I think it's an air unit that comes from robo. That way robo play has more diversity than just GtG

I saw this and thought "Arbiter". I know it doesn't look anything like it, but at least it would make some sense.

Sentry PRIME. It's forcefields are the size of the mothership itself, and it's guardian shield covers half the map.

Whatever it will be it will increase the chance to faceroll by 200%! Looking forwards to more flying DT's that shit destructible rocks!

Another Stargate unit for me to not make...

Hopefully it'll actually be useful!

My take on it as a new Stargate unit.

I'd have to hazard a guess that it acts as a slow moving bomber with no native attack. Produces something akin to scarabs and drops them straight down with high damage and light splash -- Some desperately needed AOE down the Stargate tech tree.

Then, in order to make the Carrier more useful it has some upgrades at the Stargate that help it stay powerful into the later game. e.g., a toggleable speed boost that disables Scarab production and other abilities, or a technological version of Maelstrom to add some soft-detection.

This would be amazing. An air reaver. Serves the same function but has a less intimidating skill curve.

Oh man I want it to be that now.

The design is pretty ambiguous. It could realistically do anything.

I wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard isn't even sure what it's going to do yet, besides fly. (And heck, it could just be a hovering ground unit like the sentry.)

Spell caster that fly's sees like the only thing that could be as a Protoss unit. Can't wait for blizzcon!

id say giving toss yet another potent aoe-dmg source would be a horrible decision. guess its a stargate spellcaster, but without an aoe

It could be a Hover Tank.
Like the Warhammer 40K Eldar Wave Serpent.

Wouldn't it be better if it had a higher skill curve? Sc2 right now feels pretty 1A, any noob can take a game or two off a better player. If anything this game needs to be harder to be more successful as an eSport.. Take bw for an example, most of TL was D+-C+ because it was so hard, no noob could even challenge a top dog.

As for the idea of a bomber, that would be pretty sick however I think that Idea would be more suited to terran. What if it was a flying unit that had to cast the bombs similar to Storm, a smaller radius and lets say 15 damage or so on a 50 energy, that way they they can be kept rather cheap, etc.

all three units look like pokemon. dont really like the design from what I see.

looks like a support unit from the robo. How can you guys be so sure it's a stargate unit. doesn't the sentry hover as well?


I can't see it coming from the robo, the design just seems to clunky for a ground unit.

The clunkiest ground unit of all time came from the robo once upon a time...

I seriously think is a hover vehicle from the ROBO or a interceptor upgrade for the CARRIER.

those spine things are not protosslike, its more like infested protoss...

on the unit itself, its probably a air unit, and I think its bad move to add it because protoss got good air units already.

very fast, weak, harrasment and aa unit
medium on speed and dmg, allround good unit
slow, strong and costly unit

I would rather see good gateway unit, like an upgraded stalker, becasue state of gateway units vs barracks or zerg t1 is very bad.

ht rapes barracks units, everying that comes out of the gateway rapes t1 and t2 except for infestors. what are u talking about?


You're protoss and that's really your opinion about gateway units? Man you must be dominating on ladder!

I'm masters random.
