- Love the Ovi drops but really we should buff the speed, on huge maps Ovi doesnt even get to scout anymore. - Great Spore Crawler change, tho i would like 30 flat damage since Zerg AA is really weak - I like the ghost ability mostly because, this will end the MMM era in late game , finally they will get a tier 3 bio unit vs a tier 3 zerg unit, then just spam more tier 1 units all game long. - Viper's nerf is perfect, but seriously either reduce the price a bit or the supply cuz 3 is huge. Cons: Medivacs right now are way to OP, Protoss really has no answer now and Zerg will struggle even more. Ravagers are still useless and i would like for them to remove this unit and just add as upgrade the corrosive bille to Roaches, give Zerg a core unit that its really a need, more AA is a must ! | ||

Well, Penumatized Carapace is Hatch tech. It doesn't seem too expensive, but you'll need two gas or something. And I was originally thinking about using the first or second (slow) overlord, on 2 player maps. Will test it soon. | ||

It will empower Bio but also that Mech units. The problem I see is that it will turn almost any capital unit into shit, and specially heavy Protoss units (Achons, Immortals, Skytoss) that are already shitty vs a Terran with enough ghosts. Lowering 3 armor barely makes a difference with mech because most units deal high damage but have low DPS, it would only give tanks a about 8% more damage where it will give marines 50% more damage. Even the units you mention don't get that high a boost that makes the spell really worth it over more siege tanks or cyclones. So yeah its made as a 1 aspect ability made to work with 1 composition. Also I wonder if they plan to make overlord drops different in any way, I think they will be giving drops extra speed but only available at higher tech in a next patch. | ||

For discussion's sake, here's some movement speeds to compare: Overlord: 0.586 Thor: 1.875 Upgraded overlord: 1.88 Marine/hydralisk/roach/zealot (no upgrades, off creep): 2.25 Medivac: 2.5 Slow warp prism: 2.953 Upgraded warp prism: 3.375 Boosted medivac: 4.25 Overlords, even with the upgrade, are still really, really slow. | ||

If you cast it on cyclone it will have 1 armor (-1) so effectively 0 and not -2. If you cast it on a marine it doesn't even spawn as it would do nothing. (this is with 0 additional armor upgrades ) | ||

Obviously this stupid drone thing isn't a good replacement, but Snipe was really really REALLLY boring to begin with and I'm glad they're working it out of the game. It was better than feedback  | ||

http://gfycat.com/TameCanineBufflehead Due to the retargeting and low energy cost it might actually be useful to blanket spam them in a big fight with a few ghosts in the lategame when everything has +3. Does require individual unit targeting to cast them though so it's not easy. | ||

What i absolutely like about it is the potential for zerg to be agressive from the early game and not in an all-in or cheese way | ||

Maybe it's time to reintroduce the 100% mana depletion from EMP. They should go away from the ghost vs hightemplar fight 100%. When the armee all relie on those few spellcasters it becomes quite boring to watch and play. | ||
