that viper is the most ridiculously OP thing I have seen. Blatantly OP if it can pull massive key units away from the safety of the army like that. Don't know how they can possibly think its ok.

scourge is the most ridiculously OP thing I have seen. Just 2 cheap scourges KILL EVERYTHING. Blantantly OP if they can kill carriers so fast with cloning. Don't know how they thought that can possibly think its ok.

See? you can make anything OP with that attitude.

To be fair the terran units in Wings of Liberty, the terran expansion, were really cool. Ravens, Medivacs, reapers, thors.

It's only fair that Zerg gets some love in this one. I just hope we'll be getting suitable mothership/carrier replacements for Protoss in Legacy of the Void.


Isn't the Tempest supposed to fill the mothership/carrier replacement? It's the new protoss capital ship...I wouldn't toss it aside until you see how powerful it is.

That was my serious reaction, but if you want more:

We get a flying defiler, that's awesome and I want it now.

I think HOTS is the "shot in the arm" that zerg needed. These new units and abilities look incredible, I wouldn't be surprised if zerg dominated for a while after release.


Exactly my friend the Zerg and Swarm will be rejuvenated and the Swarm will become Dominant !

I'm really looking forward to see how strong those units that Burrow and Spawn Units are.

How is replicant not going to OP?..Can you just make replicants and make whatever units you need to counter opponent?


Terran's aren't screwed. They just got Firebats and Goliaths only they don't look as cool.

Terran got screwed that it won't be (hopefully) NEARLY as dominant as they were prior to the expansion, expect a lot of Terran whine. I'm bring my cheese out, only seems fitting to go with w(h)ine.

Yeah it is really awkward but i'm going to love yanking those Colossus out of Protoss Death Balls :D

Well... Look at the old Neural Parasite. Instead of keeping them out of the battle you just grab them and kill them . Colossus are already a unit that needs to be babysat constantly... It is VERY easy to get a colossus killed if it gets anywhere near the main Zerg army. This just makes the colossus kind of useless don't ya think?

Is it just me that see the drones begins to move toward the energy triangle at 1:39. Maybe it forces workers toward them and inflicts damage.
I guess it would have been mentioned in the description of the unit though so I'm just guessing

What?

Such an iconic unit fo rTerran, and it has a unique and nice role vs mutas.. and armored..

WTF?

I don't want fail goliaths with lazorz


Thors just suck against mass mutas with magic box and they're too slow for muta defense tbh.

I might quit sc2 or stay on WoL if this game is going to be about 5000 rpg-like spells on shiny big units.

I don't get it. Everybody complains that we don't have enough abilities (especially ones that promote micro) and that harassment/defensive options are too few are far between, but we get all of that and people are complaining about it?

No, you just have to micro your colossus. In BW you didn't let scourge land on your corsairs, which is probably infinitely harder than keeping colossus away from vipers. I doubt the range will be SUPER HUGE when they finish balancing, so if you micro your stalkers and colossus correctly you should be able to keep them safe.

But we won't know until release, will we?

Hmmmmm.... Looks likely many of these don't make it to the end... I also find removing units is strange, I'm not sold on this yet.

But who am I kidding, I'll buy it on release day anyways.

I just love the replicant, and I am terran player. Think of it in terms of having them ready, but not yet transformed. And you have like 6 of them. You can instant make 6 immortals, instant phoenix, instant high templar (can they archon warp?), in case you are able to replicate your own units. Kinda gives protosses additional production capabilites, as in that you need only 1 starport, and you can have a fleet instantly.
Else, I'd love to use the schredder, but I'm kinda worried on how practical it will be, if it isn't running, as long as your units are in range. If you can drop those, I'm finally seeing some solid high dps aoe for terran.

And I'm kinda scared of how good zerg can be/become with the new units. I mean Zergs can already break siege lines kinda easily and then take over the map in an instance. Just gotta hope, that the mech units are durable enough that it can't be just countered by mass roach.

Well the replicant can only replicate units that are in range, it can't just suddenly change into anything.
