No burrow move for Banelings?
I can't complain though, looks awesome!

Wonder if the Widow Mine would be as effective if your opponent simply sends one unit in first, and separate from the main army....will the mine redeploy in the ground if the effected unit dies before detonation?

hmmm like it more than the originally proposed units but I still think that they should keep the carrier over the tempest (purely for how cool they are not anything to do with balance)

I think every change theyve made from the original previews are good ones honestly. Especially excited that they decided to keep many of the to-be-axed units like mothership and overseer, and theyre at least thinking about keeping the Carrier

Lots of the new units also look like they'll demand control and positioning to be effective, which is really nice. Game doesn't need any more 1-A units

Wow, I LOVE how they fixed up the mothership instead of deleting it. No more stupid archon toilets, but the unit is still there and still powerful!

they didn't mention whether these are all the new features in HOTS. They may not have removed their previously mentioned uprgrades. Although burrowed baneling movement did seem a little ridiculous.

SC2: Heart of the Swarm or as I like to call it... wanna-be Brood War.

Anywho, I am so excited for the new terran units. Perhaps finally Mech will be viable vs protoss! (Anti-mech missiles seem pretty nice :D)

I wonder how Ultra Blink will work out.

Also window mine seems particularly weak vs zerg either with infested Terrans/Broodlings or suicide ovie.

reaper health will be nice. They will continue to be a lasting harass unit throughout the game this way.

Wait, how is Terran supposed to win?

Are Warhounds able to be reactored out?

Well, I hope everyone likes PvP because if the game stays the way it is (obviously it wont), everyone will switch to Protoss.

Beta...

THIS SUMMER?

Not buying it, Blizz. lol.

However, after watching the first battle report, I have to say that I REALLY love the vipers. The wings and animations make them feel so zerg-y. So great.



Oh, my achin' hands, from rakin' in grands, and breakin' in mic stands

Sorry to burst your bubble, bro, but the core can turn into the mothership still. And that mothership can use vortex. L
