Viper obviously, I can't wait to see what strategies evolve from the dark swarm spell.

Reason why warhound should be in last place (which it is): It doesn't look cool, it seems very-A move, and IT BREAKS SEIGE LINES (stupid idea since tvt was always about good tank positioning and harrassment).

Reason why the battle hellion deserves second lowest: Transformers don't belong in starcraft. It's just stupid from a lore perspective. Also many people believe the hellions are good enough, and I think a unit that can do that much potential dps should be fragile in itself.

Reason why Viper is number 1: Zerg needs a new spellcaster. Especially one that isn't so straightforward. Most zerg units so far have just been straightforward attackers. I'm glad zerg is now getting a unit that isn't based around just doing a lot of damage. And i think all zergs want to see the collosus have a new counter now that NP got nerfed.


Yeah they totally need a new counter to Colossus.........corruptors are trash against them =p.

My favorite is the Viper, but I think the Oracle is the most powerful atm

Not surprising to see the Viper winning this. They really needed an extra offensive spellcaster.

The Swarm Host feels like an early tech Broodlord that can't fly.
The Shredder offers even more local area control that Terran were already damn good at.
The Tempest is just a giant Corsair.

The other unit I'm quite excited about is the Replicant. I don't play Protoss, but I can see that it has the potential to open a big can of strategic worms(eww...)

Swarm host, just seems to fit the zerg to well, and its going to be fun replicating it.

I think the Replicant will actually produce really interesting things. It actually allows for Protoss to be safe with the "scouting problem" many players complain about early game.

The cool thing about it is, it will be super easy to balance with Cost. If a siege tank is 150/125 for Terran but 200/200 for Protoss- for instance, it's going to let you survive but you're not going to win just trading Replicants in for Siege Tanks.

This unit, I think, we will see used very creatively, and to copy Protoss units in unique ways. The unit needs to be expensive though. Making a few 300/200 Colossus from a 200/200 replicant, again for instance, would obviously be broken. With proper limitations, build time, and cost, I think this unit will actually be very interesting.

If the warhound had a better model, I might consider it. Besides that I'm with the shredder.
I fear not the shadows of glory nor the echoes of eternity; place before me a true rendition of greatness... and then we shall see.

The Battle Hellion is by far the best addition to HotS. The Viper? LOLBAD. But okay, sure you like it? I will just shoot it down with Vikings so whatever. Battle Hellion is gonna smash your face. So thanks for coming out gang. Peace!
