I feel like the Protoss replicant should be a proper ground unit that's actually useful.
The new units are cool but they don't seem to make protoss more flexible in unit composition.
Just the same with more a semi-harass unit.

Argggh, lowering the range of the Battle Hellion makes it feel useless. I still think normal Hellions are easier to keep from dying just due to their mobility. HP is nice and all but at the pro level mobility > hp because micro is so good. I can't see Battle Hellions being used much at all, except for maybe in a heavy hellion harass into all-in attack with say marines and battle hellions.

Hellion mode for harass and micro, Firebat mode for bio support like in BW imo.


Yeah but why even combine for bio support. Bio relies heavily on kiting and mobility too, so why not just keep hellion as normal hellion? Why research the transform or use it if you have it? It doesn't add damage, just makes your hellions into a landed-viking type thing that is honestly easier to kill and harder to wield into optimal firing position. For an all-in or something where you HAVE to push forward, it seems good, but most battles are kiting and maneuvering and speed counts more than hp.

I agree with the people saying the text of the viper reads much more as a Corsair with detection than a defiler.

DisWeb was baller too so it's still powerful. (tho no as powerful)

When you have Recall as a spell in the Nexus, for every Nexus, I am not sure if you need that much mobility

Marines that cost gas and more minerals, so not too viable. Just steal Medivacs and your Zealots will live forever!

The Mothership was a bad idea. LET'S GIVE IT TO TERRAN!

Still really unsure how things are gonna play out, I like some of the changes.

So protoss lost two units and go three new ones? I was really hoping for a ground based harass unit that could kill workers instead of.. power them down or whatever is going on with that thing.

I hope the viper pull gets removed/changed, it looks really awkward.


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?


Good, the collossus is a catastrophy in game design and the reason that protoss meta game hasnt developed, fuck that unit.

I agree wholeheartedly, it must go in HotS. Also, have anyone seen a pattern in the voting? Majority love the Zerg units which is basically BW all over again, while new non BW units for Terran and Protoss gets dislike.


indeed, for the terran units there are only really 2 new units as one is pretty much a goliath which should have been used in the first place.

Starcraft 2 is starting to look like a C&C game, so much silly and so little of what made SC:BW amazing.
