Wait so if the Warhound is removed from the game why does its missiles do less damage to hardened shields?


I think they want to do some tweaks to the unit, but for now they're just removing it completely just to see how things work out. Without it in the game they might be able to see what's really missing from HoTS and redesign it appropriately.

David Kim posted on the battle.net forums that they're trying to rethink the Warhound, so it will probably reappear in some form and that's probably why the Immortal Shield thing still made it in.

Carrier!

Glad to see the warhound go, interesting that they still include the hardened shields change though assuming this is a permanent move. Perhaps just temporarily removing it to rework it?

YES!!!

Not sure I understand the other two changes regarding the Warhound, but this made my day.

Immortal Hardened Shield will now reduce the warhound’s Haywire Missile damage.

Provide nerfs to warhound (now costs 3 supply, haywire doesnt impact hardened shields)

Remove Warhound XD

Well thats an odd combo of changes to be honest

Oddly, I am surprised that the mothership will start with 50 energy even though the mothership core had 200 energy for example.

I am wondering EXACTLY what prompted this change. **reading more, they were not accounting for double vortex being available right away** This makes sense, but having one vortex to start would be great. Perhaps if the starting energy was half of the energy the core had when it was being morphed?

Furthermore, battlehellions needing an armoury requirement and an upgrade to switch modes seems a little confusing at first but makes sense. I think that the biggest worry about them and complain was the strength of battle hellion marauder all ins.

All in it looks like some cool changes. Phase shift is interesting but seems like it might be confused with guardian shield for new players? I love the fact phase shift will remove fungal but in the end how does it work? Does the oracle stop moving? How does the 5 second buff work? Can I cast it and move the oracle around to provide the benefit to every unit in my army?

I look forward to seeing people play with the new oracle in beta streams for sure.

My guess is they'll be sending the warhound back to the drawing board and reintroduce it in a week or so with vastly different stats.
