Its a lurker, but its attack is like a spine crawler rather than a sunken colony.

A baneling launcher would be completely OP against terran period and would force mech/or air terran every game lol. No real way to micro away from a baneling shooting siege unit. How hilarious would it be if it was a zergling launcher and seeing zerglings fly through the sky.

Kinda looks like that plasma-launching bug from Starship Troopers

ummm they could remove the corruptor and make Blords come out of Mutas. And the Blord is fine as it is I think so I don´t think ti will get tweaked much

Probably the equivalent of a Zerg Siege Tank, I think. Definitely not a Lurker, but probably going to perform a similar role as a positional, siege-ish unit. Actually, I'm happy that they're not just adding in the Lurker again, because if this new unit turns out to be better than the Lurker, then good riddance.

I think the big question is whether or not this will be Lair tech or Hive tech, and if it'll mean that Blizzard will be adjusting the roles of the Hydra and Roach to reflect this.

As someone pointed out earlier, it's most definitely a Hydralisk evolve as the head is clearly a Hydras. My quick Photoshop skills proves that!

Is it just me or does it look like a one-legged and one-handed marine with a tail? This would support SOTG's idea of a new marine unit in every race.

I really can't see anything else but this:
