I'm calling it, Hydraroach fusion allowing it to move and shoot like a diamondback and when burrowed fires massive blobs of acid or massive salvos of spines (high rate of fire)

It is the only Zerg unit which is visible even when burrowed.

Poll: Should hydraroach shoot...

massive blobs of roach acid (16)

spine salvos like a stimmed hydra (10)

Your vote: Should hydraroach shoot...

(Vote): spine salvos like a stimmed hydra
(Vote): massive blobs of roach acid

This gets me super excited for next week for when the new protoss unit comes out
This was a very good way to start the day for me..

For the OP I seems like it could be some sort of projectile unit, MAYBE it could be like a unit that shoots other units onto high ground or low ground to avoid protoss force fields and ramp blocks

Man i was hoping the we would get the hydra-roach.
That being said, i could see it morphing from hydra's so that hydras would finally have a good reason to be used. (still am praying for the lurker)

something like this no? The back part is really interesting, I think it may allow units to be loaded/fired


It's a mold between roach and hydra! OMFG IT HAPPENED!

Pretty much. It looks like a lurker wannabie

This looks similar to the arachnid plasma bug from Starship Troopers.

Interviews from Blizzard also state that they get a lot of their "inspirations" from sci-fi films such as Starship Troopers.

This new zerg unit possible shoots from the front instead of the back.
Not from concentrate.

It is already out, it's a ship like unit that makes little ships.

Bingo. I think this is a great analysis.

If this thing really shoots banelings it's going to be so funny and imba :D unless of course projectile is very slow then it's would be cool.

I really doubt it is the lurker. They said they are going to put the lurker in the campaign. This is the time to make new achievements, not linger on the past.

As a zerg my dream for this unit is that it's a hydra+roach+infestor unit. Shoot ground, air, armored, and the cannon looking thing on the back is for a range 13 neural parasite........ If any part of this is true get ready for nonstop zvz!!

Thats a great analysis, other than the Hydra part, I think it's a Roach. The front claws are straight from the Roach and the front legs are thicker and more sturdy, indicating stability for sieging up. The ability to shoot Banelings would be weird and amazing.


The face is EXACTLY the same as a hydra though.... the only way this can happen is if.. oh my god.. do you merge a roach/hydra to make this unit?

Dustin Browder said in the CatZ interview that the colossus should be removed and that toss need a harass unit. Two birds with one stone?

But then again, the new warp prism is pretty good harass.
