EPTIt does look kind of like a more bulky medic - I really hope it isn't, though.

It's a support robot with shield arms that can be extended over a pack of marines to absorb colossus beams! | ||

Its not like i'm praying to have the colosus removed (our OP unit) He probably wants an anti-armored unit that requires flair to use instead of one that makes the audience groan when they see it. There are ways to design a counter rather than having a completely vanilla unit with lots of hit points and an arbitrary damage bonus. | ||

Im a terran and i hate the marauder How is it any more boring or no skill than a Marine, or a Stalker, or an Immortal, or a Hydralisk, or a Roach? They are all point and shoot units that only require micro at the highest levels. | ||

But now I clearly see the "legs" of biological being so it's gotta be a barracks unit. to me the attachments still look more like landmines then wheels | ||

However, for the moment I believe Blizzard will simply cut units that are too similar in style and mechanics or perhaps it is better to say they will cut units they feel will compete for exactly the same job. In this case, why have 2 vehicles with flamethrowers attached? I could be dead wrong. I cannot wait to see what they will do for Zerg and Protoss. It could just be a hellion with a new form. Same stats, but you now research a transformation that gives the unit more legs in the late game. I would't be shocked in terran mech gets a few things like this. I want to see what protoss gets. I want another basic unit that can buffer the mid game and make the whole game less colossi focused. Also, upgrades for all unloved units, immortal, hyrda, carrier, ultra. It worked in BW, it can work in SC2. | ||
