all i want is an overseer that isnt flying but burrowed with decent vision in base because terran has scans (detector) and you cant do anything about it and protoss has observer which is invisable which is hard to see (map hacks,,jk jk) i think it would be cool.
also some sort of transfusing unit which is quicker off creep.

Don't think it will happen. Protoss is depending on observers to be able to move their death ball in time, while zerg has so many small and fast units that they easily can obtain map control. Terran have to pay for scans with not getting mules as well.

To scout bases as zerg, you could always drop some changelings. But I agree to some extent that zerg lack base scouting.

Maybe the artifact was made by the xel naga to kill their creations? after all it killed the zerg and was mentioned to be able to kill protoss and it removed the zerg infestation from kerrigan...

I just finished the WoL campaign today and am extremely curious as to the progression of the plot. I'm disappointed that Tychus Findlay died, and I really hope General Warfield appears in HotS, he's such a badass.

Although it would be nice to see the UED make another major appearance, I think it is likely that they won't. However, I imagine that it is very possible for them to make an extremely minor appearance in one or two missions in the next two expansions.

Just have one or two of the missions involve some white-colored "UED remnants" Terran force with some UED decals and possibly some medics and Valks. Even if the UED is slated to never return to the Korpulu sector, at least some in-game references would be acceptable.

Could be. It's simple and makes sense.

If I like it, though, I'm not sure. Weapons as powerful as those just makes things too easy.

You don't need to hope, you'll meet him on Char (check the previews). He is leading a Dominion force with the objective of purging Char free from Zerg.

You know I never thought of that before xD. It makes sense that they would make the artifacts just in case their creations turned on them.

Agreed. Even without the Queen of Blades, a few billion zerg will be able to hold off any terran attack. Plus, once Kerrigan takes back the swarm from the hive queens.... let's just see how it goes next year.
I hate when people compare SC2 and rochambeu. One race isn't fucking supposed to counter another one. | Protoss isn't OP. Their units on the other hand....

in my opinion not a unit, not a critter, but something to reach in a mish - like the preservers in the sinister turn in WoL. Swarm heading for the frost planet and ninjaing its DNA to adapt. Probably a hard kill though.

P.S.: to the matter of adaptation - three times hooray for the furry zerglings - live plushies :D

I'm only for the Yeti as a unit if it has siege capabilities. Causing avalanches or lobbing enormous snowballs, perhaps.

Actually, both the protoss and the zerg turned on the poor fellows (toss due to infighting and zerg due to the Overmind breaking free of his mental chains/changed "directive"). If they had the artifact at the time they would surely have used it on the zerg at least, but that didn't happen.

Personally i think the artifact's a true deus ex machina, a result of the writers being lazy. At least in Brood War there was a way to mind control the zerg using psionic wave emitters, which was cool because it wasn't all powerful.
Fear. Fear that the zerg are expanding all over the map and there's nothing you can do. The Swarm. Your doom. Now is the time to panic. The terran and protoss are trying to survive. The Zerg are trying to obliterate them. - Stane

agree with the artifact being an all-in-one solution. On the other hand, curing an infestation as severe as the one of Kerrigan was probably cant be done with antibiotics only

for the purpose of the artifact being an allmighty weapon against zerg leaving no space for them to get out of control as they got, there could be several limitations to its power we are not aware of - like limited number of those artifacts, recharge time of the big kaboom measurable in years and more, limited nuber of use of the single artifact and you could probably go on with those. after all, the final activation hasnt cleared even all the Char, and considering the artifact was shattered and hidden all over the sector, it could have been impossible for xelnaggies to use it in time. with the zerg ability to breed, the time between they got out of control and the time they expanded to another planet allowing them to survive the blast (as a race) had to be shorter than short.

as a conclusion, wouldnt be afraid of the artifact being a first-to-come answer on anything zergish in times to come. the fact that blizz writers havent provided us with a reason not meaning there isnt any. after all, how the hell the characters got some info about it? only zeratul seemed to have some minor idea about the artifacts, and Raynor provided with an illustrated user manual in his dreams would be a deus ex machina way more severe

i played it on gamescom. It seems to be a pretty good story once again but the missions are a little bit boring. 1st mission. Collect 100 eggs faster than the npc. Other mission: " take out the protoss before the timer hits 0:00"....
