I forgot about that being in beta, that and 1 supply roaches and flux vanes too #balance. Also 2 armour on the roaches. Pretty crazy. Pretty crazy.

At least it was somewhat evened out with 3 range rather than 4 but either way one supply and two base armor was insane.

I wonder if you could do a secret build-up to mass phoenix as Protoss, sort of like the muta change for Z

And they had super fast health regen. Beta roaches were the most OP thing to ever exist in Starcraft.

Like that TV show Survivor with pacts and shit and there is always a backstabber. Major is sharpening that knife.

Yeah, you gotta hide them and pool them up as you slowly trade off other units. But maybe 30 phoenix with good upgrades would win this game

Instead of instant Fungal I want ranged Neural Parasite without channeling and usable while burrowing, it would open up a lot of new strategies and make the upgrade worthwhile.
