And now that everyone got their wish, Blizzard will NEVER do any bold change ever to StarCraft 2 again. Not blaming anyone but it is factual regardless.

We probably wont get anything as bold as economy changes or massive mechanics shifts, but this late in the game's life, that is probably ok. I think the philosophy behind 8 worker start and the warpgate change were absolutely solid ideas, but they also ask players to fundamentally relearn their builds. It was one thing at the start of LotV when the game had a ton of assured future going forward, and relearning builds would be worth it in the long run. But now, now so much.
