I like the phoenix upgrade, but if it was in the cybernetics core and took a longer time to get, rather then in the fleet bacon as that would limit the use of the range upgrade to only late game.

Quick Comments

On the phoenix:
how will then the phoenix buff affect TvP?
phoenix will be included in the ball and medivacs will go down much faster,
how will it fair against vikings?

us terrans uses turrets when going out of base, iiric toss have cannons?

On the snipe:
On the lower league levels, rarely do we reach sniping ultra/broods,
guess we dont have enough apm for it actually,
now that we know it'll be harder, we will be more inclined to finish the game early..just saying

I think that's the intention, small amounts of mutas can be handled by small groups of phoenix or blink stalker, but that massive ball they get up and wait until you move out and base trade with is countered this way.

Also gives the zerg opportunity to fake going mass muta, to force the phoenix w Beacon reaction and hit with an infestor roach hydra army or something.

All just speculation, have to see how its played out once the patch hits.
