It would be very stupid to alter the baneling instead of the hydralisk. The later definitely needs some tweaking, while the baneling is a unit that is both fun to watch and very important for the zerg army. If you only take that silhouette into account, yeah, it could have something to do with banelings. If you use your brain though, the hydralisks makes much more sense. | ||

I just feel like the BL and this new unit, if it indeed turns out to be a seige tank-esque unit, are not very balanced to have together. Imagine if Terran still had their huge tank lines but instead of marine or hellion meat shields, they have a virtually infinite and free supply of buffer nuts to protect their tanks. I'm pretty sure that blizzard does consider such things. I mean, they took out the lurker because they said that it was overlapping with too many other units. The lurker... The unit others consider to be the most unique and best designed unit ever on this earth  There are really a lot of ways to design units. F.e. The Ultralisk and the Zergling are both rather beefy melee units for their costs. But the Zergling is just so vulnerable to splash, that it really can't be considered to be a tanking unit, while the ultralisk surely is. | ||

Did blizzard really take out the lurker because it overlapped with other units? I hope not because then they're even more stupid than I thought they were, and by they I mean Browder. | ||

Roach is an option but I dont think blizzard would implement roach/hydra morphing just doesnt seem plausible in many scenario's | ||

After the Zerg infested so many Protoss, they have extracted the knowledge to conduct merges of their own. This unit will have resilience of a roach and dps of a hydra. Power overwhelming! Oh and looks like it shoots out banelings as well. | ||

Well the official statements to the lurker are stuff like: "The baneling was already a splash unit, the roach already a tank unit." "We really tried to keep it in the game because we really liked the idea, but in the end noone of us ever really utilized it." also there is the rumor, that the removal of the lurker has something to do with the hydra going to T2, because then the lurker would have had to go to T3... but then it was already "outdated" - which plays again in the same category... There was no unique use for the lurker. And to be honest, I really do think that it is a good thing to get rid of units, that overlap too much. Especially when it comes down to zerg, because as zerg there comes the point of the game, when most techs will be available and therefore overlapping techs won't see a lot of play, because one will just be better. | ||
