jk  I just have no idea how they are going to make an air unit for protoss work, with mass muta balls and marine viking being so popular. | ||

Colossus could always be removed/changed and this could be a somewhat low-tech medium splash since protoss lacks any decent early game splash to contend with things like mass marine from the 1-1-1. Could also lead to a major sentry nerf/removal since if protoss has a unit able to deal with clumps of small units like mass zergling forcefields wouldn't need to be nearly as powerful. Plus no collision = easier fungals, thor shots, EMPs. | ||

Alternatively: 2. Might serve as a kind of harass (cliff jumping?) unit. The ridges on the sides indicate splash melee damage if it were to "charge" through units. Line 'em up, hellion style; attack with a manually-casted charge ability. If it were a flying unit, this ability would be a good answer to mutalisks, like the corsair. 3. Extra damage to light? 4. Ability to land like viking? | ||

Its also called a speed prism, a DT, and a storm drop. speed prisms expensive, DTs are expensive and only work when there's no detection, storm drop has bigger risk reward than any other harass unit out there. Balance talk aside, keep in mind that they're just showing off 1 unit each and the harass unit, if there is one, may be one of the ones Blizzard chose not to show. | ||
