battle helions into a bunker.... wtf. That means, I could do a runby with 100 zerglings and still don't kill the bunker -_-

I wonder how many Swarm Hosts it'd take to kill one of those...

With good positioning maybe not many. BH have the same range as locusts, so 2 swarm hosts with the 4 locusts well spread might take very little splash. Then again... sc2 is about 1a not micro or positioning, so i'm going with 4 swarm hosts + derp.

Yay bio units from the factory. Blizzard is just derping extremely hard right now. I'd rather have the warhound back then this idiocy of somehow a transformed hellion is now a biological unit.

The warhound was hated by almost everyone, and the bio hellion is loved by almost everyone.

Beyond premature to say, it's not hard to be more liked than the warhound imo.

So instead of fixing the Warhound (or altering its role) - Blizzard completely removes it...

and now bio Battle Hellions? Doesn't anyone else think it's terrible that Terran has to stay on bio all throughout TvP? Why such a quick decision? Meching in TvP should be at least a strong option (if not the ideal option).

They should give Terrans something with mind control so that I can put ultralisks into bunkers...

Is it just me or do bio hellions seem completely counter-intuitive? You can heal them with a medivac and when it transforms back to mechanical it stays repaired... what?

Would make more sense if they just magically turn into firebats.

How the hell would that even works? Do melee units also get the +1 range buff? What would it do to Ultra splash?
Mind exploding.

Good thing terran have no mind control then.

I don't care about balance or not. But battle hellion can be heal by medivac and then can only be repaired in hellion mode just seems too weird... Come on blizzard , is Viking bio now when it lands??

Seriously, this is like listening to a bunch of warcraft lore nerds complaining about Thrall.

All you guys should care about is when you hit the battle hellion button, your medivacs heal the hellions. Nothing else. Frankly it's an awesome solution to the main problem I was having with it. Maybe they will make hellions entirely biological.

They should let hellions be driven by firebats. Instead of transforming, a firebat gets out of the hellion and starts roasting shit. Blaster master meets SC.

Stupidest thing I have ever seen of life.

The problem with the warhound: Blizzard, stop putting bio in my mech!
The problem w/ the bio hellion: Blizzard, stop putting bio in my mech!

The problem w/ these proposed changes: Blizzard, stop putting bio in my mech!

Mines might not two shot mutas as they may regen one hp between mines.

Changing type between bio and mech when changing modes is stupid. Maybe make them both bio/mech, but it feels like poor playing to change from battle to mobile? mode just to repair them.

I have no problem with this. Use your imagination and all these will make sense. Autobots had decided to joint force with the Terran and infuse themselves into battle hellions. Therefore when the BH transforms it becomes some sort of Bio-Mech structure and thus can be healed by mediviac.

The Bio-bot change is retarded. It's clear creative bankruptcy. "Oh, we don't know how to fix this unit.... well, let's just stick them with something that does work and call that game design." What, are they going to stim next patch to?

I just cant wait until Blizzard tries to explain the lore of the battle hellion. Motorcycle morphs into some guy, then back.

Also the patch hasnt actually gone through just yet, right?

I think now the siege tank should be able to transform into the warhound, and be bio, obviously. Maybe while they're at it they could make some other terran units transform and become bio and before you know it the thor will transform into optimus prime, but he'll be bio of course.
