@DeltruS I've seen a hover of the skill costing 25 Energy, this makes it seem unquestionable to me. This also potentially means that the Viper can spawn with 2 casts of detection. I've personally seen people attest to both equally.
@fezvez Yes, I'll add that. Source for that would be right on Blizzard's forums/sites. (Though, personally I'd rather have overseer at lair and viper at hive :| )

If it is 4 seconds on the helion to transform that's pretty dumb. It cuts down the dynamic and the way you can use the unit into 2 non overlapping sections and is basically the same thing as either having archons or having dts/hts. They should work on increasing micro potential and balancing the game around that.

Not saying it is a bad thing the shredder needs some sort of weakness but I like the concept (would like to see the PF weakened if the terran has these but thats my opinion) At blizzcon when they were showing off the shredder I was like this thing has a horrible range its gonna hold back zealots and lings and thats it. I dont know if the roaches were taking damage at the beggining of this battle but it looks to me that they were attacking the shredders without taking damage back. If the radius right now is 3 as you say then that would make sense. That means your gonna have to have a bunker or siege tank behind them or at the bare minimum your army ready to move in and help out. Because the way it seems is anything that is ranged can kill it (well not mutas as they are 3 on range but mutas can ignore them to a degree and just fly around them)

terran units at blizzcon The shredder vs the roaches that I am talking about appears at ~12:30

Don't forget

Battlecruiser

Redline Reactor: cooldown ability, gives bc a speed boost (moves almost as fast as a muta) for a few seconds. Like a controlled charge I think

(frantically searches for source)

It's been confirmed by the people who went to blizzcon.

@terranghost Actually, I forgot I watched this video before and knew that it was much more than 3 radius... I fail. This is clearly 6 or 7. See how the Roaches are attacking at 4? And and entire line of Roaches is still able to fit into the radius, And there is still just a smidge of space behind the second line? 7 is the range of I believe all turrets/static D. So it very well may be 7 Radius O.o

@blindsniper Thank you! Any cooldown info?
