the new patch says raynor’s level 20 talent “execute orders” will no longer hit buildings. is this change going to be permanent? this change alone is enough to just quit the game for good… 
The ult still hit buildings. The lvl 20 talent cast a Hyperion that only target heroes with trhe lowest hp.

The change to Execute Order’s Hyperion is only for the Hyperion created by Execute Orders.
Previously, it would create a standard Hyperion if there was a non-Invulnerable enemy Hero anywhere on the Battleground, even if they were not visible to Raynor.
This change makes it so that enemy Hero must be visible to Raynor, within 20 range of him, and they can now be Invulnerable for it to activate, and the Hyperion that Execute Orders creates will only target Heroes with its attacks and Yamato Cannon(which has been nerfed half way through PTR to deal approximately 50% damage, and features an updated tooltip to explain this), priotising those with the lowest health.
This will outright and completely remove the strategy seen for Raynor to respawn, run down a lane, and assault the core with his Hyperion and the Execute Orders Hyperion, as the Hyperion Execute Orders creates will not deal any damage at all to Structures. His own Hyperion cast with his Heroic will still be perfectly able to hurt Structures, but it’s just one Hyperion, which means this strategy is 50% less effective.
