Also, they finally changed the SCV build icon positioning in the command card. As a grid player, that really bothered me.

Just give me back BW units with sc2 interface and i'll be fine.
Terran doesn't need as many new units as the other races as we have the most versatile units.
I'm happy the warhound is gone. TvT is saved! :D:D:D

Except that's completely wrong, you're saying no new units means things won't change, changing many things around terrans and giving them the small little extra options will vastly change things after the metagame develops.

I LOL'ed so hard when I saw Warhounds removed. What a plot twist, after seeing that comment about hardened shields

These changes ought to go a long way toward making late-game ZvP less gooey and gross; thank God for that, and props to Blizzard what look to be solid changes across the board.

Am I reading that correctly?
How in the world is that an insta win?

And to all the people saying "Terran is dead now" recognize that they plan on readding a Terran unit, they just want feedback on what that unit should be so they can come up with a less boring, potentially more helpful design. we have told them 10 million times jsut give us the vulture but they neven listen

Carrier is back!
We continue to receive a lot of feedback from both our community and professional players suggesting that the tempest is difficult to use. We agree that it’s not an easy-to-use capital ship like the carrier, and feel it could be cool to have two big air units in the protoss fleet. The carrier will be the easy-to-use, multifunctional capital ship, whereas the tempest will be a more strategic and positional unit that can’t just be blindly massed. We know how much the carrier means to everyone and think that this is a great opportunity to give the carrier another chance before making a final decision on the unit’s future. OH GOD YES! :D

Kinda wish the Terran mini buffs scattered around stayed.

Battlecruiser dmg vs. ground back to WoL, Hunter Seeker Missile energy now again 125.... Ô_Ô
I hope they will implement something different in place of the Warhound, otherwise I really feel like Terran gets shafted bigtime
|
Awesome to see the carrier return! Hopefully Terrans get something to replace the Warhound soon.
|
wowow...can't believe they removed the warhound.. good shit XD and the carrier are back WOOT!!!

Also, if you read the comments, the warhound is NOT gone forever, it is due for a redesign. Maybe it won't be named warhound anymore, but as I read it, there will be a replacement or rework of it. Don't despair Terrans! I also honestly believe that the widow mine won't stay as is, it will need to come down to 1 supply at least if nothing else changes.
