A few things people should check out:
Maybe Warhounds could use 3 supply instead of 2. Still, more testing than only theorycrafting is needed to support this idea,
Warhounds doesn't make tanks useless. Actually, tanks are really important on mech vs mech TvT, as they were on biomech TvT on WoL. Remember how splash works, the range on sieged tanks, and how big warhounds are.
Warhounds suck against zerg. Period. Roaches and ultralisks just rape them really efficiently. Also, you can use fungal on them to connect efficiently.
Warhounds on PvT suffer from inmortals. They are nice to force your opponent into heavy inmortal army composition tho, but till really late-game, terrans can't tech switch easilly.
Will they have uses ? Sure. Maybe they need a nerf ? Maybe, we don't know yet. But what we know, hating on a unit just for the sake of hating, is subjective and isn't fact.
Warhound are just mech marauders.
People used to complain amarauder were breaking the game during beta, and yet with very little change, they are an average unit now

been watching some streams. Battle hellions and war hounds look terrible. Look at that mech hopping from one side of the map to the other in their upgraded marauder suites. fuck that.
It doesn't matter how strong or good it is, it's not the way mech is supposed to be played and it's an aesthetic nightmare. I'm watching some sort of stupid michael bay movie where they didn't have the money for optimus prime 'suits' but could only affords some generic suits.
Swarm host and oracle are major disappointments in temrs of entertainment value. Please just kill the oracle.
Core looks pretty cool when it doesn't have the plastic blue plates beneath it, but is swirling with blue electricty/particle stuff.
Widow mine has had an amazing improvement, but it would still be cooler if they were dropped by another unit, it just adds so much more to the game.

Given that hellions look like toy cars I don't mind the warhound design much.
I can't wait for me to get a key or keyes to pop up on ebay so I can get in, can't wait to play T.T

I'm wondering how much supply is warhound exactly? In the morning before going to work I watched Thorzain's game where he was barely at 160 supply and had an enormous swarm of them as well as other mech and hellions and shit.
The same amount of supply tanks should have been. 2 Supply.
EDIT: Also Terran looks like C&C.

Is it even confirmed that it will be sellable without an account. So far some people said that it just appeared on their account by action of Blizzard, not that they got some alphanumeric key or anything, so it may as well be not transferable?

You can still sell the account tho (harder if you have other games too).
I would say for the first month they could be sold for 1.000$ easilly.

It is confirmed that there will be community giveaways, those usually work with keyes.

Nothing less fun to watch than 2 zergs fighting eachother with swarm hosts...
plays like the mentally slow half brother of the lurker.

well the nexus/CC/hatch is a bid more save against melee attacks like zergling surrounds.
That's the only thing i can think of now

Warhound looks like crap. Seems like they just imported the tauren model from wc3, modified it into a mecha-character so the japanese will start playing sc2
|
warhound is such an early game unit. They have to make it require armory otherwise it's really 'heart of the warhound'.
|
I am sure only for one thing, until the release of LotV, we are not going to have a decent game.
and yes, fuck warhound.

anyone knows if tank + battle hellion is viable against protoss?

Thanks They do both apparently Collapsed rock only have 500 hp, they are quick to kill Zerg can be dick and kill the rocks against P/T so they have to kill 2000 life rocks to get their third.
Do buildings get damaged when the rocks collapse on them? is this even possible? or cant you collapse the rock when there is already a building in its collapsing zone?

the warhound is so ugly damn! it makes me hate it... maybe i just wont make them .. *sigh* terrible art i would prefer a goliath type of art but the currently is just ... blewh!

I guess you don't like TvT either. Swarm hosts put emphasis on position back in ZvZ

From watching streams, I just want a key soooooo bad. I can't believe how negative people are about what they have seen. All I see is potential for new strategies, and fun. OF COURSE the game will be completely out of balance for a while--that is what the BETA is for.
I think the swarm host will be vindicated.
Please don't be so down on everything--this is an exciting time.

anyone streaming zerg hots right now?
