get over bw. they should honestly start banning ppl for mentioning bw stuff in sc2 threads.

The Thor change is mind blowing. They were useful enough against Mutalisks and now they're like a ground mothership. They might become useless, who knows. The Goliath will have to do instead now. :p

Idk a lot of all of this seems fishy. Though pro leveling gaming might be more fun to watch.

Hmm, I don't like the sound of the changes to the Thor. It sounds like it's essentially a hero unit now, which has no place in Starcraft. And its air splash was actually one of the key ingredients in the ZvT match-up. Really bad decision to mess with that imo.

While I am upset about the thor changes as well, I think that tanks and warhounds will fill the role nicely. I also think warhounds will actually make mech vs toss viable. It'll be interesting.

Wow, the trailer looks extra average. Looks like I won't be in a hurry to play the campaign.

E.G., the whole thing is about Kerrigan randomly wanting vengeance despite her being changed back to normal is kooky and arbitrary.

The HOTS units look interesting, but as always it's hard to tell what the game will be like until we see some more people playing it.

Thor change is just hilarious. I as a protoss player going to laugh at Terrans. Now they will know how it feels to have 1 expensive and useless unit in your army. Happy that mothership is gone. Very sad for Carriers but maybe they just had to go. Also so far least changes to Protoss?

Retired Units
As we add units to the multiplayer game, sometimes it’s necessary to remove units or alter others’ abilities to maintain game balance and eliminate redundancy. In the current design of Heart of the Swarm, the protoss are not able to deploy Motherships and Carriers, though these and other units that don’t exist in Heart of the Swarm multiplayer will still be available in Wings of Liberty multiplayer and the solo campaign.


I seem to recall, that they were planning to reserve the new single-player-campaigns for people who purchased the respective expansions, while keeping the multiplayer-part of the SC2-series consistent (unit-wise).

Did they change that policy at some point, or is there another explanation for the term "Wings of Liberty multiplayer"?

If only they'd left motherships in, we could have tempest-toilet. D:

Zerg units definitly look awesome! Love the look and abilities of the Viper.
But what exactly does "needs lair tech" mean? Do I simply need a lair for it to be build from larvae or from the hatch itself (like a queen) or do I need a spire (which I can build once I reach lair tech)?

Protoss units are quite interesting. I really like the idea of the Oracle as well as the Replicant. Could be some awesome strategies involving these two. The tempest seems good for a lategame unit even though I am sad to see the Carrier go. I don't understand why they got rid of the mothership though. Sure they could have changed the abilites and still keep it. Why take the mothership away but introduce the hero Thor? <-- don't like that move. I think each race should have one hero unit. Even if it is mostly for fun matches.

I myself play mostly Terrain and am pretty dissapointed with the Terrain changes so far. My favorte units are the Raven and the Ghost and so far Raven hasn't received much love (a slightly faster Seeker Missile - ok) and the Ghost's cloak change seems... I don't know. Would have to playtest that one. Could be good could be bad.
The new units however seem rather aweful - at least designwise. God the new Warhound looks so ugly... Ugh! The Battlehellion... well are we playing transformers now? And the Shredder... to turtle I'd rather use a Siege Tank, I guess. Don't know maybe it can be useful but another stationary defense... Terran already has enough of this with Bunkers and Siege Tanks...

Aww shizzle, protoss not deploying carriers or motherships that's crazy. All the bronze players can not win now. jkjk. Tempest & Oracle look cool, the Oracle especially for harrasing but the health of the Oracle is important to know.
