I think this is a roach hydra baby.

Basically you need roach and hydra to make sweet love, not like those gay high/dark templars and the roach and hydra make a hydroach baby.

HYDROACH! It can do everything, including solve a rubix cube.

rrrrrr.

Old pic from some TL page, idk which, got it off elsewhere.


Good god man, well done. Lets hope the unit is awesome. I demand acid bombs from the sky!!! Or bombs that create creep over a large area.

Now a Protoss unit that makes us not need colossi so badly. Less colossi = better starcraft 2.

Huge digging claws. Suspiciously cannon-y abdomen.

Burrowing attacking unit with a ranged attack. Sticks it's abdomen out from underground and spooges all over marines.

this is stupid, all these guessing games...

blizzard must be out of ideas to have to feed us one every week or so...

would it kill them to tell us which units they want to remove? or maybe a beta date? stupid.

Wasn't there a unit from a previous Heart of the Swarm unveil (the first one I think), with a Zerg unit and a bunker on its back?


a joke unit as far as I know that will probably only make an appearance in campaign. For blizzard to have revealed the infested bunker WITH an animated gif LONG before any HotS news was out from blizzard just goes to show it was a joke unit and wasn't anything serious. I just can't wrap my head around the thought that blizz would release a unit to the public very far before any HotS news and then bring it back as a silhouette and expect us to be wowed.


ohisee...

the back does look like a bunker to me though lol

It's building up hype, it's what any competent company should do. If it sells more copies and makes Sc2 bigger, why not? They are probably taking there time with the expansion (a good sign) and don't want to put out a date they can't realistically hit. There are always going to be last minute things they decide to change, which is good. I hope they make every race feel complete and give every race the good tech options to be relevant in early, mid, and late game scenarios. Believe me I'm the first person to criticize Blizzard when they fuck up, but building up hype and taking their sweet time to get it right is good for Starcraft. I want a beautifully crafted well rounded expansion with every race having powerful options and realistic ways of dealing with everything.

I am anxious to see the expansion too, but try not to let the excitement get the best of you

It probably won't have any similarities with the lurker, meaning no splash and no attack while burrowed. I'm guessing this will be a spellcaster unit.

Probably a new evolution of the hydralisk. But not the lurker. Because f they put the lurker back in it'd be admitting "now we fuxxed up!" and Blizzard would never do that.

I'm guessing it's the re-imagined lurker, but has the benefits of both anti-ground/air attacks. It would also become an armored unit in contrast to the hydralisk's light armor attribute.

The ground attacks can only be initiated only when burrowed and air attacks unburrowed. The unit would probably have the movement speed similar to that of the hydralisk but in a more extreme extent. For example, walking on land with half the speed of the hydralisk as well as burrow movement, and double movement on creep walking/burrowing. I guess for the concept of the siege tank-ish aspect everyone mentions would be similar to that of the mutalisk, the "Glaive Wurm". Attacks could possibly be glaive wurm-ish with piercing armor attributes. I think the name of this bad boy should be the Gravelisk


Don't forget that there should be an option to launch a nuke from it and cast psi-storm.

I would say it is a lurker. It makes perfect sense, as the lurker was the upgrade from the hydralisk in BW, which was tier one, but the upgrade was at lair tech. I think the roach will fulfill the role of the hydralisk in SC2 as it will get a chance to transform into this unit at lair tech. It most likely is a form of siege unit, because zergs desperately need something to hold a position

What's wrong with lurkers man I don't get it? Just bring them back already, you can't possibly improve on that concept while keeping things balanced.

If's it's a baneling cannon i'm switching to Terran, Zerg already has bane drops form overlords, why would we need another unit for that? Personally i hope it's a lurker, zerg could using some siege tech beyond the Broodlord, which are way to vulnerable on their own. So a Broodwar-esque lurker would be fantastic.
