the tech requirement is armory, as far as addon requirements go you can dual build them from reactor or build singles from naked fac

I don't disagree with you, but that's the signature move of the oracle. If they remove it they might as well scrap the oracle all together... might not be the worst decision...

Oracle needs back that cloak shit or something worthwhile to help offensively, not give more defensive capabilities/observer

Watched Fuzer's, Sjow's and ForGG's streams and according to what I've seen so far:

Widow mines
No ability to target(!!!) and no ability to hold fire, so enemy can explode them with single worker or tier 1 unit. Also _very_ low splash damage for it's supply cost. Lowering supplycost and making its jump+exploding a spell to use would make this viable and not horrible design. Hell, even ZERGS have and can to manually explode their baneling mines.

Warhound
Strong rush openers like straight to 2fac warhounds, feels very powerful in general, is fast enough to kite stuff on low numbers(slowlings, zealots and so) but boring a-move unit in bigger numbers. Also, while being very powerful against ground especially early in game, has no antiair which will lead to many build order wins.

Battlehellions
Slow, A-move, hardcounter type unit. Everything wrong. Destroys zealots and zerglings but will get kited forever by terran bio due to only 2 range.

Mothership core
Very powerful at defending rushes. I feel it is too easy to use and it kills too much possible early agression, though it might be needed to defend against warhound rushes.

Swarm Host
Just... everything what is wrong with zerg in WoL.

Disappointed in general. Blizzard is trying to gain success by making game more casual friendly and just dumbing down the game on every aspect. Army control needs more emphasis. I hope it gets better as beta goes on. Like Cloud said, I'll play it but I was hoping for something better.

thanks so they're kinda high tech, but massable. I understand why, but I think it'd be cool for early mine pushes to be possible.

It shows him playing [SC2]. I'd reckon he needs to update the game he's playing on his TL stream page that's all.

Best thing about the Warhound is definately the portrait and the voices. Damn the unit is cool in that aspect.

I've seen collapsible rocks near the third on at least one of the maps. What happens if you have your base built there and then they get destroyed (collapsed)?
