| Hi onelonelyrando, welcome to the forums! Sorry to hear that you're frustrated - MA is a difficult game and it's very different from ladder. Many ladder GMs and even fully professional sc2 players have had a lot of difficulty when starting out with MA. I myself lost 200+ games before getting my firs... |

Hi Starelf!
This sounds like the default 50% armor penetration (marine weapon) to me. Which map were you playing on?
As far as I know, the main map published on 8/2/19 is the most recent one, and should be identical to "Rain MA Testmap" (unless he's made some changes that I'm unaware of). |

After observing for a couple weeks, we agree with the concerns about difficulty and income disparity.
Currently looking into a few different solutions to see what's possible. Some ideas include multiple difficulty settings, day/night cycles, and income splitting.
Thanks for the feedback! |

This relies on the fact that BC and minithor are heroes in disguise - their HP scaling makes them harder to kill late game than even honeybadger or dark... |

| @Bondbrain - Just out of curiosity, have you tried using stasis wards yourself? If so, what have other people tried in order to counter you? If not, maybe it would be a good idea to try it against a strong player and see what they do. I am not saying your ideas are wrong - this is just a good way to... |

| I think nerfing stasis would be fine, it's still a relatively new game mechanic and honestly I wasn't thinking too much about balance when I first implemented it. My personal opinion would be to limit the total number by having it cost a lot more energy (like maybe 75% of the oracle's max energy), s... |

| Hi Bondbrain, welcome to the forums! Regarding stasis, I would suggest trying to trigger or destroy the wards with 1-2 units before sending a large group of units into them. Another option would be to use the diamondback's shockwave ability to destroy many wards at once from long range. Regarding me... |

| Everyone probably already knows my stance on medi, but here it is: I think it's the best designed unit in MA. Pure support unit, adds a lot of variety to engagements and imo is already relatively easy to snipe. It is used very often, but I would say that's because there is no alternative (which is w... |

However, be warned that this will probably break a lot of other hotkeys (for some reason, this happens frequently in custom maps). The stim for marines/snipers not being triggered at once is a bug, and I belie... |
