it's an air unit that comes out of the robo. It is essentially a mobile (albeit slow moving) shield battery with the ability to grant invulnerability for 15-30 seconds on 1 unit, which consumes all energy. So the new 4gate will be a rush with this unit coming first out of the robo followed by an immortal with a few stalkers behind it. problem solved

yeah i'm convinced that's what it is

teleporting your entire army into their main is a pretty good harass option

it'll probably have recall and some new crowd control spell like vortex and stasis but not functioning like either

getting rid of the mothership seems like a good idea overall and arbiters do mesh well with the current protoss deathball mentality

Either something to replace the Phoenix or a very fast hovering ground harass unit.

Does seem that its general purpose is to harass, though.

I've just realised what the Zerg silhouette is:

The death animation of a hydralisk when this thing shoots it.
The existence of a food chain is inescapable if we evolved unsupervised, and inexcusable otherwise.

This. They could say that the Protoss acquired Batman's Batwing and have incorporated it into their air force.

So does anyone else think this thing has to come from a phoenix somehow? I mean the units for the other races seemingly morph or transform it only makes since this one does also.
[image loading]
This picture shows key features of the Phoenix that could change into features on the new unit.
The wings simply bend forward to create the more arched look of the new units "wings". The cockpit area of the phoenix slides back when it changes into the new unit. The area circled in red on the phoenix changes into either of the sets of red circles on the new unit. The area boxed in orange on the phoenix folds down into the area circled in orange on the new unit. This is possibly where the weapon is housed. The yellow circle on the phoenix spreads apart into the yellow circles on the new unit.

Could be! Definitly looks that way from your illustration. So maybe the phoenix can now either change into an AtG unit like a Viking does or you have to upgrade the Phoenix to an AtG unit and it stays that way. With the speed of the Phoenix and a AtG attack it certainly would be an awesome harass unit.
