It does seem balanced, and not completely outrageous. They arent getting dropped easily. I really miss them :-/ I'd rather have scourage back then lurkers. | ||

Like I said, if the Scourge were to be implemented, it would have to function drastically different from SC1. | ||

The things actually aren't quite as epic as I thought they'd be TBH... with all the gliding attacks I thought it might be damn near impossible to actually stop scourge, but perhaps not. On a mild tangent, is anyone else bothered that MUTAlisks don't MUTAte anymore? | ||

I think with a bit of tweaking, they could fit scourge into the next expansion, but my guess is that they'll be favoring new units over old ones. | ||

But when we consider adding new units, new mechanics, and what not. We must see that yes, there may be difficulties as the way things are now, but that is only if you stick to how things are currently. What I am trying to get at (and having difficulties) is that, people must adapt and change. Same with broodwar and the addition of lurkers and such. You think if someone mentioned a lurker, they would feel it was imbalanced as it currently is? Of course, but builds changed and adapted. Collosai are used because they work, but they are not the only unit that works. We shouldn't be bogged down entirely on the merit that it will be difficult against collosai, since this game has only been out for little more then a week. A few things to look at. Zerg are very gas intensive. So to use scourge, presumably, it would require a spire. Which costs gas, and on top of that, scourge were always heavy on the gas. So yes, in the video, we see a lot of scourge. But those scourge in that number would have killed the zergs gas. If the zerg planned on have any units like infestors, hydra, or ultralisk, there is no way the zerg could make a ton of them. Unless they had nearly all bases. | ||

Why players always thought about how this for zerg would be OP but never for other races. :| " No Overkill would make this and this units OP " Think a second about how no overkill already make a lot of units in the game good. Beside of tanks of course. That's really not the major concern about Scourge if you ask me. | ||

The point of the game is to be fun not to have new units and graphics, and if adding scourge and lurkers made it more fun then why not put them in? Zerg has changed so much already just cuz 2 units come back doesn't make it a sc1 clone. If you replaced the marine with Richard Simmons would you be like Ohh myy gooddd i luv Richard Simmons Marine is so old and boring... Blizzard never thinks of functionality - look at bnet. They go for being different and looking cool instead but that is another story to tell to another retard The point is far more than just to create a fun game. Otherwise they would have just taken BW and remade it 100% with new graphics. BW was fun... You say yourself that Correuptor is boring and crappy. So rather than bring back the fucking scourge why don't we make suggestions to make the corruptor funner. Are we all so brain dead that we need to bring back ideas from the previous game? It sounds like a HUGE amount of people think that SC2 should just be SC1 in better graphics. Very boring. We need to get creative, unique and interesting. Please let's make the corruptor fun and useful rather than just making the scourge. | ||

BTW, if there is no overkill, these scourge may be a bit too easy to use (no more cloning ie skill, just 1 a into destruction or air units. | ||
