So it doesn't matter where it's coming from, it's no doubt imbalanced. | ||

Something like 6 dmg + 4 vs light, and a firing speed of 1. Bonus per upgrade would be 1+1. 1 Armor and maybe 40 hp + 40 shields. Cost would be something like 75/50. Can shoot both ground and air (thus good counter vs mutas and drops) and has range of 5. Obviously this unit will not have any spells. It would be light and counter rines and banshees good enough, to make the fucked up 111 useless. And to prevent gayness in PvP and other MUs, this unit is available AFTER warp gate research. (but I think its still fast enough, to make it a good harass unit //// faster tech than WP, phoenix, DT, Blink...) Dude, you'd be okay with chopping the balls off a sentry? What kind of sicko are you? | ||

How actually did you determine the relative size to other units ? Oh wait, you cant. | ||

This is because Blizzard realised that they stole half of the fucking cool shit from Protoss in BroodWar and gave it to Zerg in Wings of Liberty. (Mind Control, etc) What exactly is that "fucking cool shit"? lol First, mind control ain't cool at all, second terran already has dark swarm it's called PDD, and toss with dark swarm would be impossible to break lol - dark swarm + FFs = immune to everything lol. | ||

I don't think it's shield related, since ghosts would probably EMP it just the same as any other unit. | ||

That horrid arc seems more zerg (like many have said, ultralisk-like) than protoss to me. | ||

I seriously doubt they're removing the phoenix, it's my favorite unit in the game, and certainly one of the most fun to use. I'm agree that, with the look of it, and it's size, it's probably going to be a fast airborn spellcaster, that, as others have said, probably has some type of AoE stun attack, or a Air to Ground splash spell... cuz Toss could use a little bit of love there... Edi: What if it was a spellcaster, and the electricity disabled flight capabalilities? Ooh--that could work... Like, opposite of a Phoenix, to neutralize air units... Tasty. | ||

So you do agree with me then? I said that I preferred the art style of Blizz's cinematic team, rather than the people who made the game units. I don't like these new silhouettes so far. Horrid indeed. | ||

A phoenix morphs into this and goes from AtA to AtG attack. And it has a reverse graviton beam that pulls air units to ground level so they can be hit by melee. | ||
