What is their speed and supply cost?

2 supply, 2.81 movespeed. Burrow takes 3 seconds, normally, but is reduced to 1 with a 150/150 upgrade.

are people actually discussing that game? :D it was speedless roach vs mass m/m/m, then with hydras added, following up with vipers vs 0 tanks in the end. Meanwhile ganzi just massing m/m/m + well, mines.

was just sillyness allover, wouldn't really worry about it

Looks like Blizzard needs to remove that upgrade then. It´s about as silly and counter-productive for the game as Khaydarin Amulet was. The widow mine is fine without it.

Without the upgrade it basically makes the mines worthless against toss as against skytoss the mines are one of the only counters you can actually use for tempests.

Also I'm not going to hold out hope for mech today. I really want to see it, but I feel Blizzard may have to patch the game at release if they want people to use it as currently pros don't seem to like it.

I just watched a TvT game on thorzain stream and he had around 15 mines. It's basically another skyterran deathball unit composition

No, they are not worthless. Mines are not for attacking an army upfront like marines/marauders are. They are mines. If they can be used like what sitromit wrote, that just doesn´t fit at all.

If you want to kill Tempest you need vikings, like in WoL, so what´s the problem?
