After messing around with it for a bit, you suddenly realize how dangerous a DT in a zerg's mineral line actually is, it moves SO fast when you see it compared to the hero DTs.
Here is a video of the gif, it's slightly extended in case you wanna see more:
As for why Hero DTs are slower than a regular DT? I have no idea, anyone have any guesses?
Iirc Zeratul acts strange in many ways. Doesn't he also has a delay with his attack? Like that there is a small pause after the animation finishes and before the damage is applied?
Ah wow pretty cool.... Maybe BW has some kind of aging simulation program wich makes older units move slower cuz, you know, they are old and tired. Another important issue I want to adress is the following, I see 3 DT-s, the regular Protoss Dark Temlar, Zeratul, and a third one wich I see some ppl reffer as Hero DT, wich to me is just the same as the regular dark templar, except for the name that has no "protoss" in it. In my mind the only hero DT was always Zeratul, the same as if someone sais hero Vulture I instantly think of vulture Jim... so, who is this Hero DT? could it be the dark templars we got to use in the vanilla version missions? If that's the case I think I know the reason for the difference of speed between the 2 heroes and the Protoss Dark Templar
i love how you're playing widescreen broodwar with hd graphics in 2018 but you still recorded this manually with a phone. some things never change i guess
The "hero" DT is just the model that was used in the vanilla missions. When DTs were added to the game as buildable unit with BW, their stats were altered to better balance them:

damage: 45(+1) → 40(+3)
HP/shields 40/80 → 80/40
movement speed 4px/frame → 5px/frame (I think)
The regular DT, is moving too fast, isn't the fastest one in the middle or am i missing something? That is how it was lined up in the description
i believe all of the 'hero' units retain their 1.0 (sc)/1.04 (bw) characteristics
try racing magellan (sv hero) vs a normal science vessel - the normal science vessel should be faster in accelerating if the bw patch notes are correct

If you look in the editor, each hero is a totally distinct and separate unit from their regular unit counterpart, so changing one has no impact on the other.
