Hydras could actually be cool if they weren't hard countered 2 minutes after you can start making them. They promote the use of creep highways, nydus worms, drops... If they get an evolution that extends their usefulness (not the broodlord type, but something that's more massable like the baneling) people will realise they're actually interesting and have potential. | ||

no, not gonna happen, wrong race. I'd like to repeat my conjecture of a ranged support unit with a devourer-like spore attack. It could have a range of 6-7 and attack ground and air targets with spores, that would do medium splash damage with low rate of fire. Or maybe no splash damage, just aoe infestation of enemy units with spores. These spores would remain for some seconds, increasing damage taken by the target from each attack by 1. Probably stackable (like devourer's attack). It would be a very useful support unit that could complement both melee units (zerglings, broodlings) and ranged units (especially hydralisks and mutalisks). | ||

This is amazing, it is definitely this. They are putting hydra-roach in and the hydra needs the parachute for when the roach dies | ||

Long answer: No, because Dustin specifically said when that footage was released that it was just the animators mucking around and that it wouldn't be in any of the games. Sure, it is possible that they decided to use it anyway, but no more likely than the other wacky ideas people are putting up in the thread. | ||

I will prefer this over a "zerg siege tank". Come on guys, SC2 is about 3 different races, not the same ideas with different skins. If you like the siege tank idea, just play terran. | ||

Why would a support unit need them? Should be some sexy buffed big-bro of lil cute Hydra, ripping apart anyone who's been doing bad things to fragile sister.

If you like the siege tank idea, just play terran. ahm? Broodlord is already a siege unit on the zerg race, Guardian was a siege unit on zerg race... so why should zerg not get a siege unit? Also range 6-7... sounds pretty longrange in a spectrum of range 0-4 playable units that the zerg race right now has + broodlords and infestors. Also just because a unit is longrange, you shouldn't just say it's a "Race Y Siege Tank", because the balancing for such a unit would be completly different. (Range, splash, dps, "siege mode", armor, HP, larvamechanism-nerf...) | ||

Blizz just decided to make a gift to all 'hydra sucks' QQers :D I don't think there is enough evidence to call this thing huge. The claws are impressive indeed, but who said they are large? Roaches have almostly identical claws and they are not large a t all. Judging on the hydra's head I'd say this thing is probably as large as a queen  | ||

(Range, splash, dps, "siege mode", armor, HP, larvamechanism-nerf...) I said "zerg siege tank" not "zerg siege unit" I meant a roach-esque beefy unit with some bio-cannon on its back wich is slow on ground and need to be planted to fire at maximum effect at long range and doing splash damage. (i.e. the terran siege tank with zerg skin) But instead, a supporting unit with some kind of devourer attack, or enemy debuff to join your core army will be great. Zerg already have siege unit (BL) and ground AoE slash damage (blings) and they are good in their current form. | ||
