So basicly terran gets the warhound, a unit that is not really a micro unit. What about making more micro units, blizzard? Marines vs banelings for example is fun to watch.

Q: Will there be a beta test? When will it start?

A: Yes, we do intend to run a beta test for Heart of the Swarm multiplayer, and we expect it to start sometime in the summer of 2012.

Brace yourselves.

Summer is coming.

Granted, I did waste my WoL beta on only Nexus Wars

Is it me or there are a lot of stuff coming from broodwar ?
Mines, dark swarm, lurkers, arbiter.
Well it's not exactly the same units but they do seem to work the same, it might help bw players :D

And i really like the health regen for reapers, i'm eager to see the new uses for them.

This gives me hope..

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!


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


But only against ground. Which makes it useless against broodlords and Battlecruisers, the two units you really, REALLY want to be able to Archon toilet.

A lot of things brought back from Brood War, that's nice.

Though I could have sworn before the launch of SC2, the two expansions were more or less stand alone and would retail for $60.

I'm seeing the potential for T to be way underpowered with the sick new P and Z units lol. We'll have to reserve judgment until we've played it though.

I'm so, so very sad they're changing vortex. I hope that gets reverted back eventually. How can Blizzard possibly deny us things like that epic MVP vs Squirtle Archon toilet?


I think that game would be equally epic with mothership core, oracles, redline reactor, widow mines and tempests :D

Sounds like that Widow Mines are way easy to avoid and control areas very loosely. Also the Tempest should be a very limited unit.
