I hate them because of their name.

I hate them because they're biological 'so they can be better used with bio'.

I hate them because they two-shot workers and Zerglings by default.


I hate them because they don't benefit from the Infernal Pre-Igniter upgrade.


I wish Blizzard would nerf them. Make them armored. Nerf their HP. Nerf their damage. Remove the Biological tag.

I wish Blizzard would buff Tanks instead to help Mech.

I wish Blizzard would do something with them, because I can't stand the fact that Mech needs them as a crutch, if for no other reason.

but you would like them if they DID benefit from the pre-igniter upgrade and 1 shotted workers and zerglings by default?

No.

What I really want is for their damage to be nerfed so that they 3-shot workers, and benefit from BFH like they used to in the beta, and then get enough damage to 2-shot workers.
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

why 3 shot? That's an odd number to have in a medvac, 3 hellbats that do as much damage as hellions but are slower then them

They do have more HP, plus a shorter cool down on their attack.

Maybe this is another QQ from noob, but how come a 'hellbat' can be healed? I mean this is the first-ever unit in Starcraft history(from SC1!) that is both bio-mechanical, then can be transform into mechanical and vise versa!!! Is it even logical? A factory unit (Factory in default, should produce ONLY MECH) can be biological like Barrack units? So I think hellbat should not have Bio tag! (or somebody has to say about why Viking in ground mode and it is not bio-mechanical...)

And how come it GAINs health when transformed? Viking doesn't get any extra hp but this factory unit can? Can anyone explain this to me? (no random post like "stop QQing noob" or "Don't play SC2" please )
