Why would we want to have to relearn/rebuild our strategies that we have been developing for months for a game that is already considered to have nearly perfect game mechanics by a majority of this forum?? Someone else said " why fix what isn't broken?"; I completely agree.

I fear that many players will not want to reinvest the necessary time to learn the new strategies. I am not sure that I will...

Can't speak for you, but it should be the art of developing new strategy that makes this game worth playing. You are definitely right about the fact that there is nothing "broken". However other developers (like blizzard) have made changes against the will and wishes of their players and it usually ends up for the best in the long run. I'm not saying this is the case here, but I don't think it will literally ruin the game. I'm no ST, but I am a master league player. And the thought of this change in the games mechanics kind of excited me. It throws specials for different races into a different balance, but I would say to mod the specials and not remove the kill for wit change
