observers should be either completely invisible or easy to notice.
this game is an rts and no amount of practice will make you better at spotting observers if you have poor eyesight. observers in my opinion are fine from a balance perspective of races, but not between players because if you have better eyesight you have a much better chance at spotting them.
and in case your a noob an observer on your army can easily cost you the game.
there really isnt a counter argument i can think of for this, you can say “OH JUST MAKE A RAVEN” but that misses the point that its unfair.

You should go play something turn based where you don’t have all of this imba.
I’m getting old and can’t apm as well as I used to. That isn’t fair!

well thats different you can get better apm just by practicing and having apm doesnt equal skill.
please tell me in what way is it fair that if my eyes suck i cant see an observer.
How does it miss the point?
So you have bad eyesight. Get glasses like normal people do?
Next thing you know blizzard is going to decrease the amount of APM someone can do by locking it.
Because of silver platter babies like yourself cant keep up with it.

i looked up the definition it means when someone wants something handed to them without effort, what amount of effort do i have to put in to spot observers?
LOLMAO you had to look that up?!
You missed my point. My apm was +100 over what it averages now, 7 or 8 years ago. That’s not a matter of practicing. I’m literally getting old. My capabilities won’t be equal to my self of yesteryear. Momma blizzard can’t fix that for me.
How about you go pay for Lasik instead of crying about how your eyes are garbage

glasses are going to help me spot a tiny shimmer on my screen?
They enhance your eyesight, so… yes.
Also, you can put everything to lower graphics quality to see shimmers of observers allot easier.
does it really? thats also stupid if thats true.
Yes there are specific settings proffesional terrans use for that reason.

I mean hes right. Observers are still too speedy and permacloak is completly op for that cost.
observers should be cloaked for a second then they uncloak for a second and should be cloaked again for a second. automatically. this is fair for everyone and no one gets frustrated anymore.
Terrans feel a warm stream of satisfaction when they kill the obs and protoss are delighted that their cr4p unit finally died.

Oh no, it’s so frustrating to fight against observers!
It’s not like a single Terran scan is frustrating to fight against right?
Or, it’s not like that early overlord going to your natural seeing everything is frustrating at all right?
Protoss’s map vision is the weakest. Let’s not nerf it more shall we?
Pro player literally makes scouting pylon because Protoss is the only race that need supply to scout it’s own half of the map.

Next patch; Blizzard requires you to enter your medical records (we [Blizzard] won’t sell it to data collection agencies… promise) and the game will become blurry, slow down or even automate based on the average health of all players in the match up.

Well you can say whatever you like, but this would actually show the glaring issues with balance.
Is funny you only mention harmless observers but don’t mention cloaked ghost sniping and CALLING DOWN A FREAKING NUKE!!
…and for the record I love these two units, they also are classic starcraft units, so if you don’t like them then you don’t like the game, just quit and move on, stop crying or get some glasses for god sake.
