Just watch any game by Polt. And I daresay he's pretty successful with Bio.

I suggest you watch Polt. He has had very many games where he plays just bio. Shit, ive seen him play straight up Rauder only in TvT. Your complaining about the best mirror mu with wrong info dude
edit: see, the guy above me mentioned Polt as well. Bio is legit. I stand by my original point.
BioMech, Bio, and Mech are all viable in TvT. Some may be harder to play than others, and they all have their own pros/cons. But they are viable.

What about Perimeter Automated Nictating Defense-Aggression System?

sentil is actually a good name for an units

So if I'm playing PvT, and I see widow mines being used after a fast expansion, just get hallucinate and kill him? Cool.

You can try, but you'll miss the sentry energy :p

so.. with the widow mine.. they in a way just brought back the shredder?

This is how the oracle is supposed to work: You clean an expansion but it has some buildings left, you send your oracle and cast the new ability on all those structures so you get some resources out of nothing but energy plus the cost of the unit, which would be quite useful if the game is late and have many bases and you have map control over the remains of one base. Not so bad, but still kinda lame I guess they can find a better ability than this.
|
really like the Widow Mine changes.
|
The siphon ability seems kind of odd. I could see it being useful if you had multiple oracles and it timed up well for a push, but even then its only like a couple minerals. I would say up the damage and minerals to 5, just to keep everything in order :D

I feel like this conversation has crossed into the "at what point during the brainstorming process do you go "Fuck it, ninja pandas" territory.
