The problem with the warhound isn't that it hard counters stalkers, it's that it is basically cost effective vs every ground unit. It is fast, has high DPS and high HP, and is incredibly supply efficient - literally its only weakness is that it can't shoot air. | ||

That mothership core is the most expensive sentry I have ever seen. I also like that is has a "grow up" or become "awesome button". If the widow mine has range six like before, there are only a handful of units that could kill it without setting it off. | ||

If the widow mine has range six like before, there are only a handful of units that could kill it without setting it off. The range is 5 from a few months ago link My question is whether or not you can take out the mine between delay of setting it off and impact. For example, in BW, when you go within the range of Spider Mines, you still have a fraction of a second to take them out. I was wondering if it is the same for Widow Mines so that if you trip them, you can still neutralize them. | ||

I'll wait for more definitive confirmation before I start pouring the QQ. | ||

I would hope so, it would be a real bummer if they just automatically hit, with no chance to focus them down on the way in. They should be treated as an "enemy unit" imo, but force a player to issue the attack command on them. Rude if you are not looking or on move command. Manageable if your on the ball with your scouting unit. | ||

Yeah, I had a felling they would going to be pushed back in the tech tree. I don't know about 2 supply, but I guess we will need to see the glory of the AOE to decide that. Ever pro that played with them said they were super powerful and could totally you up in the early game. Hell, there was a report that Flash just lost to them flat out and laughed about it. | ||
