I don't really see how the effectiveness of a hellion would change if you took away the wheels and made it walk, without changing it's armor type. It's still got the same chassis, but it's slower. It's got the same weapon so it can't shoot air...

Like... What would the point be? I don't understand.

I'm almost 100% sure that it will NOT be a transforming unit. Blizzard stated numerous times that one of the hardest obstacles in designing a new unit is making it unique. There is absolutely no way they would pull another transforming unit.

I don't see it being a fire type of unit, given it's appearance it would seem slower than the hellion and there for much less useful in a lot of situations. Even if it had more health I'd just prefer to make more hellions because they seem to have much more uses.

I hope they add another mech unit that can shoot up, I really like mech like 1000 times more than bio.

I have an idea. It's going to be a unit produced from factory that goes well with both bio and mech. The thing obviously has legs so it walks, and I can't imagine the speed of it walking being that of Thor. (1.88?) Blizzard stated that they wanted both Bio and Mech viable in TvT, due to mech TvT turning into a boring turtle-fest for spectators. So this unit might be just that - bridging the gap between Bio and Mech. Stim is out of the question since it's mech but the base move speed might be 2.25 just like marine/marauders. So somehow they designed a unit that complements both bio-based play and mech-based play. (Not sure how that would work)

And maybe at the same time this unit might make mech viable in TvP? I know it's an ambitious goal and we'll see if Blizz succeeds.

LOL What are you the most negative person in the world?

They will take some away I'm sure. But right now we're talking about the units that will appear in their place and none of your negativity mister.

I think that could be it. 2.25 speed (same as marine/marauder), produced in factory, no stim, shoots up. Marines/hellions (especially hellion speed) being nerfed for compensation. I definitely see hellion's move speed reduced because right now hellions are just out of control in every match-ups. They turned out to be even better mineral dump than marines.

It's a silhouette of lurker art from almost 3 years ago. It's fake.

I don't want walking mech. I want realistic, treads/hover/wheels mech please. And make the animations jerky, like the walkers on Hoth.


Yes. Because hover vehicles are totally realistic.

And how is the Thor's animation not jerky? If it's feet weren't so big, it looks like the thing would fall over under a stiff breeze.


Someone obviously never watched Sgt. Bilko.

They will have to make bio viable against mech in TvT. I can count the number of TvT's I've watched with one hand after the GSL super tournament, after which TvT became mech v mech. It's not that there is anything wrong with mech play but that I can't spend 30+ minutes just to watch one freaking game where actions are minimal. This is year 2011 and not everyone has that much time and patience.
