+ Model size reduced to match new radius.

* ZERG
o Roach
+ Supply count increased from 1 to 2.

User Interface
* Several Hotkey changes have been made (German client only).

Bug Fixes
* Fixed a crash which sometimes occurred when quitting the program.

Nothing too major except for the Roach supply increase. Glad I don't play as Zerg.

Glad they fixed the bug that "sometimes" occured when quitting.

There's also going to be another ladder/user reset in a couple of weeks, probably when they bring out 3v3 and 4v4.

Funky

pretty happy seeing that Roach change, PvZ is my worst matchup by far hopefully this helps me 8)

it's good that they made vortex suck up the forcefields too, some crazy stuff was possible. wasn't a huge deal cause motherships don't see alot of play but check this out:

that crash bug was really a pain in the hole too

Ouch! Had the vortex piss me off before but nothing like that luckily.

Pity Battlenet is still down, was hoping to get some play in tonight.
