How scripted was that HOTS game? Looked crazy, can't believe abduct is that good...
Theory is when you know everything but nothing works. Practice is when everything works but no one knows why. In our lab, theory and practice are combined: nothing works and no one knows why.

Oh man abduct needs to be scrapped from the game pronto. If it even makes into beta i'll be kinda dissapointed x_x

What? no!

I fucking love Abduct. Can't wait to play with my swarm host, speed hydra, viper comboes and destroy protosses. It's a great spell that requires focus and army positioning(its range is = collossus' range) and it helps deal with the deathball effect.

Also, a zerg unit abducting? that's fucking awesome.

I'm afraid it might have the same effect as the Replicant had, where players simply stopped producing specific units, and thus limited the strategic variety of the game. I can't imagine Protoss wanting to build colossi if he knows they are going to get hooked as soon as the zerg sees them.
What a player

Scripted enough that the only Z units produced were either new, or had new abilities/upgrades

Instead of just using the fixed version the map creator made, with islands still intact, simply remove islands and therefore gameplay features.

Smart, MLG.

could you not say the same thing about forcefield?


No. This is a whole new kind of dumb. Forcefield basically creates impassable terrain. That (sort of) forces players to think heavily about positioning, as a single wrong move can cost one player their army. Abduct basically negates positioning altogether. Being able to pull key units from a composition basically promotes players massing boring armies without spellcasters or whatever. Terribly ability, kill it with fire.

Feels? what dictates what a starcraft ability is and is not? it makes the zerg race IMO. Abduct = swarm "For the swarm"
