Are you serious? or just trolling me?
What on earth could mass pheonix possibly do vs a competent terran that would be cost effective?
If terran can shut down mass muta, they sure as hell can shut down mass pheonix. If a protoss puts too much money into the pheonix they will just get rolled by MMG
The only thing pheonix are currently used for is fodder vs vikings and against seige tanks

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
Terran has enough counters to mutalisk imo, giving them another way to fight against muta would be overkill.

It's a Goliath with combat shields glued to it. And a flame thrower.
|
I don't know if it has been said already but it will be a unit that does not get slaughtered by siege tanks! That's the only thing you can count on.
|
By the look of that unit, I'm sure this is trolling. If it's not, then /facepalm Just terrible design and not starcraftish.
|
My personal opinion:
|
Unit proportions should not be square. Square proportions are for toddlers and kids. It should be tall or wide or deep. Blizzard needs to hire some unit art designers with a fresh perspective.

The thing in its head looks like a missile... and it looks like he's holding 2 guns so I guess the missile is for heavy armored units and guns for other units..

just like robot jox. .....thats perfect. Hopefully one of its ability's is this....

I think this is going to be some kind of hellion/walker transformer. Also with a blue post saying "cute little robot" i expect it to be build in the factory. There are still a lot of important questions though:
1. Will its type be pure mech or bio/mech? 2. Do you get the hellion with an upgrade for the transformation into its new form or the other way around? 3. Does it attack air? 4. Does it replace anything else besides the standard hellion? What about the marauder?
|
i totally expect a remodel to the mule to look just like claptraps, though!
|
its a hellion that can unfold to have have all science vessel spells from broodwar 100% and fly.
