Looks pretty hilariously awesome. Probably a single player unit though. Still, looks interesting as hell.

Wow I never seen this before, I thought this was new but wow this was back in October? haha either way it looks sweet and monstrous, the kind of demonic stuff Zerg needs. It would be a little lame though if it's a unit that just pretends to be a Bunker.

Oh this thread is still here? Haha I still can't get over how ridiculous that thing looks. Rewatched the footage and it actually steps on a marine and drags it along, so I guess it won't be a Terran.. thing. Though if that were the case I fully approve!

If actually an mp unit (which I doubt) I can't see much joy in it being a dedicated one (vs an ability), force bunker rush doggies, then salvage bunkers? And you know marauders'll counter em! I kid, but still. And the style just.. doesn't work for me, but then again it's only a concept.

All I can say that is that this does not look like a Starcraft unit.

I think it makes sense. In BW we could infest a Command Center and create Infested Terran. So why not allow us to infest a bunker. More importantly, this could take advantage of a Terran that leaves a bunker empty or perhaps even this beast could get bonuses for each unit consumed in the bunker upon infestation. It would require terran to micro what ever unit casts the infestation skill before it gets in range of a bunker, thus making slow Bunker/Tank pushes across the map a bit more dangerous.

If this unit existed, Terran probably just wouldn't use bunkers against zerg.

I fail to see a problem with that.

it was probably an idea like "if a bunker is 100% surrounded by creep it becomes infested." It would be designed to nullify 2 rax rush stuff and let you place a tumor first and hold it.

Lol. Everytime I see that animation it reminds me of this:

I highly doubt it'll be in the multiplayer though... I can't think of a way that can be fair for the Terrans.
As you can see, four marine rifles are used for the weapon and the marine body for a foot (Also think of the DPS and armor of that thing..)

It would be funny though if the creature changes depending on the people inside the bunker... what if there were four SCVs instead of it?
