Huh, very interested to see how the reaper seeing up cliffs will be. Will this vision only allow the reaper to fire, or will that vision be granted to all units? I can see 1 reaper marine pushes becoming a common, early, and very strong push.

holy crap that reaper change, nomnomnomnom. I want in to this beta so bad, sounds like they are making great strides and listening to the community and pros..... all the nay sayers who complain about how blizz doesn't listen, please be quiet now. Two weeks in to the beta and guess what, already they are making massive changes based on whats observed..... scientific method at work right there.

Nice work Blizzard, you are doing what the fans want!

It really makes me wonder what they are going to replace the warhound with.

Immortal
Immortal Hardened Shield will now reduce the warhound’s Haywire Missile damage.
Yeah a buff!

Warhound
This unit has been removed from the game.
okay... it was a nice Immortal buff while it lasted.

Carrier
This unit has returned to the game.
Because it's cool.

Blizzard is so silly sometimes, but I'm glad they seem to be much more active than normal now in addressing things =)

Thank god... let's just hope everyone who was responsible for the design of the Warhound and the removal of the carrier were fired.. No one could understand such stupid decisions..

blizzard in brilliant at making people think they got something good by taking away a unit then giving it back, and adding a new unit then taking it away, after all the Hots hype and trash talk about WoL it seems what people really want is for things to stay the same. lol
In all seriousness good moves by blizz listening to the people and acting on what they hear

surprisingly Blizz actually gave us everything we wanted... the only down side is TvT will go back to WoL styles

Is there anything wrong with TvT WoL styles though? Every good TvT game I've been seeing lately in GSL has nearly a 100% recommendation, it seems like people really like it.

Carrier.... happy to see it making a possible comeback.... [although it seldom sees much light in pro matches]... perhaps a buff is in order as a result of the new metagame shitf the tempest change and toss air options will cause?...

If the warhound comes back without anti-air, the carrier could be a counter to warhound-based armies.
