It should NOT be easy to mindcontrol half of someones army. It is a powerful spell and their should be some degree of difficulty associated with it.
I think the ease of spell casting in SC2 has made players lazy.
I think it has been nerfed to the point it's not viable at all anymore. Just picture an infestor neural-ing a Colossus at 7 range. If you do it right you can totally see Blizzard's trollface there.
Totally agree with 2nd point. Smart casting totally wrecked the difficulty of Starcraft. It's now just about getting as 10-year-old friendly as CoD has become.

Nerfing the neural range to 7 is to address the whining of ZvT where mass thors are a viable strat once again. It is not to address the fact you can neural every single one toss's collossus haha
That's what I thought. So Blizzard decided that fixing a seemingly broken ZvP is more important than messing up the other matchup(?). NP-ing tanks and immortals aren't going to be even possible anymore either if you really think about it. 7range is also still within the attack range of Thors and Thors can 2shot an infestor too. One shot from a few hellions(which usually accompany in a mass Thors timing) allows Thors to 1shot infestors as well.
