Incidentally, with the Widow mine added to the game (and consequence detection changes) there is now zero reason why burrow should not be researchable at evo chamber.
The existence of a food chain is inescapable if we evolved unsupervised, and inexcusable otherwise.

I'm pretty sure we won't have to wait for the year 2500 to create a device that can detect movement in the air...

Still i agree with the name change, now that it launches missiles...

An automatic AA turret is one thing, an actual mine that is buried under the ground is another. Why would you ever design a mine to hit flying units?

Because it's difficult to hide things in the air. You want Blizzard to make an Owl mine? Hidden in the trees, so that it would be more realistic?

I just saw up of Dustin's updates. I'm mad. Seriously, Zerg QQ and they could get spore w/o evo chamber, or queen have innate detection?!

Please remember the numbers on the Widow Mine aren't final.

We're currently in the process of discussing how and where to position the unit as well as the counters to it.

Things we're thinking are:

1. We want Widow Mine to be an awesome new unit for Terran that's difficult for other races to deal with.

2. If Protoss needs more options - mothership core gets some sort of soft detection instead of oracle.

3. If Zerg needs more detection early - remove the evo requirement for spore crawlers

All this is still under discussion so feedback is more than welcome. But please remember we do want the Widow Mine to be a powerful new threat that players have to prep against.



lmao, do the dev team actually play the beta?? The widdow mine is completally broken atm how does that make it awesome for anyone ???

and why is it only zerg need early detection?? to defend against mines in there mineal lines ? what kind of sense does that make..
