why is everyone saying flying unit? doesn't look like a flying unit to me. Looks very probe like, as if it floats around on the ground. It even has those blue sparks that probes use to harvest minerals.

lack of imagination i think.

i would like to think that protoss would get a ground "raiding" unit. something like hte hellion thats meant to get in and get out of, say, an expansion. they are kinda lacking in that department though. we shall see soon enough, at blizzcon, though!

ok thats the most detail your gonna get out of the pic. the black parts are literally 0:0:0 in RGB and no detail can be gotten out of em.

the original color isn't changed in any way, just the brightness/contrast settings.
I only make 5 actions per minute. But since I use all my time deliberating and planning, my 5 actions are so brutally devastating that children cry out and grown men weep.

As far as air-to-air combat goes, the Corsair >>> the Phoenix.



how can you compare two different units in two different games? they fill the same role, that's why I don't understand why people are saying "omg plz be the corsair".

It wasn't in BW, obviously!


I think it's because of this...

Reminds me a lot of the corsair in look, but that wouldn't make sense with the current unit spread. Protoss also has the mothership as an aircaster so I wonder.

The blue sparks on probes are plasma cutters, which are more like laser drills than what the mystery unit has.

That would be nice if Protoss had a really fast ground unit, like vultures or hellions or speedlings.

Fucking immobile race -.-'

imo it's a flying reaver
functions similarly to bw reaver shuttle combos, but without the need for a shuttle
the scarabs won't cost money but will take time to charge up attacks

looks a lot like a corsair, and blizz did say they wanted a harrass unit for toss, maybe this is meant to harass zergs early on because early game TvP is pretty well balanced (except for 1/1/1 but a harass unit wouldn't exactly help that) so they just wanted something useful for ZvP early(ish) game

Dunno if it's been mentioned yet but what if it was a flying caster that helped regenerate protoss shields. It might have some rudimentary attack but it's main purpose is to counteract emp?

The problem is that the phoenix already fills that role and provides the ability to kill workers/CC.

perhaps it can use the planet cracker ability? could be a good raider and makes sense for its large radius and electric stuff.

Blizzard said they are thinking of giving Protoss a harass unit. This looks like what they're talking about.

It's a colossus necklace, gives them another 4 range to help the death ball...

In all seriousness hoping for air spell caster.
