For some perspective - US forum a week after the patch

Ph3lan: Hey tajj7!   Thanks for pointing this out, I also mentioned it yesterday as well in one of the 9.18 topics. The initial feedback we received about the patch on NA was very similar to what I can see here, however once people actually tried out the changes, the feedback turned much more positive. I am not saying that the patch is perfect, and we are relying on you guys to tell us what you like and don't like about it, but with such big changes you need some time to appreciate what happened and how it affects the game and how you play it.
