Pretty sure he meant air-to-air unit
edit: or at least I sure fucking hope so


Vikings are the best air to air in the game (not that it takes much).

But I dont think he was talking about air to air.

That was the joke...

In all seriousness, I highly doubt this unit will be anti-air, as the Viking seemed like a pretty good design and Marines will obviously stay.

Actually, the Viking is not a good design from a gameplay perspective. Having the best anti-air unit with its range be an air unit is pretty problematic. It just shuts down all sorts of options for Blizzard in balancing the game and creating other air units.

Terran does have enough anti-air so I doubt this will be one. Best guess is something to slow down enemy units to protect siege tanks. The threat of spider mines did that in BW and terran has no comparable unit in SC2. Not to mention that they need to balance terran so that the best complementary units to siege tanks would have no anti-air. That way, there's a trade off between fielding the best anti-ground army and being vulnerable to air.

Personally I feel HOTS should remove instead of add a Terran unit to balance things out a bit.
Maybe the marine?

Hi, I'm kinda new to starcraft, and TvP is so imba, toss autowins every game. Will this new unit hard counter the protoss race?

+ Show Spoiler +
I'm kidding, don't ban me.
I hate when people compare SC2 and rochambeu. One race isn't fucking supposed to counter another one. | Protoss isn't OP. Their units on the other hand....

Maybe they might have to deviate from their standard course of action if the opponent goes for an air build. Gasp!

The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

It is actually a liability unit: a command center produces one every 5 minutes (automatically spending 100 minerals), and if it is killed before it explodes (like a mule), then the terran loses 300 minerals. This is for balance reasons
