Warhound is insanely OP. I tried to 6 gate a terran on the protoss-looking map and he had 4-5 warhounds which destroyed everything I had in seconds. Zealots get completely murdered by battle hallions, in fact, gateway units are pretty useless in the early game right now (I rolled zerg this time so we will see how that goes)

Warhound should be 3 supply tbh, other than that it doesnt seem as op as people want it to be. I'd like to see zerg go ling/viper , toss go immortal/colossus zelots or just go mass air and terran just mass bio mass expand and air transition behind it. Massing war hounds the way some people are doing shouldn't be viable against those.

Of course we'd have to see how the mech style as a whole develops with the use of siege tanks and battle hellions maybe even thors together with them. But im thinking, siege tanks, warhounds, hellions and lots of uppgraded vikings.

Blizzard will 100% surely nerf Warhound if they are too _strong_. That does not worry me a bit. What worries me is the poor design of the unit. It is basically one more 2 legged bland Terran 1a unit. I thought they learned their lesson when Marauder turned out as poor game design. How many 2 legged Terran units do we have now?

Marine, Marauder, Warhound, Battle hellion, Reaper, Ghost, Thor. Nice variation Blizzard, how the heck could they keep Thor and Marauder while introducing Warhound is beyond me. Imagine new players starting in HOTS, it will be confusing with so many bland 2 legged T units with so many hard counter specialities. Bill Roper come back and save this mess.

EDIT: They can tweak figures all they want and it will in the end be fairly balanced, so why even bother commenting on that? But what people must do it stop Blizzard before they decide to keep this awful unit. It wont be fixed otherwise, SINCE the community was silent enough which led to Blizzard keeping Colossus for example in the game even though it was a poor excuse for a unit ill fitting for electronic sports.

Thorzain and Demuslim got keys.

Stephano also, if he counts as EG yet.

That's not true. It's strong but not THAT strong.

It's actually stronger, I'd say.

So terran problem is that the units have 2 legs?

Right, Thorzain did.

But Idra getting any key is pretty surprising, despite his constant bashes against blizzard. His words against them never seemed THAT strong to me....

Actually it is. Let's compare beta warhound against beta roaches foodwise.

2 Roaches

145 HPs x2 = 290 HP's
16 damage x2 = 32 Damage = 16 DPS.
150 Minerals -- 50 Gas


1 Warhound

220 HP
23 Damage = 17 DPS
150 Minerals -- 75 Gas

Techwise roaches are way more forgiving and you could easilly get them in mass on early game due zerg macro mechanichs, so it's problem wasn't only being one food, but HOW FAST a zerg could get an insane army due to it's low food cost + larvae. You can't do the same with warhounds since they require enough gas and have a quite high build time (building enough factorys + tech labs isn't ezpz).

Ah, and in case you were wondering, 2 roaches own 1 warhound.

Warhound is extremely microable with their mobility and long range attack. Not an a-move unit, nor is the marauder for that matter.

The warhound is overpowered, sure, but I think it could have a niche in a more stalker-like mobile ranged unit. They just need to tone down its size and HP.

I just mean to the mass warhound style a lot of people seem to be using, and people tend to whine about. Of course battle hellions will demolish lings.
