Id like to see the thor, colossi & corruptor gone and replace with more interesting units. Reavers would give toss some good harass options like in BW, and maybe lurkers would make it possible for zerg to actually delay a push decently. I'm not going to get excited to see reavers or lurkers but I think they are interesting units. Perhaps we will see some kind of new air caster for zerg.

The ground artillery unit for zerg would, in my opinion, be contradictory to the Zerg style. They are supposed to be the swarm, and that kind of unit doesnt seem to fit into that concept.

Wow it looks like over a year later most people just want to play broodwar with fancier graphics.

still hope they aren't insane to remove a unit ! would add a chance that WoL will remain and split the community into half :3 .

Anyway some weapon change upgrade for the thors allowing to hit 4 targets instead of the aoe . No idea about particular new units, though reaver lurker and spidermines won't be any good in sc2 so not them

Spidermines would destroy any ling baneling based strat, and fail against anything else because of the fast shots, also the slower detection is a bit of a problem. Build a factorie with a techlab, to force robo + obs x3.

reaver, useless junk for the mobile toss army, also the damage would be around 30 per shot = meeeh not worth it.

lurker .... not enough range linear attack towards the enemy is crap, marauders would simply pick them appart.

I never actually played broodwar, but I came across this video and man Reavers look like a good harass unit something protoss lacks. Hopefully something like this is released in HotS btw does anyone know the release date of HotS?

apparently roaches and banelings have taken the roles of lurkers

the reaver would be sick though, if tosses used warp prisms to carry it around. Splash damage and harass. The only problem would be viking counters that too.

You didn't seriously think people would lug around reavers without shuttles/Wprisms did you?

They wouldn't give the protoss another AOE unit. They couldn't. Then the protoss deathball would be EVEN MORE unstoppable. Can you imagine Reaver/Colossus/HT? Almost unbeatable really.

They said they were looking into a protoss harass unit, so I'm thinking something like the reaper.

I also assume they will give Terran some kind of ground mech unit because players have been complaining that mech is too weak since beta.

I don't think they'll give zerg anything like the lurker because they have been so steadfastly against giving them the lurker (which imo is retarded but whatever)

I do howevre think they will give them some kind of seige unit before BL's that zerg sorely lacks.

There are some silly answers in here.

Hopefully Protoss gets a legit harass unit because that is what we desperately need. I think all the other roles are pretty much covered for Protoss.

Lol the votes in this thread summed up as "We just want BW units with a new engine" imo

Yes ans YES. Having a harass unit would be so fun, so us toss players can get out onto the map earlier

and honestly... is there anything wrong with that? BW units were quite well done and served their purpose well.

My current issue is that with reavers is that there is a necessity for shuttle/warp prism, which probably means a tweaking of the viking because of its ridiculous range it could snipe a prism with a reaver in it, but besides that reaver could serve the harass/aoe necessity protoss neeeds

I'd like to see protoss get a mobile, aoe unit with damage that stacks so having more of them will always scale well.

Also, terran could use a cheap low tier unit with extremely high dps that can be microed to win any small numbers engagement.

Plus, lets give zerg a a unit with low or no range so that it has almost no micro possibilities, but it is so cheap or durable that the potential of having it in large numbers will force your opponent to turtle hard until a suitable counter can be massed.

Oh wait....

The one thing I would honestly like to see is a zerg unit that does bonus damage to armored. Take it away from the infestor and give it to another unit, because right now the options for bonus armored units kind of suck in their limits TT

I really want an air swarm unit, like scourge. I hate the corrupter more than any other unit in the game.

I think Blizzard needs to introduce more dynamic ways of scouting, so in effect reducing the likelihood of people rushing/cheesing and even all ins.

I play Zerg and I'm fed up of roaches and hydras. I think a new unit here needs to be introduced. Lurkers sound cool but I'm thinking something different.

Terran does not and should not have more units introduces. Instead, I hope they introduce different upgrades and design change a few units in form and function.

I feel Protoss also needs 1 or 2 more units and I think something needs to be changed with the Colossus, and I think Immortal needs some kind of ability, such as upgrade-able weapons. Colossus are awesome, but they need design changes in how they work and maybe in form too.

I think zerg could use scourge, they might be op vs colli, but I would like to see.
Protoss harass unit.
Terran seems complete to me more than the other races, if you must maybe a melee unit but thats not terrans style. The thor is already the goliath imo.
