The only counter to the banelisk is Chuck Norris I take it?

Blizzard on implementing the banelisk

"Since adding destructible rocks adds to a lot of interesting dynamics in play, we thought that putting a banelisk in all matchups would allow for many creative strategies. In every matchup not including a zerg, we've decided put to put a frolicking banelisk in the middle of the map. Like destructible rocks, players can use this banelisk for outside-of-the-box play."

Just what Zerg needs. ^^
Also, add the leviathan. Then, banelisk and leviathan could morph into leviathanlisk! A huge flying bug witch would spawn ultras every 5 secs ^^

The Banelisk is made of highly reflective materials. Any laser-based shot, as from for example a Colossus or a Void Ray, is reflected and does full damage to the unit firing.

The laser will then refract off the damaged unit's shields or armor, creating a blast equivalent to a nuclear explosion.

Sounds balanced.

Now, get terrans building to suicide for AoE, marines in medivac able to shoot and protoss to be able to warp units and building anywhere on map, and we got the second best STR after Forged Alliance.

It sounds like an ok unit i guess, can the OP comment on if it would have extremely large amounts of armor and health otherwise it won't be worth it imo

I am not at liberty to discuss exact numbers, but the unit is definitely balanced in all aspects.

Chuck Norris will be implemented in the next patch to counter the Banelisk. His DPS (Damage per Sidekick) is gonna be huge.

Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

The real question is not if it can hit air, but with metabolic boost and Centrifugal Hooks upgrades, can it climb cliffs?

How does a Banelisk build fare against a 6 pool?

A banelisk build will hard counter any pool, extractor, overlord, hatch, CC, supply depot, refinery, nexus, assimilator or pylon-first build.

If a Banelisk unburrows under a CC, can it keep it on his back to acquire MULEs usage ?

I think if he doesn't he'll need a slight buff in the long run, when the games will get figured out...
