War3station had a short interview with TH000, for talking about the Balance in the new patch. Let’s see what did TH000 say.
Only Night Elf getting buffed!
TH000: First of all, I think there is only Night Elf getting buffed. About the Strategies in each Match-Up, Orc vs. Undead and Human vs. Night Elf will have a very big change, these two match-ups get the biggest influence; and then followed by Human vs. Undead, Human vs. Orc.
Crypt Lord’s changes have a greater impact in 2v2, but the effect in 1v1 remains us to see. Blizzard only made “fine-tuned” in this patch, so the changes will not be particularly big, it’s same as the changes after 1.31.
We can see that Blizzard’s balance changes are around the low win rate match-ups, I think it’s a good idea to follow this direction.
We just need to create a new strategy.
Q: Why the nerf ot the main strategy – Mountain King and mass Riflemen doesn’t make a big impact?
TH000: At this stage, this strategy (MK with mass Riflemen) is actually using against Orc and Undead, but the win rate is lower than 50%. So it doesn’t matter if it’s affected, we just need to create a new strategy.
Q: How about the changes of Items?
TH000: The changes to the Items are great. Mana Potion often reverse the situation. It’s pretty good to give it a little neft. As for the new Items, we usually will not get it in tournament, and can only be used once, so it’s not a big deal. The Alchemist’s ultimate is strong is because its Cooldown is short. This kind of items is too weak compared to the Inferno.
Now the entire Warcraft system is not suitable for the ultimate.
TH000: As for other changes, I feel there are a lot of buffs to the ultimate, I don’t think they will make an intuitive change. The main reason of it is because we always play 3 heroes. Only Night Elf doesn’t often play three heroes, so their both heroes may get the ultimate.
Now the entire Warcraft system is not suitable for the ultimate, those skills only come for the game longer than 30 minutes. But it is undeniable that, if the game run into the late stage, the enhancement of the ultimate may bring higher appreciation.
Q: Which unit is so bad?
TH000: (without thinking) We may see the change of Frost Wyrm in next patch.
(Weeping because too happy.)
