Still no word on the promised seperate ladders per race !
The unit skins sound pretty awesome, adjusting things to your personal taste.. more personalised gameplay is never bad.

Emperor Mengsk is not getting out of bronze-league anytime soon with that unit composition and micro.


Kerrigan basically just out-macroed him, she beat marine/tank with ultra/ling with no infestors. Mengsk needs to work on his mechanics imo.

  • Corrosive Acid - main target damage increased by 100%
  • Rupture - splash damage increased by 50%
  • Regenerative Acid - Baneling explosion heals friendly units and buildings (does damage to enemy anyway)

Very cool cinematic and the campaign seems quite fun. I'm hyped for this !!!

I actually think that the alternative skins are a great thing for esports :
In a mirror match, it would be cool to have a player on alternative skins while the other one is on basic's.
It might make ZvZ way more watchable.

it prabobly wont have any impact on esport as from spectator and pro point of view it's rather an annoying feature; if it has some impact it'll be an indirect impact (by attracting more casual gamers into play)

The amount of my fangurling that goes into Kerrigan i indescribable.
Loved the cinematic! it didn't "spoil" the story (we already knew that, the cinematic doesn't give us anything new lorewise)

atmospherical and visual very great, loved to see how a fullscale invasion of the zerg work, also nice leviathan!
all in all HotS seems more relevant than WoL (emphasis on "seems", i don't know yet) concerning the events.
So, i doubt that Blizzard will make this "dream" of Kerrigan happen (depicting the same event twice is stupid and they would have spoiled it, so the intro is not what will happen.. or is it?) which means there will be (hopefully) some plottwist and Mengsk won't be the main objective/problem in the campaign

The opening cinematic gave me those all-too-familiar nerdchills again.

And I liked it. So much.

People need to remember that this trailer was probably in the works before the new units were finalized.

Yeah, these cinematics take Blizzard and Blur the better part of a year iirc.

^I think that information is not right. The upgrades for baneling have the same effects/name as for zergling. Probably a mistake on TL's part. There were some other errors as well I noticed.

So does it mean no more new unit for terran in the multiplayer? Just hellbats and mine?

Damn, I'm excited to play the campaign. The only thing I didn't really like was the hunter baneling - it just seems like Blizzard ran out of evolution ideas and decided to copy the raptorling's. Well, the cinematic made up for it.

...

It's exactly 7 weeks until launch, do you really think they would introduce entirely new units now?

Oh man... I have nerd chills all over my belly button after watching that opening cinematic. I went from caring less about the campaign to can't wait to play it lol :D
I might be the minority on TL, but TL is the minority everywhere else.

Baneling
Mutations

Hardened Carapace: Gain an additional 10 HP.
Adrenal Overload: +50% attack speed.
Metabolic Boost: +60% movement speed.

Why does the baneling need attack speed? lol
