Protoss

-Mothership Core
The cost of Purify is now 100. The duration of Purify has been lowered to 25 seconds. The damage of Purify has been increased from 25 to 45.

-Oracle
Entomb’s duration has increased to 30 seconds. The health of Entombed nodes has increased from 100 to 130. The duration of Revelation has increased from 30 to 45 seconds. We fixed a bug where the oracle was not correctly classified as a Psionic unit.

Terran

-Battle Hellion
While in Battle mode, the hellion is now classified as a Biological unit.

-Widow Mine
Splash damage has increased from 35 to 60.

Zerg

-Viper
We fixed a bug where the viper was not correctly classified as a Psionic unit.

Wow, Battle Hellion and Widow Mine buffs are crazy! ;D
Now we certainly get the Factory firebat.

Good job Blizzard, you're really encouraging that nostalgia by using Broodwar Terran in StarCraft 2.

I wanted to edit my first post and write "DemoSquid will be mad"...
Too late.

Huhhhhhhh wtf? Next thing you know you'll be able to heal vikings.

Me? Mad? Don't be ridiculous. I'm ecstatic that Blizzard is finally just admitting they're fucking incompetent by bringing back old units. Where's my fucking Dragoon you lazy motherfuckers?

[The_Blade]

This Hellion buff will destroy Zerg.

I agree with this patch EXCEPT for the battle hellion into bio. Just give it more armor or something instead (make different units different, please. Firebats are Brood War and WoL campaign units).

[TheProgramer]

I'm not being sarcastic when asking this: Why is the hellion change a buff?

[Pr0nogo]

It's a change from mechanical into biological, which means Medivacs can heal them.

[Sheliek]

I can't wait to hear Blizzard's explanation for that hellion buff, lorewise.

Biosteel? Cool, how come it's only biosteel when it's walking? Pilot is more directly vulnerable? Cool, then why does it get more armour and health?
