EPTHellion range is going to hurt bad.
Corruptor nerf hurts.
Excited to see ultra usage though, finally a reason to tech up to hive.

I see no reason to use it over NP. At least the old spell was interesting. | ||

Actually, this way curruptors would rape colossi even harder. | ||

Actually it's the same as roughly 15% of the units total health in damage when cast on a unit with full HP. Yep. fairly useless on low-tech units. | ||

The thing's a paper-thin air-superiority fighter, piloted by a psionic being. I'd like to think the Protoss figured out how to use their rear-view mirror to pilot >.> Yes, and it has anti gravity thing so it all makes sense that it can do all of that.. | ||

If the 20% will have any meaningfull usage remains to be seen, i'd assume it would be usefull if you do not have a critical mass of units to burst down the focused target instantly. Other than that, the 20% bonus for sniping collosi will be usefull, as its not like they die instantly if you only have around 4 corruptors. | ||

It's effectively like a secondary attack where the corruptor can do 50 damage or so every minute. Completely bleh. i won't use it because it will be a waste of my time to click it | ||

Which is quite a lame ability with pretty much no potential for interesting use. No it's effect isn't like that at all. They are totally different. I.E. a zergling attacking a corrupted unit does 1 extra damage per hit. But an ultralisk attacking a corrupted unit does 5 extra damage per hit. It depends on the damage of the attacking units, not on the health of the corrupted unit. | ||

And to quote myself, wonder if the damage boost is before or after armor? If it is before the armor damage reduction the damage increase from the spell will actually be larger than 20% | ||
