I'm excited but I'm also really worried about what all these units will do to the balance of the game. I mean, every single one is just ridiculously powerful. Zerg tier 2 (pretty much like ground Brood Lords, that can burrow too!) and a 22 range unit for late game Toss...(On Shattered, these could prolly seige your main from like above the Nexus...has crazy flashback to Thor drops on Lost Temple and heart misses a beat) I definitely forsee some ridiculously imba shit happening when the game hits... but I'm still excited! | ||

The fight where they showcased in the preview vs the toss the widow mines did almost nothing lol. I have a feeling HotS is going to be a bitch to balance. | ||

As a Zerg player, if I concentrate After this weekend, maybe the HotS custom maps get updated and we get a taste while waiting and praying we get into the beta. | ||

blizzard is crossing out all possible unit composition in TvZ mech sucks anyways and viper is gonna make tank useless so only possible TvZ unit combo terran has is MMM... and in TvP they didnt make any nerf to toss late game units, they buffed it by giving mothership recall ability back, and giving nexus mothership core... now toss units strong and mobile | ||

And when I'm out in the battlefield, I switch to battle mode so it can outbattle other units, right? Oh wait. That's actually on purpose. If you are bronze, battle mode is more useful, otherwise, it's an APM tax in a game that's pretty APM light. | ||

Finally, the Hydralisk has a new upgrade that allows them to move faster while not on creep. I actually started jumping in my chair at this hahah, pretty excited for all the new changes. Gonna be a great time on the competetive scene for a while I'm sure also great write up! | ||

Justin Browder expects that with practice, pro-level players will almost always be able to remove the mined units away from the rest of their unit cluster. Wait, what?! So i should build this Mine in factory, loss resources, loss time in factory for it, and then kill 1 (ONE!) unit with it? Realy?! Zerg gets scorpion from mortal kombat, 'defiler', underground broodlords and more, and I get Mine? Great... | ||
