Everyone seeing a zerg-siegetank needs their eyes checked out (and then switch to terran).

The bulge on top is obviously a shell/umbrella type protection. This is definitely going to be the zerg armadillo, a 2.5 unit morphed out of a single hydralisks. See picture, and imagine it retracting it's extremely wide legs towards the body too.

My idea:

EDit: just as a Hidraliska, 2 claws, no legs, a body with a tail, but now the tail is the weapon, so it moves even slow. The body is thin till the modification (evolution) kicks in, the claws should be simetrical though >.>

I remember a thread a while back that purported to have a screenshot of what looked like a zerg unit with a destroyed bunker on it, perhaps this is that unit??

either way, I just hope it has cool micro or spells involved, sc2 really needs that at this point.

Just something I noticed about the legs. The head is there because it's pretty clear where it's from. Either way, it looks awesome (as it should).

As it has been said its prob a Siege unit, nothing much to say about this.

What surprises me is how lame some jokes thrown around here are XD

Well lets play semantics... then. What do you want to call something immobile that can't move while firing? Either way you still have no idea of the range or the damage or weather it is aoe or not...

I'm not sure you're on my case. I originally said that I hope it doesn't have siege range, meaning a long range (9+) like Colossi with TL or Siege Tanks in siege mode. I don't consider the Lurker a siege unit, but now that I think about it in one sense of the word it is. I'll try to clearer with my language in the future. But had you read what I originally said it would've been clear that I have no issue with positional units that attack in an immobile form, since I like the Lurker and think it is indeed very zergy.
