New Protoss units sound op :D Oracle is like the ultimate harrass and scout unit. I wonder how fast it will fly.

EDIT: Toss now only needs to build replicants with some gateway support in PvP and hope the other toss builds some tech so they can copy it but have more minerals as they only needed a robotics (i guess?). As soon as the other toss has 1 HT, the player with replicants can have 10 (?).

All the people asking for multiplayer usage.
Just look at the top of the picture, there's the bottom half letters of MULTIPLAYER sticking out
Sooooo.
FUCK YEAH TEMPEST.
Can't wait to see how replicants will work, and if you can replicate an ennemy unit !
It's just a game.... but it's a damn good game !

Very likely considering Dustin Browder has said that the thor was a failure and it was considered for removal.

The warhound seems like a goliath/thor hybrid.

The Swarm Host seems to duplicate the role of the infestor spewing infested terran. I wonder if the IT spell is on the way out.

As you can just about read 'multiplayer' at the top of the protoss units, i'd say there pretty confirmed for MP.

Also DARK SWARM!!!

Is it confirmed these will both be multiplayer units? It will be interesting to see how fast the swarm host spawns units and what those units are. Hopefully the units will be like broodlings, so they don't take up supply. Adding the ability to pull units around seems kind of pointless for the viper. Its kind of hard to think of a situation where its worthwhile to put a support unit on the front lines to pull a friendly unit back or grab a single enemy unit.



Nothing is really confirmed, i personally could believe they are adding 3 units per race (in multiplayer). They still might take a few units out, like Reaper, Corrupter and some Toss unit nobody uses (CARRIER?)

I hope they are adding all these

Well it does say 'multiplayer' in all caps above the units so I think it's a fair assumption.



Dont forget that they said that they will remove units too...

Really like Blizzards ideas with the new units.

More micro intensive spellcasters! =D

Also... remember the game is still in development. All units are subject to change, or removal.

Flying Defiler, sick news.
On another note, i'm worried that all this new stuff needs to be balanced because it seems kinda OP.

That's awesome!

Zerg got their defiler and lurker back, Terran got newer OP units, and apparently Protoss got the ability to mass Replicants, which allow us to copy imba Terran units.

Just kidding ^^ But Tempest replacing Carrier function?

So the units we are getting:

Zerg
-----------
Flying Defiler
Lurker

Terran
------------
Goliath with splash air damage
Hellion that turns into a toughened firebat
Zealot turned super-sayan?

Protoss
------------
Changeling that fights
Overseer
Flying Thor-meets-voidray

Presumably they are going to be removing the Thor then?

Swarm Host is kinda like a Broodlord? Says it spawns "attackers" will these be like Broodlings or look different?

The unit just looks so badass,

Yeah, I mean the discription basicly is the thor.

Thank god, Thor was so out of place.
Bigger than a CC, was definately a WC3 unit in SC universe.
