I'm kind of glad they removed the carrier. It was a sad example of the past that should change.

The carrier just doesn't fit into SC2 gameplay, it's why it's never used and nothing you can change about it will make it a viable unit. This new capital ship could be awesome for protoss.

This is the reason why I just can't see them removing the Overseer. I think they will have to add it back in.


Ravens are 200 gas O_O. Zergs won't be happy until detection comes free with overlords.


You can scan, you can even build turrets where you want, the only other detection we have is spore crawlers, and we can only build them on creep.

Also, the swarm host is a bit of a fail. Lurkers were deadly to marines because they had a long-range, AOE attack. Being able to spawn units, that can die as they are born, is a significantly weaker power.


What this means is that they'll be effective during battles, but not when harassing armies. Every time a spawn dies, it means that a roach or hydra gets to live instead. It's fairly useless when harassing armies since they will just die as they spawn, which is different from DT or banshee harass.

Which means less continuous ebb and flow excitement between big battles and harassment, and more turtling until the moment of engagement when everything happens in 10 seconds and then the game's over. Great!

I just remember how good lurkers were and now this... thing... tries to replace my precious.
That is not dead which can eternal lie...

Remember when we first saw SC2 at blizzcon? A lot of shit changed since then. Hell, a lot has been patched since release, I highly doubt all of this will remain as is upon release of HoTS.

There is no way replicants will be able to take workers, think about warp prism/storm drop, but just have 1 replicant and 2 templar, then steal an SCV and suddenly mid/late game you can make orbital commands instead of nexus. And have mules.

That said I dislike the move towards so many spellcasters, maybe not from a gameplay perspective, but from an Esports perspective, it makes it more confusing as to what's going on. I prefer the tactical element of unit positioning.



It makes emp a lot stronger.

Sick stuff, I'm 99% sure it's time to switch to zerg with the rest of the bandwagon.
Our Protoss, Who art in Aiur HongUn be Thy name; Thy stalker come, Thy will be blunk, on ladder as it is in Micro Tourny. Give us this win in our daily ladder, and forgive us our cheeses, As we forgive those who play zerg against us.

Corrupters need to be gone and replaced with scourge, also Terran only needs 1 more unit or 2 they already of too much stuff.

Spore crawlers move, and scans kill off the entire Terran economy. Not to mention things can just run out of scan range.

Also it already sounds like Viper is going to be way better than the Raven, so it's not like you're getting some dumb useless unit like Terran would have to.
