Battles were becoming heavies vs skuttles. It was getting a bit silly. Heavies got some nerfs, and so so did skuttle.

The main philosophy behind the nerfs are that if you have accurate mid ranged units (LLT's, felons, Banishers, etc) in the area, they should be able to snipe the skuttle before it lands, rather than relying purely on bumping into the skuttle before it jumps. Much like with the roach (Though obviously you need more firepower).

I agree with this, as I think that the bumping-into-stuff mechanic is really stupid. Skuttle is hard to use well, yes, but it relies entirely on the USERS micro and choices, rather than on the targets micro or choices.

So, if you support a heavy unit with enough appropriate units, you can now catch the skuttle mid-air.

Personally
I
think
the
skuttle
needs
a
bit
of
a
rethink
in
general,
we
can't
keep
relying
on
the
cheap
gimmick
of
cloaking
+
huge
alpha
to
counter
heavies,
where
the
only
role
of
light
units
in
this
mechanic
is
to
bump
into
things.
