[Idea] - Buff al Battlecruiser
MVP
It's a new year, and it's time we take a serious look at one of the Unbuffables: the beloved Cattlebruiser. I believe I have two simple changes that will buff this unit in a meaningful way without making it even remotely overpowered.
Battlecruiser
- Attack speed decreased by half. Ground attack increased to 16 from 8. Air attack increased to 12 from 6.
- Range increased to 7 from 6.
The changes in attack are critical. By doubling the damage of each shot but cutting the attack speed in half, we leave the direct attack damage completely untouched. However, with this change we:
1. Increase the damage of the initial volley substantially and
2. Make the attack scale much better vs armor.
This would literally turn the Battlecruiser into a powerhouse without making it even remotely overpowered, since its counters would still take it down just as quickly, albeit perhaps not shrugging off its return fire so easily.
The change in range is to help the Battlecruiser micro. Most of its counters are of equal range or greater. A simple +1 range buff would greatly help the Battlecruisers stay alive and fight back.
Let me and Blizzard know what you think! Give feedback, support the ideas if you like them, or offer alternative ideas if you don't.
