Locusts better after patch

What the -Yoink- were you guys thinking making them better? They needed a -Yoinking!- nerf, not to get a damage and health increase. Are you out of your minds?! You nerf forge but leave the bloodlust locusts the same, that is just crazy. 343, Turn your -Yoinking!- brains on.

Starting to wonder how rigorous their balance tests are… mass locusts is -Yoinked!-. Cyclops’ do nothing to them now.

I hate to break it to you, but they got a nerf…

Locusts
o Basic DPS slightly reduced
o Line of sight range reduced
o Weapon range reduced

In game is much different than what they are reporting. Nothing has changed, and it seems as though they are better now.

They seem better with a line of sight and range nerf as well as a dps nerf? I mean I guess with Cyclops and Hunters being tamed a bit that might be the case… But they most definitely did get another nerf for damage and range since beta.

How do people struggle with locusts?
Just spam Air and roflstomp them and win the game.

Holy wow, locusts are still insane! Got beat twice by these last night. And anyone who says spam air. Locusts/ anti air combo 1v1 kills that.

Also will add when it is the freaking shipmaster that teleports away your army every engagement
