Early-mid game non flyng harassing unit; basically, something to drop. Zerg Something to buff melee units efficiency (see "old queen" ensnare ability or defiler dark swarm) , Terran Hard to say, the terran army seems complete. Stuff already in the game that requires some rework : - Carrier - Reaper - Battlecruiser - Overseer | ||

Nerf Marauder and make it 1 food. Nerf Collosi Nerf Roach and make it 1 food. Zerg really need Scourge to deal with drops. | ||

Even as a P/T player. | ||

I actually don't believe there will be an artillery unit considering the collossus. IF theres going to be only one unit its probably gonna be a healer/shield restorer OR a good harrasment unit like the reaper. Both of those would extend the protoss play in fields where it is lacking something. Zerg: The lurker is very plausible, cause Zerg isnt played like Blizzard intended it to be. The lurker would fit very well into the makro-race zerg has become because of its high potential in defence and mapcontrol. Additionally I think Blizzard will change the static defences of zerg by eather making the Spinecrawler cheaper but weaker and faster building or adding sth. like the sunken colony. Terran:: I really cant think of a field where Terran is lacking anything, so I just say a meelee unit sounds plausible. | ||

I think it would make more sense to make a faster but cheaper and weaker hydra-like unit. Or maybe just make change the hydra to be like that. I agree that Zerg was planned to be like that, but i really don't think Bizzard will push Zerg in that direction since its played so differently right now. I rather believe they let it be a makro-race and expand these qualities. | ||

Let's take Zerglings as an example. The basic Zergling is a fast, cheap and plentiful melee attack unit, but what if you could adapt it into a ranged ground-to-air unit with a radius smaller than that of a marine, since Zerglings are quite fast, and with a weaker melee attack? Or maybe have Zerglings with a normal melee attack, but also give them the ability to claw at enemies from underground. They could use burrow movement to close the distance and then swipe at the opponent's feet and/or tracks. The adaptation morph would be available within the Evolution Chamber, but there would be different requirements for each such morph. You would be able to adapt your units as many times as you wish, though there would be a 10 minute cooldown so that Zerg are stuck with their choices for a while. Also, each such morph would send all units into a 10 second period of morphing, so that the Zerg doesn't suddenly shift their weaknesses mid-battle. | ||

It's boring, requires no micro, and is far too good considering that. It was a mistake replacing the Reaver with such garbage. You gotta be f**king kidding me. Play toss then speak. It seems like everyone just want to have another broodwar. I didn't play broodwar, but i will admit that the current game feels a lot like building a bunch of units and clashing them into each other and see the outcome, with some fiffling to it with attacks in multiple places and some harassment. Too many armies can just A move, though still there is quite some micro involved. I'd say it would be nice to see something that Terran would find interesting to use in PvT for example, that isnt just marine marauder stim attack, because that was one of the first things in this game i found way too silly. (Yeah this is starting to sound like a whining post for the current game). Stim, A move with MM and kite is just way too easy compared to placing forcefields correctly etc. So my wish for HoTS would be more micro intensive gameplay and some NEW interesting units, and not another broodwar, but something that would be as epic, in a different way. | ||

Roaches, Hydras, Ultralisks, Tanks, Banshees, Thors, Colossus, Marauders, should all take up less supply or go back to their BW supply/cost. The carrier was 6 supply but it could have 8 interceptors and you needed retarded amounts of 3/3 goliaths to take em down. The thor/colossus/ultralisk isn't even that good for its supply count.

Medivac is great, but having Medics would add an extra layer of depth to early game for Terran. Yeah I think the medivac was the worst replacement for the medic. Seeing a cloud of medivacs hovering over an army, and mass elevators, just looks so ridiculous. When Flash did elevators it was awesome, in SC2 its like, meh. Artosis once said SC2 was made for Boxer, well I guess he completely forgot how good Boxer was with medics. I could not imagine how much better Nada would be if medics were in the game. | ||

Zerg needs a unit to gain map control and hinder enemy balls rushing into your base before you have defences up. Terran: Much like Protoss they have a nice array of units, but I'm thinking either an air caster unit or a melee infantry unit (firebat). Hopefully we'll overall see some new upgrades as well and more than 1 unit each race. EDIT: People who vote that Protoss needs a siege unit must be trolling, considering the Colossus. Or they understand that the Colossus is a very uninteresting unit and should be replaced, whether by something new or the reaver. | ||

Terran needs something lategame, whether it's a new unit or a reworking of the raven, battlecruiser or thor, because right now Terran is too dependent on risky harrass tactics and 1 or 2 base plays. I don't like doing a 2-base timing push every game but the fact of the matter is I always get smashed if I let the game get into a 4 base v 4 base situation vs. Zerg or Protoss. Terran needs something better to go for in macro games. Right now Zerg seems the most complete, their strategies are pretty well mapped out and almost all of their units have roles, but it's the Zerg expansion so obviously something will change. Protoss air seems kinda underused right now except in specific circumstances. Maybe that oughta change. | ||
