Dear blizzard please remove this patch and let the game be what is used to be. I’m not so good at the game i know that. But this new patch has taken almost everything i have tried to learn over the years and basically thrown it in the trash can… everything seems unbalanced and boring. My race of choise is zerg, and i have heard that they are better now… perhaps in the pro leauge and the high ranks, but now online for me and other low ranks is almost unplayable.
i hope this game can be fun again…

Which parts do you feel like is weaker somehow?
The part where 95% of the players are not the 5% which participate in e-sports, the part where the game has been speeding up as years go by and now feels like watching a movie in 3x runspeed, the part where you can loose in 5 seconds an army you made for 10 minutes only because you misclicked or your attention got distracted for one second when your cat jumped on your lap while you play, the part where instead of having fun when you play even when you loose but feel like you tried and manage and use the army and the strategy, is replaced with the race of who is the fastest typist and units die and pop off like soap bubbles if you touch them and need to be replaced.
Yesterday I played against a friend, TvP. My friend had 14 warpgates, each reloading units for around 15 seconds. This is completely unfair, as he would easily repel every single attack. There was just no way for me to win, because even if I won a battle, I would need reinforcements or get wrecked by his brand new army. His 14 Warpgates would have been too few if we were on the old patch, but nowadays they are a small investment with huge benefits, enough to win a game.
Gateway units are powerful when they have the upgrades, but they are imbalanced when spammed like in the new patch. The point of Protoss is to make few, but strong and expensive units, not making them as if they were zerglings.
For now, this is the worst part of the patch. The 8 worker start is surprisingly easy to adapt to.
