But they want to make $$ and it's hard to do that without adding something new. Look at Street Fighter 4. I loved the original SF4 but it's now so disgusting with bazillion characters.

I bet its like a slow moving anti-air +damage to light units with aoe

Particularly a counter to mutalisks.

I dont forsee mass pheonix being used vs terran

IMO this unit looks ridiculous and is more awkward than a ground-mode viking

It's probably a cheaper mech unit (thor) that can attack both ground and air. Most likely blizzards thought process was to make mech more viable and not have thor as the only anti air

There will be more to counter the units as well.

Now units have different purposes... for one purpose it might be balanced, but for another purpose OP. Lets use pre-patch blue flame as an example: It was considered OP versus workers, but considered a resonable upgrade versus zerglings (if i can believe the talk on this forum). Because the upgrade is nerved to make it more balanced against workers, it's no longer cost effective against zerglings (or upgraded zergling... at least i heard it lost it's use in certain situations not relating to workers (i play Protoss, so i'm not 100% sure)).
If those uses are split up over two units. The one unit can be nerfed and the other won't be affected, making if a bit easier to balance.

When there are too many units, it will be a lot harder to balance, but i don't think we will reach that point by adding up to 3 units.
IMO it's much more important to have specific uses for each unit and not create redundant units.

I definitely think it's going to be a walker unit that the hellion and transform to, much like how the vinking transforms to it's walker state. Not sure what added effects it would give it. I'm guessing better fire power towards armored units. And I think we can all agree that terran needs more fire power.

It's a firebat! The hellion is going to be able to transform form in to a slower moving walking unit that shoots fire in more of a wide cone, and less of a line.

I've got it! It's a marauder that ripped the flamethrower off a hellion and stuck it on its back, so it gets the hellion weapon in addition to it's normal missile launchers.

Sigh... Blizzard never EVER ceases to amaze me with their anti-zerg stance. I bet if it was up to them, Zerg would receive NOTHING in HotS. But in all reality I expect the Terran unit to be awesome, the Protoss unit to be pretty cool, and the Zerg unit unoriginal and weak.

Mark my words... but please let me be wrong!

Going in campaign order means Blizz favors terran, more at 11.
