What do you guys think?

Regardless of the other changes, blink ultras are quite possible the dumbest thing since destructible rocks, except for collapsible rocks of course...

Blink ultras sound fucking amazing, dunno what you're smoking. Just imagine like 5-6 ultras suddenly popping out behind your army, sounds scary as hell.

Seens like blizzard did not notice that protoss LACKS DETECTION...badly....and protoss WILL need MORE detection to deal with this kinda OP baneling...Man, i'm the only one that sees that when toss is building his ONLY detection unit he is not making units that makes possible to win the fight???

But man, the possiilities now are amazing...seens like terran is not the ONLY race with a lot of openings. Really seeing foward,

Hope i'm included in BETA lol

really wanna help this expansion to be as amazing as it can be !

The baneling burrow move upgrade will be "at the hive" according to Browder, same thing with hydralisk speed.

So if marauders are gone, what do Terrans use vs. Protoss? I can't see the battle mode for Hellion and warhounds faring great against a Protoss Death Ball.

I really like most of these changes. I feel like the burrowed banelings moving around is going to be waaayyy OP. Or it might just make people start to play with more observers/ravens. We'll see. Well start to see a lot more people in lower leagues doing better as zerg though.

Terran will have to improvise....as we protoss had and zerg, all this whole time that terran was kinda imba (various openings, all-ins that doesn't look like all in because mules, full detection and instant scoult and 1-1-1)

we (toss and zerg) had to deal with all that day by day, trying to win by micro, by new openings, by using every unit in this game....same goes to Zerg....

Now time to Terran do the same...Improve, play and realize new strat !

Wait, marauders are gone? I didn't see that in the OP, is this a recent revelation?

The oracle really seems like it ought to be a detector, and maybe that'll be patched in

I'm confused what they mean when they say: "Late Game Zealot powerful vs Terran".

Are they saying it is currently too powerful, and this will be fixed in HotS. Or that Zealots are getting some sort of buff late game?

Yep it's certainly OP. HotS is out and professionals have played it for quite awhile. In addition, Blizzard has compiled numerous statistics showing that it's without a counter. The observer has been removed because no protoss want to build it because they feel detection is beneath them.

Man, the game is gonna change so much with HotS. I think it just sunk in just how different it'll be O.o

Can't say I'm completely blown away by the new terran units(terran player), but God dammit do those Zerg changes look sexy!

Disagree completely i think it looks like it wont change much at all. The new units look particularly bland and unlike BW they are simply removing units they feel dont serve a purpose, which is too bad. Should have designed new units to augment existing design. I guess when you design a game as poorly as wings of liberty you have no choice though.

I think the viper is kind of a dumb name that doesnt really fit the description of a zerg. Reminds me more of a terran unit (vulture, raven etc). Wouldnt mind a name change.
