Basically a moving shredder. Not uninteresting but vastly different (and highly unpractical if it does friendly fire). | ||

Maybe I'm being too harsh, but to me it really seems like it's somehow missing something. Honestly, the Reaver wasn't a perfectly designed unit. It was very early game specific, and typically only used in the early game (apart for some specific Corsair/Reaver/Carrier PvZ build in BW). Disruptor feels like a unit that is slightly easier to learn, but has a really high skillcap as well. Useful through all the stages of the game and lots of countermicro. With my experience with it so far, it's by far the most awesome unit I have ever seen in an RTS. | ||

- without the shade that doesn't bring a lot. - with the bounce that activates when it kills something from the start. Numbers would have to be tweaked of course but it would be quite interesting to have that last hit thing that you get in MOBAs and WC3 in SC2 ; it would be important for the adept to give the last shot for it to shine the most. At least I think that'd be more interesting than that shade thing that's just another teleport. | ||

It's mainly designed for low supply/low number of units games, and controling which unit gets the last hit on small units like marine or lings once the army supply is >30 is kinda difficult. | ||

Adepts are fun to use early on. Pleasantly surprised by how entertaining the disruptor is to play with and against. As a zerg the cyclone doesn't bother me much but it seems terrifying in TvT/TvP. Blizzard should bring back BW lurker burrow and attack sounds. Sound has a lot to do with the experience, and a lot of people agree that SC2, while decent, has a lot to be desired on the audio side. Units should feel powerful and unique. | ||

Ehhh maybe updated versions of the old sounds. A new attacking sound would go a long way for my enjoyment of the unit | ||

Oh boy no. Another harass unit for Protoss? Why? Protoss needs a unit which is capable of supporting some GW units in small fights against bio, where you need a little bit of splash :/ Damn them, I hope beta will reveal this and they change it, but I am afraid of the result(hint - phoenixes, oracles...) | ||
