Check it out.

That looks pretty legit there... where have you heard Protoss is based around the eldar?(just curious)


lol is this real or a clever troll?

Just look up anything WH40k related.

Well played sir.


The more I look at this the more I subscribe to the "fast hovering ground unit" theory. I can see it having a basic laser attack (like a Stalker but only ground-to-ground) but also an energy attack that charges up the laser (shoop da woop) and fires a splashing orb like a Reaver (except without as wide a radius) that does bonus damage to light units. The splash attack costs 75 and has a cooldown of ~3 seconds. I can see it being a light unit, about the same speed as a Hellion.

I hoped it would be a substitute for the colossus as an AoE damage dealer.
Oh well, i guess too many found that unit "cool and fun".
the game is the game

I think I know what it'll be. It'll be a reaver-vulture!!!!.

Browder thought to himself, protoss needs AoE early on, and lacks a harass unit. Well now with the reaver-vulture, not only can you oneshot 10 workers at once, you can also one shot 10 marines at once. 20+30vslight in 1.5 AoE. Moves with the speed of a hellion, with speed upgradable from robo bay for 150/150.

My first feeling when seeing it without reading the thread was that it might be some hovering unit. Might be fun to see a fast protoss ground unit.

LOL just noticed, tip the gateway over and you get something that looks like the outline haha


Commercial advertiser's voice: Have you ever been upset by an enemy Terran lifting their buildings after you defeat them, acting with inconsiderate and bad mannered behavior? Well, have no fear! For now you can also bad manner your opponents, with the new FLYING GATEWAY. Get your new FLYING GATEWAY now, and watch as you lift up your buildings to the anger and rage of Terran players who are better at cheesing than you are. With this new FLYING GATEWAY, you can now perform all sorts of new strategic maneuvers, such as but not limited to: kamikaze building to blow into the poor units below, suicidal FLYING GATEWAY cheese into those dang marines, or smother enemies by stomping on them with a crashing production structure once used to produce zealots, stalkers, and sentries. Also, for an upgrade of only 300/300, a FLYING GATEWAY can shoot giant laser beams of death.
Batteries not included.

Am I the only one that wants NEW units and not BW units?

I have already played BW, I want a new game. This is one step in the right direction (as long as it is not a scout with a new model).

If Protoss gets the Reaver as well, I will do what I can to watch the GSL commentated by the Korean commentators. RIVU RIVU RIVU RIVU!!! Then again, I hear that enough from watching BW, so meh :S.

I hope its a replacement for sentry. It's the unit that will come from gateways and will work like shield battery (basically its a medic), also it has some spells but no force fields. It will synergize well with zealots on the front lines, as well as with stalkers which will come back for fast heal from blink harass.

I really hate that right now Sentries are the key units in PvT and PvZ and not landing correct forcefields often times cost u the game.

So it's a unit Protoss deserves, but not one it needs right now?

thats what I am thinking as well, the fast hovering harass unit. Thats one thing Blizz said they were looking into adding to protoss right?
