Happy about the widow mine splash, although I still think it shouldn't hit air in exchange for being vastly cheaper. | ||

From a race discrepancy point of view biosteel upgrade makes more sense than a bio stat on the battle hellion. | ||

"Oh look, we have Firebats. That benefit from Vehicle upgrades. And can't stim. And can be repaired by SCVs. And have an Armory requirement. And can turn into Vultures." LOL. | ||

Although terran should technically be very strong in the early game but the healing property of a battle hellion just makes it too strong. The battle hellion needs to have its bio stat removed and have some sort of biosteel healing upgrade at the techlab like the blue flame implemented. This way zergs has a fair chance to defend from harassment early game and can get slaughtered late game if not careful and against protoss mass zealots, battle hellions healing ability is still viable to a mech build. From a race discrepancy point of view biosteel upgrade makes more sense than a bio stat on the battle hellion. They require armory and you would also need a starport to get those medivacs. If you are unsure because your scouting is denied, go roaches. Pretty sure roaches will piss on them. Well, i am gonna test it. | ||

Well you still need an Armory and an Starport to get to this (Battle Hellions require Armory). So its not that early. When the Terran does this on one base Zerg should be pretty fine. If its off 2 Base it hits very late in my opinion. | ||

I think you can't build a BH before armory, right? so zerg should have enough time to get roaches... | ||

Having every game boil down to the same mix of units is not interesting OR diverse. The completely different way mech and bio play in BW creates much more interesting and diverse games than having every game be some variant of biomech, not to mention the fact that you can play biomech in BW as well. OT: Blizzard seems to hate tanks, which makes me sad. They're the most interesting unit Terran has by far. It's like they keep trying to push us away from playing a BW-esque mech style, which is what every Terran and their mom has been asking for since WoL beta. Hopefully the widow mines compensate for this, but I'm doubting it. | ||

This will encourage more medivacs when terran goes mech or biomech, it will bring back the old BW TvT mech dropship play. | ||
