[04:25]

TH000: The nerf of the TC and Wisps are too much.

Infi: The change of the Chimaera is also so big.

TH000: I think that change (Chimaera’s change) is ok.

[05:47]

TH000: In this PTR, the nerf of the TC and Wisps are too much, I don’t think it will be in the next real patch.

Infi: The change of the War Stomp will influence Orc vs. Undead.

TH000: It will influence a lot in Orc vs. Human as well! It’s very bad for the Orc in the match-up vs. Human and Undead.

Infi: I think if the Human play mass Breakers, the influence will not be that big.

TH000: In short, I think these two nerfs will not be in the next real patch.

[06:55]

TH000: I believe after this patch, the Orc will still be the weakest race.

Infi: It looks better for the Orc now in the match-up vs. Night Elf.

TH000: But the match-up vs. Human and Undead are worse for the Orcs.

[10:15]

TH000: I guess the changes in this PTR related to ToD’s opinions.

Infi: Do you think Blizzard will care about ToD’s statement?

TH000: Yes.

Infi: I feel so sorry for ToD, however the patch changes, the people always blame on him.

TH000: For the patches in the past, I think he was innocent. But I don’t think he is in this time.

Infi: Really? You think he is related to this PTR?

TH000: Yes.

Infi: But according to the notes, they mentioned some people, but there is no ToD.

TH000: Really? Maybe these people think the same with ToD.

Infi: Come on, I remember that Blizzard will send you an email for asking your opinions!*

TH000: No, I haven’t seen it since long time ago. Can he tell me which way they send me?

Infi: I remember two to three months ago, they sent an email.

TH000: Really? I didn’t see it! Damn, they don’t want to ask me anymore?*

*Remark:
1. Infi said he is cool with any change, so he always doesn’t reply that email.)
2. After a minute, TH000 said that he might miss the email, since he always doesn’t check his email, communication apps, etc.

[13:35]

TH000: In short, I don’t think they will patch with all of those change; but if they really do, it would be so “cool”.

Infi: I don’t think it will influence big. Maybe it will increase or decrease 10% to 20% chance in some match-ups, but those will not make a big turnover.

TH000: The influence for Human vs. Undead is slightly smaller that Orc vs. Night Elf.
Infi: The biggest change will belong to Orc vs. Night Elf.

TH000: You must be kidding, Night Elf needs a lot of Wisps when playing against Human.

Infi: But Night Elf doesn’t often use Wisps in the fight vs. Human.

TH000: It would be a GG for Night Elf.

Infi: Night Elf use Wisps detonation is for canceling the Inner Fire, the Mana are not their priority.

TH000: Did you watch how Moon played against me and Sok? He beat us because the Wisps drained all of my casters’ Mana. If the Wisps didn’t drain our Mana completely, I would be still available to use Inner Fire again.

[14:45]

Infi: Undead killing Human’s peasants is always before the complete of Arcane Tower, so I don’t think it really changes much in this match-up.

TH000: Yes, the buff of the Arcane Tower will be more effective when playing against, Crypt Lord, Beast Master and KOTG; it will not be that effective against Death Knight and Far Seer.

Infi: Yes, I agree. I don’t think Human vs. Undead has any change.

TH000: Well, it will be changed when Undead play Crypt Lord first.

Infi: But it’s better for Human now when playing vs. Orc or Night Elf.

TH000: Let’s see if I have new homework against Crypt Lord first. And you are right, if Undead plays Death Knight first, it would not have any change.

Infi: Can you tell me any change when playing against Crypt Lord first?

TH000: Double Arcane Towers will be good, although I don’t think it’s good enough.

Infi: Maybe we can try? Or you want to try with other Undead?

TH000: Yea sure we can try. Playing against your Undead is enough, you are the ceiling of the Undead.

Infi: Oh~Then you might throw your homework into the trash can after trying with me.

TH000: Hahaha yea.

[16:30]

Infi: I think the change of the Death Knight level 2 aura will not be big.

TH000: It might be influential in playing against Night Elf, it is a very necessary skill. But in playing vs. Human or Orc, the Death Knight often goes for Death Pact.

Infi: Yea, but in overall, I don’t think it will influence much.

TH000: In short, I think this PTR nerf only the Orcs and Night Elves. And those nerfs are too big.

TH000: TC nerf was too big.

Infi: But it only changes in stunning heroes.

TH000: Yes, but the Orcs need it to have hero kill and control the field. And the more important thing is, the Orcs are really relying on their heroes, they units are weak, it’s ok that Blizzard nerf their heroes, but you have to buff their units at the same time.
.

Infi: The Mirror Image’s buff is not important, the Wild Walk is just too important for the Blade Master.

TH000: Maybe Blizzard can do it with double! Like summoning 2/4/6 Mirror Images.

Infi: Come on, it’s too crazy.

TH000: But we can see, Blizzard love double or half in recent patches, like the Beetles of the Crypt Lord, and the nerf of the Wisps in this PTR. So we might try “Double” the Mirror Image as well!
