No one. Same goes for most LotV units. They added units for the sake of adding units rather than to fill design holes. | ||

I mean since terran is ONLY bio and ONLY bio is complete, who needs to mech when you can make the "Oh so complete" bio all the time, is not like people like to play with different strats and compositions right? | ||

//Has anyone else noticed that the guns on the Thor's back are 100% useless in game now? How can they go to release with such an iconic element of the Thor never being able to fire in game? //If Thors were cut, I think Siege tank Siege mode should get anti-massive damage bonus on top of the anti-armor bonus, as some kind of answer for Ultras. | ||

I've seen the transform thing a few times now, and I think I like it. But part of me thinks the design needs to be closer to what the unit already is, because of impending release date. CYCLONE TRANSFORM IDEA - Get rid of lock on - Transform (A) is anti-ground attack. - Transform (B) is anti-air attack. - Tweak each mode so that it behaves and feels different. Or you could make the Cyclone a mech healer, like the medivac. It's pea-shooter kinda looks like a grappling hook. Maybe give it a grappling hook ability to micro mech units around with it (sieged tanks, mainly, and this assumes medivac tanks go away). Doing this would remove the Cyclone's attack completely. Rework cost, etc ... But, I would gladly forfeit the Cyclone for a Tier (3) unit that doesn't suck. | ||

Just think about the LotV tourneys starting from November 10th when it's released. | ||

Cyclones just make a weak-ass pewpew sound and you can barely see the projectiles. Balance and design issues aside, the unit desperately needs another FX pass. 100% agree with that ! | ||

Im still in the camp that not everyone is playing lotv, i mean really, im not seeing anything but archon from real pros. If nothing changes by christmas, im sure we can either call this post a good shout or let the community figure out the cyclones viability throughout the game. im always convinced when blizz release new units, they know the spot its trying to fill so the play testers utilise it in this manner and it has their desired results. Give it to 1 million players of varying skill and then, as you put it, a by product of design people start the abuse or infact the total wrong way to utliise it. Im pretty sure one of their play tests would have been mass cyclone and over many games it didnt seem to be a problem if the other guy knew or scouted it was happening | ||
