Carrier is back+ Warhound is gone = Profit !
Finally Protoss have a way to avoid chain fungles. Also I don't think that TvP mech is dead because there is no warhounds. It's not a-move anymore yes, but it's not dead. Battle hellions and mines are still pretty good buffer for the tanks.


Mines are shit without a major overhaul ....

I think Terran needs a mech unit that isn't raped by immortals, but deals very little damage.

Hell no that would destroy TvT even more than the warhound did. Anyone remember pre-nerf tanks ? TvT was horrible.

question about phase shield.

does it only _prevent_ the spells to affect the units (after it's casted, and actually act _like a shield) or will it semi function like the medic in BW's restoration as well to cure the units after they have it


prevents most effects as well as dispels--only exceptions are EMP (stops from de-cloaking but doesn't stop shield damage) and NP (won't dispel, will prevent). It lasts 5 seconds.

I like it a lot. Nice micro-intensive way to save key units and micro out of fungals.

Yeah. he basically proposed a buffed version of Mass Dispel from WC3. I'm not sure I like it in this game tho...seems a little too good in theory.

Widow Mine pops the immortal's hardened shields, and I believe 2 of them will kill an immortal, 150 min 50 gas (2x 75m25g) for 250min 100 gas, so thats pretty damn good ^_^

Yeah, this is such an easy thing to put into the game lol would help TvP become such a fucking GREAT matchup.

The spell is great, but the unit it is on is pricey and weak as fuck, so hopefully it should balance out.

Give tanks a range upgrade (from armoury) which needs to be manually target fired.

Just as I almost completely lost faith in Blizz they come back and have an awesome patch. There is still hope for HotS I see.

I'm really glad Blizzard is willing to look a things like the Warhound and take them out for now if necessary, but a little confused as to how it made it this far to begin with.


Agreed. I still have hope now thou :D

I'd like the reaper to have some kind of sensor tower detection (can see the blips, not the actual units you can fire at). It would be more coherent with the name, and not as possibly OP - and more interesting all around.

im pretty sure the warhound will find his way back into the game once blizzard has looked into it more closely.

maybe they remove its current attacks and come up with some completely new ones...

Agreed. I guess I just don't like how it is an answer to EVERYTHING, ya know?

EDIT: OMG, I just now realized that this is a single target ability. Haha, ok, that's A LOT better!

Yeah widow mines are great and all, but a 2 supply suicide unit for the mech army against the hard hitting toss units is brutal. Adding the goliath and the widow mine would be great.

The oracle ability sounds awesome and I hope it has a low energy cost, like 50 or so. The ability to cancel out spells like fungel and EMP will make for better game play. Because it is not an AOE, it will also reward the faster, more accurate player, who uses it on the most critical units. And since it provides no other bonus, it does not improve the unit beyond protecting it, allowing the balance to stay the same.

Even if the damage would be buffed, charge zealots, colossi and immortals are still made to utterly destroy any tank lines. But yeah, I want the 50 damage or even 55 back.

These are some very exciting changes! The addition of the Carrier is what surprised me the most. I'm glad to see that the Carrier is back.
