Thanks to Reddit sleuths, everyone can try the LotV test maps by following instructions here.

Note: This is not a beta key, it is simply access to Vs. AI and a Unit Tester. I have no idea how cool with this Blizzard is or is not, use at your own risk.

Yeah but you're not going to have just tanks sitting around with nothing else there. Once the Adapt teleports in the biggest damage will be off potential friendly fire. Hellions will still be there to kill the Adapt.

Of course, all im saying is protoss has a lot of ways to engage really, really well vs mech, or so it appears for now. Even just getting one tank volley on adepts instead of immortals/archons could be huge.

From the BNet store? I'd imagine not until they have a release date locked in. I don't even know if we'll know that until Blizzcon.

People really need to let the beta play and simmer for a bit prior to freaking out with theorycraft

I would be very surprised if people mech in TvP. Blizzard gave protoss 2 more units that are good at exploiting siege tanks.



The adapt and disruptor? Adapt just tickles armored units and I don't think the Disruptor one-shots tanks.

The Disruptor ability allows it to get on top of tanks, it doesn't one shot the tanks but it does leave them with only 15 hp and the splash is big enough to hit 3-4 tanks. Tanks either have to unsiege to kill it or if surround tanks can attack it the splash damage end up killing off the 15 hp tanks.

Adepts aren't going to be alone either. I like that the hard counter in hardened shield was removed but protoss still has too many options that are good vs siege tanks and mech in general.

Forgot about these. Carriers and tempests will also give mech a hard time. Mass cyclones might solve the anti air problems, but I'm not looking forward to it because I don't like the unit. If feels like a mix between the vulture and goliath but less fun than either one of them.

That said, all of those can be countered with good tank spread and positioning, so at least it's a more interesting mechanic than now.

what i especially fear about the new economy is that it requires maps to be bigger because the player need more bases which may result in more passive games with less early aggression.

keep in mind all this stuff is still in beta....they could wipe adebts shade ability altogether....could make it slower, all kinds of stuff could happen along with the fact that there is another terran unit still up for grabs that could easily complement mech play

Wait, 5(+5) x2 Mauraders and 8 armor Ultralisks?

Apparently I'm going to need to rethink my TvZ.

Really excited for all these changes though!

I think it is 8, people are saying how it has +4 armor now from his upgrade, while he starts with 1 and gets +3 from carapace upgrades. Unless people are mistaken and he gets +3 from his upgrade.

If it stays like that, you will definitely need Widow Mines, Cyclones, Tanks and Thors to deal with Ultralisks, Marauders won't cut it now and Marines will just tickle Ultras.

No, not to my knowledge. It's actually quite bizarre. The beta starts tomorrow and there are quite a few people like myself who even know their account is going to be flagged but it has not happened yet. My email was contacted by ESL for WCS placements and there are roughly 120 other people who need to be given access as they have already been notified by ESL as well. It's really weird considering the client is available to a few... the thing starts tomorrow... It's honestly kind of worrisome haha >.>

I assume they're just going to do it all at once on the 31st, though that is really odd considering we don't know what time it starts/how to dl client or really anything else at all yet..


Typical morons from Blizzard.. they're too busy making money out of WoW, Hearthstone and whatever else. What happened to their passion for StarCraft?

Inform yourselves people before you say such things..

Not sure if this was supposed to be in reply to both of us but as I mentioned ESL has already said many accounts, including mine, are to be flagged for the beta. The point we were both making is that it is incredibly weird that the beta starts tomorrow and we don't even know how to DL the client, when it starts or anything else. I could really kind of care less since I have a 100meg fiber optic service, but it does make you wonder about the way the information has been provided so far.

It'll appear on the Bnet launcher when your account is flagged. There's going to be a new Region for the LotV beta. At least that's what it was like for the D3 RoS and WoW Beta.

I feel bad that im still not hyped for this release. I feel the cores sc2 issues are still not solved. I like the mineral patch changes and starting workers, but thats about it. Lurkers back seem ok, protoss units seem really not interesting (great a leblanc in Sc2 that I think will barely see play, seems likea nerfed version of a DT), weird exploding air unit and changes not that interesting. Reavers not coming back and collusus still in the game.

Im not sure if Im missing something, but i still dont feel it wil lbe so much of a different game than it currently is. Am I wrong?
