This change may make bio hellion timings retardetly op though as I can't see any early-mid game zerg unit that can be cost efficient vs a battlehellion being healed. The purifier change sounds kinda meh, part of why it allowed you to be greedy early game was the fact that it only took 25 more energy for purifier to be ready, but atleast they buffed the damage. Oracle changes sound really good and the mine change is just awesome! I just wish they'd patch even heavier atm tbh, no reason why "carriers can now be microd" shouldn't be on that list. | ||

I really thought blizzard wanted the WM to be a zone-controlling unit, not an harassing unit (like T need another one). Jesus, baneling drops without having to wait for drops + ventral sacs + +2 upgrade (you still need an armory, right?). un-fucking-believable. | ||

Still needs to be 1 supply though :/ Dayvie's current reasoning for not being 1 pop -- Widow mine is a 160 damage unit that instantly 2-4 shots the strongest, latest tier units in the game. Not to mention you can build them two at a time with a 20 sec build time on each. We don't think it'll be a good idea to have these guys be 1 pop especially for the 200/200 supply cases. | ||

It being used with a factory based unit will just make the entire style of play more robust. People already make lots of Vikings with Mech and with more durable BHs they can sustain more Immortal damage. And you can escape from Immortals picking up Tanks in the end of the engagement (because Immortals just don't die). | ||

Should be called the Widow bomb now. :D | ||

Dont know the splash radius but should be a very interesting unit right now. Without upgrades. 1 shotting from splash. Marines Workers Zerglings Banelings Reapers Observer 2 shotting from splash.

Edit: Acutally the battle hellion thing seems kind of stupid to me. Doesn't make much sense at all | ||
