More spells = More micro = Higher Skill to play.

Makes the game a lot more fun in my opinion.
SC:BW has a higher skill ceiling than SC2? SC 64 is where it's at brah.

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

.... You can attack it...

It's simple. The majority of the time it is the people who want to complain who post. The people who were complaining about lack of harassment/defensive options are now content and the people who didn't want new micro adding spells are now complaining.

Being able to split apart key units away from the armies is so imbalanced, having vipers will be fun

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.


indeed i also think zerg will dominate for a while but not because of being op or w/e but because they will finally be on par with the rest. this is when people will really have to learn how to play against zerg not the bs all ins that work every other game.

So you yet don't know that units have a leveling system?

Shredder = Terran's mid/late game Creep.

Instead of making your units faster, you slows enemies down (they have to attack it) and also give u vision and alerts all over the map.

I don't understand why corrupter is still in the game .. and they take out carrier. god damnnit


Probably because vikings would destroy broodlords too easy without them


and mutalisks are for what exactly?


I was being sarcastic, I play Terran LOL

They would have to figure out what turns into BL's though. Probably just change it to mutas, and make the morph cost an extra 50 minerals.

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.

maybe drop the schredder and set it up in the mineral line while you're doing something else on the other side of the map or what not (drop/push) ?

;o

Oh and I'm a Zerg player that's gonna be learning T and P anyways but Yeah. oo

Why does every unit have to have a retarded gimmick? Why can't we have units like the old dragoon, that had a simple concept, and was difficult to master. In the hands of a skilled player it was great, but was super clunky for noobs. A superbly designed unit, intentionally or not. I wish we had more units like that in SC2.
