lol I'll take either of your units over a crappy new version of the Thor., a slower hellion and a unit I have to put somewhere I'm not in order for it to be useful.
Live it up.

The new protoss units don't sound very fun to me.

Replicant:
If I wanted to use zerg or terran units, I would play zerg or terran. These things sound like such a pain in the ass to micro: Have to get it melee range of an enemy unit, cast the spell, then get away without losing the replicant. Seems very micro-intensive, especially against concussive shell. So to me this unit sounds like a big APM-dump that I can use to do something that I can also achieve just by changing my race before the match starts.


Ok, so maybe i am dumb, but i dont get your post.

1. The Replicant allows you to use your enemy units in combination with your own. Changing to Terran limits your unit choice to pure terran, picking zerg allows you to control your enemy units for a very short amount of time. So "just changing my race" doesnt work.

2. You dont need to get in melee range.

But maybe its not me who is dumb.

That's pretty cool mind you, but it'd be nice to be able to actually kill the workers rather than just disable them for a short time, like, you know, banshees and hellions etc.


Sure, give all terran units shield like toss have and i'm fine with you having a banshee/hellion.


Your units have plenty of hp and you have medivacs/repair. Seriously, what you have is better than shields, and you can't get EMP'd and take stupid amounts of damage due to having no shields. Not to mention you don't need a separate upgrade for half your hp. Shields are a weakness, not a strength.

Wow... I'm actually impressed. I was 100% certain the units were going to be terrible remakes, but they actually have a few really cool sounding ideas. The transforming hellion is the only one I really dislike, but I REALLY like the Toss units.

This is the worst idea ever. If Blizz didn't learn from their complete failure called the "mothership," I don't know how they ever would have thought this was a good idea.

Man, that Viper grap + neural parasite is going to SUCK for toss.

You built 6 colossi? Well he's got 6 infestors and 6 vipers. Now they're zerg units. It also just makes using high tech units pointless.

Yah... it would completely counter ANY unit that it wanted to..... its ridiculous..

Yeah but remember that their true love is terran so if a hero unit will work it will work for terran.

I dont know how to feel. Half of me is intregued while the other half is thinking "WTF was is blizzard doing".

Hopefully after I see the units put into play it will all make sense ... HOPEFULLY
