rushes don’t seem to be that effective so far and this game is much faster paced.
