Sry, forgot to add, maybe this thing has 2 different modes that don't look that different, where it transforms and the treads would be near the top and wheels near bottom, the picture above would be a hard hitting long range aa and the mobile version would be something else, it would be like a ground valkiry...don't know how to spell it.
Also, here is wiki link.

Giving hellions cliff jump, whatever their attack, would be ideal.

Only thing I dont understand why people think this is a Hellion transformer, is WTF would it do differently? like, the only thing I could see, is it having lower mobility..... Mech medic

Blizzard is removing and adding units in order to better design the game. If it was well-designed, they probably wouldn't be removing/adding units for HOTS. WoL is designed well. It's just not perfect yet.
Giving warpgates a little longer cooldown than gateways would solve that issue. There is no such thing as something being designed 'too well.' They just need to bring Z and P up to snuff in terms of strength and excitement.

It better not 'heal' mech. Does Blizzard want to make bio and mech COMPLETELY the same?
|
I'm hoping this unit is one of two things:
a) a decent factory unit that makes mech as viable as bio vs protoss, or b) a replacement for the marauder, maybe a short ranged tanking type unit (hence the shields), so that concussive shells aren't in the game anymore and my zealots can't be infinitely kited anymore.

I really don't think Terran needs more units... Looks cool, though.

Next sign for the "fact" that Blizzard really loves Terran hehe. At least the know who to excite people. Should have made an announcement of an announcement though.

Really? Source? And any words about what's being removed? *fingers crossed for marauders*

Has anyone thought that maybe the "chill" hint was in reference to blue flame upgrade? Ya its a stretch up blizzard is really known for how subtle they can be. So blue flame upgrade gives you a hellion walker instead that is durable and slow

So you basically want us terran to throw up $40 or something for basically the same game ??
THEY HAVE TO ADD SOMETHING, OR PEOPLE WONT BUY IT it's mainly for game design. WoL isn't designed well. Many threads have been made about Terran being master race, and Warpgates screwing up Protoss design, and many other things. Even Browder has said Terran was designed too well. Blizzard is removing and adding units in order to better design the game. If it was well-designed, they probably wouldn't be removing/adding units for HOTS.
To answer you both, you actually pay the money for the campaign aswell, not the multiplayer alone. And tbh, blizzard would probably add units even if the game was perfectly designed just to add something for the multiplayer. This though is not the same as the e-sport version om SC2 changing. I ASUME that there will be an option to play WoL in multiplayer aswell as HoTS so that GSL or w/e is in no way forced to upgrade to the new version aslong as that is not balanced. I myself would have nothing at all against seing two different leagues atleast in the realese phase of HoTS.
and to all those saying "terran needs no new units since they are already OP (or w/e you are inferring)" is simply silly. We have no way at all to know the balance in HoTS. one small tweak on even an existing unit for z/p could switch the balance completly... and since we do not know what units p or z will get it is very possible terran even needs more units... in short, we have no idea what is and is not needed.... lets just wait, see and hope that blizzard doesnt do anything stupid.. and that they remove the units that are utterly booring!
