Looks a bit like spider to me, even though not with eight legs. So what if it creates some kind of 3d webs? I would love if they add purely 3d aspects to some units. Just because they have the engine. Otherwise it's almost a waste. (When I first saw WarCraft 3, I thought "wtf, all this can be done in 2d..")

evolved form of roaches,
the back part shoots spines (AA, T1.5)
when burrowed (ie. T2) its seige like lurkers.

Ya, because we wouldn't want Zerg to have their own version of a siege tank. Only Terran can be imba.

It is absolutely a roach that morphs into a seige unit. I myself have speculated on this unit since it became known to the public that the Lurker was not going to be in SC2:WOL.

This appeases me greatly, if my assertations are correct. I may have to switch to the swarm...

You really think that, of all the terran units, tanks are imba? Really?

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).


wow really seems like you may be onto something here...

this is a good picture indeed... i don't think it's roach related as roaches don't need to evolve, hydras do. they could use some buff ^^

Too bad marines will probably be able to outrange it.

This is looking too much like it will fill the same role as a reaver. Makes it seem very likely that the reaver probably won't return.

You know what pissed me off about this unit; even though i'm excited about new Zerg unit(s).

That this unit looks like its going to be $&#*ing immobile so when you go to attack a base on many maps the Terran and/or protoss etc can now base race you similar to the situation of when you have brood lords on a large map and they don't have to engage your army because your main attack unit is so $%&ing slow.

I'm just hoping this Unit isn't slow as hell like Broodlords.

Seems like something designed to tank damage, not deal it.

Maybe it can kind of curl into its shell to become immune to damage or something.

Zerg with a Tank unit early on might be way too strong. They could just set up siege lines and drone up like crazy with the spawn larva mechanic. If it is a tank unit it should be a higher tech unit.

I think it's a hydra morph since hydras are useless now (and roaches aren't). Something lurker-esque.

It has defenitely something to do with banelings, It looks like a roach/baneling combo, hopefully its somthing like a more tanky baneling, kinda same armor and hp like a roach, would be more balanced.
