God help us if Blizzard actually allows ultra charge and Viper grab into the released multiplayer product.

Is a default spell or you need a building to unlock it?

Nexus mass recall is such a horrendous idea. It is bad enough that he can warp in an entire round of units right when he needs it, now you finally get him out of position and oops, his bad macro means he can just recall everything and rofl stomp your attack.


Yep, and only 75 energy it's nothing. Toss can go to opponent's expansion snipe it fast and recall to safety. I imagine chrono boost going to be used like in first 7 minutes into the game and then only mass recall..
You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity

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

More spells = More micro = Higher Skill to play.

Makes the game a lot more fun in my opinion.


that isn't true at all. Spreading marines needs a lot of micro. throwing emps, storms or fungals with smartcasting is easy as fuck LOL

Yeah, but throwing good emps storm or fungals is hard as fuck. And maybe you can outmicro the viper's pull. Don't judge before you play it. And you might not remember that we lost a lot of abilities/cool spells between scbw and sc2. It's time to get a lot back.

Courtesy to playxp (translation via reddit)
Warhound is good at killing siege tanks, but has a short range
Ghost cloak is no longer an on/off skill
Reaper loses d8 charge attack
Reaper gains a HP recovery skill

Is the marauder still in the game? Why would they make another unit that counters seige tanks and keep the marauder. Do they want siege tanks to never be used, ever? Eh, who cares, as long as mech kills mech I'm happy. =)

Cloak no longer on/off - retarded. Why don't they actually address the actual nerfs it needs.

Reaper loses building attack for HP recovery 'skill'? What do they operate on themselves? Retarded.

'Viper inserts parasite into friendly units to make them detectors' i'm so happy happy happy cant wait to put my hands on the beta ;DD


Hm, I guess Overlords can have detection again then =]

I am curious about the tech tree though, are any of these 2 new units an evolution of the Hidralisk? Are they hive-tech?

Warhounds look like their made from trash metal -__-. Kinda silly looking. And The morph hellions also look a bit cartoonish.

Yeah Thor Hero!!!

Yeah, and it should be even harder. So hard that the best players in the world can't do it 100% of the time.

Anyone have any ideas what the transformed hellions extra "durability" is?

I'm thinking maybe it loses its light classification and gains a point of armor or something. I don't see how its health could get changed upon transforming.


Seems pretty worthless tbh. Hellions mobility was always more useful in terms of survivability than HP was. It'll only be useful if the transformation time is pretty much zero. Any sort of delay on that and it'll only be used in big set-piece battles where Hellions are already not really useful.


The speed is good, but if your about to get pushed, then transforming them to defend would be a good move. Also if you are going to push, it would be a good move there as well. The speed is important only when you are trying to slip by and raid and such. Not too important when your pushing or defending.

Burrow bane move??Oh dear blizzard,Thing about burrow banelings is that epicness when u hit bunch of marines with 2 well placed blings.This is maybe cool upgrade,but i dont think its gonna be good for watch.I mean we need some units witch reqire some nice micro,like shuttle+reaver or,sience w vs scurge.That was really fun to watch.

I like SC2,but the game feels so dumb when u see that collosus battles etc...Well we will see

Can someone confirm if a replicant needs to be in melee range OR in attack range of the unit?

I don't mean afraid to play it, but afraid the the changes?


strangely enough i agree w/ this. not too sure if i'll enjoy the game being a clusterfuck for another year or so


I was telling my wife earlier that I'm a little scared. When game development settles down maybe we'll have a good chance to really develop Sc2 strategy like BW was. Who knows, maybe these new units will make the game more dynamic and full of life? D:
