Lurkers (or similar working mechanic) would be much more interesting, because they are also viable in lower numbers unlike swarm hosts. | ||

I agree that the Lurker would be better, but they won't want BW 2.0 for some reason. Still, the Widow Mine has made the game much more interesting and dynamic, and it's just a modified ripoff of the spider mine. | ||

Made the game more interesting and dynamic because the spider mine was an awesome unit, kind of like the Swarm Host is boring design and doesn't really bring any emotion to the game like Brood Lords, unless they're dying. | ||

Every one appart from Blizzard would agree with this, yet either they are to proud to admit that some BW units would have a better place in Sc2 then the current units or they really want Sc2 to be completly different and they themself enjoy static passive play. Who knows, units designers might also have gone completely try hard and crazy instead of simply looking at there pref game. | ||

But it is really boring to use and watch swarm host imo | ||

I mean getting excited that 3 phoenixes "almost" take down 1 queen...its been widely known after all these years that it takes 4 to do that in 1 lift. I appreciate the improvement over SNM, but I think PL can do better. Funny that whenever I watch proleague there is always criticism regarding the casters... Okay, I'm not a native speaker so maybe I don't realize some faults, but I personally think that when you reach a certain level of understanding of the game it's pretty hard to not find flaws in someone's casting or at least disagreeing on some points. Also keep in mind that it's also their job to make the stream appealing to a new(er) audience and to do it in a sort of exciting way... In addition to that constructive and precise criticism helps the casters to work on their knowledge/performance and therefore make room for improvements rather then demotivating and bashing them without further explanation. | ||
