Psi charge (cost = some undetermined amount of energy): Ranged ability that increases production speed of a unit or building being produced by some factor for a set amount of time. - The factor should either be a function of food requirement or resource cost. Food requirement example: Units with food requirement of 1 - build time is 50% of normal build time Units with food requirement of 2 - build time is 65% of normal build time Units with food requirement of 4 - build time is 80% of normal build time Units with food requirement of 6 - build time is 90% of normal build time Structures - build time is 80% of normal build time All values are arbitrary. Resource cost example: Cost 0-99 total resource - build time is 50% of normal build time Cost 99-199 total resource - build time is 60% of normal build time Cost 199-299 total resource - build time is 70% of normal build time Cost 299-399 total resource - build time is 80% of normal build time Where: total resource = mineral cost + vespene cost All values are arbitrary. Just throwing an idea out there, I particularly like it because it's not purely resource based. | ||

Instead of a macro ability that increases your own gather rate, why not have one that negatively impacts your opponent?. Like a reverse proton charge, or a big cork that goes into their gas, or manner pylons that drop from the sky. That would be awesome! Not to mention so much more fun to use that some dumb worker buff. dude, manner pylons that drop from the sky! WHO'S WITH ME! | ||

I think it could probably keep its massive hit points because of its slow speed. Its attack might have to be nerfed or removed though. | ||

Now this may not be big new to you but it certainly is to us. | ||
